Hitohira Togashi 240mm Gyuto Kasumi Stainless Clad Shirogami 1 Ebony Handle. Available in blonde or black ferrule. Blonde ferrules will vary in patterning and color.
Hand made in Sakai, kasumi finish stainless clad shirogami 1 forged by dentoukougeishi master smith Kenji Togashi and expertly ground by his son.
Stainless clad shirogami 1 is a less common combination as it is more challenging to work but it offers a great combination of the shirogami 1 carbon steel's fine edge formation and long edge life with the stainless steel's ease of use.
These are super easy to sharpen with a great cutting duration and smooth cutting feel with nicely finished corners. Slightly larger than usual geometry for a Sakai gyuto but still following in that style.
