This 21mm Unryu kiridashi is a handcrafted Japanese knife forged by a specialist in traditional planes. Its blade is made from old Aogami #1 steel, charcoal-reduced during the Showa era, a material particularly sought after for its cutting quality and remarkable edge retention.
Forge-welded onto a refined iron body and then hand-hammered, the blade reveals an elegant wood grain pattern. Designed for precision marking, fine carving, and woodworking, this kiridashi offers a clean, precise, and durable cut. An exceptional tool for artisans and collectors who appreciate traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
