Iwai FUMON Yanagiba 210, 240, 270, 300mm

On the surface of a blade are the beautiful “Fumon” or “Wind Ripples” Damascus patterns which come from forged many layers of iron and steel.
The material is known as prime high carbon Aogami No.2 steel, which has highest wear resistance and toughness.

In addition, their knives are made to be light and well balanced, so that the center of gravity of the knife is in the hand and you can have them easily.
The handle is made of Red Sandalwood for beauty and durability, which gives us feelings of luxury.
