It is not what I was expecting from a "japanese " knife

The knife is sharp and surprisingly light. But, the quality of finishing is not quite there. As you can see in the photo not shure if this is a defect or it is the way it is finished. This is not what I am expecting from a Japanese manufacturer. I purchased many japanese knives and this is the first time I see such bad finishing and details quality.

Pros
