"玄" (Gen) signifies depth and excellence, often used in contexts such as the color black or referring to an expert ("玄人" or "kuroto"). As its name suggests, the knife features a unique black color produced by iron oxide and a Damascus pattern that conveys the beauty and depth of traditional Japanese aesthetics.
The traditionally Japanese chestnut-shaped handle fits naturally in the hand, while the hammered texture of the blade enhances food release during cutting.
