Specifications
Handforged in Sanjo, Japan by Kisuke Manaka. This 215mm kiritsuke gyuto has an Aogami#1 core steel, clad in a hand-laminated damascus of Aogami #2 and soft iron, forged in-house. The damascus is built from scratch -- not from pre-laminated billet like most. The result is a damascus unique to the ENN line.
This k-tip gyuto has been refinished on a progression of synthetic and natural stones -- no loose abrasives, sandpapers, or diamond pastes used. The blade has a frosty kasumi. Refinished with permission from Manaka-san.

Why is the blade length different from the displayed size? The size in the product title is a nominal reference used by knife makers. The actual blade can be slightly longer or shorter due to handcrafting and traditional sizing. Each product page lists the exact measured length.
