Itsuo Doi fashions this beautiful example from Blue #2 carbon steel. He uses the Ni-Mai method of awase to clad the blade in a soft iron to protect and strengthen the inner core, or hagane. The result is a strong and hardy blade that needs care in daily use due to its reactive nature. The cladding is polished on the upper surface. The primary grind area is given a lovely kasumi finish which contrasts beautifully with the upper blade and exposed jigane.
