Thank you for looking.
This item has been stored in the back of a shelf for many years. I am not knowledgeable about shakuhachi, but my friend said it had a good tone when they played it (I cannot produce sound myself).
The dimensions are approximately shaku roku (a traditional length measurement).
It has a Hotaru Dou (螢童) brand mark.
The mouthpiece appears to be made of buffalo horn and, based on its shape, seems to be in the Tozan style. However, this part is not made of bamboo but rather a hard wooden material. If this has significance, it may add value, but it's an unusual shape not commonly seen. Also, there is a crack of about 3cm (see photo 9), which I believe is not a problem, but I wanted to mention it.
Daily Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals. For mesh areas, use diluted mild detergent and a soft brush.
Drying: Air dry in a cool, shaded place after cleaning. Avoid direct sunlight or high heat, which can cause fading and glue deterioration.
Storage: Stuff with paper to maintain shape when not in use. Store in a dry, ventilated area to prevent mold. Rotate between multiple pairs to extend lifespan.
Usage Notes: Designed for basketball. Not recommended for hiking, long-distance running, or other specialized sports where different performance features are required.
