Exotic: Genkai Masakuni (玄海正國) White #2 Mizu-Honyaki Mt. Fuji Yanagiba 330mm

The Genkai Masakuni Mizu-Honyaki Mt. Fuji Yanagiba is a true expression of Japanese blade artistry — a 330mm masterpiece designed for the precise and graceful preparation of sashimi, sushi, and other delicate seafood.

Hand-forged from premium White #2 carbon steel using the traditional mizu-honyaki method, this knife showcases a beautiful wave-like hamon reminiscent of Mt. Fuji beneath drifting clouds. The result is a blade of exceptional purity, sharpness, and balance — the kind that rewards skillful hands with effortless control.

Completing this remarkable piece is a handle and saya made from dyed and stabilized curly maple, offering a stunning contrast of color and texture. The slim octagonal handle provides superb comfort for extended use, while the minimalist square mosaic pin adds a subtle touch of modern elegance.
