Care Guide
I'm selling this because I have too many and need to declutter.
This is a 9-sun hon-yaki yanagiba .
I purchased it as deadstock from several decades ago.
The handle has been replaced with ebony.
I've used it for about 2 years, so there is some wear from sharpening, but the ura (back) and shinogi (ridge) are still solid, and I believe it can be used for a long time to come.
It has a wavy hamon (temper line), and the blurred transition at the edge of the ura hamon suggests it might be a mizuyaki (water-quenched).
The steel type is unknown, but it sharpens easily, so I suspect it might be Shirogami #2 (White Paper Steel #2).
The cutting edge and edge bevel have been finished with natural whetstones.
length: Approximately 9 sun (just under 27cm) from the heel
thickness: Approximately 4.1mm at the heel, tapering to approximately 2.3mm near the end of the shinogi at the tip.
width: Approximately 32mm near the heel.

Daily Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals. For mesh areas, use diluted mild detergent and a soft brush.
Drying: Air dry in a cool, shaded place after cleaning. Avoid direct sunlight or high heat, which can cause fading and glue deterioration.
Storage: Stuff with paper to maintain shape when not in use. Store in a dry, ventilated area to prevent mold. Rotate between multiple pairs to extend lifespan.
Usage Notes: Designed for basketball. Not recommended for hiking, long-distance running, or other specialized sports where different performance features are required.
