Harukaze AS 210mm Kiritsuke. Harukaze means "windy spring" in Japanese. Made for CKTG exclusively from a medium-sized factory in Tosa, Japan, this knife combines excellent core steel (Aogami Super) with stainless cladding and a very nice rosewood oval handle and pakka wood ferrule. The knives are finished with a beautiful kanji engraving. We predict these should be a big hit with our customers looking for an excellent knife at a good price.

Slightly handle light for my preference is honestly the worst I can say about this knife. This has quickly become my main knife. I don't even pull my takeda out of the box anymore. I would put this next to any shun or mass produced quality Japanese knife with a better name and higher price.
