VG-10 core and Damascus construction
The Japanese stainless VG-10 cutting core forms part of a 67-layer blade, including the core itself — not 67 layers on each side. The outer layers create the Damascus pattern, while the Tsuchime finish provides a distinctive surface texture. The sharpened core forms the cutting edge.
Ergonomic Pakkawood handle
The Pakkawood handle combines a wood-like appearance with the practical qualities of stabilized material. Its Western ergonomic shape is secured by three rivets. This is not an octagonal Japanese Wa handle.
