The GW Series is a true masterpiece that beautifully reflects the Japanese design principle of shibui. This principle emphasizes a balance between simplicity and complexity, and the GW Series perfectly embodies it.

The blade of this knife is a true work of art. It consists of a three-layer sanmai structure, which includes a Ginsan Silver-3 core and SUS440 stainless steel outer layer. This combination of materials not only offers excellent durability but also ensures that the blade remains sharp for a long time. To enhance its beauty further, the blade is hand-engraved with the Kikuichi chrysanthemum logo, which symbolizes longevity and rejuvenation. The blade is sharpened to 61 Rockwell hardness, making it exceptionally hard and capable of retaining its sharp edge for a long time. This makes it ideal for precise cutting tasks that require a sharp edge. The handle is equally impressive, designed in the octagonal wa-style from beautiful walnut wood. Its elegant design not only looks stunning but also provides a comfortable grip while in use. The handle is adorned with a water buffalo horn ferrule that adds to its durability and beauty.

Carbon Steel knives like Kikuichi Ginsan Sanmai are not stain or rust-resistant. Day to day, it is as simple as remembering to hand wash and dry after each use.
