The Funayuki DN-11211 knife is forged by Daisuke Nishida and is one of the greatest, magnificent examples of Japanese knives. Funayuki was originally used by fishermen to prepare meals at sea. This is a universal knife, it is equally convenient for them to butcher medium-sized fish, butcher its fillet and cut vegetables. Funayuki combines the look of a deba, a nakiri, and a yanagiba. Blade 165 mm is made of carbon steel Shirogami No. 1 by forge welding with a black coating. The Daisuke Nishida Funayuki has an octagonal walnut handle with a maple ring. The bolster is made of Macassar ebony wood. This knife cannot be washed in the dishwasher. Japanese kitchen knives have a very hard but thin blade. Japanese knives are not allowed to cut bones and meat with bones, coconuts and other nuts, and other hard foods. Daisuke Nishida knives due to handmade may differ slightly from those shown in the photos and sizes. Weight 240 gr.

Japanese blacksmith Daisuke Nishida is based in Kumamoto, he is 42 years old. He became a disciple to another blacksmith when he was 19 and after 9 years of training, in 2006, he went on his own way and set up his workshop. He uses solely white#1 steel which is difficult to forge and it's said only the best blacksmiths can forge white#1 well. His methods are very traditional and he forges completely from scratch with no help from anyone except for the handles so you are buying a piece of art essentially composed by one person.
