Features:
This pruning sickle has been forged and fire-forged with the utmost care by one of the most skilled sickle blacksmiths in Tosa, Kochi.
It is a carefully crafted sickle created using highly skilled techniques that do not allow for compromise.
By forging and fire-forging blue paper steel and extremely soft iron, it has a hard and resilient blade.
The carefully crafted blade allows you to experience the ultimate sharpness.
Please try this “HONMAMON” handmade sickle, the culmination of traditional techniques that have been cultivated and handed down as a local industry.

It is not a composite material (steel material made by joining base steel and steel using rolling rolls at a factory).

The sickle is repeatedly struck with a hammer, stretched, and fire-forged to remove impurities, break down the structure, and produce a tough, hard steel.

Caution:
Since the knife is made of steel which rusts easily, after use wipe off any moisture and apply knife oil before storing.
