Hi:
I have a nice looking knife, not really a weapon, but suspect some BS and maybe somebody can tell me what's really going on.
It is a kitchen knife, Shun Kaji KDM0048 Western Chef 6". Oh WOW, I never looked it up until now:

This was way more then I expected - it was a gift. It better not be BS at that price but it does not look like the real Japanese blades I have seen on TV shows where they show traditional Japanese sword making The description talks of old world traditions and says something about layers. This blade however looks like it just has a pattern rolled into the blade.
I have about 30 minutes of History Channel blade knowledge so maybe some more knowledgeable folks can tell me about this knife.
Thanks,

...I have been lurking for months and finally signed up to inquire about ammo and my first post on a shooters site has me asking about a knife.
