This knife rocks on all counts. Love the Urushi handle, sealed blade where it meets handle really well. Nice Kurouchi finish, sharp ootb. Cut through everything I tried it on without fail smooth, clean with no wedging on veggies, meat I used it on. Great balance, performs well above price point. Got it in 4 days as usual. Thanks again CKTG, you guys are top notch.
