Hi,
I'm new to the world of J-knives and have spent the better part of the last month reading various posts on this forum. I'm currently looking at a Sakai Takayuki Tokujo single bevel yanagiba and just wanted to get an idea about the general quality of this line of knives/what to expect/value proposition before pulling the trigger. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but it's a White #2 core with soft iron clad, correct?
I've searched the forum, and can't seem to find much in the way except for a few BST posts. The knife I'm looking at is described as being forged by Kenji Togashi and finished by Yukinori Oda. Searching those names on the forum seem to yield pretty positive feedback, but it seems that they are usually linked to a more prestigious line (Suisin, Byakko, etc.). So, feedback on the Tokujo line from Sakai Takayuki anyone?
Thanks!
