This vintage Katana letter opener made in Japan circa 1950s-60s, likely in Seki City. The quality is excellent and the parts are made of metal. It features a polished stainless steel blade metal handle styled to rayskin, with a brass tone metal sheath. Acquired from a closed distributor in Seki, Japan who had many original factory sample prototypes. The wood upright portion could be glued to the base to provide a more sturdy support.
