The MC63 powder steel core is ice-hardened with the CRYODUR process to 63 HRC and hand-finished using the three-step Honbazuke technique to an angle of 9.5 to 12 degrees per side. The blade has a hammered Tsuchime finish. The cocobolo pakkawood handle has a traditional Japanese D-shaped cross-section. Blade length 18 cm. Requires a whetstone for maintenance. Hand wash. Made in Seki, Japan.
