Hokiyama Sakon Bokusui AUS10 ROU-Wave Damascus 240mm (9.5") Gyuto knife with Burnt pattern Urushi lacquered Magnolia Wood octagon handle
This beautiful hand-forged Gyuto knife was made by Hokiyama cutlery from the Tosa province on Shikoku Island of Japan. 240mm long special ROU-Wave Damascus blade (acid etching finish) has AUS10 core steel, heat-treated up to 59-60 HRC. Octagon handle made from natural Magnolia Wood and finished with traditional Japanese Burnt pattern Urushi lacquer.
It seems like a well-balanced medium-weight Gyuto in hand, but it transforms into a highly accurate laser as you start cutting with it. It was sent the same day I purchased it, which is excellent service.

After use, wash it with a soft sponge, wipe the knife dry and store safely. Avoid cutting the bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.
Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards, and high-end composites, as well as quality plastics such as polyethylene, make acceptable cutting surfaces and will help protect and extend the life of the knife's edge. AVOID using glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, unyielding surfaces.
We think that sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones produces the finest results for your blades.
