Another Great Blacksmith from Sanjo, Niigata

Noborikoi Kanji on backside is made only for JNS 

With Better Fit and Finish and his best heat-tread and steel he loves to use most ! 

I simply ask the maker to make what he thinks is his best performance ! 

75 years old works alone in his shop where he do all work by him self ! 

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