Made in Japan exclusively for Chef Knives To Go, this line of Kohetsu knives is an excellent deal. They are made with high quality Hitachi Blue #2 steel which is then heat treated and given a "nashiji" or "pear skin" finish. They are then clad in stainless steel to protect the steel from rust. Finished with a practical and strong handle, these knives will last you a lifetime. Please note we recently upgraded the handle to a much nicer walnut octagonal with black pakka wood ferrule.Brand: Kohetsu
