It is believed to be a work by Mosaku dating back to the 1990s or earlier. Due to long-term storage, some rust had developed near the blade tip, which I have carefully sharpened. Both the bevel and the ura have been honed up to #1000 grit. Based on the steel's feedback on the stones during sharpening, I believe it is Shirogami #2, with quite good overall quality.  In addition, the tip of this knife is forged using the semaki (背巻き) technique.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKorehisa (是久) is believed to have been one of the proprietary brands distributed by the wholesaler Morihei; plane blades bearing the Korehisa mark appear in \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 170, 255);\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.morihei.co.jp\/?pid=80440652\" style=\"color: rgb(0, 170, 255);\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMorihei’s product catalog \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003edating back to the Showa 30s (circa 1955–1964).\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditionally, this knife comes housed in a meticulously crafted wooden box, whose craftsmanship far surpasses typical contemporary wooden storage boxes.
