<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wlwhittier, post: 8533921, member: 76316&quot;]It is painfully unfortunate that so much of the shibayama &#039;jewelry&#039; is missing, especially as the signature chip remains...&#039;tho I doubt it can be attributed.</p><p>This is 16 3/4&quot; long, ~1 1/8&quot; wide; the handle area is ~3/16&quot; thick, the blade tapers from ~0.160&quot; to ~0.100&quot; near the tip along the central spine, with both edges quite thin, &#039;tho not sharp. The blade is translucent, as the last pic shows.</p><p>Now that I know these are not page-turners, I&#039;ll scour a few squirrel-holes for another couple of them...but they&#039;ll be quite plain; simple functional tools, without any embellishment save the craft in their fashion. Thanks for lookin&#039;!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]427971[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]427972[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]427973[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]427974[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]427975[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]427976[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]427977[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
