Just wondering if anyone can figure it out from the kanji.
I asked the owner and he said it was like "sa-burn" or something like that...he wasn't exactly sure.

dare say you'll need better pics if anyone is going to have any chance. the only thing i can kind of see is the top one but it just looks like '1/2'
Looks like the shinogi line has been entirely ground down as well....Might be the out of focus pic.... i hope....

How do you pronounce the name of this? Anybody have more info? is it common, considered good, ok, not good?
Is gin3 stainless?
Gin 3 is a Hitachi stainless that is used in many very good knives in a wide range of pricepoints (from Hiromoto's G3 series to the Tadatsuna inox series).
I think it is pronounce Sabun.
It is a name so it may be pronounced other way.
I am not familiar with this brand name.
Gin San Ko (Silver No. Three) as in Hitachi Silver Paper Number Three.
