Okubo Kajiya Kiridashi 'C' 50mm

We offer five Okubo Kajiya kiridashi for your consideration, imaginatively labelled A through E. Utilitarian identifiers for items of great utility.

When assembling this selection the question naturally came to mind, what is each for? Given Japan's impressively deep and specialized cutting culture, surely in our hard-selling product description we can refer to a specific use or strength? Kirigami? Takezaiku? Occasional field surgery?

Not really, it seems. A purchase is usually made on the basis of which one looks the best. Or which one looks the best for the task you have in mind. Which one looks to be the right size. Price. We await your decision. 

Please bear in mind that with Okubo san's free-forging ways the measures below will vary slightly in any direction.
