The hand forged 180mm blade (just over 7") is made of Hitachi Kiigami Hagane Carbon steel (yellow steel) laminated with soft iron to form a superior kitchen edge. The handle is made of Japanese Magnolia wood with black resin bolster. Comes in original gift box - don't miss this closeout pricing, quantities are limited!
