The blade features honyaki construction with a mirror polish finish and includes a blood groove along the spine. As president of the Sakai Uchihamono Traditional Craftsmen Association, Ikeda is one of few masters capable of forging high-carbon honyaki blades, and this knife represents his specialised traditional craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe K-tip profile provides a defined point for fine cutting tasks while maintaining the long, slender geometry required for drawing cuts through seafood. Blue #1 steel contains high carbon and tungsten content, achieving hardness between 61 and 64 HRC for edge retention that responds well to sharpening. This reactive carbon steel requires immediate drying after use to prevent rust and will develop a patina over time. Measuring 290mm in edge length with a 34mm heel height, the blade tapers from 4.2mm at the heel to 1.0mm at the tip and weighs 254g.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yoshikazu Ikeda","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46970487439581,"sku":null,"price":3515000.0,"currency_code":"KRW","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/DSC_7410.jpg?v=1762768010","url":"https:\/\/www.knivesandstones.co.kr\/en\/products\/exotic-yoshikazu-ikeda-blue-1-mizu-honyaki-yanagiba-300mm-with-blood","provider":"Knives and Stones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
