Utility knife forged from san mai, which has a tough high carbon core and softer steel cladding on the outside. This one is slightly more beefy behind the edge than my normal knife, so while it’s not going to be the most slicy knife it’s going to require very little maintenance to keep the edge in good condition.
Steel: Hitachi White Paper #2
Size: 3 3/4” blade / 8 1/4” overall / 1” @ heel
Handle: Charred White Oak
Weight: 35g / 1.2 oz
Blade finish: forced patina
Saya: White Oak
