What to know before buying

The stated weight is listed as 5 kg for the item, and the listed 8-inch blade length is not clearly tied to a specific knife. Confirm these details and the selected listing's contents if they matter to your purchase. The brand describes the steel as high-carbon stainless steel and identifies it as Japanese 10Cr15CoMoV, but these are listing claims, not independently verified specifications.
