<p>The Lacquered Magnolia Wooden Blade Protector is brush coated with a layer of non-toxic lacquer made from organic tree saps in Japan. The lacquer coating provides resistance to unwanted odor, stain, and chips, all the while highlighting the beauty of the wood grain with exquisite effect. Japanese Magnolia wood (Ho-no-ki), is often used to make Saya covers for traditional and Western-style knives. This is because it is soft, moisture-resistant, and contains no strong resins that might cause corrosion in carbon steel. For safety, a peg is used to keep the blade and sheath in place. </p> <p>SAYA 180mm (7IN) : 1.77"W x 0.09"H (45mm x 2.5mm)</p> <p>SAYA 210mm (8.25IN) : 1.85"W x 0.09"H (47mm x 2.5mm)</p> <p>SAYA 240mm (9.5IN) : 1.96"W x 0.09"H (50mm x 2.5mm)</p> <p>SAYA 270mm (10.5IN) : 2.16"W x 0.09"H (55mm x 2.5mm)</p> <p>SAYA 300mm (11.8 IN) :2.32"W x 0.09"H (59mm x 2.5mm)</p> <p>*Please note that we recommend drying the knife before placing it into the Saya. </p> <p><b>This Saya Cover is made only for Yoshihiro Knife.
