"OJIKA" Mowing Sickle for Right Hander, Thin Blade, 165mm-195mm

★★ Two HONMAMON Stars (link)

■Material: Cutting blade, blue paper No. 2

■Blade shape: Single-edged (for right-handed people)

■ Blade thickness: Thin blade

■ Manufacturing: Made in Japan

■ Use: Mowing soft grass

■Features:
This is the finest handmade sickle, a local industry in Banshu Ono.
After fire-forging with a hammer, it is heat-treated, sharpened, and hand-threaded with iron.
The material is a composite material, but 30 processes are carried out by hand using skilled techniques.
*Composite material: Steel material in which base metal and steel are bonded with a rolling roll.
The blade is repeatedly hammered and stretched with a hammer, which removes impurities and breaks down the structure, resulting in a tough and hard sickle.
The heat treatment and sharpening are also done with skilled techniques, and it is completely different from the machine-made sickles that are automatically sharpened by pressings that are mainstream at mass retailers.
Please try this handmade sickle, a "real thing" that brings together the traditional techniques of Banshu Ono.

■Caution:
As these are handmade products, there may be individual differences in size.
The blade is designed for soft grass, so if used on hard grass or wood, the blade may chip.
As it is made of steel, it is prone to rust, so after use, wipe off any moisture and apply blade oil before storing.
