Kitaoka Blue #2

Hideo Kitaoka has been forging traditional Japanese knives for over 30 years from his shop at the Takefu Village knife cooperative in Echizen. This Blue #2 line is where his single bevel knives are built. Each knife carries the gapped Tokyo-style machi that is signature to Kitaoka traditional handle installation. This is a great line for cooks ready to commit to single bevel technique.
