About This Knife
The Yuki (snow) bunka features a nashiji (pear skin) finish that reduces food sticking. Forged by Yoshimi Kato with Shirogami #2 core clad in stainless steel. Extremely light and sharp, a gateway into hand hammered Japanese knives.
Community Notes
"r/chefknives users praise the Masakage Yuki line for excellent fit and finish, with mirror polished spine and choil that feels nice in hand. Multiple owners describe it as good value for the price, though one experienced user noted fit and finish flaws including blade road unevenness and a small flat spot at the heel. The white #2 steel is relatively easy to sharpen."
