Yoshida-san attaches soft iron ore completely by hand using no automation in the process, then leaves the blades unpolished in the kurouchi style that is typical of the region. This finish not only looks cool, but helps prevent oxidation of carbon steel. They are hand sharpened and finished with traditional octagonal oak handles.\\n\\nWhy we love them: Akira Saku knives have a cool rustic look and a super approachable price point for a first hand-forged Japanese Knives.\\n\\n*These handmade knives vary slightly in size and shape and do not fit standard wooden sayas.\\n\\nPlease note: This knife is made from carbon steel, which gets incredibly sharp and is easy to sharpen but requires additional maintenance. This knife should be kept clean and dry at all times and oiled when not in use for an extended amount of time.
