Notes:
The photo shows a knife from our current stock and may not be the exact one you'll receive. Each is handmade, so no two are exactly alike. Light scratches are normal on Watanabe (and Toyama) migaki finishes.
Want to see the actual knife before ordering? Email info@zahocho.com and we'll send photos or videos.
Handle is fitted by the maker and shipped as-is. We don't offer handle swaps.
