Double bevel Sakimaru made with Hitachi Blue #2 steel laminated in soft iron.
Grinding has been done without sakimawashi/yokote to enable the edge to transition seamlessly all the way to the tip.
A thin and narrow blade with a curved profile, granting the user a very comfortable slicing motion with minimal wrist movement - especially noticeable for vertical cuts.
A striking blade with a lovely finish, paired with great quality Ebony.
