Hayabusa Kiritsuke

A wonderful all-rounder with a few nuanced features unique to this blacksmith's interpretations; a bit more belly along the edge than traditional k-tip profiles and a forward pitch make it very approachable to a number of grip patterns and cutting motions. 210mm roll-forged san mai construction with a core of Ginsan steel backed up with a soft stainless cladding, fit up with an octagonal wa handle of African wenge and water buffalo horn ferrule.
