This series is made from Shirogami 2 steel laminated in soft iron forged by Master Satoshi Nakagawa. The blade is sharpened by Master Shigehiro Kasahara in Sakai Japan. The blades are sharpened thin with convex sides. The So Bokashi Kasumi finish is executed with a special hinoki wheel that creates a foggy finish and is personal to Sakai craftsmen. The spine and choil are polished very nicely. Fitted with ebony wood handle and buffalo horn ferrule.
Please note that due to the handmade nature, the handle color and shape may be slightly different than the one pictured in the photo.
