The curved blade profile suits both push-cut and rocking techniques. At 240 mm, the format aligns with the professional standard, offering enough length for larger cuts while the blade height provides natural knuckle clearance at the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade features a migaki finish on both faces, with a diffuse-reflection surface consistent with careful polishing. The \u003ca href=\"\/en\/pages\/lexique#sanmai\"\u003esanmai\u003c\/a\u003e construction places a Ginsan core with jigane cladding on each side, a geometry that concentrates hardness at the edge while maintaining a degree of flexibility through the body of the blade. The octagonal wa-handle in Taihei, a dark close-grained wood, is fitted with a collar in warm honey and brown tones that bridges the handle to the blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eGinsan (Silver Steel)\u003c\/strong\u003e is a high-carbon stainless steel (C 0.95,1.10%, Cr 13.0,14.5%) designed to behave on the stone much like a carbon steel while resisting corrosion. It sharpens quickly on water stones and reaches a very fine edge for a stainless steel. The trade-off: without molybdenum or vanadium, it lacks the alloy reinforcements found in steels like VG10. In daily use, this means the edge benefits from regular sharpening sessions, but responds well each time it meets the stone. No patina develops on the blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse and dry after each use. Do not put in the dishwasher.
