Product Description

The flowing pattern in hand-forged layered steel can be mesmerizing but the advantages of suminagashi (sometimes called Damascus Steel) extend well beyond its beauty. To create these exquisite sashimi knives, craftsmen join carbon steel with soft iron in the kasumi method, then pound and fold the steel eight times on each side. This is a lengthy process, taking as long as needed to make eight kasumi knives, but the end result is a stunning 16-layer blade with the strength and flexibility of a honyaki knife. Style: Kensaki Yanagi, Steel Type: Ao-ko Suminagashi, Saya Cover: Wooden Saya Cover, Blade: Single-Edged, Handle Material: Ebony Handle, Bolster Material: Water Buffalo Horn with Silver Ring, Hardness Rockwell C scale: 62. Available Size: 11.7".
