Tetsujin is an extremely desirable knife, hand-crafted by 2 highly skilled individuals. Heat treatment from Tamura Toru is impressive to say the least, the sharpening from Naohito Myojin is next level. For knife enthusiasts, these would be in the top 5 knives you must try.
Knives are supplied with lacquer coating, it's recommended to remove before use. The lacquer can affect the look of the kasumi finish but that generally cleans up once [carefully] removed.
