Kikuichi Kamagata Usuba 7.0” Japanes Chef Knife. Condition is "New". Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.Include wooden sheath.
This is a handmade Japanese butcher knife. Made in Japan with #3 white steel, high carbon steel blade Kasumi style. Kasumi is a method of sandwiching a piece of hardened cutting steel with a softer steel jacket that protects the cutting steel and allows for more impact and torsional stress relief by helping to absorb those stresses.
High carbon makes this knife susceptible to damage by prolonged water contact. The steel will begin to form a patina with use and should be expected. Please oil the knife when not in use.
This usuba shape is also known as Tokyo style.
