These are unused vintage paring knives made in Japan for export from approximately the 1960s to 70s found in original dozen count boxes. 

These are unused but some show light oxidization on the surface. Nothing fancy here, the edges could be better, but at this price, you could do worse.

No first free sharpening on these.

This is a stainless steel knife. It should be hand washed and towel dried. Habitual dishwasher use will result in degraded edge and handle. Consistent long term exposure to moisture can lead to oxidation.

Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most western knives perform best with a medium finish starting around 1000 grit. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Steel honing rods work well with this knife.
