This has been taken through full stone progression and etched to respect Miyazaki San instant recognition.
The bevels are now stone ready for any future thinning. I’m very happy with how this turned out.
From Miyazaki San -
It is hardened with water to create a very hard and sharp blade.
I named it ``Tsubaki Knife'' because the island where I live has many camellia trees growing naturally in Japan, and it is the flower that produces the most camellia oil and is the symbol of the island.

“The meaning written on the washi paper is "HARYUGATA Damascus" HONWARIKOMI AOGAMI No. 2 Water-hardened camellia knife 20cm July 2023 auspicious day MIYAZAKIKAJIYA MIYAZAKI HARUKI is written.”
First of all, the outer metal is made in a special way by forge-welding extremely soft iron, Aogami No. 2, and Aogami No. 1 many times, and adding twists. Aogami 2 core.
I call it "HARYUGATA". I live on an island, and I chose the kanji to represent the waves and currents that wash over the ocean.
