Good question. It is a razor, so, of course, kamisori is accurate. It's kind of a paradox. ie it's Japanese but not traditionally built & with a western grind so not inclined to add the Wa prefix..
Is it San-Mai or mono steel ? Wa Kamisori were always made as a single laminate of hard steel to soft iron.“The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.”
