Made in Sakai, the home of blades, This is a genuine Sakai-forged blade, a high-quality yanagiba knife. Brand new, unused. Blade length: 270mm (9 inches) Made with high-quality hagane (white steel No. 2) with few impurities and forged iron, carefully combined using Sakai's unique, traditional forging techniques. The metal structure is dense and uniform, resulting in a high-hardness hagane-forged sashimi knife. The blade is sharpened by Sakai's blade craftsmen, including back-honing, resulting in a truly sharp edge. The sharpness is outstanding! Easy to resharpen, and can be used repeatedly after sharpening. The area below the bolster is also beautifully polished, gentle on the fingers. This high-quality sashimi knife is recommended for professionals, with attention to detail! Shipping is free. Price is firm. Don't miss this opportunity! Thank you.
