This is an especially sharp Japanese leather craft cutting knife, using Blue-2 steel from Yasuki, which is reputed to be the top grade of steel for knives.
This knife is made by hand forged, Takao Shibano who is one of the most famous craft-man.

By creating a thickness near the handle, the center of gravity lies near the user’s hand. This gives the knife a good balance and high class cutting ability.

Japanese Tansetsu ancient forged techniques
The base metal composed of soft iron and the hard blade metal are bound together by sprinkling bonding material on top of the heated base metal.  The bound metals are then hammered numerous times on top of a block of steel and heated on the furnace. This repetitive procedure binds the two metals together. The hard blade metal becomes the blade of the knife while the soft iron supports the blade; resulting in a sharp edge and forms the base of a heavy-duty knife.
