正本 玉青鋼誂鏡面仕上
Loved and admired by collectors, Masamoto’s highest quality yanagi knife is entirely handcrafted from a single piece of blue carbon steel #2. Each piece is embellished with an ebony handle, a water buffalo horn bolster, and a silver ring. Honyaki knives made of blue steel are less brittle and have a longer edge retention.

For Left-Handed Customer
