This is a bargin alright
The adhesive for the little metal handle guard is very cheap. It came off after washing it once. For the price this is a perfectly fine knife that can definitely be sharpened.

I gave this a 3star on Craftsmaship only because of ecomonic issues
I really like this knife and give it a 5 out of 5 for value. the only things are some plastic fittings but for the budget price that is to be expected, the steel is razor sharp and I like the construction of the blade insofar as taper, thickness, and concavity on the fish-side of the blade. I'd give it a 10 out of 10 for it's price and value. Just not 10 out of 10 for knives priced at higher price-points. For example, for twice the price you can get a knife with a brass butt and pommel and dark hardwood handle. Does that cut better, probably not.

Good buy if you want to try a Yanagiba for cheap
I bought the 270 mm Yanagiba to practice sharpening on, and find myself using it quite often. If you need want a Yanagiba and don’t want to spend big-$, try this one. It is crazy-easy to sharpen - maybe too easy.Notes:1) SHARPNESS - it does not come sharp out of the box. It is sharpened, but nothing like you’d get from better-known Japanese or German manufacturers sold in the US. That said, this is very common for really-high-end Japanese knives.2) BLADE LENGTH- my knife has a full 10-3/8 of sharpened blade3) STEEL - definately not super-high carbon and fairly soft. Maybe a low-grade stainless. Not sure4) EDGE - Double-beveled (possibly asymetric). Not a single-bevel like reported by others

Excellent sushi knife and a real bargain
The quality met my high expectations. Compared to many other Japanese sushi knives it is a bargain.
