Ho wood is the perfect protection for knives; it is soft, moisture-resistant and contains no strong resins that might cause corrosion in carbon steel. The ho-no-ki of Korin's saya covers is grown in northern Japan, where the cold climate encourages the growth of densely-grained wood that will not warp.
