The founder of Shilin knives, Guo He, invented this "eggplant-handled bamboo-leaf knife" during the Qing Dynasty. Its handle resembles an eggplant and the blade is shaped like a bamboo leaf. Because it was produced in Bazi Lan (an old name for Shilin), it was also called the "Bazi Lan knife." After Taiwan's liberation, it was renamed the "Shilin knife." Due to its sharpness and sturdiness, the Shilin knife has a wide range of uses, such as peeling bamboo, cutting vegetables, cutting fish and meat, picking betel nuts, and cutting fishing lines. It is very practical. Master Guo hopes that the traditional Shilin knife not only has practical value, but also artistic value for collection. Therefore, he started to delve deeper into the art of knife-making, striving to develop artistic knives for collection. Inside the "Guo He Ji" store, there are many precious collection knives, such as the Shilin knives, which have a total of 12 pieces. The largest is 6 inches, and the smallest is 8 fen. The smallest one is about the size of a little finger, which is quite special. In addition, samurai swords and hunting knives can be customized, and names can even be engraved on the knife handles, which can be collected by oneself or given as gifts. However, remember that according to customs, when giving a knife as a gift, you should ask the other person for one dollar, to indicate that it is not a sign of breaking off relations.
