The knife has been carefully hand-sharpened to 8000 grit, providing excellent sharpness suitable for precise cutting tasks. The Santoku (三徳包丁) design makes it ideal for slicing meat, fish, and vegetables. Condition: As a second-hand item, there are some minor stains and small scratches. However, the blade is not chipped and remains fully functional. Please review the images carefully for detailed condition.
