CHOOSE THE TOOL FOR YOUR WORK
Choose a defined symmetrical blade and separate working dimensions
KAKURI’s 47501 gives a concrete reason to choose it for a shared bench or a particular hand preference: the seller explicitly describes a symmetrical blade usable by both right- and left-handed users. It is intended for straight cuts, curves and skiving rather than guiding a fixed-width strap through a machine.
The blade is identified as Japanese high-speed steel, with a stated width of 30 mm (1.18 in). Overall length is 6 in. The handle is smoked oak and a leather blade cover is supplied, so blade width, full length and storage are all separately described.
The seller specifies hand washing but provides no detailed washing or sharpening instructions. Compare TLKKUE when a 36 mm flat format is your priority, or Bzcovac for the forged knife/sheath offer with its separate oiling instruction. A symmetrical blade is a geometry choice, not a promise of effortless cutting through every leather.
