Notes: A masterpiece by Shinji Fujishita, a Traditional Craftsman of Echizen Cutlery. As he has already retired, it is extremely rare to obtain one.
Unusually for a noodle cutting knife, this is not a single-bevel knife but is made with a Sanmai construction. It is a very light and easy-to-use 36cm knife.
Famous knives such as the former Issanan Tomosoba and Kunihiro Takahashi's Daruma knives are made by Shinji Fujishita.
It will be shipped with camellia oil for rust prevention, but the mirror finish will be restored with a water wipe.
