This knife is also referred to as a “Usudeba,” but since it is double-edged, we’ll categorize it as a Wa-Santoku knife here.
With a blade thickness of 6mm, it is a robust knife. While it could be considered a Usudeba, some Deba knives indeed have similar thickness. The black-forged finish contrasts beautifully with the clean silver of the steel on the cutting edge, highlighting the quality of this piece.
The knife has been sharpened, so it cuts well and is ready to use immediately. Please handle it with care when unpacking. The price includes the sharpening fee.
This knife features the engravings "手打" (Hand-forged) and "青入" (Aogami). The handle is stamped with "井浦特撰" (Iura Tokusen).
SHARPENED by a Japanese Sharpener. Razor sharp. The sharpener is in Kyoto, the traditional city in Japan as you know. You can use without maintenance. You don't need to pay maintenance costs after receiving. If any, please feel free to ask, English available.
