This high-quality knife I believe was made in Japan and from what I can tell is no longer produced

Men Conducting Business, Mid-Late 1800s' Wayne B. Blouch, PA Colored Ink Folk Art Drawing scrapbook covers The bowl is is markedThis drawing, and several others I am listing, came from a portfolio of drawings by Pennsylvania folk outsider artist Wayne B. Blouch of Lancaster, PA, purchased from the estate of art professor & art historian Jill McKeever Furst, who taught at Moore College of Art & Design in Philadelphia, PA for over 10 years, which may be when she acquired them. There is not much out there about Blouch except a few sales of work at auction (Garth's; Pook & Pook),
