Trying to find the name of my Japanese knife, plz help, pictures inside!

Hi guys!

I have forgotten the name and brand of my knife. I wonder if anyone here would be able to recognize it from pictures of the knife and the box it comes in.

Thanks in advance,
Nils

Different kanji, but it looks a lot like the Inazuma from JCK

Makers can sell knives to multiple brands then the brands mark the name in, so they could be the same maker.

I haven't seen such kanji before, but the knife iself reminds me of Inazuma series from JCK

oh I'm a slowpoke

Is that a crack on the second picture? I can't see it on the top picture.

It's an OEM blade offered by literally dozens of brands.

That's a Tsubaya knife. It says "kappabashi [logo] tsubaya". Good choice my tsubaya yanagi is beautiful
