Seems like SK steel quite hard. Not as crisp or alloyed as Takahashi hamono. Doesn't bite hair as easily as white and blue steels. Kind of a stale tough feel while sharpening. Thinnest knife tip I've had. Laser grind and ghosts through produce. Right bias. Scratch marks, bending stick marks, and errant sharpening from me. There seems to be a lacquer on the blade still. Tang stands proud of scales at bottom of handle. Straigtened.
