Knife Handle (Kozuka) with Blade
The image depicts a knife with a brown handle and a silver blade. The handle is on the left and features a loop at the end. The handle is constructed from woven or braided material, possibly wood or plant fibers, and has a darker brown color. The handle then tapers and transforms into a form with protrusions. The blade is positioned on the right and exhibits a silver color with a pointed tip. The blade's surface features a subtle pattern and appears weathered, showing visible signs of wear. The blade and handle are joined by a decorative piece with a primarily gold color. The background of the image is a plain light gray color. The knife, titled "Knife Handle (Kozuka) with Blade," is by an unspecified artist.
