Knife Handle (Kozuka) with Blade
Black handle with gold designs, made of wood or similar material, with a small metal blade. The handle is rectangular and flat with rounded edges, and the gold designs appear to be leaves or vines. The blade is thin and narrow, made of metal with visible signs of aging or wear, and appears to be attached to the handle. The background is a light gray color, providing contrast to the darker handle and blade. The overall design suggests a traditional Japanese knife handle, known as a Kozuka.
