@Cutty Sharp - The knife was just used to that point of handle deformation. Isn't that awesome? I find it amazing how well maintained it is, even if its 100 years old!
Isn't that cool? Look how thin they are. I've seen knives like that before, apparently used consistently for 20 years if you can believe. I'm curious why the one handle, second from the left, has become hour-glass shaped. I also like how normal they look, with the kanji on the blades same as today, and dark ferrules with lighter wood handles. Classic and elegant.
The handle is worn down from scrubbing it clean. Looks like those have been sharpened once or twice..
