The FC61 fine carbide steel core gives the knife exceptional initial sharpness and cutting edge retention, embedded in 48 layers of steel that create each knife's unique Damascus design. The symmetrical cutting edge is Honbazuke-honed through a three-stage grinding, sharpening and polishing process for razor-like sharpness. The entire length of the edge can be used to cut as there is no finger guard. The join between handle and bolster is completely smooth, helping to prevent calluses and providing a comfortable grip. The ergonomically shaped black Pakka wood handle features a striking mosaic pin and end-cap. Maintain and sharpen using whetstones. Avoid cutting on glass, ceramic or stone boards. Hand wash only.
