To differentiate between a good and an average knife, several factors play a crucial role, such as steel quality, edge precision, handle comfort, impeccable fit and finish, and attractive packaging. The Yahiko line of knives surpasses all of these criteria, setting it apart from the competition. The knife is made of top-tier Ginsan stainless steel, renowned for its longevity and performance, and features an eye-catching nashiji finish resembling pear skin, which is apparent from the photos. Each detail has been meticulously tended to, from the superb hand-engraving by Akane to the elegant calligraphy of the Yahiko logo on the packaging. We're excited to offer these exceptional knives to you!

Love this blade! It’s an absolute laser and cut through a slab of pork belly like it was warm butter. Highly recommended!
