What makes this a “collaboration” knife? I thought all saika were either Keijiro or Itsuo, not a collaborative effort… just curious.
 
Is this Suisin Hayate?

Any Doi Signature Stamp on Hira or at the tang ?

Thanks

This one is saika, a lower level line than hayate with white 3 steel. Hayate were numbered in series. There were also hayate “light” versions that didn’t pass muster for top grade and sold for cheaper.
