Daovua has been hard at work building a factory so they can improve the quality of their blades. They've also decided to make a new line of knives with more classic Japanese shapes with flatter profiles, improved sharpness, and upgraded steel. These knives are taking them longer to make with a better finish and nicer handles. We think they're a big step up.
Weight: 4.0 oz/ 114g
Blade Length: 165mm
Overall Length: 305mm
Spine Thickness at Heel: 1.8mm
Blade Height at Heel: 46.8mm

I bought this to learn and practice carbon knife care and maintenance. It’s a fairly light knife, maybe a little lighter than I’d have preferred. The blade edge was off a tiny bit, but still very capable out of the box. A quick touch up and it’s cutting very well. For the price, it’s a really solid knife and once I’m much more comfortable with carbon care, I’ll graduate to the blue #2 gyuto I bought at the same time and pass this on to someone who might like to give carbon a try.
