Used Takohiki 230mm high carbon steel Blade Knife
It is 230mm from the tip to the machi (220mm from the tip to the heel). We have got lots of used knives last a couple months ago. This piece is one of them. It has water buffalo ferrule on the handle, and I am not sure what kind of the steel, but it looks probably higher grade professional knife with blue 2 steel or white 2 steel. It has engraved brand name and the other information on the front and back, but they have almost gone, so I cannot read it. I already sharpened and removed rust as much as I could. It is ready to use it.
It should be a very old knife, and I guess it might be more than 30 years old.
