From Tanaka Yoshikazu in Sakai this amazing white 1 steel blade ! Carbon Clad 

This time they are finished by Ajioka Hamono with wide bevel ground, with slight hallow grind on the main bevel S grind 

Make it 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 White 1 on the Tang, so knife can be polished without loosing Kanji
