Coreless" means that there is no core (core steel) and different materials(VG-10, VG-2) are alternately layered, which makes the blade very tough and sharp. Also, like Damascus knives, there is no steel sandwiched in the center of the blade, so it can be used as a double-edged or single-edged knife.

”Kensaki" refers to the shape of the tip, which is pointed like a sword. The reason is that the tip of an ordinary santoku knife is more rounded.

The handle is made of a water-resistant mycarta resin material often used for knife handles.
