At 35mm blade height, it has significantly less surface contact than a gyuto, reducing drag through the cut. The VG10 core is forged between two layers of damascus-patterned steel using the Suminagashi technique, producing the distinctive flowing pattern visible on the blade flat. The tsuchime hammered finish further reduces sticking.
