This knife original model is DON-ZDP. However, this model has big different of the two part. The most different things of the blade shape which is made by "Tanto-Honzukuri". It is "Tanto-convex" blade shape. As you know, Rockstead are making the "Tanto" blade shape with 智 CHI model. But this blade shape is "Tanto-Shinogizukuri". That means straight grind. However, "Tanto-Honzukuri" was completed with ROCKSTEAD special technologies. The only a few knife maker who make this kind of blade shape. But, nobody with mirror polishing surface.
