Additional Information: Used, a piece of the top of the blade fell off on one side, but it did not affect the use. It comes from a retired carpenter in the Kansai region of Japan. This saw is one of the main saws he uses. The blade is covered with a thin layer of dark oxide, which can only be formed through frequent use and careful storage. The saw had been kept unused after being "metate".
