Got this little knife from KnifeJapan, really nice Blue #1 steel, thinned by me and performs nicely. The tip is blunt on arrival, not sure if it is intentional or damaged in transit but doesn't affect performence either way. Just realized for a knife this size I would prefer a stainless one so it's on sale here, bought for $154, sell for $135.
