This knife was made by Takamura Cutlery Manufacturing, which is based on the philosophy of "good materials, good forging and heat treatment, and good sharpening."

This knife has been highly praised by professional chefs, who say that "the cut surface of the ingredients is shiny," "it is comfortable to use," and "it has an interesting quality that cannot be summed up simply as being good at cutting."

The steel used is "powdered high-speed steel." High-speed steel was originally developed as a blade steel used for metal processing, such as the tip of a drill.

Powdered high-speed steel is made by first powdering the metal and removing impurities, which makes the metal structure dense, strong, and highly wear-resistant, making it popular as a steel material for knives.
The handle is a Kyotsuba-piercing type. With a normal Western knife, the tang and handle are secured with a rivet, but with this knife, the tang is passed down to the bottom of the handle and secured in place. Although riveting provides a strong hold, it can create gaps that can allow water in, but this structure has been designed to reduce this possibility.
