Forged and sharpened all by hand from one of the most esteemed brands in Japan, Iwasaki. The Ura was carved by a sen (basically a drawknife for metal) which is tedious and time consuming, but allows for exceptional precision. The heat treatment from Iwasaki is deservedly legendary. This is a metallurgical masterpiece. 

Includes a wooden box,

A traditional Japanese marking tool, often used in woodworking. It has a single bevel construction like traditional Japanese kitchen knives, meaning it can get extremely sharp, but needs to be sharpened differently than double bevel knives. The blade can be used in other applications than woodworking, but care must be taken to not damage the very sharp but brittle edge.

Care Advisement: Stainless
This blade is stainless steel. While it is resistant to stains and corrosion, “stain-less” does not mean “stain-proof.” Care must still be taken to keep the blade dry when not in use. Wipe dry after each use and ideally between preparing different products, especially when using acidic and salty products. Hand wash and dry only. Store away from liquids and open windows. Keep the blade covered when storing or traveling. Use only on appropriate cutting surfaces such as softer woods and plastic.
