This knife comes with 50/50 double bevel edge geometry for both right and left handed use.
For your information, Japanese Kitchen knives are generally designed for right hand use with a slightly thicker and rounded grinding on the right side blade and a less rounded (almost straight flat) grinding on the left side blade. However, both right and left hander can use the knives that have double bevel edge sharpened 50/50 without problems.
We believe the quality and cutting performance of Japanese knives are the best in the world, and hope you enjoy fine craftsmanship and sharp edge with your new knife. With proper cares, every Japanese knife should be your special cooking partner for long times.

Well this knife is my baby and top favorite knife of all my 25 Japanese knifes - this is my second Masamoto because I loved the 240mm so i had to get the 210mm as well - this is everything a knife has to be - it goes through everything so effortlessly and its so light - love the profil - love the knife
The Masamoto KS Series knife I had order arrived within only a few days after I had ordered; super fast shipping)! The customer service provided by Japanese Chef Knife is also exemplary! They answered my questions in detail almost immediately (addressing any concerns and/or questions that I had).
This knife, Ladies and Gentleman, is pure joy to use. Perfectly manufactured (rounded edges, ...), lightweight, good balance, good sharpness, and due to the blade geometry, it cuts through everything like a ... you know ;) Originally, I wanted to buy the White Steel-Version, but that is not available at the moment, so I went with the stainless Version - and I am not disappointed! I highly recommend this knife! (In the second Screenshot you see the Masamoto KS Petty 165mm and the Gyuto 210mm)
