"A guest comes from afar, gifting me a pair of carp.
I open the carp, and find a precious letter within."

The Messenger of Steel: Twin Fish (雙魚)

In Eastern philosophy, the "Twin Fish" represents harmony, abundance, and the eternal balance of Yin and Yang. This blade is not merely a tool; it is a sculpted message of strength and fluidity, forged to be the centerpiece of your collection.

The Art of Three-Color Polishing (三色研磨)
What sets the Twin Fish apart is its exquisite 18-step "San-shoku" (Three-Color) hand polishing. Unlike standard blades, this meticulous process creates three distinct visual zones: the mirror-like spine, the misty matte body, and the crystalline white Hamon (temper line). This technique reveals the true soul of the T10 steel, making the natural temper pattern dance like ink in water.

Performance Meets Aesthetics
Beneath the art lies a beast. Forged from high-carbon T10 Steel using the ancient Clay Tempering technique, this blade possesses a hard, razor-sharp edge capable of unparalleled cuts, supported by a softer, shock-absorbing spine. Mounted with genuine Pearl Fish Skin (Rayskin) and durable Zinc Alloy fittings featuring the Twin Fish motif, it is built to endure.
