This Yusaku Blue #2 Nashiji Funayuki/Gyuto 210mm is made from Blue #2 steel laminated with soft iron. Kousuke uses the san-mai method and sand-blasts the blade face to leave a nashiji (pear skin) finish. The grind is very well realized and quite sophisticated. It is thin behind the edge and has an excellent profile that will match most kinds of cutting styles.
These are high-value knives that belie their keen price. The overall package of well-executed grinds, good fit and finish, and an all-purpose design add up to a knife that will appeal to many users, both professional and home-based.Brand: Yusaku
