It is very hard to take photos of very polished blades so Video Below product description

 

From Tanaka Yoshikazu in Sakai this amazing Blue 1 steel blade ! 

Heat-treat and sharpness this knives get is amazing, with this super clean steel it is super easy to sharpen it up on Natural stones. 

It is finished to my specifications with Sanjo like finish parallel scratches for easy maintains and super easy to use finger stones on it

Choil and spine is rounded 

It is also super thin behind the edge ! This kind of super thin knives i think is worth having around your knife setup, as it can do some things that heavier knife like Kato or shigefusa cant 

Profile is also different on this one, Higher at the heal but still have very usable tip 

It only have Stamp of the maker Tanaka Yoshikazu and Steel Blue 1
