The fit and finish on this knife is not above average. You can order a Sakai hig of equal or better quality on Needsupply.com. It shipped quite dull. But from my experience with Japanese makers, knives are often dull when shipped wholesale to avoid unnecessary liability. I sharpened this on Norton 1000, 4000 & 8000 polishing stones and now I can shave with it. How long the edge lasts will represent how well the Aogami steel was heat treated.
I think I overspent on this blade by about $20 but for all those that have already purchased the knife, take some time to develop the edge and then hone on diamond sprayed horse leather. It will bring out the edge and make it an excellent horticulture shear or mushroom knife or any other delicate use you might have.
