Gesshin Hide 240mm Ginsanko Hon-Kasumi Yanagiba Shiage Toishi (Fine Stones) The yanagiba is very nice

The yanagiba is very nice and thin and the grind is very nice

I've been testing one out for a little bit and find it to cut as fast or maybe slightly faster and sticks less than the DMT's I've been using for many years

It measures 185mm overall and comes with a small leather sheath

Heel to Tip Length: 180mm

It has a very high carbon content
