This blade features a fully hand-polished mirror finish (総鏡面仕上げ・鏡面研ぎ)—a mark of elite craftsmanship. Unlike common buffed mirror blades, this finish is achieved through traditional Migaki-togi, a meticulous hand-polishing process using fine abrasives and natural stones. The entire blade surface—from edge to spine—is polished to a uniform, high-reflection mirror, revealing the steel’s true character with exceptional clarity. This finish not only showcases the artisan’s skill but also enhances the aesthetic depth of the blade, reflecting light with precision while preserving structural detail such as hamon or jihada.

Ideal for collectors or professionals who appreciate the subtlety of traditional Japanese polishing, this blade exemplifies the highest standard of finishing work.
