Almost perfect, handle should be sealed
I really like this knife. It’s kinda of a hybrid between a Nakiri and at santoku. This comes to more of a point than a traditional Nakiri making it more versatile. There is also a little slope that allows for rocking. The steel is excellent. I have a few carbon steel knives and while this is more difficult to sharpen the blade doesn’t need to be constantly wiped down. The reason I didn’t give 5 stars is that the handle is not finished/sealed. I would have preferred a finished wood like they do with the black and lower models. This just adds to the maintenance. When one has many knives as I do, I want as little maintenance as possible. If all my knives needed care in the handle it would drive me crazy. As a result I have bought artisanal and black lines that also has SG2 steel but doesn’t need the same level of maintenance.

Superb Japanese Knife
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thrilled to have an artisan Japanese vegetable knife for my home cooking projects. I found it on the website back in stock on the very day my late disabled brother Tim’s successful guardianship case was concluded. I will use it often in his memory and pass it along to our daughters some day.
