A hand-forged 240mm gyuto by Kisuke Manaka. This exceptional knife features a core steel of shirogami#2, with a distinguished tsuchime (hammered) finish. Its soft iron cladding enhances the full carbon experience. Complementing the blade is an exquisite quince burl wood western handle, complete with a brass bolster. While being thin behind the edge, it maintains a robust feel without feeling fragile. With its well-balanced weight and heft, this knife promises a delightful experience, particularly suited for those seeking non-laser knives.
