The blade is made in 3 layers, in the San-Mai technique. This technique involves overlapping two softer steels around one, extremely hard central one, in this case Aogami Super steel. This construction not only improves the aesthetic appearance of the knife itself, but also contributes to its resistance to cracking, and Aogami Super is considered by many blacksmiths to be the best quality steel for making knives. The finish of this knife is called Kuro-nashiji, which means a textured black finish on the body of the knife that is completely unique and unique every time.

The handle is made of oak wood in an octagonal shape, and two wood preservation techniques have been applied to it. Lightly burning the wood increases its resistance to external influences and makes the handle look more rustic. In addition, it is coated with a thin layer of Japanese Urashi lacquer, which is applied by hand and gives additional protection and a natural feeling in the hand.
The octagonal shape is designed to improve the grip itself, and the oak wood has antibacterial properties.
