Daovua is a small blacksmith shop in Vietnam and they have been hard at work building a factory to 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 better heat treatment using their leaf spring steel. These knives take longer to make with better finish and nicer handles. We think they're a big step up.
