Great knife but cosmetic issues

Beautiful knife. The back side of the knife is perfect but the front has an area that was scratched.

Amazing Gyuto

I’ve had my eyes on this knife for a few months now and I am so excited to finally own it! The handle feels much more comfortable than the original Kaizen due to its slightly rounded shape. The sharpness is great as expected. I can’t wait to use it more!
