・Western Origin: This knife features a long blade and pointed tip, which makes it ideal for cutting large ingredients.
・Exquisite Craftsmanship: Crafted with Japan's renowned "Kasumi Nagashi" technique, alternating high-carbon and low-carbon stainless steel layers create a mesmerizing and unique pattern, adding a touch of art to your kitchen.
・Core Material: VG10 steel is used for its sharp cutting edge and durable blade.
