The Sakai Takayuki Nata White #1 150mm is a traditional Japanese chopping tool built for outdoor utility and brush clearing. Made in Sakai, Japan by Aoki Hamono, this old-style nata is designed for cutting through weeds, vines, small branches, and light saplings with authority. The White #1 carbon steel core takes a very sharp edge and offers a crisp, responsive cutting feel that suits this type of work.
The iron cladding and kurouchi finish give it a rugged, work-ready appearance that matches its purpose. Its substantial weight adds chopping power, while the burned chestnut handle provides a secure, comfortable grip with classic Japanese character. This is a practical, authentic field tool built for real use and dependable performance.
Care Instructions: Hand wash only and dry immediately after use. This tool is made from reactive carbon steel and iron cladding and will rust if left wet. Apply a light coat of oil before storage if needed. Do not leave it outdoors or in damp conditions. Avoid striking rocks, metal, or very hard seasoned wood to protect the edge.
