JNS Wakui Honytaki Gyuto 240mm

Forged by Toshihiro Wakui from Sanjo Niigata send to JNS for Sharpening and Polishing 

It is Super rare that Wakui do Honyaki knives in fact you will not find any in other shops, he makes only couple a year for me 

So I can sharpen them on 2 big horizontal wheels, that takes a lot of time as Honyaki blades is extra hard and have no cladding 

This one is made out of blue 2 steel and exseptionaly hard ! 

Choil and spine is very nicely rounded 

Kanji is on the Tang 

You get the knife that is in the picture !

All knives JNS cary is handmade and made one by one, so they can vary in size and thickness. Unevenness in finish can occur.
