Can anyone post the kanji for left handed? As in"left handed yanagiba" or "left handed single bevel"? Many thanks!

"left handed"=左用
"yanagiba"=柳刃庖丁 or 柳刃
"single bevel"=片刃

Here's another rakuten address-

Link not working for me.

It's missing the .com in the URL. http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/chokuhan/

My apologies for posting a non-functioning address. The one posted worked (and still does) on my mac. The .com addition is probably the correction needed but that needs to be established by working on a computer on which the first version wouldn’t run. The store name “chokuhan” came from the site where I found the zakuris but when accessing the store site it’s labeled “agrifarmKOCHI”. The two names are interchangeable as well as I can tell and running the address with the store name switched works. Adding “kitchen knives” to the address (...store/agrifarm-kochi/kitchen knives/ ) also works and places you in the store directory just as if you had done the steps to get there via the sidebar. Adding this produced a strange result. The URL changed to- agrifarmKOCHI| Rakuten Global Market:kitchen knives and this also seems to work as an address.

I have used this lexicon extensively for shopping on Yahoo Japan auctions and Japan stores.

Thread needs to be updated. Can we even shop on Rakuten anymore?

I think they stopped doing global distribution a few years ago

Reply to old post, but I can only see numbers and such in place of kanji in the original reply so thought maybe I'll recompile the basics for that.

Left 左 hand 手

Add hiragana の for some extra magic

Deba 出刃, yanagiba 柳刃

knife 包丁

左手の　出刃包丁 gave spot on results with Google image search.

Replace deba with your knife of choice.
