The type of stainless steel used is not disclosed, but I felt it had a decent hardness when sharpening it on a whetstone. There are some scratches on the blade's surface, but there is minimal wear. ・What is the meaning of the characters engraved on the sides of the blades? There are several Japanese characters engraved on the right side of the blade. The two horizontally aligned characters at the top mean "registered." Below that, the three vertically aligned characters read "Yasutsuna-Saku." "Saku" means "work." The horizontally aligned characters at the bottom mean "stainless steel." ・What is Seki Masahiro? This company is one of the top manufacturers in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, Japan's leading producer of cutlery, in every aspect, including history, reliability, and track record. They have been manufacturing and selling a variety of knives for professional and home use since 1932. They do not follow trends when it comes to knife design, but focus on designs that can remain a standard. ・Who I would recommend this knife to. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a used Nakiri knife that is ready to use upon arrival. For maintenance, a whetstone is ideal, but a honing rod or pull-through sharpener can also be used. ■About me■I am a Japanese living in Tokyo and I love to cook. I sell only real items.
