Review: Beautiful work of art! - Beautiful work of art. I love the special handle with the blend of shadow wood garnet and natural resins. It really does look like a star! the balance is brilliant and you have full control over the blade. Incredibly sharp and glides through food like water so you have full control as it is only 180 grams. The Gyuto shape is amazing and It is a mind blowing fact that it weighs lighter than my mobile phone. I love the Damascus hand folding method which gives a waves effect on the blade. It feels amazing in my palm with a starry handle and a wavy blade. Amazing work of art!
