Design Inspiration The "Anmon" design of this Kiritsuke Bunka knife is inspired by the rippling water of the Anmon Waterfalls, cascading from the foot of the World Heritage Shirakami Mountains. The ripple design is achieved after forging 25 layers of steel, resulting in a sharp, durable, and rust-resistant blade. Each blade is unique, as the markings are carefully handcrafted.
