This is an awesome knife and one of my favorites. It’s remarkably different from Takada’s other work (Suiboku, Fujiyama FT) but has all of the things that make his work so good. Crazy food release with this and that famous Hitohira finish with Tahei handle.

Yoshikazu Tanaka’s Blue 1 needs no introduction. Top 3 heat treats in the world. Plus nobody brings out Tanaka’s cladding as well as Mitsuaki Takada. He takes a different approach to the Kasumi and I think he sandblasts producing a super cloudy cladding but near mirror on the Hagane.


In other words…. Buy this knife!
