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. Please note these are carbon steel knives and they will rust if you don’t use, wash and towel dry after using. Forcing a patina is a good idea and if you don’t know what carbon steel is like to use than you shouldn’t be buying a knife like this.

Blade Length: 214mm
Overall Length: 362mm
Spine Thickness at Heel: 1.9mm
Blade Height at Heel: 65.0mm
Steel: Recycled leaf spring carbon steel

Very good and cuts well., December 30, 2021
Very thin! But also very VERY rough., December 20, 2021Posted By: Lorenzo Campolongo
Blade came in very bent and dull to the point where I needed to spend a lot of time bending it straight to even get a proper edge on it. I still have been unable to get it straight as it is bent as if you took a piece of paper at both ends and rotated your wrist in different directions. Regardless, it's VERY thin, the heat treat is good enough, and it's very reactive. If you don't feel like putting a lot of time into fixing this thing up, perhaps go for another knife.
