Yoshiaki Fujiwara Mermaid-shaped Kiridashi knife Made in 1981 Old stock
This is a work of art by Yoshiaki Fujiwara that captivates collectors and enthusiasts around the world.
The beauty of the mermaid's shape, the detailed workmanship, and the painstaking hand-sanding process all add up to beauty everywhere you look. In addition, since it was designed not only for artistic purposes, but also as a tool, it fits comfortably in your hand and is surprisingly easy to hold, giving you a sense of the craftsman's spirit.
This work was produced in 1981, and from the style of the work, we can assume that it is the work of Kiyoshi Kato's father.
Although it has some rust due to age, it is a wonderful work that represents the essence of traditional Japanese blacksmithing technology and proves its history.
Also, since it is for ornamental use, the blade is crushed to prevent it from cutting, but if it is sharpened it can be used as a knife, so wouldn't it be stylish to use it as well?
