This knife is a rare find because it is discontinued. Don’t hesitate on rare high-quality Japanese cutlery.

The GM series is a great value and holds a great edge. The AUS8 stainless steel allows for a thin and stiff blade that is easy to care for. The use of high carbon molybdenum makes the blade hard and the addition of vanadium in the alloy lends to a fine grain.

This is a great entry level knife.
