These knives are supplied with a relatively rough edge and need to be sharpened before use. Available with a right or left handed bevel. Overall length: 10", with a tapered width from 1-1/8" to 7/8". Available in the original 1.5mm thicksteel, or 2.0mm right hand only version.

A light coating of wax such as Renaissance Wax and regular use will prevent this for coming back.
