Kyusakichi Damascus ZDP-189

As the name suggests, softer and harder materials are interlaced, in this case stainless steel and nickel. These are then anchored on both sides to a core of extremely hard steel ZDP-189 . This is refine at 67 HRC by Yoshida Hamono. The result is a hard, strong and beautiful blade with 21 layers. We are honored to have the highest ranking product of Yoshida Hamono.

The edge is symmetrical in the shape of the letter "V". On the blade is embossed or alternatively laser-printed inscription in kanji characters, which represents the name KYUSAKICHI and steel grade ZDP-189.

Traditional hand forging, combined with first-class material and the sub-zero treatment method, brings a blade that finding a competitor is a difficult task. Add a beautiful damask pattern, a ferrule made of pakkawood , an octagonal handle made of Kebony or rosewood trees and a sleepless night is in front of you.

Because it is handmade, each knife is original. The knives can differ from each other in shape, dimensions, color and the final surface finish of the blade. The images are illustrative and the product may differ slightly from them.
