Notice Yanagiba Shirogami-1(WS#1) Mizu Honyaki Mono Steel 330mm Ebony Handle has zero inventory and cannot be added to the cart

This is a work that you should definitely add to your knife collection.

The late traditional craftsman: Tatsuo Ikeda (brother of Yoshikazu Ikeda)'s

Mizuhonyaki, with the engraving of Masayuki's work. "

Like an old knife, the blade is wider and thicker than the modern Yanagiba blade.

This knife has a profound feeling and presence and is masculine.

The blade was forged at least 10 years ago, and the sharpened finish is

new in 2019.

I have confirmed both Tatsuo's actual knives.
The two knives were almost the same and there was no difference.
The only difference is the location of the Tatsuo's pen name stamp.
One is the tang on the front side of the knife. One is the tang on
the back of the knife.

Remarks: You can see evidence that the knife has been forged with mud.
However, the sharpener does not sharpen in a way that makes Hamon stand out.
The reason is that this knife was created for users who don't like Hamon.
