It arrived by mail this afternoon. I've only tried it on a piece of paper and it was very sharp. ZDP laminated by ATS55. It has a blade that they call "Hamaguri" blade. A flat ground blade and the other side has a rounded blade. Sorry if it's hard to tell from the picutures I'm not good at photographs. Handle material is black micarta. overall length is 21cm.about 8 inches long. Designed by Mr.Kitano. I bought it because I didn't have any knives in ZDP and it looks good. very happy with it. there is nobody around me who likes knives so I had to post in this forum. thanks for looking.
