It is a smaller version of a YANAGIBA knife, also known as a horse mackerel splitting knife or a shellfish splitting knife, so it is easy to use for detailed work.

Do not use in a dishwasher or dryer.

The line is proof of handcraftsmanship. 

The boundary between the high-carbon steel and the soft iron is known as the line. On rare occasions, a faint gap may be visible along this line—a testament to the forging process and the skill of the blacksmith who shaped the blade.

As each item is handcrafted, the presence or absence of gaps may vary from piece to piece. We kindly ask for your understanding and recommend this product only to those who appreciate such characteristics.
