Additional Information: Used. It came from a retired carpenter in Tokyo. The wooden body was replaced about 15 years ago and hadn't been used since (Needs to be set up again). As for why he replaced the wooden body of this old blade, the carpenter told me it was because the blade was of very good quality. Most traditional carpenters cherish their tools and will use them until they are no longer usable.
