ID Japanese plane iron - RickW - 04-17-2017
I recently bought a bunch of plane irons from a fellow tool collector.Among the usual Stanley and other bench plane irons was a Japanese plane iron. Since I don't know much about Japanese planes, I though I'd ask here to see if anyone recognized it.
Here are the photos:

It measures 60mm wide by 108mm long.
I'd also like to know what quality it is, if anybody recognizes it.
Thanks,
