This knife is a rare find because it is discontinued. Don't hesitate on rare high-quality Japanese cutlery.
The GW Series is a perfect example of the Japanese design philosophy shibui, a balance of simplicity and complexity. While the GW series is not adorned with decorative elements such as hand-hammered tsuchimeor a Damascus finish, a simple elegance creates a powerful appearance. The 3-layer blade with a Ginsan(silver-3) core is thin, strong, and precise; and the octagonal walnut handle provides a comfortable grip.
Hand engraved with the Kikuichi chrysanthemum logo.
