## About

# Kanagi: the workshop specimen sheet

Every slide is a specimen card from the maker's bench: one artifact, measured,
stamped, filed. The deck reads like an export dossier from a workshop that has
done one thing for ninety years.

## Voice

Calm, declarative, material. Sentences carry weight by being short. Numbers are
spoken like measurements, not marketing. Never exclamatory, never poetic about
"the soul of steel"; the steel's hardness number says it.

## Structure

Open on the blade itself (cover bleed). Establish lineage (heritage statement).
Show the making (craft rows). Show the goods (range split). Prove the material
(steel metric). Read the market (chart). Let a chef speak (voice bleed). Offer
the deal (partnership cards). Lay out the path (roadmap rows). Close with the
seal and one ask (closing bleed).

## Visual system

- Ground is plaster (#EFEAE2); exhibits sit on bone cards (#F8F5EE) with
  graphite hairlines. Ink is near-black graphite (#26272B).
- One accent: oxide seal red (#B5402A). Deployed like a stamp: the seal mark,
  step numerals, one rule terminal per slide at most. Never as a card edge.
- Headlines Spectral 500/600, sentence case, tight leading. Body Archivo
  16.5 to 19px. All measurements and labels in IBM Plex Mono at 14px or above.
- Whitespace is generous but content bands are sized to their content and
  centered; nothing stretches to fill.

## Graphic system

- **Signature mark: the Kanagi seal.** A 28px oxide-red square outline with an
  inset notch at the lower right (inline SVG), like a maker's hanko. It appears
  at the same size in the masthead of every interior slide and at 96px on the
  closing slide. It never rotates, never recolors.
- **Surface: paper grain.** Bleed slides and the heritage statement carry a low
  opacity feTurbulence grain over the ground so flats read as paper stock.
- **Structural device: the edge rule.** Section rules are 1px graphite
  hairlines that terminate in a short 18px stroke angled at 24 degrees (the
  blade tip), drawn with a ::after element. Dividers between ledger rows stay
  plain hairlines.
- **Depth moment: the profile curve.** A single oversized blade-profile path
  (graphite at 5 to 7% opacity) bleeds off the right edge of the cover and the
  closing, behind content. One per slide maximum, never on data slides.

## Density

Statement and bleed slides are editorial: one claim, generous air. Craft,
range, roadmap and partnership run balanced. Steel and market may run
data-dense. Body text never drops below 16.5px; mono labels never below 14px.

## Style anchors

- A museum specimen sheet: object, caption, catalog number
- A Sakai forge bench under one north-facing window
- An export crate stencil: stamped, exact, unsentimental
- A steel hardness certificate, typeset in a single mono column
- The oxide-red customs seal on kraft paper
