Kasumitogi is another single bevel traditional series hand forged in the sword making tradition from two pieces of steel. The slightly softer white #3 carbon steel edge is easier to sharpen and more forgiving for chefs who have not mastered their sharpening technique, but will not hold an edge as long as a higher-grade steel.
Hand engraved with the Kikuichi chrysanthemum logo.
