This batch of Wakui Nashiji knives was ordered almost 5 years ago! The return of one of our most highly thought after knife. Grab one while you can :)
Comes with K&S ebony handle which alone worth over $80.
=====
Wakui is popular not only because it is priced right, but more importantly because it cuts really well. The white 2 stainless clad line is a typical Sanjo knife with top level F&F and the "Sanjo taper" (thick at the heel, and tapers drastically to a very fine tip). Super thin behind the edge means it just glides through food with minimal effort. Personally I really like white 2 because how easily it can be sharpened to a screaming sharp edge.
