Japanese Magnolia wood(Ho-no-ki), is often used to make saya covers for traditional and Western-style knives. Magnolia wood is the perfect protection for knives; it is soft, moisture-resistant and contains no strong resins that might cause corrosion in carbon steel. For safety, a pin is used to keep the blade and sheath in place. * Please be noted that we recommend to put a knife into the Saya after the blade of the knife becomes dry. Made in Japan
