This spear point marking knife by Tasai-san is hand laminated and finished off with a traditional black finish. We currently have one 24mm size and one 30mm.
These knives take their name from the opposing bevels that form the two cutting edges. Still a "single bevel" knife thanks to the flat back with hollow grind, the cutting edge shape makes them ambidextrous.
Tasia Chisels currently have a + one year wait time and have become highly collectable.
