A while back I decided to collect higher-end knives that represent the art of Japanese knife making. Jon Broida has been extremely helpful not only in explaining the labyrinthine industry of Japanese knife making but showing me things I would not have found on my own. This knife is one of those. It has a custom lacquered handle and saya as well as one of the coolest hamons I have ever seen. I will let the pics speak for themselves. Seldom do you find a piece of art that can also help make dinner.
