Japanese Chef knife - Gyuto
My sister recently went to Japan for a couple of weeks. While there, she got me this knife from a local knife maker with a good reputation.
The blade shows a san mai construction, but the bolster is not integral to the blade. I believe that the handle material is ebony. The handle shape looks to be of the European design instead of the traditional Japanese design.
I do not wish to come across as ungrateful or nit-picky. This is a freakishly awesome gift!

"Probably preaching to the choir here, Kevin. I suspect most who post here feel the same way."
"The photos in the previous post are of an old German pruning type knife I just aquired. It surely is interesting, and quite old."
