Selling one of my knives, it's a Sakai Takayuki Tokujo Deba 180mm (7.1") with saya that's barely used, you can tell by how long it still is. Great knife only sharpened a few time and used a few time. Bought too many knife and selling it cheap because i barely use them now and need the money for something else . Took great care of it still very shinny.
The Tokujo line is Sakai Takayukis best selling line of traditional hand forged knives. Created in the Kasumi method of joining a soft iron jacket with carbon steel, this line goes through additional tempering, cooling and hammering steps to ensure maximum sharpness and blade strength. These knives are forged from a Yasuki white number two steel and the edges are created completely by hand, using a combination of wheels and sharpening stones. The U shaped magnolia handles and water buffalo bolsters are easy to grip and are comfortable in the hand, even through long hours of use.
