This nakiri arrived from the manufacturer with a small crack in the handle, which is visible in the second and fourth pictures.
Daovua has been hard at work building a factory so they can improve the quality of their blades. They've also decided to make a new line of knives with more classic Japanese shapes with flatter profiles, improved sharpness, and upgraded steel. These knives are taking them longer to make with better finish and nicer handles. We think they're a big step up.
