This is a Hatsukokoro VG-5 Hayabusa Santoku 180mm, a Western-handled Japanese knife, the three-purpose shape for vegetables, fish and meat.

The listing positions it as an entry into Japanese knives at a friendly price: a thin stainless blade, VG-5 at the core, rated by the listing at HRC59 to HRC60, in a black micarta Western handle that will feel familiar to anyone coming off European kitchen knives.

The listing's spec table puts this one at 153g.

Wash with a neutral detergent after use and wipe it dry rather than putting it in the dishwasher.

Most of our products are handmade in Japan, and sometimes the one that you receive maybe slightly different to the photo. This is very common and in no way it will affect the performance of the product.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do feel free to let us know.
