At the age of 80, Anryu San continues to work part-time, crafting knives for the company. The unique feature of these knives is their construction: a core of Hitachi Aogami #2 carbon steel that has been hardened to 63 HRC, enveloped in stainless steel to simplify upkeep. This special core steel can easily acquire a supremely sharp edge and retain it for an extended duration. The Hammered line by Mr. Anryu has earned a reputable standing amidst Japanese knife connoisseurs for its top-notch functionality and its rustic yet sophisticated aesthetic. Being a product of artisan craftsmanship, one should allow for slight variations in dimensions between each knife. Users should be aware that the knife's carbon steel core will develop a patina over time due to normal use and might rust if not properly cared for. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|kaankusugy21||item-1||solidtemplate||anryuknives||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/katsushige-anryu-kurouchi-suminagashi-gyuto-210-80.png||||||Anryu Kurouchi Damascus Gyuto 210mm||AnryuShiro-Gyuto210||specials > forknco > kaan > anryuknives > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > Anryu Hamono > All Anryu Knives > ||155.000||170.000 ||155.000 |||| ||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/kaankusugy21.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|kaankusugy24||item-1||solidtemplate||anryuknives||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/katsushige-anryu-kurouchi-suminagashi-gyuto-240-62.png||||||Anryu Kurouchi Damascus Gyuto 240mm||AnryuShiro-Gyuto240||specials > forknco > kaan > anryuknives > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > Anryu Hamono > All Anryu Knives > ||195.000||195.000 |||||| ||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/kaankusugy24.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|kaankusuna||item-1||solidtemplate||newarrivals||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/katsushige-anryu-kurouchi-suminagashi-nakiri-96.png||||||Anryu Kurouchi Damascus Nakiri 165mm||AnryuShiro-Nakiri||newarrivals > ||New Arrivals > ||130.000||130.000 |||||| ||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/kaankusuna.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|ankudape12||item-1||solidtemplate||120mmpettys||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/anryu-kurouchi-damascus-petty-120mm-59.png||||||Anryu Kurouchi Damascus Petty 120mm||AnryuShiroPetty120||resources > petty-knives > 120mmpettys > ||Knife Types > Petty Knives > 120-140mm Pettys > ||110.000||110.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||Established in the 1870s, the Anryu family, led by fourth-generation blacksmith Katsushige Anryu, are renowned for their finely crafted knives.

These auto cast-offs are usually made from 5160 steel, which is a wonderful alloy for many knife blade applications. In fact several highly regarded custom knife makers use this steel source for their (sometimes) expensive creations.

It takes fine compounds and holds them in the fabric very well and it also doesn't impart any grit to the sharpening process so when you use it loaded with diamond spray the results are a super fine edge without the substrate contributing to the sharpening.

Gabe Mabry, the skilled artisan behind Doberman Forge in Albemarle, North Carolina, brings you this exquisite knife, crafted with precision and passion. With a strong culinary background, Gabe meticulously designs and grinds each knife for peak performance. This knife is forged from 80CrV2, Gabe's preferred steel, known for its exceptional toughness and edge retention, comparable to the renowned 5160 and 52100 steels. Heat-treated to an impressive HRC 61, this steel was selected as the top choice by our forum members in a recent poll. The knife features a refined gyuto profile with a slightly straighter spine, elevating the tip to create a more rounded edge from the midpoint onward. It also includes a generous flat section near the heel, perfect for push cutting enthusiasts. The full tang construction is complemented by a beautifully sculpted handle made from dyed, stabilized burlwood, offering both comfort and elegance. This is more than just a knife; it’s a masterpiece, handcrafted by a true forge artisan. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|doibl2gy21us||item-1||solidtemplate||closeouts||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/doi-blue-2-gyuto-215mm-used-once-and-returned-10.png||||||Doi Blue #2 Gyuto 215mm Used Once and Returned. ||DoiB2-Second||specials > closeouts > ||Resources > CKTG Close Outs > ||260.000||299.950 ||260.000 ||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||Save 39.95 on this Doi Blue #2 Gyuto 215mm.

The steel he uses is Shirogami #1. The makers of these knives developed a network of small artisan shops that focused exclusively on different tasks of the knife making process, such as grinding, handle making, and engraving. These artisans co-operated with dealers that acted as general contractors for the production of knives under many different brand names but all used the Sakai Wazashu seal of quality. Blacksmiths would do the initial forging, hammering, and heat treating of the blades, then the grinders would grind and sharpen the edge. Next the knives would be sent to the handlers, then engraved by the knife distributor who sold the knives to other dealers under their family names. Astonishingly, this method of production survives to this day. This unique, collaborative feature of the Sakai knife makers is partly responsible for the high quality knives produced. Below we offer several knife makers that all produce knives from Sakai artisans in this same fashion.||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/hiofsaknma.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|hioftaviec||item.||solidtemplate||cktginnews||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/history-of-takefu-village-echizen-56.png||||||History of Takefu Village/ Echizen||||specials > cktginnews > ||Resources > Japanese Blacksmith Regions > ||||||||||||||||0||1||0||0||||kaan kurosakiknives masakageyuki masakageshimo musakagekoishi masakagemizu kanehiro tasakn1 ||||Tradition and History This history of the blacksmith tradition of Echizen was written by the Takefu Co-operative/association.

The people had to climb up and down the mountains to go out to Osaka, Edo and other areas. It's important to understand the many of these regions were separate territories that developed unique customs from other competing states much in the way Italy developed after the fall of the Roman Empire. Because of this isolation, Tosa traditionally and still to this day have a unique culture from other areas of Japan. You can see this different culture in the knives that are made in the Tosa region. Many Tosa blacksmiths enjoy making kurouchi knives and the area is known for this type of finish using hammer forge techniques in making their knives. We will be concentrating our efforts to obtain more Tosa knife makers in the coming year.||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/hioftokn.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|homepage28||link.||||||||||||Home Page||||||||||||||||||||||0||0||0||0||||||||||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|homepage29||link.||||||||||||Home Page||||||||||||||||||||||0||0||0||0||||||||||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|homepage17||link.||||||||||||Home Page||||||||||||||||||||||0||0||0||0||||||||||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|homepage22||link.||||||||||||Home Page||||||||||||||||||||||0||0||0||0||||||||||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|honesuki||item.||solidtemplate||resources||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/honesuki-knives-64.png||||||Honesukis||||resources > ||Knife Types > ||||||||||||||||0||1||0||0||||anbl2haho15 dav2ho14 da52ho14 dalesphobokn enbl2ho15 ensrho15 havgtsho15 hawh2ho15 isw2hocu kanehide kabeho15leha katkhori15 katkho18fiha katkbokn15le yohiwh2ho15 kielcaho15 koaosuho15 kobl2waho15 kosldho15 kobl2naho15 kohaho15 kohaho151 koweasho150 macprbokn6 makoho15 mayuho15 makiho15 mashho mabl2naho15 moho15 okgiho15 okwh2haho okwh2ho15 okbl2ho15 fucunaho15se tabl2ho15 satavgdahaho fufkmbo14 tatowh2ho15 tatowh2ga18 tatowh2mu18 tapade18 tagrchho15 todputkn15 yawh1ho15 yabl2ho yawibopekn yofuwh1ho15 yubl2ho151 yubl2naho15 siho150sab honesukisaya ||||Honesukis are boning knives specifically designed for parting out poultry.

Put together, the relatively small amounts of these metals give VG-10 steel its many important properties, including an ability to hold an edge coupled with great durability. VG-10 is a really popular alloy employed in the making of many top brand Japanese kitchen knives including Shun and Miyabi.

At 270mm this is a medium sized example of the breed, so it is perfect for home chefs or pros working in tight spaces. ||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/kagisu27.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|kanasubu15||item-1||solidtemplate||buknupto17an||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/kato-nashiji-suminagashi-bunka-150mm-62.png||||||Kato Nashiji Suminagashi Bunka 170mm||KatoNashiji-Bunka||resources > bannobunkas > buknupto17an > ||Knife Types > Bunka Knives > Bunka Knives 170mm and Longer > ||240.000||240.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||The bunka knife has become increasingly popular among both professional and home chefs due to its versatility in the kitchen.

The yanagiba is designed solely for the purpose of slicing the thinnest pieces of fish, with a minimum of sticking and tearing. Several important criteria have to be met to satisfy these conditions. The blade needs to be long and thin so that the slice can be made with a single pulling cut. The thinness allows for the cutting to be achieved with very little downforce. The back side of the blade features a very slight concave profile to easily detach the sliced piece from the blade after cutting. ||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/kidaya24wh1.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|kidaya27wh1||item-1||solidtemplate||allkikn||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/kitaoka-damascus-yanagiba-270mm-white-1-128.png||||||Kitaoka Damascus W#1 Yanagiba 270mm||KitaokaSumi-Yanagi270||specials > forknco > kitaokaknives > allkikn > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > Kitaoka Knives > All Kitaoka Knives > ||279.000||279.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||The yanagiba is a knife used to slice boneless fish fillets into sashimi and toppings for other sushi dishes. The slender and long blade is intended to cut slices in a single drawing stroke. It requires minimal pressure to achieve the slice which avoids stress and cell destruction of the fish.

Usually, they get polished out. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|koweasho150||item-1||solidtemplate||boning-knives||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/kohetsu-western-as-honesuki-150-145.png||||||Kohetsu AS Western Honesuki 150mm||KAS-H150||resources > boning-knives > ||Knife Types > Boning Knives > ||140.000||140.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||The honesuki is primarily used for boning smaller proteins, in particular, poultry and other birds. It is quite stiff and features a triangular profile and pointed tip, all the better for getting into tight spaces and between joints. Many honesukis are single bevel knives, reflecting their Japanese heritage. But many are now being made with a two-sided edge, as is this example. A side effect of this double bevel is that the knife becomes more of a general purpose petty style knife. The shape and weight allow for easy and secure in hand work as well as being a great blade for creating garnishes. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|koweasna16||item-1||solidtemplate||koaosuweha||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/kohetsu-western-as-nakiri-165mm-150.png||||||Kohetsu AS Western Nakiri 165mm||KAS-N165||kitchen-knives > kohetsuknives > kohetsu > koaosuweha > ||Knife Brands > Kohetsu Knives > Kohetsu Aogami Super > Kohetsu Aogami Super Western Handled > ||150.000||150.000 ||||||||2.000 ||||1||1||1||0||||||||We created Kohetsu knives to bring you the best cutting performance using the top steels on the market, with impeccable heat treatment and nice, thin grinds—all at an affordable price. ||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/koweasna16.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|koweaspe12||item-1||solidtemplate||koaosuweha||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/kohetsu-western-as-petty-120mm-188.png||||||Kohetsu AS Western Petty 120mm||KAS-P120||kitchen-knives > kohetsuknives > kohetsu > koaosuweha > ||Knife Brands > Kohetsu Knives > Kohetsu Aogami Super > Kohetsu Aogami Super Western Handled > ||100.000||100.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||We have this line of AS knives made exclusively for CKTG by the talented blacksmith Tsukahara-San.

The edge retention ranks at the top of the list of any steel we currently sell. HAP40 is fine-grained enough to sharpen very well and can be hardened to 64-68 on the Rockwell Hardness Test (HRC)--even harder than the traditional carbon steels used for knives. Contrary to other HSS steels, it can be relatively easily sharpened on normal waterstones, if not quite as easily as traditional steels. Knives from this steel keep their sharpness 3 to 5 times longer than traditional knives.

It is similar to VG-10 aside from a slightly larger grain structure due to there being more vanadium than in VG-10. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|kohetsuwhite2||item.||solidtemplate||kohetsuknives||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/kohetsu-white-2-64.png||||||Kohetsu White #2 ||||kitchen-knives > kohetsuknives > ||Knife Brands > Kohetsu Knives > ||||||||||||||||0||1||0||0||||kowh2na16 kowh2sa16 kowh2bu17 ||||New for 2020.

Kurosaki operates out of Takefu Village and is currently producing some very high quality, handcrafted knives. Kurosaki’s knives are characterized by wonderfully convex grinds that get laser thin behind the edge and profiles that sport quite long flat sections with moderate belly at the tip. He is also very, very skilled in his treatment of steel. In the case of the Shimo, Kurosaki is working with Shirogami #2 and he does a remarkable job with this core steel. The edge is capable of very high levels of sharpness and refinement and can be taken to steep angles without losing integrity or becoming chippy. The core steel is wrapped in a reactive iron Damascus cladding, which is one of the more attractive finishes we have seen. Kurosaki developed a custom hammer to create the effect which is meant to evoke frost as it appears on a window during winter. Fit and finish is quite high on these knives and like all Masakages, come very sharp out of the box. ||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/mash270su.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|masakageyuki||item.||solidtemplate||hiroshikato||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/masakage-yuki-102.png||||||Masakage Yuki||||specials > forknco > hiroshikato > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > Kato (Yoshimi) > ||||||||||||||||0||1||0||0||||mayupe75 mayupe12 mayuho15 mayupe15 mayuna16 mayubu17 yukisantoku mayugy18 mayugy21 mayugy24 mayugy27 mayusu27 ||||Masakage Yuki knives are Shirogami #2 (White #2) carbon steel clad with stainless steel.

This excellent knife is constructed from Aogami 2 (Blue #2) high-carbon steel. This is one of the most popular steels in the world of kitchen knives. The alloy is known for its outstanding edge life and overall toughness. Blue steels are harder to sharpen than whites, which cut better as they dull down. But the edge on blue steel is one of the longest-lasting of the paper steels. This core steel is laminated in the san-mai style with softer stainless steel, giving a lovely nashiji (pear skin) finish.

It then transitions into a gentle curve to the kiritsuke tip. The blade length is a medium 212mm, which is perfectly proportioned to the 48mm height. Of course, the outstanding physical feature is the reverse tanto tip. Not only does this result in a knife with a flatter profile but also one with more blade-forward weight distribution. This is a fairly robust blade that will find favor with users looking for a knife that feels solid and stiff. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|mabl2naki24||item-1||solidtemplate||ki24andab||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/matsubara-blue-2-nashiji-kiritsuke-240mm-306.png||||||Matsubara Blue #2 Nashiji Kiritsuke 240mm||MA2-K24W||resources > kiritsukeknife > ki24andab > ||Knife Types > Kiritsukes > Kiritsukes 240mm and Above > ||240.000||240.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||There is a fascination with kiritsuke tipped knives that is very understandable.

Tanaka-san hand forges these fine blades out of the very popular Aogami 2 steel as his core component. He hardens the steel to a Rockwell rating of 62HRC, which is a sweet spot for Blue #2. He then forge-welds a layer of soft stainless steel to the core using the san-mai method of awasi (cladding). The soft stainless steel protects the inner core of Aogami 2 steel and adds a level of dampening to the blade, which reduces the chances of fractures while making the blade easier to maintain. Even so, these knives must be kept clean and dry to avoid corrosion to the exposed hagane. The jigane then receives a really lovely nashiji, or pear skin, finish. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|mabl2wafa||item.||solidtemplate||makn||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/matsubara-blue-2-wavy-face-120.png||||||Matsubara Blue #2 Wavy Face||||specials > forknco > makn > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > Matsubara Knives > ||||||||||||||||0||1||0||0||||inshse mabl2wafatap mabl2wafasa1 mabl2wafabu1 mabl2nabu17 mawafabl2gy22 mawafabl2gy2 ||mabl2nagy21c||Matsubara Blue #2 Wavy Face.

The most popular material used for Japanese knives is Yasuki Specialty Steel (YSS). Yasuki steel was developed by Hitachi Metal Ltd. from “Tatara”, an ancient Japanese method of manufacturing iron. There are several grades of these steels depending on the percentage of impurities and the composition of special metals. White Steel (YSS Shiro-gami, White-paper) is the purest type of carbon steel with very few impurities. Forging white steel is extremely difficult and requires highly skilled craftsmen to make the most of this alloy. There are white steel #1, #2 and #3 varieties. #1 is the hardest among the three. A knife made in this steel has an extremely sharp edge but can be brittle and prone to chipping. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|mawh1kicl18||item-1||solidtemplate||allmakn||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/matsubara-white-1-kiri-cleaver-180mm-198.png||||||Matsubara White #1 Kiri Cleaver 180mm||MS1-C18W||specials > forknco > makn > allmakn > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > Matsubara Knives > All Matsubara Knives > ||219.950||219.950 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||The Matsubara White #1 Kiri Cleaver is a fine example of a traditional cleaver, the Japanese version of the European chef knife.

The scratch pattern produced on this stone makes it an easy jump to a middle grit stone like a 1K. Like most low grit stones they wear somewhat quickly and are thirsty so we recommend a 5-10 minute soak before you start sharpening and if it dries out during your session just splash more water on the surface.

During the Showa period, Nigara Kunitoshi, a master swordsmith, was often recognized for his work. After World War II, the traditional swordsmithing technique was banished by the US Military and many blacksmiths had to change their business to gardening tools, kitchen cutlery, and other practical applications.

Yanagiba translates into "willow leaf blade." The slender blade is tailored to cut the fish in one single stroke. Its ultra sharp edge slices through the fish with minimal pressure required, thus reducing stress to the flesh and minimizing cellular damage. The yanagiba is such a specialized knife that by using different cutting techniques the chef can enhance and change the visual characteristics and flavors of the fish. There are several styles of fish slicers employed by sushi chefs but the classic yanagi is the most favored. Yanagibas are long knives and usually do not come much shorter than 270mm. This ensures that the slice is made in one single stroke. Sawing is simply not acceptable in the preparation of sushi. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|satasawh2pe||item-1||solidtemplate||150mmpettys||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/sakai-takayuki-sanpou-white-2-petty-52.png||||||Sakai Takayuki Sanpou White #2 Kasumi Petty 150mm||3216||resources > petty-knives > 150mmpettys > ||Knife Types > Petty Knives > 150-165mm Pettys > ||185.000||185.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||Discover the pinnacle of culinary excellence with the Sakai Takayuki Sanpou White #2 Kasumi Petty — a testament to the art of Japanese knife craftsmanship.

A local magistrate named Otani Seibei went to Edo (Tokyo) and invited some blacksmiths to come and start work making nails as a second industry and giving them an alternative source of income. Within a generation of this decision there were many blacksmiths established and working the trade and their reputation grew as they expanded their offering into other items such as farming tools and other small implements. Sickles were a primary tool made and Sanjo blacksmiths became known for this particular tool. Soon a whole small industry was developed and trade with other regions of Japan were established. Today Sanjo blacksmiths continue to forge cutting implements and many small shops still exist to this day with fathers passing on their businesses to their sons. Kitchen cutlery has become an important product as farm tools have waned after the introduction of larger factory tools to process rice and wheat and other crops.||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/saciblhi.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|santoku-reviews||info.||solidtemplate||||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/santoku-knives-reviews-38.png||||||Santoku Knives Reviews||||||||||||||||||||||0||0||0||0||||||||||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|santokuknives||item.||solidtemplate||resources||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/santoku-knives-77.png||||||Santokus||||resources > ||Knife Types > ||||||||||||||||0||1||0||0||||wahasa wehasa ||||Santoku knives are prized for their handy, user-friendly size and gyuto/chef’s knife-like versatility.

The long blade of the sujihiki is ideal for thinly carving cooked meats and slicing terrines and patés. The short height of the blade creates less friction when slicing and the blade draws through fish and meat effortlessly. The sujihiki is often regarded as the Western style equivalent of the traditional yanagi knife.

Yanagibas are one of the most iconic Japanese kitchen knives. Their long slender blades give the knives a very purposeful look, more reminiscent of a sword than a chef knife. The yanagiba is sometimes referred to as the willow blade as this is the literal translation from the Japanese word. (The knife’s slender blade resembles the long, narrow leaves of a willow.) Yanagiba knives are designed so that the chef gently pulls it through the food using just the weight of the blade itself to do the cutting. The incredible sharpness of the blade reduces loss of the natural juices and creates the cleanest cuts imaginable. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|takuvghateco2||item-1||solidtemplate||buknupto17an||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/takayuki-kurokage-vg10-hammered-teflon-coated-bunka-190mm-118.png||||||Takayuki Kurokage VG10 Bunka 190mm||7494||resources > bannobunkas > buknupto17an > ||Knife Types > Bunka Knives > Bunka Knives 170mm and Longer > ||185.000||185.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||The combination of the reverse tanto-style tip and short, tall blade lend the bunka a very purposeful look.

Knives like the one featured here very much resemble a gyuto with a tanto tip and are also known as bunkas. The reverse tanto tip is the most obvious design element of the bunka blade. This intriguing and cool-looking tip is a way to get extra edge length to the blade while keeping over all mass down. Aside from general cutting and chopping duties it is also a perfect tool for processing smaller items and performing intricate cuts with the tip. Since this knife has a fairly flat profile, it is most adept at push cutting and chopping rather than rock chopping. It is more gyuto than classic bunka due to its lower blade height and longer edge length. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|tadahavgki27||item-1||solidtemplate||ki24andab||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/takayuki-damascus-hammered-vg-10-kiritsuke-270mm-122.png||||||Takayuki VG-10 Hammered Damascus Kiritsuke 270mm||7398||resources > kiritsukeknife > ki24andab > ||Knife Types > Kiritsukes > Kiritsukes 240mm and Above > ||215.000||215.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||Introducing the Sakai Takayuki VG-10 Hammered Damascus Kiritsuke 270mm.

This results in a knife that favors less rocking motion. "Santoku" translates to Three Virtues.

There are good instructions on the box in English and we think this is the best little angle guide on the market currently. As you can see from the photo the guide has large ceramic bumpers that glide on the stone which helps prevent wearing away the plastic underneath. We recommend you use some blue painter's tape on the blade to prevent minor scratching of your knives where they contact the guide. This guide is set to only one angle that is specified on the packaging. Not for use on single bevel knives.

The blade is constructed with a softer stainless cladding to make it lighter and more resilient to shocks.

The sheep’s foot blade profile of a santoku lends it to chopping and push cutting techniques, as opposed to rocking. While you can use a rocking technique, it is just not optimal. Being only 165mm or about 6.5 inches long, this size will appeal to those who feel that a full size gyuto is just too unwieldy or cumbersome. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|tsg3misu27||item-1||solidtemplate||sujihiki270mm||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/tsunehisa-g3-migaki-sujihiki-270mm-88.png||||||Tsunehisa G3 Migaki Sujihiki 270mm||TG3M-S270||resources > sujihikis > sujihiki270mm > ||Knife Types > Sujihikis > Sujihiki 270mm > ||160.000||160.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||Introducing Tsunehisa's lovely sujihiki which uses G3 (Ginsan) stainless steel, known for its fine-grained high carbon composition.

The new range of Aogami Super knives is another testament to his skills as a knife maker. Aogami Super is one of the most popular high carbon steel alloys used in the making of Japanese knives. It possesses very high edge retention and fine edge capabilities. While wear resistance is average, it is quite easy to sharpen. It is a very reactive steel so wiping down and drying should be done after every use. The inner core of AS is clad in the san-mai style, with a softer stainless steel. This greatly increases corrosion protection which makes the knife so much easier to maintain.
The cladding is left with the forger’s carbon scale (kurouchi) and is then given a great looking hammered (tsuchime) finish. These two processes can reduce food stickage with certain products. As with all of Anryu-san’s knives, this has a well-executed grind and a nice standard of fit and finish.
Bunkas feature a relatively tall blade and a gently curved belly which makes for good hand to board clearance and application in all cutting styles. The pointed tanto style tip is great for detail work and getting into tight places.
The new line of knives coming from this master are fashioned from Aogami Super steel which has been hammer forged with a soft stainless steel cladding. This protects the core steel from corrosion and makes the blade more "forgiving" than the very hard core steel. The cladding (hagane) is enhanced with both kurouchi (blacksmith) and tsuchime (hammered) finishes.
180mm gyutos are about as short as gyutos get. They are a great option for those people who prefer compact knives or chefs with very restricted board space. This small-scale cutter is also a great choice for prepping garnishes and other smaller items. This knife will appeal to rock and push cutters alike. The blade is mated to a nice octagonal handle made from maple and black pakka wood.
These fine knives are made from the super steel knowns as AS, or Aogami Super. AS is a great steel for making knives as it has the highest wear resistance and lowest toughness of the three Blue Paper steels. Edge holding is truly outstanding and it is also easy to sharpen. AS contains the highest amount of carbon and chromium of the three alloys, which not only increases its hardness but also gives it a slight advantage over the others in terms of corrosion resistance. This is further enhanced with the addition of a stainless steel cladding. The cladding is somewhat “softer” or more ductile which further protects the inner cutting core.
The Anryu AS Gyuto 210mm is an average length knife capable of taking on almost any ingredient. It is a compact blade that will find favor with most home users and professionals working in tighter environments. It features a nice length flat heel which transitions to a gentle curved belly. It should please users of all styles of cutting techniques.
This new range of knives is based around the popular steel known as Aogami Super, or AS. The steel was originally developed for tool and knife makers and it has the highest wear resistance of all the blue steels. It contains the highest amount of carbon and chromium of the three alloys, which not only increases its hardness, but also gives it a slight advantage over the others in terms of corrosion resistance. This is further enhanced by the use of a stainless cladding with a hammered kurouchi finish.
This is standard gyuto fare in its proportions. The 244mm length is matched to a nice height of 51mm. It has a bit of a flat spot at the heel but it quickly transforms to a gentle belly from there on. The tip is well crafted and the blade is quite thin behind the edge. It is fairly stout at the spine and the primary bevel starts just about where the kurouchi finish ends.
The knife comes with a nicely finished octagonal handle made from maple and black pakka wood.
This is a new line of knives from this famed blacksmith. They are made from Aogami Super steel. AS steel is part of the Hitachi Blue Paper high carbon steel family, specifically developed for tools and knives. This steel has the highest wear resistance and lowest toughness of the three Blue Paper steels. Edge holding is truly outstanding and it is easy to sharpen too. It contains the highest amount of carbon and chromium of the three alloys which not only increases its hardness but also gives it a slight advantage of the others in terms of corrosion resistance. The inner core steel is clad with a soft stainless steel in the san-mai style of awase. This makes the knife easy to care for.
The Anryu AS nakiri is a pretty standard size for this style blade. It has a comfortable height of 52mm coupled to a blade length of 165mm. The edge has a nice gentle belly that will be especially appreciated by rocking style users.
The rustic kurouchi finish is a perfect look for this knife which is further enhanced with a nice octagonal maple handle with a black pakka wood ferrule.

The blade features Aogami Super steel known for its wear resistance, excellent edge retention, and easy sharpening. The AS core is clad in a softer stainless steel for added strength and protection against corrosion. The blade has a thin heel and a standard santoku design with a sheep's foot tip and curved belly. The handle is made of octagonal rosewood and black pakka wood, complementing the knife's overall design. As with all Ikeda-san's knives, it has a well-executed grind and is of high standard in fit and finish. However, the reactive AS core edge requires proper care and maintenance after each use.
They are made from Aogami Super steel which is part of the Hitachi Blue Paper high carbon steel family, specifically developed for tools and knives. This steel has very high wear resistance and is known for its excellent retention and fine edge capabilities. It is also quite easy to sharpen. The blade is clad in a softer stainless steel which protects the inner core from corrosion, while adding strength and shock protection. But as Aogami Super is a reactive steel, wiping down and drying, especially the edge, should be done after every use.
The blade face is left with the carbon blacksmith scale, known as kurouchi, and given the great looking hammered finish so emblematic of Anryu knives. The lower blade road is satin finished to contrast with the exposed and polished AS cutting edge.
Sujihiki knives are Japanese carving knives with a double bevel (as opposed to a yanagiba, which is a single bevel blade). The name is derived from the Japanese words suji, which means tendon, and biki, which means pull. It is a perfect tool for slicing cooked proteins and soft foods like terrines and pates. It also substitutes well for a traditional yanagiba as a sushi knife. The sujihiki is much easier for many people to maintain and sharpen. It is also good for both left- and right-handed users.
The blade is mated to a nice handle made from maple and black pakka wood.
The blade is constructed from Hitachi Blue Paper #2 steel with a stainless steel cladding. This adds strength to the inner core while protecting it from corrosion. The stainless cladding is given that famous hammered finish. The core Blue #2 steel will take an extremely keen edge with ease and hold that edge for a long time. Even though it is wrapped in stainless steel, the exposed carbon core of the knife will discolor with normal use and could rust if abused. Keep it dry and clean and you are good to go!
This is a classic bunka in size and attributes: short but with a fine and versatile tip. Its height is tall in comparison to the blade length allowing for great hand clearance. The blade is well finished with a nicely radiused choil and polished corners and spine. It is matched to an oval handle made from rosewood with a pakka wood ferrule.
This is about the smallest size that gyuto style knives are made. In fact it could be considered part petty and part santoku, not just in dimensions but in abilities and feel. People who like a shorter blade will be intrigued by this knife as it serves so many purposes and is so adroit at many cutting and slicing tasks. It is also a great knife for use in restricted spaces or on small boards.
I highly recommend this knife and CKTG!
Happy cooking!
received fairly quick even via Chicago and dodgy Aus customs.
the knife I got is not as perfectly finished and masakage sharp as the one in Shaun’s video.
it has some choil and spine rough bits I suppose it looks identical to Steve G.s review video knife.
Beautiful knife however - and am very happy with the handle fit and finish and the service.
Cheers

This knife is constructed of a Hitachi Aogami #2 carbon steel core hardened to 63 HRC wrapped in stainless steel for easy maintenance. The core steel will take an extremely keen edge with ease and hold that edge for a long time. Mr. Anryu's Hammered line has built a reputation among Japanese knife enthusiasts for its high-performance grinds and rustic yet refined aesthetics. As this is a handmade knife, make allowances for variations in dimensions between knives. Please note that the carbon steel core of this knife will patina with normal use and can rust if neglected.
The honesuki is a Japanese version of a boning knife. It is quite different from a Western boning knife. This is mainly due to its triangular shape and the fact that it is a very stiff blade with very little flex. The honesuki works very well for deboning all kinds of proteins including poultry and typically has an asymmetrical edge. However, this knife is ground on both sides with a symmetrical 50/50 edge. Be warned that while it is a boning knife, it is not meant to cut through bones. It is made to cut through the joints of the bird. Due to its shape and height, the honesuki can also double up nicely as a utility or petty style of knife. Comes with a very nice oval rosewood and pakka wood handle.

The beautiful 120mm petty is a perfect blade for many tasks, including the processing of smaller ingredients, filleting, and making garnishes. It has a lovely slim tip, and a nicely rounded choil and spine. The classic hammered finish is perfectly executed, resulting in a knife that looks as good as it performs. A traditional oval handle made from rosewood and ebony completes the package.

The Anryu Kurouchi Damascus Bunka knife, a testament to their craft, is meticulously forged using Shirogami #2 high carbon steel, enhanced by a multilayered iron cladding. The hardened steel, with a Rockwell hardness of 61-62 HRC, is particularly prized for its exceptional edge longevity and straightforward sharpening. Known as White #2, this steel is highly favored among blade aficionados. The exterior layer, referred to as the jigane, boasts a traditional kurouchi coating, imparting a distinctive rustic aesthetic. This coating gradually transitions into a beautifully layered, or suminagashi, blade road. While this knife is undeniably attractive, it is also reactive, necessitating careful cleaning and thorough drying both during and post-use to maintain its quality.
The bunka is a really versatile blade that is growing in popularity in the West with both professional and home chefs. The short length and tall blade combine to create a knife with very broad uses and appeal. They can be used to replace a short gyuto or santoku, especially when you favor push cutting and chopping techniques. Of course, the great-looking reverse tanto profile also offers a compelling aesthetic especially coupled to the finely crafted rosewood oval handle with black pakka wood ferrule.
He makes this lovely gyuto from a multi-layer soft iron cladding over an inner core of White #2 high carbon steel. This is a reactive blade and will require care with cleaning and drying between uses. It is a great-looking item featuring a well-done kurouchi finish which transforms beautifully into the suminagashi multi-layer part of the blade road.
The blade is quite thick out of the handle but it then thins out nicely to the extremely fine tip. The choil area has the characteristic Anryu curve which makes for a very comfortable pinch grip. This is enhanced by the perfect balance point just forward of the heel. They are ground quite thin at the edge which adds to the outstanding cutting abilities of this well-made knife. The cutting edge profile is quite curved but will still appeal to most users whether employing rocking of push cutting styles.
We are really pleased to be able to offer these lovely knives to our customers. They are well made, handsome to behold, and an overall great value.
After 50 years, Anryu san has retired and given over his business to his longtime, trusted apprentice, Ikeda san.
There are two main styles of nakiri. The most popular is the Kakugata which is featured here. It has a very square looking blade with a flat profile. The Higashgata, or Kantogata, is less common and it features a rounded heel and curved cutting edge.
After 50 years, Anryu san has retired and given over his business to his longtime, trusted apprentice, Ikeda san.
Their exceptional gyuto knife is crafted from multi-layer soft iron cladding, encasing a White #2 high carbon steel core. This reactive blade necessitates diligent maintenance, requiring prompt cleaning and drying after use. The aesthetic kurouchi finish seamlessly transitions into the suminagashi multi-layer on the blade road, lending the knife a distinguished appearance.
The Anryu Kurouchi Damascus Santoku is constructed from Shirogami #2 high carbon steel with a multilayer soft iron cladding. The steel is hardened to 61-62 HRC. Shirogami #2 or White #2 is a high carbon steel that is liked for its high level of edge retention and relative ease of sharpening. The outer layer, or jigane, is finished with a rustic kurouchi coating. The kurouchi finish fades into a nice layered or suminagashi blade road. This is a good-looking knife—but it is reactive and will require care with cleaning and drying during and after use.
This hand-hammered santoku is thin at the edge and comes out of the box fairly sharp. A few strokes on a fine stone will reveal a razor-like edge. The choil and neck area are nicely finished, as is the basic but well-made oval rosewood handle.
There is a lot of knife here for the money. Lovely looks, a light, well-balanced feel, and excellent fit and finish sum up this high-value santoku. Check out this great performer. You’ll be glad you did.
You may find the occasional knife where the magnetism will hinder your ability to sharpen. So instead of permanently attaching the magnet under the table, we found a way that allows the user to quickly and easily activate and deactivate the magnet by raising and lowering it, no tools required. Use the magnetic knife sharpener when it's helpful, lower the magnet when it's not. Quick and simple. Just the way we like it.
Installing the Edge Pro Apex table magnet accessory on new machines is VERY simple. The housing press fits (tightly) under the table. For older models, you may have to replace the leg screws (which will be provided) to make room for the magnet.
***ONLY FITS THE APEX MODEL****
This was the third installment in the set with the bester 500 an 2k.
The stone feels soo smooth and leaves a nice shiny polish.
I would have to agree that this stone puts on a 8k like finish.
No soaking either,just wet it and get to work. great stone to finish on.
Brought a fantastic finish and edge to my Moritaka kurouchi 270mm gyuto,Hattori HD and Konouke white #2 sujihiki with consistent and precise results.
No need to use force with this stone,it does all the work for you in a flash (provided you have decent sharpening skills).
It does exactly what its supposed to do,and brings the characteristics of an 8000grit stone to your knives too.
Thank you Arayashima,and thank you Mark for bringing this great product to the site.
polish and cut with soaking is much faster with minimal effort.
splash and go you see how hard the stone actually is,not as great a polish without soaking though.
Overall a great 6k stone,more reaching into the 8k stone area,compared to king stones
I like it much better than other finishing stones I have tried.
it gives a smooth,sharp and durable edge,the feel is "organic" compared to most ceramic stones and it cuts fast but cleanly. works great for splash and go.
only "issue" so far is that it will stick a little if using a wide are on the back of a blade,but that’s normal for most fine stones that aren’t very soft.
someone said that is sticks to the DMT plate,I find it sticks to a Iwood plate also,but doesn’t stick at all to the Atoma plates.
I’ve sold off all my other fine stones,don’t need more than this one.
So it is with some pride that we now introduce the new Richmond Artifex II knife line. Our first offering is a very useful and universally liked 210mm gyuto. The new Artifex knives continue the tradition of using tough materials that can cope with the daily routines found in the busiest kitchens. To this end, we have continued with the proven G-10 handles but now mated to a blade made from Carpenter BD1N stainless steel. The blades are made in China and we export the BD1N steel from the USA to the factory so they can make them with good steel to our specifications.
Heat treated to HRC 63, this steel will take a nice edge and hold it exceptionally well. It is also really easy to maintain. This is perfect for the demands of pro cooks who don't have the time to constantly sharpen or wipe down their knives during their shifts. Coupled to the virtually indestructible G-10 handle scales, these knives are nearly indestructible and will provide line chefs with a comfortable, long-lasting kitchen cutter at a really attractive price.
Rating is lower because the diamonds are in metal that rusts. I must have stored the stone moist,because I found rust spots in between the diamonds after a few days.
Also,the finish of mine was not great. A ridge of metal at the top was elevated higher than the diamonds. No biggy,but I expected a bit better for this price.

The diamonds are arranged on the pad in a dot matrix pattern, allowing for a much more consistent and even scratch pattern on the knife edge. The diamond plates are an excellent alternative to powered devices such as grinding wheels or sanding belts, due to the reduced heat build-up. The layout of the diamonds keeps the plate from sticking to the stone during the flattening process.

Please don't microwave. We recommend hand washing and towel drying for long lasting use.
So,through experience I can confidently say that learning on cheaper lesser grit stones how to hold your knife and stroke it during sharpening is invaluable. Tread gently on polishing stones as they are easier to gouge. Cheers!
I am new to sharpening but the bestor 1200 seems like a winner as it is hard,double sided,and I can leave it in a soak without having to baby sit it before sharpening.
My only complaint is that I am new to sharpening and I think I remove too much metal with it. That is my fault while learning the technique. It is not the stones fault... it is mine.
I am of the opinion that I was recommended a very good stone for what it is. I just have to learn to use it better.
Sharpening is learning.

This cleaver from CCK is called the Bone Chopper for very good reason. It is perfect for hacking through bones or even whole carcasses. Whether you are breaking down a cow or a deer or processing a pile of bones for your next stock pot, you need a knife with a big thick blade that can take an edge yet is soft enough to resist chipping. The Bone Chopper is made from a carbon steel that will provide those attributes. Because it's carbon it does require careful cleaning and drying after every session.
The blade is attached to a wooden barrel-shaped handle that is functional rather than pretty. But that is what this knife is all about. Function. And that function is simple. To chop bones. Easily, efficiently, and cleanly.
PLEASE NOTE WE CAN'T DO FINISH SHARPENING ON THIS ONE.
**This cleaver DOES NOT fit the cleaver saya or the tiger wood cleaver stand. We recommend a felt protector.

The CCK Small Stainless Cleaver is a perfect tool for professional and amateur chefs looking for a maintenance free Chinese style cutter. This is designed as a vegetable slicer. It is not a heavy duty cleaver that would be used to chop bones and hard items. The blade is quite thin for this type of knife and it makes for a very easy-to-use processor of ingredients.
The CCK Small Stainless Cleaver is a great introduction to the fascinating world of Chinese cleavers. You will be amazed at how efficient and controllable it is. Around the world, many cooks say a cleaver is their number one knife for the majority of their cutting, slicing, and chopping duties. Try one out and you might agree! Highly recommended. Our cleaver saya does NOT fit this knife--it's WAY too big.
Oh yeah if you are a cleaver guy forget the small and get this one you will be glad you did.
A few Days after the Order,the Cleaver arrived at my Home in Germany.
It exactly like i wanted it,very,very thin Blade measuring 231x110mmm,After a few strikes on my 1000/3000 Combo Stone it achieved a pretty good edge,sharp enough to be cut newspaper. Edge Holding Capability is comparable with the famous german Herder Windmuehle Carbon Knives,good but not as good as Jap Hagane Steel.
Recently,i took it on the Stones again in Order to remove some of the rustprotecting Laquer and smoothed the Edges of the Spine. Now it has taken a nice Patina,which i prefer on a Carbon Knife.
This Knife has become on of my Favorites in my Selection among my traditional Japanese Knives.
Great Buy,takes a great Edge,retains it well,easy to sharpen,kick ass Profile => highly recommended !!
Cons: The blade got a little bit of rust after the second wash. So now I wash the blade then put a light coat of olive oil to help keep it from rusting any further.
Of course they are the default chef knife in China and other Asian countries. As such they obviously are able to do everything the western or Japanese chef knife can do.
What is amazing is that despite their size and weight, they can process the smallest of ingredients with a deft action. This particular example is even more adept at these delicate tasks as it comes with a rather thin blade compared to other cleavers of this size. The blade also takes a really impressive edge.
It’s a carbon steel construction so rusting and corrosion can take place if you let them stay wet or dirty.
Once you get to use and appreciate the subtleties of the Chinese cleaver you might also become a proponent of the school that believes that this is the only knife a chef needs for the vast majority of his or her daily cutting requirements.
This cleaver does not fit the cleaver saya that we sell.

Unlike the Dexter-Russell Chinese chef’s knife,which is also a good knife,this CCK KF1303 is a very thin blade knife. As such it is very light and can slice food with very little resistance. Excellent for most food preparation works. On the other hand,it does not have the same toughness of the thicker blade Dexter knife. I would not recommend using this thin blade knife to cut very hard objects like bones or heavy duty works.
The CCK KF 1303 does not have good finish. I bought two of these. One has a very small crack (1mm) on the handle and the other one has a very small bent at the tip of the spine. Neither has any real impact on performance,but potential buyers should not expect a great finish knife.
It makes food prep fun again.
As others have said,the fit and finish of this knife is not good,but for the price,you just cant beat it.
Buyers should be aware that this KF1303 is a carbon steel knife,so it can rust and it does require more care than a stainless steel knife. In addition,it is a thin blade knife,so it cannot work on heavy duty stuffs.
The knife is just great,especially for its ridiculous low price. It out-performs knives which are twice and three times of its price.
Thanks to my cleaver buddy Salar B. for purchasing this for me. I thought my small was a good size but it’s nothing to the Large CCK he has. Thanks again buddy.
Let me add myself to the ’looks rustic’ crowd. It looks like a lawnmower blade thinned to cardstock proportions,but oh,is it ever sharp. Out of the box,it was as sharp as I’ve ever gotten a knife,though I will have to smooth the secondary bevel to make the knife really perform. That said,tomatoes,onions,rhubarb,carrots,celery,all fell to this new weapon today. It’s also very good for firm cheese and chocolate.
The one problem is that it practically takes two hands to release it from the magnetic knife strip,but I’ll get used to that.
I may be done with Stain resistant steel forever. Even with the rustic finish,I prefer this look to the shiny blades right next to it.
Thanks,Mark for providing this service so well. Once again I had my knife less than 72 hours after ordering,and I live 1000 miles away.
Edge shape is pretty flat and makes sharpening easy. Handle was good,I just added a thin coat of wax.
It was also a bit bigger than I expected,and I’m glad I didn’t get the larger CCK on here as I think it would have been too big for my needs.
Love the profile on the blade. Thinned mine just a little and couldn’t be happier for the price.
Holds a nice sharp edge,and I smile ever time it falls cleanly though carrots and onions.
There are two minor complaints. One is the decision to round out the edge. Though they justify this by saying the edge would otherwise catch on the cutting board,that’s really only a result of improper use. I think a flat edge is better on a cleaver,because when you’re chopping fast you don’t want the outer edges of the blade to leave ingredients uncut.
The second is in how well the edge holds. It does well for the value,but if you’re using the knife in a professional environment,heavy use will quickly dull the blade. If this is important to you,invest in a Japanese-made Chinese chef’s knife,though if you’re only using this at home I doubt you’ll have anything to complain about!
For 35 bucks though,these complaints are really minor...
great product.
This CCK Small cleaver was used and recommended in Christopher Kimball's Milk Street Magazine, and sales have gone way up as a result. A small Chinese chef’s knife is called a Sangdao and is an excellent cleaver at an even greater price. It is made from carbon steel with a tough kurouchi finish. It requires extra care to keep from rusting, so it is vital to keep it clean and dry between uses.
The CCK Small Cleaver is our best-selling cleaver at CKTG. It is a wonderful introduction to the world of Chinese chef knives. The blade is relatively thin for a knife of this type and has a sharp edge. There is a very slight belly to the edge profile, which reduces the chance of the end sticking into the cutting board.
Sangdao are the perfect knives to quickly and precisely chop, julienne, and slice meats and vegetables, but they will not cut any bones...so please don’t try!
This is a great choice for those wanting their first cleaver or chefs looking for a workhorse for vegetable prep.
Chan Chi Kee (CCK) is a kitchen knife and supply company located in Hong Kong. They supply the local and international market with a full range of kitchenware and cutlery. They manufacture all of their cutlery in-house using fine steels and traditional methods, honed over decades.
The CCK Small Stainless Cleaver is a perfect tool for professional and amateur chefs looking for a maintenance free Chinese style cutter. This is designed as a vegetable slicer and chopper. It is not a heavy duty cleaver that would be used to chop bones and hard items. The blade is quite thin for this type of knife and it makes for a very easy to use processor of small to medium ingredients.
The CCK Small Stainless Cleaver is a great introduction to the fascinating world of Chinese cleavers. You will be amazed at how efficient and controllable it is. Around the world, many cooks say a cleaver is their number one knife for the majority of their cutting, slicing, and chopping duties. Try one out and you might agree! Highly recommended.
Important! Please dry your knives thoroughly before putting them into these guards. Otherwise, you may trap the water in the guard and it will rust your knives.
Also,cheaper than ordering from Japan! Thanks,Mark!
Great stuff,especially for the money.
I don’t know what I’d do without this stuff to keep my white #2 steel knives rust-free!
I only got my gyuto 2 weeks ago & the oil 1 week ago & it’s holding up nicely so far & it doesn’t feel like it would expire anytime soon.
Overall,I agree with the other reviews. It’s going to last a good,long time for me as a casual home cook.
In the end,the Tsubaki oil has proven indistinguishable from USP mineral oil in my use,aside from the slight difference in consistency,I am glad to have tried this product,but in the future,I will reserve this oil for occasional use until I can tell a difference.
Virgin organic Camellia oil, commonly known as "tea seed oil", is a carrier vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the Camellia oleifera evergreen plant. It is yellow in color with a light, nutty flavor. Camellia oil is the main cooking oil used in many Asian countries. It has fewer saturated fatty acids and more monounsaturated fatty acids than olive oil, has high levels of vitamin E and contains polyphenol antioxidants. Camellia oil is also used for cosmetic applications and is often used in soaps and creams. Because the oil is easily absorbed without a greasy feeling, it is often used to keep skin hydrated as well as condition and strengthen hair.
Highly recommended.

*Our cleaver saya does not fit this cleaver due to the height of the blade.
It’s performed fantastically for tip repair. Cuts very quickly,with a decently even scratch pattern. By the same key,it brings up swarf instantly on a moderately hard stone.
Each plate did have one tiny flaw,a raised bit at some point along the edge. It’s not a dealbreaker (I filed it right off) but it will need to be addressed before flattening finer stones. For the price,I think it’s perfectly acceptable.
An all around great value,and a must have for anyone serious about keeping there stones flat.
Just posting this review so people know that there is the chance that this diamond plate can arrive in an unusable state for stone flattening.
I would suggest paying the extra for a DMT or,the one up from that’s name escapes me for the moment. Especially if you live overseas like I do.

The Japanese call finish sharpening Honbatsuke. "Hon" means real, formal, professional, and genuine. "Ba" means edge and "Tsuke" means making or finishing in this case. In short, Honbatsuke means sharpening or finishing the edge.
Simply purchase this service along with the knife or knives you want us to sharpen and we'll sharpen them by hand using our typical progression of stones and strops. **Please note that the sharpening service is $15.95 per knife so if you want more than one knife sharpened, you need to order more than one service. Double bevel knives only. No serrated knives. This service does not include resetting bevels. We do not finish sharpen the CCK Butcher's Knife and Big & Li'l Rhino. It is too time-consuming.
If you have special instructions please let us know in the "Comments Box" and we'll try to accommodate your request.
Also please note that we will sharpen the knife evenly on both sides unless instructed otherwise. We will give priority to those of you who purchase this service and will attempt to ship your order within 1-2 business days. Usually, we do it the same day if you order early enough.

Equip yourself with the best! Transform your cooking experience with this comprehensive culinary school set. Unleash your culinary potential today!||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|saoksh||item-1||solidtemplate||giftideas||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/sakagen-okubo-shears-79.png||||||Crane Okubo Shears 180mm||TR-OKUBO||knife-accessories > giftideas > ||Accessories > Gift Ideas > ||42.000||42.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||These shears are traditionally used for bonsai but a growing number of pro and home cooks use them as kitchen shears. The material is used is hi-carbon steel including vanadium and is similar to Shirogami though Shirogami does not include vanadium. The hardness is about HRC60. Crane is a top-quality producer of these traditional shears. They're nicely decorative and very good shears.
Th V2 Classic line of knives boasts classic Japanese shapes with flatter profiles, ensuring an improved level of sharpness. Please remember these are carbon steel knives and will rust without proper care (wipe them dry after use).
We asked him to make us some unusual shapes that resemble traditional knives, and this fun bunka-style blade is one of his responses. The blade runs approximately 180mm at the edge and has a curved belly starting just a couple of inches from the heel. Every blade is going to be slightly different in these dimensions.
Let’s make no mistake here. These knives have pits, scratches, hammer marks and other cladding imperfections! Rustic is a word that definitely comes to mind when looking at them. But the other word that comes out when you experience them is SHARP! These knives have a fantastic edge that if not perfectly out of the box, gets there quickly with a few strokes on your favorite stone.
While the handle is also not perfect, it actually feels really nice in hand. A bit of sanding and some varnish or oil will take it to a very acceptable level. We think these knives are perfect for projects, new sharpeners, or anyone looking for a really low-cost cutter that has personality and uniqueness in spades. Watch the video below to see how they're made. Please remember these are made under crude conditions with used steel, so you should expect that they're rough and have imperfections that exceed most of our other knives. Expect dents, scratches, odd sizes, different handles, etc. If you're into great fit and finish or are overly particular, run away! If you want to try an excellent piece of living history and you're not uptight about a crude but excellent cutting tool, then you'll love it.
The kurouchi finish is now very smooth and long-lasting. The grinding is far more sophisticated. And the handle is a vast improvement over the originals. These are now very acceptable knives with surprisingly good edge geometry. We are still amazed at how they take an edge after sharpening.
As the name suggests, the blades are made from old automotive leaf springs which, themselves, are usually made from 5160 carbon steel. This steel is highly regarded in the knife industry and many leading blacksmiths use leaf springs for their custom blades.
This is the Naht family's first attempt at a gyuto and we are extremely pleased with the cutting performance. The heat treatment is also of a very respectable quality. Out of the box or with a quick trip to your stones, this knife will cut!
So if you are looking to enter the world of carbon steel knives or you want to get into sharpening, we highly recommend this fun and functional knife. Our customers are certainly responding very favorably for all the right reasons!

Honesuki knives are boning knives specifically designed for parting out the poultry. These blades are stiff and robust with pointed tips and a triangular profile. This design enables the user to get into the tightest places and strip the meat from the bone with a precision no other blade can achieve. It is a knife similar to the torigarasuki/garasuki.
The kurouchi finish on the blade is smooth and well-finished. And while the fit and finish are not stellar, the actual grinds of these low-cost blades are rather special. The heat treatment is also of very respectable quality. These basic blades will make a great intro knife for a new chef, a project knife for budding sharpeners, or home cooks looking for their first experience with carbon blades.
The Daovua interpretation of this style blade has a more pronounced belly than most other kiris, making it a good choice for push-and-pull-cutting and rocking techniques. However, the extended edge length also makes it a very workable slicer.
We believe these knives are perfect for new users, projects, budding sharpeners, or anyone looking for a really well-priced cutter with personality and uniqueness in spades. Watch the video below to see how they're made. Please remember that these are made under crude conditions with used steel, so you should expect that they're rough and have imperfections that exceed most of our other knives. All measurements are approximations.
We recently came across a young blacksmith who works with his family in Vietnam making knife and tool blades out of old car parts. This barefoot smith uses old car and truck leaf springs as his source material. This is not as crazy as it sounds as many top-flight blacksmiths dip into this deep well to make their highly prized blades. Unlike these guys, the Nhat family makes more down-to-earth creations that are more function than form.
The first knife we had him make for us was a nakiri. We sold out of the first shipment immediately, but they are now back in stock. It is important to remember that these knives are very basic in terms of fit and finish. They are certainly not beauty queens. But what they are is supremely capable cutters with an edge geometry that is surprisingly good. The heat treatment, likewise, is a very respectable quality. Out of the box or with a quick trip to your stones, this knife will cut!
It has a fairly curved belly for a nakiri, which usually are quite flat. The blade is average in length at about 175mm and is quite tall at 60mm. The kurouchi finish is quite flat and adds to the rustic nature of this fun and very functional knife.
The kurouchi finish is now very smooth and long-lasting. The grinding is far more sophisticated. And the handle is a vast improvement over the originals. These are now very acceptable knives with surprisingly good edge geometry. We are still amazed at how they take an edge after sharpening.

We came across a charming, young, bare-footed blacksmith from Vietnam who was not only yearning to offer us his unusual knives but also to try to make use of our experience in making some to our specifications. This was a chance not to be missed. Following some interesting first attempts, we are now seeing the fruits and rewards of this partnership.
These are pretty basic blades that will make a great intro knife for a new chef, a project knife for budding sharpeners, or home cooks looking for their first experience with carbon blades. But while the fit and finish are not stellar, the actual grinds of these low-cost blades are rather special. The heat treatment is also of a very respectable quality. These knives are sharp and they will cut! Some of them might need a touch on your favorite stone, but a few passes and you will have a razor of a knife on your hands.

Just watching the video below should be enough to get you intrigued about this knife and its maker. We originally purchased a handful of knives from him to give our forum members a chance to try them. Well, the response was overwhelmingly positive…in the main! So we are having him make more for us using our members’ input to improve the product.
The knives do not possess the highest level of fit and finish. They are not made from exotic materials. And they are as much a curio as a desirable kitchen knife. But what they do possess is a character and an ability to cut that is as good as many knives we sell.
The blades themselves are fashioned from old leaf springs. These auto cast-offs are actually a great source of knife steel, usually being made from 5160 steel. In fact, many highly regarded US custom knife makers use this steel source for their expensive creations. The edge profile is all belly. There is not a flat spot to be seen! But the blade is super thin and ground really well. With a height of 90mm and an edge length of about 210mm, it resembles a classic Chinese cleaver ratio.
Putting aside the less-than-perfect finish, one thing everyone agrees on is their cutting ability. These blades are sharp and take an incredible edge. For someone looking for a unique version of a cleaver, a fun project knife, or a sharpening practice knife, the Daovua is a perfect and high-value choice. Please remember these are made under crude conditions with used steel so you should expect that they're rough and have imperfections that exceed most of our other knives. Expect dents, scratches odd sizes, different handles, etc. If you're into great fit and finish or are overly particular run away! If you want to try a cool piece of living history and you're not uptight about a crude but cool cutting tool then you'll love it.
We discovered Daovua, a Vietnamese company, just over a year ago. And while their first blades could best be described as project knives, input from our customers and us, and the blacksmith’s willingness to listen and learn, has resulted in a huge improvement in quality.
The kurouchi finish is very smooth and long-lasting. The grinding is really sophisticated. And the handle is really well made and quite lovely to hold. These are very acceptable knives with surprisingly good edge geometry. We are still amazed at how they take an edge after sharpening.
This is the first steak knife that they have made for us and you can color us impressed!
So when you have your friends over for a steak dinner next time, surprise them with these works of art that have come from nothing more than a junked old car and a few pieces of wood!
Their blades are fashioned from recycled leaf springs taken from old cars and trucks. This is not as bizarre as it sounds as many top-flight blacksmiths dip into this widely available source to make their highly prized blades. But unlike these fancy and often expensive works of art, the Nhat family makes more down-to-earth creations that are more function than form. Make no mistake, these knives look like they came out of a charcoal fire with hammer marks, scratches, pitting and other cladding flaws. If you like good fit and finish don't buy this.
This knife is a classic nakiri in shape and profile but with a much taller stance. It is almost a cross between a cleaver and nakiri except that it is very thin and made to cut vegetables of all kinds with ease. One outstanding attribute of these blades is how they take an incredibly sharp edge.
So for someone seeking a unique version of a nakiri, the Daovua Tall Nakiri is a perfect and high-value choice. Please remember these are made under fairly rough conditions with recycled steel, so you should expect that they will have imperfections that you will not see in our other knives. But this should not dissuade anyone looking for a low-priced kitchen knife that is exceedingly sharp and rather unique.
A young barefoot bladesmith we discovered working in Vietnam uses this interesting source to make some very funky and fun blades for us. And our customers are full of praise for many of their attributes. But let’s get this out of the way—one of these attributes is not fit and finish! They are rough and ready with an emphasis on rough. These are basic blades that will make a great project knife for budding sharpeners or new chefs looking for something to play with. But while the F & F leaves room for improvement the actual grinds of these budget blades are rather special. These knives are sharp and they will cut! Some of them might need a touch on your favorite stone, but a few passes and you will have a razor of a knife on your hands.
The profile of this tall petty is as rounded as we've seen, so it will resonate with the rockers out there. It is a monster at chopping herbs and other small ingredients. Like the blade, the handle is not the best in the industry but with a bit of sanding and maybe some varnish and you will have a grip that is easy and secure in your hands.
So if you seek a fun project knife or a cheap and cheerful small ingredient chopper, the Daovua might just be all you need. Plus you get to tell a great story about it and its makers!
For over a year we have been buying knives from a company in Vietnam that we discovered by pure chance. We started off with a very simple and very rough santoku. But during that time we have seen a huge improvement in the knives they send us and an ever-increasing diversity to those knives in terms of styles and profiles.
Enter the Kiri Cleaver! This unique blade is basically a kiritsuke-tipped cleaver. It has a fairly substantial curve to the edge, making it a rocker’s dream. But the tanto tip makes it a better choice for more delicate slicing and food prep. Also, the reverse angle tip means there is a lower spine-to-edge ratio. Less spine, less weight. In this case we think it represents almost a 2oz saving over a regular cleaver of similar dimensions! (Please note that all measurements are approximate.)
The blades themselves are fashioned from old leaf springs. These auto cast-offs are a great source of knife steel, usually made from 5160 steel. A well-finished and good-looking octagonal handle finishes off this unusual but efficient cutting tool.
Gabe comes from a culinary background so he designs and grinds his knives for peak performance. It's mono steel construction using the highly regarded 80crv2–his favorite steel. It’s a low alloy tool steel fairly similar to 5160 toughness with more carbon and similar edge retention to 52100 ball bearing steel. HRC is 61. This was chosen as the preferred steel by our forum members in a poll taken earlier this year. The basic profile is that of a standard filet knife.
The knife has a full tang which is beautifully shaped to allow for a very comfortable and attractively sculpted handle, in this case made from G10. The blade is finished to an extremely high standard as is the handle, resulting in a very unique knife package made for you by a true artisan of the forge. It includes the leather sheath pictured.
The gyuto being featured here is a beautiful example of his artistic and blacksmithing skills. It is made from one of his favorite steels, 80CRV2, which he hand-forges into shape in the old tradition, with a hammer! The knife is a mono-steel construction, so it has no lamination. It has a beautiful grind resulting in a knife that is not quite a laser yet is thin and fast in hand. The blade is belt finished.
The profile is quite flat to just over the halfway point and then transitions into a nice gentle belly to the very fine tip. This is Gabe's take on the classic French profile that is very popular with many chefs.
This custom knife will perform as well as it looks. Highly recommended.
This mono steel blade using the highly regarded 80crv2 which is his favorite steel. It’s a low alloy tool steel fairly similar to 5160 toughness with more carbon and similar edge retention to 52100 ball bearing steel. HRC is 61. There is a nice flat area from the heel for the push cutters out there.
The knife has a full tang which is beautifully shaped to allow for a very comfortable and attractively sculpted handle, in this case made from a double-dyed burl. The blade is finished to an extremely high standard as is the handle, resulting in a very unique knife package made for you by a true artisan of the forge.
Gabe is a recent winner of the highly prestigious competition, Forged in Fire. This is no game show. Contestants have to do things that normal blacksmiths can only aspire to. Winning this contest is high praise indeed.
80crv2 is his favorite steel to work with. It’s a low alloy tool steel fairly similar to 5160 toughness with more carbon and similar edge retention to 52100. The HRC on this knife is 61.5. We anticipate that these one-off knives will find homes very quickly, so to avoid disappointment get your Doberman now!

MagnaCut is a proprietary steel type developed by Crucible Industries in collaboration with knifemaker and metallurgist Larrin Thomas. It was introduced to the market in 2021.
MagnaCut was designed to balance three primary qualities of knife steels: corrosion resistance, toughness, and edge retention. Traditionally, increasing one of these qualities meant decreasing at least one of the others, but MagnaCut aims to offer high levels in all three categories.
The design details, like the slightly straighter spine that raises the tip creating a more rounded edge from the mid-point, contribute to its versatility. It's perfect for a variety of cutting styles, including the push cutting technique thanks to a flat area near the heel.
Gabe makes knives that are not just functional tools, but unique pieces of craftsmanship, capturing the essence of a true artisan.

His father is the great Keijiro Doi, one of the knife world's true legends. Itsuo Doi worked alongside his father for almost 50 years producing the highest quality blades for chefs and collectors worldwide. Keijiro Doi was acclaimed for perfecting a very difficult low-temperature forging technique known as eyakidoshii and was a pioneer of forging Ao-ko No.2 (Blue Steel), which was previously thought to be an impossible task.
The medium-length gyuto featured here is constructed from Itsuo-san’s favorite steel, Aogami #2, which he hardens to 62+ HRC. The jigane is made using a soft iron applied in the san-mai style. Of course, as it is carbon steel, this knife is reactive and will need careful maintenance to prevent rusting. The exposed edge steel receives a beautiful high polish which contrasts well with the outer cladding’s satin finish.
This mid-sized 218mm knife has a slightly tall blade height. It is quite stout at the spine and very stiff at the tip. It boasts a symmetrical 50/50 edge and a really well-formed profile, suitable for both push and rocking cutters.
Until now, we have only carried knives made with single bevels, whether from father or son. So we are very excited to be able to offer the first double bevel gyuto built to the high standards of the Doi name.
One look at this knife and you know you are seeing something very special. We asked for a very classic and thin chef knife profile and Doi-san delivered in spades! The blade is long and slender, and so elegant. It is made from his favorite steel, Aogami #2, which he hardens to 62+ HRC. The outer cladding is a soft iron that is applied in the san-mai style. This knife is reactive and will need care in maintenance to prevent corroding. The inner core is given a classic Doi polish while the outer cladding receives a truly beautiful satin finish. Adding to the fine looks is some lovely hand-engraved Kanji. The knife is simply a thing of beauty.
We believe these are going to very popular around CKTG and at the relatively affordable price, are going to fly off the shelves! Very highly recommended.
Designed with a classic kengata profile, Doi-san has exceeded expectations. The blade, fashioned from his preferred Aogami #2 steel, boasts a remarkable hardness of 62+ HRC. The ni-mai gind style is artfully executed using traditional soft iron outer cladding. While this knife requires diligent care to prevent corrosion due to its reactivity, it has been polished to a mirror finish on the front side of the blade.
The Sakai Takayuki Hien Series represents the pinnacle of Japanese knife making.
At a blade length of 125mm and an overall length of 240mm, this knife is designed for precise control, with a comfortable weight of 6.4 oz (182g). The 4.4mm spine thickness and 32.6mm blade height at the heel provide a robust yet agile feel in hand. The knife’s even edge grind, complemented by a beautifully finished choil, ensures optimal cutting performance.
For added protection, the knife comes with a premium leather sheath, making it both practical and stylish for chefs and collectors alike.
Much better quality than other stones I have used,just remember to clean them often during use.
This is a new addition to our line of Diamond Matrix stones and it could easily qualify as one of the most versatile and important stones in your lineup. It can be used for moderate repair work and is also a great grit for setting a new edge bevel or starting a progression. The stone cuts fast and is a logical option for edge setting on harder steels like powder metal variants.
The cutting substrate is attached to a Precision CNC machined aluminum blank which reduces bow and twist and ensures a true and straight geometry. The stone formulation boasts high-quality tight particle size and an even distribution of monocrystalline diamond.

We highly recommend these tools! The Edge Pro Apex 1 sharpening set includes:
The Apex removes nicks and dings without distorting the knife edge. It creates no heat, preserving the temper of your knives. It sets up in seconds on any smooth surface. No power required and comes with a convenient carrying case. It requires no maintenance other than routine cleaning. The kit #3 includes 5 water stones covering the gamut from course to ultra fine. The package also comes with those small items needed to complete your sharpening tasks like a water bottle, micro fibre towel and a 1200 grit ceramic hone.
Though an Edge Pro edge will remain sharp much longer than a standard edge, even Edge Pro'd knives will become dull with use. Use the supplied Ceramic Sharpening Hone in between sharpening to rejuvenate your dull edge. The Ceramic Sharpening Hone will resharpen an Edge Pro'd knife in seconds and it will do it over and over again because it removes so little metal. You will find you can go through several different honing routines in between Edge Pro sharpening. The Ceramic Sharpening Hone is very fine 1200-grit and while pretty useless on factory edges, it is magic on Edge Pro'd knives. Whether you are a professional chef, hard working line cook or aspiring amateur, this kit is pretty much all you will need to keep your precious blades at their peak of performance. The Edge Pro Apex system is easy, safe and a huge saver of time. We highly recommend these wonderful sharpening kits.
If you’re inexperienced like myself and are looking to get rid of those dull edges,look no further!
The EdgePro is a worthwhile investment in my book!
Easy to use,very sturdy,well engineered/built,good instructions. Almost feels like cheating.
Used other angle guide systems for years,while gnashing my teeth about spending so much on a sharpening system. I should have just bought the Apex in the first place.
chefsknivestogo had my order out right away,well packaged,and order went very smoothly
The Edge Pro Apex offers a wide array of abrasive grits and sharpening angles, making it much more flexible in that regard than most clamp and v-rod systems. The cutting speed is also high with the very abrasive nature of the coarse hone and the ability to apply heavy pressure.
The sharpener allows for smooth variation of angle from 10 to 35 degrees per side. Several degree increments are marked out clearly (10,15,18,21,24), but you are not fixed at using these set angles. The five aluminum oxide water stones included in this kit are one inch wide and six inches long. They are mounted securely on the guide rod with the use of clamps between plastic molded grips. These clamps also serve as protection from the stone slipping off the knife and damaging the edge. As the blanks are not permanently fixed to the guide rod they can easily be used for field freehand honing if desired. The hones can also be reversed to slow down hollowing.
This “ultimate” kit includes everything you will need to sharpen and maintain your knives with a quick, safe and repeatability that will make you smile every time you use it.

This hoe is made with high-carbon steel clad with soft iron for added durability and prolonged sharpness when digging out weeds.

Updated with a thicker, more durable handle and an identifying slot, the 00 Gold is a nimble creature comfortable reaching into poaching liquid or blanching water, able to fetch tempura from the fryer, or even retrieve fish from a pan of hot butter, maybe to grab some braised greens, check if the beans are done, or to pluck an olive from the 12-quart container in the back of the walk-in. Inspired by the worn and tarnished steel often found at flea markets, and modeled after old American and European silhouettes the spoon is tumbled and unpolished. This creates a matte and imperfect material finish. Each piece is stamped and etched, then finished by hand on a lathe.

The well is formed deep to cradle liquid - one tablespoon exactly, to help with recipe continuity and reduce the amount of tools needed on hand--and pointed at the tip for precise pouring or basting. The handle is long enough to stir a braise or a pot of beans and nimble enough to sauce a plate. The lip is thin and flared to help scrape the corners of a pan or storage container.

The core steel is then covered in a layer of SUS 405 stainless steel. This imparts strength and lightness to the blade. It also makes maintenance easier than with a full carbon knife. The edge steel is still exposed so care is required to keep it from rusting. The cladding receives a very attractive nashiji or pear skin finish.
The primary grind of the blade starts high up on the face and imparts a great contrast to the nashiji portion. It is extremely well executed. The choil area has a very nice radius to it and together with the spine is polished to a high finish. The profile is nicely formed with a fairly flat main section giving way to a gentle curve towards the tip.
Fit and finish are of equally fine quality and this attribute is emphasized with the addition of a lovely octagonal handle with a buffalo horn ferrule. With a 50/50 grind, it is a good choice for both left- and right-handed users. The profile is quite curved for a gyuto and this makes it an especially good blade for rocking cutters. We really like this maker and their knives.
Gihei was established in 1928 specializing in the production of nakiri-type (three-laminate knives) kitchen knives—either as santoku, kakugata or kengata (also gyuto or gyutu). These knives were manufactured in the traditional way, and Gihei built a very a good reputation based on these principles.
Current owner Atsushi Hosokawa, together with his son, has made his goal to preserve the outstanding characteristics of Japanese knives, like high sharpness, hardness, and ease of sharpening, but to work on some of the admitted disadvantages, such as the relatively brittle edge and susceptibility to rust. The Blue #2 line of knives featured here are a result of that endeavor. The blade has excellent grinds. Heat treatment of the blue #2 steel is really well executed, resulting in a HRC of 62-63. Edge retention and ease of sharpening are very much a feature of these blades. The stainless cladding has a very nice nashiji finish which adds to the strength and overall stability of the knife. They are also easy to maintain.
This is a well-proportioned knife with a generous height and lovely profile. The oak octagonal handle with buffalo horn ferrule are finished to a high standard and complement the beautiful nashiji cladding perfectly. We do not have a saya that fits this knife.

The bunka featured here is constructed using HAP40 PM semi-stainless steel as the inner core (hagane) with a strong outer jigane made from stainless steel. HAP40 is a very good steel for kitchen knives, especially when heat treated to 65-66 HRC. The heat treatment applied to Gihei blades is of notable quality. This combination results in a knife that takes an excellent edge and stays sharp for a long time.
Bunka knives have gained in popularity since we started asking our blacksmiths to make them about eight years ago. They are prized for their handy, user-friendly size and chef’s knife-like versatility.
This knife is paired with a lovely oak octagonal handle with a burnt urushi finish.
The 210mm gyuto is a simple yet elegant knife. It is pretty light, even for a small gyuto, and features a lovely grind that starts relatively high on the blade. Fit and finish are of equally fine quality, and this attribute is emphasized with the addition of a lovely semi-custom urushi octagonal handle. Therefore, it is a good choice for both left- and right-handed users. The profile is quite curved for a gyuto, and this makes it a good blade for rocking cutters.
This all-around great knife is perfect for users looking for a smaller chef-type knife that will hold its edge for an incredibly long time.

This knife takes a very sharp edge and holds it for a long time. The blade profile is very flat, even for a nakiri, with a small radius right at the tip end for smaller rock-chopping tasks.
The core HAP40 steel is wrapped in a stainless steel outer layer to aid strength and wear resistance. The cladding is nicely polished, together with the lovely, semi-custom oak octagonal handle with an urushi finish.
As mentioned, the blade is quite thin with virtually no taper. The height at the heel is about 50mm, which is slightly less than average for a nakiri of this length. Fit and finish are of a high standard, which, combined with its other fine attributes, qualify the Gihei HAP40 nakiri as a great value.
Petty knives are small utility knives of Japanese design. They can vary significantly in profile and size, going from 75mm to 210mm. Petty knives are similar to the typical western paring or utility knife and are adept at many small, detailed cutting tasks. They also excel at preparing garnishes and other artistic endeavors.

This santoku is paired with a lovely oak octagonal handle with burnt urushi finish.
Gyuto knives are basically the Japanese version of a western chef knife with a few minor modifications. First, most Gyutos do not have a traditional Western bolster that runs down the base of the heel. Some also have traditional Japanese style handles and are called Wa-Gyutos. Japanese Gyutos are often made of thinner, harder steel which many professionals like because the knives can be sharpened to a steeper, sharper edge and the knives don't wedge through food as much because the blade doesn't push through food as much as thicker knives.||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/gyutos270mm.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|hand-held-sharpeners||item.||solidtemplate||knife-accessories||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/hand-held-sharpeners-71.png||||||Hand Held Sharpeners||||knife-accessories > ||Accessories > ||||||||||||||||0||1||0||0||||edgeproapex1 edgeproapex3 edgeproapex4 to ||||Here is our current selection of sharpening jigs and hand held sharpening machines.

Elevate your dining experience with this precision-crafted steak knife, featuring a sharp 115mm edge. Designed to effortlessly glide through your favorite cuts, this knife offers a perfect balance of elegance and functionality, making it an essential addition to any table setting. The wood is made with some beautiful pieces of cocobolo.

This makes it an ideal choice for a paring knife that needs to maintain a sharp edge for precision tasks.||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|haasbu16||item-1||solidtemplate||buknupto16||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/harukaze-as-bunka-165mm-314.png||||||Harukaze AS Bunka 165mm||HAS-B165||resources > bannobunkas > buknupto16 > ||Knife Types > Bunka Knives > Bunka Knives Up To 165mm > ||130.000||130.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||Aogami Super steel is an excellent carbon steel for use in kitchen knife blades. It is a top shelf steel developed by the Hitachi Metals Company. This high carbon alloy has several important elements added to the mix, including tungsten, vanadium, chromium, molybdenum, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, and silicon. Because of this, Aogami Super is a steel that can take and hold a very acute edge angle. It is also relatively easy to sharpen as compared to other carbon steels. We are seeing more and more makers add this great alloy to their knife catalogs. Remember carbon steel will rust if left to drip dry so wipe it dry with a dish towel after washing.
This is a classic bunka design. It is a multi-purpose knife, but with a slight vegetable bias. It's basically a santoku with an aggressive tip. It's a tall blade that offers increased finger-to-board clearance, while the shorter length makes it ideal for handling a wide variety of produce and proteins.
This fine bunka is made in Tosa especially for our CKTG customers. Anyone seeking a knife made from the best steel, with a great grind and an affordable price, can stop their search now!
Little needs to be said about AS, or Aogami Super. This Hitachi Metals steel is considered to be just about the best mix of high carbon steels used in the making of kitchen knives. All of the Hitachi Carbon steels can deliver amazing levels of sharpness and AS is about as good as it can get in this regard. Plus, it is very easy to sharpen, resulting in silky smooth cuts through any produce.
The Harukaze AS Morado Gyuto 210mm comes slightly over-sized in length at about 215mm on the edge. It is ground with an aggressive edge bevel and a steep angle at the cutting edge. This is a very sharp knife! It has a fairly thin blade that tapers down to a very thin tip. The blade is quite stiff with a nice neutral feel on the boards.
Fit and finish are outstanding for the price and the attractive oval handle made from walnut and maple is nicely installed.
These great looking knives are made from one of our all-time favorite steels, Aogami Super or Super Blue. This has to be one of the best alloys available for making kitchen knives. It is a hard steel that can be taken to a high Rockwell rate. But it is also one that will sharpen with ease while taking a razor-sharp edge. The inner core of AS steel is clad, san-mai style, with a softer stainless steel. The jigane is then given a great looking kurouchi and tsuchime finish. This makes for a very easy-to-maintain blade and a really smart looking knife.
In keeping with many blades from the Tosa region, this blade is slightly over length, coming in at 245mm. These are really well achieved grinds that look better than the price would suggest. The spine thickness is pretty constant along the length up to the thin tip.
A very nicely finished oval handle made from rosewood and maple completes this compelling picture.
Classic Japanese kiritsukes are single-beveled knives. Using a double bevel enhances durability at the edge and gives an ambidextrous personality to the blade overall. This style of blade is perfect for push and pull cutting, plus the flatter edge makes it a good substitute for a slicer. The knife will be a favorite with cooks who do a lot of protein work and veggie prep, as well as those who like to push rather than rock through large ingredients.
The blade of this kiri is made from Aogami Super, one of the most popular high carbon steel alloys used in the making of Japanese knives. AS possesses very good edge retention and fine edge capabilities. Wear resistance is average, but it is quite easy to sharpen. The core steel on this knife is hardened to about 63 HRC. It is reactive so wiping down and drying should be done after every use. The hagane is clad in the san-mai style, with a softer semi stainless steel. This greatly increases corrosion protection which makes the knife so much easier to maintain. It comes attached to a nice walnut oval handle with a maple ferrule. We don't have a saya that fits this knife--get the blade guard.

A very nicely finished oval handle made from rosewood and maple completes this compelling picture. These knives are excellent carving knives but since they're clad and very thin, they're not great at lateral tasks like skinning large fish. You can bend the blade.
AS is a steel derived from Aogami 2, or Blue # 2, which has been augmented with the addition of more carbon, chromium, and tungsten. It is regarded as the best of the Hitachi Blue paper carbon steels with regard to both edge retention and its ability to be sharpened to an acute angle. The core steel is hardened to 63 HRC and clad with soft stainless alloy which adds strength and protects the knife from reacting with acids or moisture.
Then is a vegetable cutter of the highest order. The flat edge and extra finger clearance make it a great choice for users who prefer push cutting over a rocking style. The thin blade is made to push through the hardest ingredients without wedging or fracturing the produce. This is a knife that takes a very sharp edge and holds it for a long time. The blade profile is very flat with a small belly and radius right at the tip end for smaller rock-chopping tasks. The blade is mated to a nice rosewood oval handle with a pakka wood ferrule.

135mm is a medium length blade for a petty. This makes it a versatile cutting tool around the kitchen. Board cutting and handheld processes are both within the scope of this blade, along with the ability to take on garnishes and artistic style cutting needs. This is a stout and rigid knife that flies though herbs and other small items with ease. The knife is finished off with a nice rosewood oval handle with a pakka wood ferrule.
This is a classic santoku design. It is a multi-purpose knife, but with a slight vegetable bias. Santoku means three virtues or to solve three problems. The virtues or problems are said to be slicing, dicing, and mincing. It is a tall blade that offers increased finger-to-board clearance, while the shorter length makes it ideal for handling a wide variety of produce and proteins.

This is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a high-quality knife at a reasonable price. It starts with a core steel (G3) with an HRC of 62, and then a stainless steel cladding with a nashiji (pear skin) finish is added to protect and beautify the blade. It is then finished off with a lovely oval magnolia wood handle with a pakka wood ferrule. As a bonus, it has a nice kanji engraving on both sides of the blade.
Be prepared to be surprised by the outstanding out-of-the-box edge on this very well-made gyuto. It has nice balance and light feel. It has an almost laser-like flat grind. The knife is a true laser with spine measuring 2mm. The grind is nice and thin behind the edge.
The overall fit and finish are of a high standard. It has a simple but very nicely executed walnut handle with maple ferrule in a comfortable oval shape.
Please note this knife has a nice, gapped machi on the handle install. Check the photos. It's not a mistake and it's called Tokyo style.

Featured here is an example of their line made from VG1 stainless steel. It is an easy to sharpen stainless mono steel that is not as hard or brittle as some other stainless steels. Of course, this is a very easy steel to maintain in terms of corrosion and rust prevention since it's fully stainless.
We are so impressed with the overall fit and finish of these knives given their very keen price. They have lovely walnut and maple handles that are semi oval and fully ambidextrous. Please note that the handle is installed with a matchi (the gap between the ferrule and the neck). This is not a mistake!
The grinds are really well done and the out of the box edge is about average for this kind of knife. So a quick trip to the stones will reveal the true beast within!

The higo folder is made in Miki City by a very small shop that specializes in knives of this type. Higo is an abbreviation of higonokami, which is a type of folding knife that originated in Miki, Hyogo Prefecture, in 1896. The term "higo no kami" means "Lord of Higo" in Japanese, in honor of the Lord of the Kyushu area of Japan, where the knife originated. Higos are abbreviated from the original name because the actual higonokami word is a trademark owned by a Miki Knife Guild that has granted sole use to just one maker.
The higo knife has no locking system. Rather, it is a friction folder or "penny knife." These knives work with the friction of the swivel and the pressure of the user's thumb on its lever or chikiri. This arrangement prevents the knife from folding during use.
This is a great little higo that stands out due to the good looking speckled handle that adds some bling to the package. The handle is also printed with some nice kanji which also appear on the blade face.

About 700 years ago, Kuniyasu Chizuru, a sword craftsman of Kyoto was searching for water that anneals excellent swords. During his journey, he happened to stay at Takefu and while there created swords and sickles. At one point Takefu was the biggest producer of agricultural tools in Japan and were sold by peddlers all around Japan. The blades were very unique to the Hokuriku area. Lacquer painters were traveling all over Japan to look for lacquer for their Echizen lacquerware. They used Takefu’s sickles, sold them and brought back orders for sickles that were specifically designed to be suitable for the areas where the farmers lived.
It was Mid-Edo Period when Echizen-Uchi-Hamono, especially Echizen Sickles (Kama) became number one in production in Japan. In the historical document that was written in Kanmon 8 (1668) about famous products in Echizen, Kama and Nagatana (same as Nakiri) were included. In the second book about local products, “Echihan Juuiroku”, written in the Kanpo period (1741-1744) Kama and Nata of Fuchu were mentioned as famous products. In Bunka 12 (1815), in “Echizen-kuni Meikeiko”, written by Sensho Inoue, Kama and Nata of Fuchu were mentioned as products of Fuchu-Takefu as well. Also, in a historical document written at the end of Edo period, there are facts about products that were sent to other regions from Echizen and their prices. According to the document, two million ryo (currency at that time) was made from selling Kama and Nagatana of Fuchu-Takefu.
In the Meiji period, due to abolition of feudal domains, establishment of prefectures, disbandment of Kabunakama (merchant guild entrusted by the shogunate to manage its respective trade) and loss of perquisites from Protection Policy, a decrease of production and quality was observed. However, national production of Kama in Meiji 7 (1874) was estimated at about 3.53 million ryo. With that, 27.5%, or 970,000 Kama, were produced in Takefu. A runner-up was Niigata Prefecture where 250,000 were produced, significantly fewer than were produced in Takefu.
In the beginning of the Showa period (1926-1989), the silk fabric industry was thriving and knives and Kama to cut mulberry were necessary for sericulture, therefore production of mulberry cutting knives and Kama increased. Additionally, nakiris and rice cropping kama were in demand, so knife industry in Takefu had stable growth. In January of Showa 54 (1979), Echizen uchi-hamono was designated as a traditional craft by the Japanese government, which was the first designation in the national uchi-hamono industry. The Uchi-hamono that were designated were knives, Kama, Nata and cropping scissors. There are plenty of historical resources regarding Takefu knives. They have a longer history compared to other Uchi-hamono blades. Additionally, Takefu knives have been highly recognized for supplying excellent products to the whole country for 700 years.
The value of current production is only about a few % in the country, so Takefu’s rank has been going down. Since Takefu knives received national designation in Showa 57(1982), Group of Four - Echizen Uchi-hamono Product started a cooperative framework to aim for industrial development, thus the Association of Product Union was founded. And then, in July of the same year, a development plan to promote the production region was approved by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry.
Fast, neat abrasion. And made in America.
Get the eraser as well - it's inexpensive and it just works.
I can say that it does only takes a few swipes and your edge will have a mirror finish.
This stone is soft,i never used the SS10k,but even stropping with the tip first you can easily leave some grooves in the stone. this might be me and not so much the stone,but be warned it is soft.
The stone feels very nice and smooth,like others have described as buttery.
i feel a great purchase for the dollar amount.
I know that I am going to get alot of boos,but I will take this over the 10k Chosera any day,in price and performance,leaves a beautiful mirror,can be used after a 5/6k progression,but is really nice to have an 8k in between.
(Pun intended) !!!! Haha. Yes,literally,whatever the need be. From chips in the edge,and even for lapping,the Pink Imanishi is now the one I turn to for such major tasks. I don’t even use my flattening stone,or my other 220-stone,when I can accomplish everything I need for labor intensive work as mentioned. This stone really can cut it. Give it a try if you’re tired of other stones dishing so bad and washing then down the sink. All my hard work now goes to this stone and I have yet to even flatten or lap it. Thanks for a great little beginning stone.
Needs a bit of a soak time,but I generally just put it in to soak,and come back 30 minutes later and put it to work.
Cuts steel well,and after 2+ months of sharpening all my knives at least twice a week,I’ve only had to flatten it once (and it was barely needing flattening). Probably could have went another two months without much noticeable difference in blade response.
I’m anticipating having this one for several years to come.
Ishikawa-san White #2 carbon steel layered with a soft iron cladding. The rustic nature of his knives is very obvious and they are not the fit and finish kings that other blacksmiths produce. He places value on shape and sharpness more than on aesthetics. But at the price and considering the one-man handmade nature of these blades that is a plus, not a negative. Mr. Ishikawa does a unique semi S grind on his blades that are basically flat on the back side so this knife is made for a right handed person.

We recently discovered this blacksmith through a good friend in Japan. After hearing the story and seeing his interview on Japanese TV we decided to introduce his unique knives to our customers.
Not only is the 28 stage process one of a kind, but his use of a single bevel design in knives normally made with two edges places them in the very rare category. We hardly ever see a single-sided gyuto so we just had to give this and its santoku sibling a place in our store.
There are some fundamental differences in cutting and sharpening styles that will be required in the use of single bevel knives. But not so hard that some practice will not overcome these obstacles. The upside of single bevel knives is their in-built acute cutting edge. Being single sided means that the inclusive edge angle is about 15 degrees as opposed to a double edge where the angle is around 30 degrees. This enhances the cutting abilities, makes food release easier and minimizes wedging. However, it does result in a blade that is restricted to right-handed users.
Ishikawa-san uses both White and Blue #2 steels in his knives. This gyuto is made with White #2 which receives a soft iron cladding.

For over 350 years Nakaniida has been one of the most unusual sword-making processes that have continued through generations of blacksmiths. Now, this process could finally end when its last practitioner, Michio Ishikawa, retires. He has no apprentice as of the time of this writing, so with him goes the secrets and skills needed to make blades using the Nakaniida Proprietary process of forging.

To find such unusual knives made by a craftsman of his caliber and experience is a rare thing. We have added a very nice octagonal urushi handle made with oak wood.
This very interesting process involves 28 steps and is significant in that the blade is hardened 3 times. The complete operation is carried out by Mr. Ishikawa. In addition to this unique process, all of his knives are single beveled designs.
White #2 carbon alloy is his steel of choice; it is clad with a soft iron outer layer which is enhanced by leaving the carbon forging scale in place, thus creating the finish known as kurouchi. While these knives have average fit and finish, it is obvious that Ishikawa-san places value on shape and sharpness more than on visual appeal.
This nakiri has an unusual single-beveled edge and thus comes with the customary inclusive edge angle of about 20 degrees as opposed to a double edge where the angle is around 30 degrees. This enhances the cutting abilities, makes food release easier, and minimizes wedging. However, it does result in a blade that is restricted to right-handed users. The handle is a nice custom octagonal using burl wood and it's stabilized for long use.
The blade sports a core of White #2 steel which possesses great edge resilience and wear resistance. It sharpens up very well and can be treated to a high level of hardness. The hagane (inner core) is covered with a softer iron jigane (outer layer) in the san-mai style. This process leaves the inner core exposed along the spine. The cladding is left with its natural carbon finish on the upper blade road while the lower road is given a satin appearance which contrasts with and enhances the polished cutting edge. Both the core and cladding should be kept dry and acidic ingredients should be wiped off often during early use.
Of course the unusual aspect of this knife is its single bevel grind. This is an interesting twist on a shape that is usually ground on both sides. The single bevel allows for a much more acute cutting edge angle, further enhancing the knife’s ability to take on very hard ingredients without wedging or splitting the produce. As such, the knife is only useful to right-handed users.

In Japan there are many gods in the Shinto religion and there is a special god of handtools called Kajiya Kojin. Yuuka san was inspired to make a block print depicting Kajiya Kojin with 3 heads & 6 hands. You will see many leaves at both sides. The tree is called “Katsura” which is a special tree existing in Japan and is a holy tree of God. Two white herons birds are flying which are considered messengers of God. There is a big stump of a tree in front of the God that Yuuka san noticed when touring the blacksmith shop at MIKI-SYO. Mr. Nagaike kindly took a short tour of his workshop, where he actually demonstrated how to flatten kogatanas for her to get inspiration.
Yuuka san made 24 prints in all and 21 of them were given to our blacksmith friends and distributors in Japan. We took #1 for our office. That leaves #2 and #3 that were are offering for sale. In the future, we may do a second run of them but this run is the first.

The blade is made from a core of VG10 stainless steel which then receives outer layers of a softer stainless steel finished in a wonderful damascus (suminagashi) pattern. VG10 is one of the most popular stainless steels in the world for the manufacturing of kitchen knives, and for a good reason. It has excellent edge retention and is very wear and corrosion-resistant.
The combination of the reverse tanto-style tip and short, tall blade lend the bunka a very purposeful look. These knives are gaining in popularity recently due to their do-it-all abilities. They are adept at cutting, slicing, and chopping, while the tip affords them the ability to take on smaller ingredients and get into tight spaces.
This sleek and elegant knife is constructed around a core of VG10 stainless steel. This is a very hard and tough stainless alloy that is capable of holding an incredibly sharp edge with longer life and easier maintenance than many other types of steel. The VG-10 core is clad in a softer multi-layer damascus stainless steel which delivers an effortless sharpening experience and adds structural ductility and support to the blade.
There is a gentle belly that develops quite far back along the edge and rises to a medium height tip. The grind is very well executed and quite thin behind the edge. The design element that sets this knife apart is the unusual handle construction and aesthetic. Using a multi-layer laminate of oak reduces the chances of shrinkage and distortion while comfortable in hand and well balanced overall.
In fact the skin, in this case, is that of a low count multi-layer damascus made from a stainless steel. This cladding is hammer forged to an inner core of VG10 stainless steel which is hardened to about 61 Rockwell. VG10 is a really popular steel in the knife world for its great edge retention, while being very wear and corrosion resistant. The cladding is etched to reveal the damascus in-grind line while the upper road receives a semi-matte brushed finish.
The profile of the edge is fairly flat to about two thirds along and then turns into a gentle sweep to the medium height tip. This should be a blade suitable to all styles of cutting. The length to height ratio is also fairly average.
A contemporary oak handle and stainless bolster combination complete this very striking and unusual picture. This is a beautiful performer with looks to match.
Mr. Kamo uses the ubiquitous stainless steel VG10 as his core. He then covers this with a multi-layer damascus stainless steel. VG-10 “super steel” is composed of carbon, chromium, cobalt, manganese, molybdenum, silicon, and vanadium. All of these relatively small amounts of other metals give the VG-10 steel its most important properties, such as its ability to hold an edge coupled with great durability. The core is hardened to about 61 HRC.
The nontraditional handle is made of a sturdy and distortion-free multi ply oak wood. The possibilities of shrinking or deformation are very much reduced. The handle and blade are connected by a forged, solid stainless steel bolster. This results in a very durable, easy to maintain, and well balanced kitchen knife.
At 160mm long and 49mm tall, this is a classic nakiri in every way. Designed to cut vegetables with ease, the flat edge and extra finger clearance make it a great choice for users who prefer push cutting over a rocking style. This nakiri will amaze you with its ability to fall through the hardest ingredients.
The design element that sets this knife apart is the unusual handle construction and aesthetic. Using a multi-layer laminate of oak reduces the chances of shrinkage and distortion while comfortable in hand and well balanced overall. It is a light but rigid knife-to-handle interface which is particularly important for a small knife that might be used for in-hand cutting.
Petty knives are small utility knives of Japanese design. They can vary significantly in both profile and size, going from 75mm to 210mm. They are very similar to the common western paring or utility knife and are adept at many small and detailed cutting tasks. Petties are also perfect for preparing garnishes and other artistic cutting tasks. This light and nimble knife is well designed, aesthetically original, and very well constructed from prime materials.

Master Blacksmith Katsuyasu Kamo starts with a core (hagane) of VG10 stainless steel to which he then applies an outer layer (jigane) of a softer stainless steel to protect the inner core while adding strength and durability. This outer layer is decorated with a beautiful suminagashi (damascus) finish which is lightly etched to further enhance the lovely pattern.
The great look of this knife is accentuated by its handle design and construction. A solid stainless bolster gives the knife a very sleek look and makes for a sanitary and easy to maintain junction between blade and handle. The bolster then attaches to the well-crafted handle which is fashioned from a multi-ply oak wood.
Kamo-san uses VG10 as his core steel. This is undoubtedly one of the most popular stainless steels in the world for making knives. It earns its high ranking for sharpness, edge retention, and durability. The alloy is hardened to about 61 HRC. He encases the inner core of VG10 with a multi-layer damascus stainless steel construct. Using only a few layers produces a really attractive pattern that is both subtle and very unusual.
To add to the unique look of these knives he utilizes a solid stainless bolster which gives the knife a very sleek look and makes for a sanitary and easy to maintain junction between blade and handle. The bolster then attaches to the really lovely handle which is fashioned from a multi-ply oak wood. This construction reduces the chances of shrinkage and distortion.
The end result is a package that is elegant looking while being easy to maintain and use. We really like these new offerings from the forge of Katsuyasu Kamo and we think you will too.
These unusual knives are primarily designed to bone and process meat. They are built with stout, short blades that have a very pointed tip. An unusual aspect of the hankotsu is its heel design where the blade transforms straight into the handle or bolster. There is absolutely no knuckle clearance if the hankotsu is used on a cutting board, which makes the knife more useful for processing hanging meats or for boning chops or Frenching rib racks. They have really stiff blades with no flex at all, unlike a western boning knife. For safety reasons, hankotsu knives also have an edge that is not sharpened all the way to the handle.
This knife is a single bevel style and as such is made for left-handed users.
As is the case with all of the Kanehide TK knives, fit and finish of both blade and rosewood handle are quite amazing given its price point.
This knife has half the chromium of a fully stainless knife, so it will be reactive and form a patina. Wash and towel dry after each use, and use Bar Keepers Friend if desired.
This knife is a single bevel style and as such is made for particular users, right- or left-handed. You will see the curve and bevel on the side of the blade that matches your preference.

Many honesuki knives are single bevel designs, reflecting their Japanese heritage. But many are now being made with a two-sided edge, as is this example. A side effect of this double bevel is that the knife becomes more of a general-purpose petty style knife. The shape and weight allow for easy and secure in-hand work as well as being an excellent blade for creating garnishes.
Another unique aspect of this knife is that it's ground asymmetrically for better performance from the spine to the edge. The overall fit and finish of the blade and handle are a revelation given their keen pricing. The rosewood handle, in particular, is wonderfully conceived and finished.
If you are looking for a blade that will not break the bank while allowing you entry into a specialized area of kitchen cutlery, we cannot recommend the Kanehide Bessaku Honesuki 150mm highly enough!

The blade is made from a proprietary semi-stainless steel which Kanehide calls TK steel. This very interesting alloy is a bit like stainless with a bit of carbon, so it takes and holds a nice edge while being really easy to sharpen. Meanwhile, as it is semi-stainless, the normal maintenance routine associated with high-carbon blades is reduced quite substantially. This knife has half the chromium of a fully stainless knife, so it will be reactive and form a patina. Wash and towel dry after each use, and use Bar Keepers Friend if desired.The knife is a mono steel construction and the steel is hardened to 60-61 HRC.
Although Kanehide calls this a sujihiki, that name is usually associated with a double-bevel design. This knife is ground on one side only, so could be regarded as a yanagiba more than the normal sujihiki style slicer.
The blade has a lovely profile and the edge is well ground. Fit and finish are quite outstanding given its price point. So if you are looking for a versatile slicer that is easy to maintain and is easy on the pocket, you need look no further!

The result is a fully stainless knife that sharpens extremely well and cuts great. It features a nice, custom handle made by our woodworker.
After 2 months of testing, we felt that this was quite simply the best Western-handled stainless steel knife in its price range. It's fully stainless, sharpens extremely well, and has a nice handle. It's superior to the Mac Pro, Masamoto VG, Tojiro DP, Misono UX10, Richmond Artifex, and the Fujiwara FKM which we also sell and are all in a similar price range. Try it. You won't regret it.
Kanehide was able to increase the hardness to HRC 60-61 through special heat treating and also increasing the wear resistance by giving the blades by using a cryogenic treatment with liquid nitrogen at minus 180 degrees C. The sub-zero treating works to change retained austenite to martensite, as a result, it is effective not only to enhance the hardness but also the wear resistance.
The result is a fully stainless knife that sharpens extremely well and cuts great. It features a nice oak wood handle in an octagonal shape with a burnt finish design. Give it a try and we think you'll be as delighted with this knife as we are.

The Kanehide PS60 Wa Handled Gyuto knife is the result of a request we made to their blacksmith to make a wa handled laser version of their very popular PS60 mono steel gyuto. The result speaks for itself. We are amazed by the quality of this knife and its cutting abilities. It performs way outside its price range, offering both new and established chefs a robust, easy-to-maintain kitchen tool at a really attractive price.
We've been testing this knife for the past 2 months and it's quite simply the best Western-handled stainless steel knife in its price range. It's fully stainless, sharpens extremely well and has a nice handle. We think it's better than the Mac Pro, Masamoto VG, Tojiro DP, Misono UX10, Richmond Artifex, and the Fujiwara FKM which are all in a similar price range. If you're looking for a good, entry level stainless knife this is our pick!

My request to Kanehide was to please make a wa-handled laser version of their very popular PS60 mono steel. This knife is a result of that request and we think it's going to dominate the market for a good, thin, wa handled knife at a lower price point. The quality is too good to resist. Hitachi makes this steel for the razor industry and has a dominant share of the market worldwide and is nearly identical to AEB-L. Kanehide was able to increase the hardness to HRC 60-61 through special heat treating and also increase the wear resistance by using a cryogenic treatment with liquid nitrogen at minus 180 degrees C. The sub-zero treating works to change retained austenite to martensite, as a result, it is effective not only to enhance the hardness but also the wear resistance. Our Kiri saya does not fit this knife.
The result is a fully stainless knife that sharpens extremely well and cuts great. It features a nice octagonal handle with a burnt urushi finish.

We think it's better than the Mac Pro, Masamoto VG, Tojiro DP, Misono UX10, Richmond Artifex, and the Fujiwara FKM which we also sell and are all in a similar price range. Give it a try and we think you'll be as delighted with this knife as we are.
It is a mono steel construction, no layers or cladding. The knife is quite light and is a very nimble item in the hand. It is a thin blade with a well-executed distal taper from around the mid-point to the tip. It has a nice grind and the fit and finish are of a high standard, featuring a well-rounded choil and spine.
Blade height is on the short side so it a great choice for people with smaller hands or those looking for a very agile and delicate blade to be used in the preparation of smaller items and garnishes. The lovely finish on the blade is enhanced by the great looking brown pakka wood handle and stainless steel bolster. We are very impressed with the level of fit and finish associated with the high value of this great kitchen knife.
It is fashioned from customized steel called PS60 or Pure Steel 60. This is a derivative of the popular Gin5 razor blade alloy made by Hitachi. Kanehide takes the base steel and subjects it to a special heat treatment and cryogenic freezing regiment. The result is harder steel, up to HRC 60, and an edge that is tougher and more wear resistant than the original would be. All around, this an excellent steel which will find favor in both home and professional environments. Like its smaller 120mm sibling, the 150mm petty is a knife with less blade height than others at this length. So while this may be a minus for those with larger hands, it is a positive in that it makes for a light and nimble blade capable of taking on fine cutting tasks such as garnish preparation and the processing of intricate or small ingredients.
We are really impressed with the level of craftsmanship that has gone into these knives. Fit and finish are excellent, with well-rounded and polished choil and spine areas. The rosewood colored pakka wood handle is mated to a lovely stainless bolster which has a smooth and comfortable feel.
We think this is one of the great deals on the CKTG site and encourage anyone looking for a petty that is both easy to use and maintain to consider this fine kitchen utensil.
Santokus are a very popular knife in both home and professional kitchens. Combining many attributes of a gyuto and western chef knife, their blade geometry incorporates the sheep's foot tip. A sheep's foot design essentially draws the spine ("backstrap") down to the front, with very little clearance above the horizontal cutting plane when the blade is resting naturally from heel to forward cutting edge.
This results in a knife that favors less of a rocking motion as compared to a gyuto or chef knife. "Santoku" translates to Three Virtues. This is a perfect descriptor of the the three cutting tasks which the knife performs well: slicing, dicing, and mincing.
Kanehide makes this blade from Hitachi Gin5 steel which is used a lot in the manufacture of razor blades. He treats this steel to a cryogenic process that not only enhance the hardness but also the wear resistance.
This is a wonderful entry level knife. Definitely one of the best in our line up of starter knives, and easily the best featuring a Western handle. Combining great fit and finish with an exceptional grind, the Kanehide PS60 santoku is a wonderful choice for anyone starting off in the Japanese knife world. Any home cook or line chef looking for an affordable, robust, and easy to care for kitchen cutting machine would do well to consider this great value knife. Highly recommended!
The result is a fully stainless knife that sharpens extremely well and cuts great. It features a nice, octagonal handle with a urushi finish and an attractive burn end.
Kanehide use a very special brew of PS60 steel to fashion this fine blade. While PS60 finds major usage in the making of razors, Kanehide enhances both the hardness and wear resistance by utilizing a special heat treating method followed by a cryogenic treatment using liquid nitrogen at minus 180 degrees celsius. The knife is a mono steel construction, so there is no cladding or other hybrid treatments. It is a very thin blade, as a slicer should be. The grind is asymmetrical with a right side bias at 70/30. The great looking blade is mated to an equally good looking handle made from rosewood with a very nice stainless bolster. The fit and finish of both the blade and the handle belie its affordable price.
We think that the Kanehide range of PS60 kitchen knives are some of the very best knives at their price point. In fact at well above their price points. If you are seeking a compact slicing knife with terrific looks and performance at a very reasonable price, we strongly suggest this knife.

Kanehide are a well known brand of kitchen cutlery in Japan. They are located in the heart of Japanese knife making, Seki City. They are best known for their meat processing knives which are used to butcher, fillet and prepare all kinds of meat products. Many of their knives are single bevel designs made for specific cutting tasks.
They also make more general kitchen knives such as this lovely example of a Sujihiki. We are very enamored by their PS60 constructions, of which this is one. PS60 is a Hitachi made steel used widely in the razor blade industry. The alloy is very similar to AEB-L and 13C26 steels but Kanehide has found a way to further increase the hardness of this steel. They achieve this through special heat treating methods which, with the addition of cryogenic treatments, result in a highly wear resistant blade.
Sujihikis are Japanese versions of a western slicer. They are long and thin with a very fine tip. This Kanehide example is very thin at the spine as befitting a slicer. The length allows for single action cuts which reduces damage to the item being cut. The grind on the blade is right side biased 70/30. A really well made rosewood Yo handle and stainless steel bolster complete the picture with a very refined look.
This is a lot of knife for the money and one that we highly recommend.
Made with a semi stainless steel that is hardened to 61HRC, the Kanehide TK “Forgecraft” Butcher Knife is modeled after that famous bull nosed meat processing blade. We commissioned these knives a few years ago and we could not be happier with the results. It is easy to maintain and even easier to sharpen. In fact, we think it is one of the nicest semi-stainless steels to put on the stones. This knife has half the chromium of a fully stainless knife, so it will be reactive and form a patina. Wash and towel dry after each use, and use Bar Keepers Friend if desired.
The profile is classic bull nose butcher and it features a nice tapered spine. The convexing of the face is really well done and it is slightly biased to the right. However, the edge is a symmetrical 50/50, so all users will be happy with this.
The fit and finish of both blade and rosewood handle are quite amazing given its price point. It is never easy spending large amounts of money on specialty blades so this classic butcher knife represents a wonderful opportunity to get into a very specialized but useful knife at a really affordable price.
This is a boning knife with better bang for the buck than just about anything we currently sell on the site. The steel used for the construction of the blade is called TK, which is a special steel that is semi-stainless and takes a really nice edge with good edge retention. It sharpens up easily and doesn't rust like carbon steel knives. It's the same steel used in the Kikuichi TKC but we're able to sell this knife at roughly half the price. This knife has half the chromium of a fully stainless knife, so it will be reactive and form a patina. Wash and towel dry after each use, and use Bar Keepers Friend if desired.
This simple knife is a real star when it comes to boning and filleting proteins. The slim triangular blade and pointed tip enable the user to get into the tightest places and strip meat from bone with a precision no other blade can achieve. The knife is ground on one side so it is suitable for right-handed users only. It features a simple Fibrox handle with a textured finish for security in use and ease of maintenance.
This gyuto has a versatile shape for just about any cutting style, from rocking to slicing to chopping. The thin and pointed tip of the Kanehide TK Gyuto 210mm makes for impressive precision cuts and detail work. The blade height is not too tall at 47mm, which is about perfect for this length. The knife has a slender-sized western-style handle, and is quite light at 6.5 ounces, making this an ideal choice for small- and medium-sized hands. The 210mm size is also great for cooks working with smaller cutting boards.
This knife is exceptionally well balanced between blade and handle, and feels great using both western and pinch grips. The handle is made from a black Japanese pakka wood, which, together with the stainless steel bolster, will last the lifetime of the blade.
This knife has half the chromium of a fully stainless knife, so it will be reactive and form a patina. Wash and towel dry after each use, and use Bar Keepers Friend if desired.
We cannot believe how well these knives are made and finished given their super competitive price. The blade face is wonderfully convexed and the edge out of the box is quite good. A few strokes on your favorite stone will take it to another level of sharpness that will blast through all kinds of ingredients.
The most popular size gyuto among professional and home chefs is the 240mm variety. It is the perfect length for processing almost any vegetable or protein, up to the largest cuts. The Kanehide TK Gyuto 240mm will appeal to rock and push cutters alike. It has a generous 50mm blade height and its 50/50 edge grind will be useful to both left- and right-handed users. It has a nice thin spine that tapers towards the tip and it also exhibits a fairly thin grind behind the edge.
This is a great gyuto at a very competitive price.
It is a mono steel blade with a nice machine-finished blade face. The edge out of the box is surprisingly sharp and the way it sharpens easily and effectively is really impressive. The spine and choil areas are nicely finished, as is the western style Fibrox handle.
240mm gyutos are the sweet spot for this style of knife. They are long enough to take on the largest ingredients, yet compact enough that kitchen or board space will not be an issue. The profile of this particular knife is fairly average in terms of flat to belly ratio. It has a good blade height at the heel of 50mm. The fit and finish is surprisingly good for a knife at this price point. It is easy to see how these gyutos represent a really excellent introduction to the world of Japanese kitchen knives.
This knife has half the chromium of a fully stainless knife, so it will be reactive and form a patina. Wash and towel dry after each use, and use Bar Keepers Friend if desired.
While it is called a boning knife, the honesuki is not meant to cut through bones. Instead it is intended to cut through the joints of the bird. Due to its shape and height, the honesuki can also double up nicely as a utility or petty style of knife.
TK knives from Kanehide are made from their proprietary semi-stainless steel, and the results are quite surprising. TK steel is like a bit of stainless and a bit of carbon. It takes and holds a nice edge while being easy to sharpen. Meanwhile, it is semi stainless, so the normal maintenance routine associated with high carbon blades is reduced quite substantially. This knife has half the chromium of a fully stainless knife, so it will be reactive and form a patina. Wash and towel dry after each use, and use Bar Keepers Friend if desired.
The knife is a mono steel construction and the steel is hardened to 61 HRC. The blade is mated to a simple yet effective handle made from a super durable material called Fibrox.

The Kanehide TK Nakiri 180mm is constructed from TK steel. TK is a proprietary semi-stainless steel that has a carbon steel feel and the ability to be sharpened with relative ease. It’s the same steel found in the famous Kikuichi TKC line of knives…at a far lower price! It is a mono-steel blade with a lovely machine-finished blade face. The edge out of the box is surprisingly sharp. The way it sharpens easily and effectively is awe-inspiring. The spine and choil areas are nicely finished, as is the western-style pakka wood handle.
This is an excellent knife made more so by its competitive pricing. The Kanehide TK nakiri would be a great choice for a line chef, home cook, or anyone looking to experience the unique aspects of a nakiri-style knife without breaking the bank.
This knife has half the chromium of a fully stainless knife, so it will be reactive and form a patina. Wash and towel dry after each use, and use Bar Keepers Friend if desired.
The second reason is the overall fit and finish. We are still amazed at the high level of construction and finish of both blade and handle that is offered at this budget price.
Lastly, the grinds and profiles are really sterling work. You could easily pay over twice as much for a similar knife from other makers!
If you are looking for a small, easy to use and maintain petty that comes with a great edge that is easy to sharpen, you have found it in the Kanehide TK Petty 120mm!

These knives have fairly thin spines with a nice taper to the well-ground tip. The blade height is about average for a knife this size. It’s a good looker with a well-made machine finish on the blade face. The handle and bolster are very well executed. The medium-sized handle is made from black pakka wood and it has a really comfortable feel. The blade shape lends itself to a variety of tasks including fine slicing and intricate work such as garnish preparation.
The Kanehide TK Petty 150mm is a good choice for a new Japanese knife user or a line cook wanting a well-made kitchen tool at a great price.
The santoku is a multi-purpose knife but with a slight vegetable bias. Santoku means three virtues, or to solve three problems. The virtues or problems are slicing, dicing, and mincing. The santoku is gaining in popularity every year in the West. They are shorter than chef knives but have a blade height that is proportionally larger.
The most notable difference is their blade geometry which incorporates a sheep’s foot-shaped tip. The design draws the spine (“backstrap”) down to the front, with very little clearance above the horizontal cutting plane when the blade is resting naturally from heel to forward cutting edge. This results in a knife that is more of a push cutter than a rocker.
The Kanehide TK Santoku is made with a mono-steel construction of proprietary semi-stainless steel. The alloy is hardened to 61 Rockwell. The steel combines several attributes of stainless steel (less prone to corrosion and thus less maintenance) with the edge holding and ease of sharpening associated with full carbon blades. The overall fit and finish are of a high level, especially at this price point. The blade is coupled to a nice black pakka wood western-style handle which exhibits a nice level of fit and finish.
This knife has half the chromium of a fully stainless knife, so it will be reactive and form a patina. Wash and towel dry after each use, and use Bar Keepers Friend if desired.
The blade itself is made from a single piece of steel and boasts a well-polished surface achieved through precise machining. Out of the box, the edge is remarkably sharp, and the knife is impressively easy to sharpen while maintaining its effectiveness. The spine and choil areas are skillfully finished, complementing the Western-style Fibrox handle. This mono-steel knife allows it to be flexed. It's ideal for fillet work.

This finely grained leather is stretched tautly across the aluminum backing. This produces a strop with very little give,greatly reducing the risk of rounding off your edge.

Kangaroo Strop For Edge Pro 1x6". Kangaroo is an ultrafine surface--smoother than a baby's butt. It takes compounds extremely well and is extremely thin, minimizing inadvertent edge convexing. It's also an extremely strong leather. In particular, 'roo works exceptionally well with grits 0.125 micron and below because it doesn't provide much, if any, abrasion on its own, letting the compounds shine through. It should work well enough on some of the coarser compounds. It also has a nice consistent draw.

During a trip to Japan a few years ago I met young up-and-coming knife maker, Kanjo Tsukahara. He had been working with his father, Tsukahara-san, for just five years but he asked if he could design some knives for our customers in the USA.
Fast forward a few years, and we are now able to present the results of this collaboration. The Kanjo kori is a unique knife to our site made with R2 steel clad in stainless steel that gives a dramatic look to the blade. The knife is fully stainless and has excellent heat treatment and grinds that make quick work when cutting food.
Fit and finish on these knives is excellent. The knife also comes with a new grey/black handle that looks great on the dramatic blade.

The rendition presented here is a really nice example of the design style realized in VG-10 and VG-2 steels. These stainless alloys are often used together in pattern-welded damascus steels. VG-10 is similar to 154CM but with a slightly higher chromium content, which results in better corrosion resistance. There is more vanadium as well, which makes it slightly tougher. It is relatively hard and can get extremely sharp. VG-2 is fundamentally a lower carbon version of the Takefu VG1 stainless steel. It is still a high carbon steel by knife marketing definition, though.
The really special looking and feeling handle is constructed from black micarta in a sleek western full tang design. The handle scales mate up to the finely finished stainless bolster and are attached to the tang with an unusual five pin arrangement.
The Kanjo Ladderback Damascus VG2/10 Petty is a very versatile and good looking knife. It will chop, slice, and cut almost any small to medium ingredient. It is also compact enough to be a perfect paring knife or tool for delicate and precise usage such as garnish preparation.

Kanjo-san tempers the steel to a hardness of 60 HRC and then adds a cladding of stainless damascus using a san-mai construction. The lovely damascus pattern is enhanced by etching the blade after it is forged. We don't have a saya that fits this knife.
The combination of the tanto-style tip and short, tall blade lend the bunka a very purposeful look. These knives are becoming more popular due to their do-it-all abilities and intriguing looks. They are proficient cutters, slicers, and choppers, while the fine tip allows them to take on smaller ingredients and get into tight spaces.
The gyuto featured here is very similar to its other stablemates but in this instance, it wears Eastern boots, as in a yo handle! The cutting-edge measures 210mm which is a nice size for this style of knife when space or small hands are a consideration. But even if these are not issues, its compact dimensions make it a very nimble, light, and easy to maneuver kitchen cutter.
The rendition presented here is a really nice example of the design style realized in VG-10 and VG-2 steels. These stainless alloys are often used together in pattern-welded damascus steels. VG-10 is similar to 154CM but with a slightly higher chromium content, which results in better corrosion resistance. There is more vanadium as well, which makes it slightly tougher. It is relatively hard and can get extremely sharp. VG-2 is fundamentally a lower carbon version of the Takefu VG1 stainless steel. It is still a high carbon steel by knife marketing definition, though.
The really special-looking and feeling handle is constructed from grey pakkawood octagonal and finished with a black pakkawood ferrule.
The Kanjo Ladderback Damascus VG2/10 Gyuto is a very versatile and good looking knife. It will chop, slice, and cut almost any small to medium ingredient. Great for general purpose use and a perfect choice for a daily driver.

Fast forward a few years, and we are now able to present the one of the results of this collaboration. The Kanjo ZDP-189 Gyuto 210mm is made with ZDP-189 Powdered Metallurgical Steel. This super steel boasts some serious attributes. It is one of the highest wear resistant steels available from Hitachi Metals, while it also has some of the highest hardness and carbon content of any knife steel.
Used in the right context, as in kitchen knife blades, this alloy is one of the best high carbon semi stainless steels around. Note we do say semi stainless, as the core ZDP189 can corrode if neglected. Of course the soft stainless cladding goes a long way to reducing this occurrence.
We really like the subtly curved spine of this gyuto and beautifully shaped profile. The blade height is taller than many 210mm knives of this type, which together with the western style handle offer good knuckle clearance and an ingrained ability to rock chop with ease. Fit and finish on these knives is top shelf and the design aesthetic is among the best we have seen. We look forward to seeing more knives from this exciting young blade maker.
Over a beer a while ago we asked Kanjo-san to make some knives out of the Hitachi steel known as ZDP-189. It is one of their top steels, containing large quantities of carbon and chromium. This combination results in very high levels of hardness with ZDP-189 knife blades averaging around 64 HRC. Kanjo-san is able to take these blades to an even higher 65 HRC.
The knives featured here are the first results of this collaboration. They are made with a stainless steel cladding and are laser cut from a san-mai sandwich. The hairline finish is artfully applied and together with the beautifully formed bolster and unusual handle design result in a knife with some interesting design elements and a subtle grace to its overall appearance. We particularly like the curved spine and lovely edge profile, both of which show an immense amount of design maturity.
We look forward to working with this exciting young blade maker in the future.
These particular knives have been years in the making. Edge grinds are even and blade fit and finish are excellent. They're topped off with a very nice, stabilized grey and black pakkwood handle with black pakkawood ferrule for long durability and good looks.

We asked him to make the blades out of ZDP-189, which is a Hitachi manufactured alloy. It is one of the newer super steels and it contains large quantities of carbon and chromium, the combination of which results in very high levels of hardness. ZDP-189 knife blades average around 64 HRC but Kanjo-san is able to take these blades to a remarkable 65 HRC. Of course with this level of hardness you can expect superb edge retention but at the cost of some difficulty in sharpening. The steel is stainless but will still require some care with cleaning and drying between uses. This is somewhat mitigated by the stainless cladding.
The Kanjo ZDP189 Petty 120mm is an elegant and beautifully constructed small petty that will work its magic on the cutting board as well as in hand. Whether it is chopping fine herbs, coring vegetables, or making light work of garnishes, this knife will please and reward its owner for many years to come. The beautifully constructed and sculpted micarta handle is made in the western style and attached to the full tang with five small stainless pins.

The Kanehiro AS Bunka knives are forged by master blacksmith Yoshimi Kato along with his father and small crew. They are made with a core of Aogami Super steel which is then clad with soft stainless steel. This cladding protects most of the knife from adversely reacting with acids or moisture. In fact, they will only oxidize right along the edge, which minimizes the maintenance required by fully carbon steel blades. Knife users love Aogami Super steel because it takes an acute edge and holds it throughout prolonged use. The core steel has a high hardness rate of HRC 62-63. The blade takes on a refined rustic look with the addition of a nashiji (pear skin) treatment to the upper blade surface.
Overall fit and finish are really well achieved. The handle is a traditional hexagonal type. Please note that the dimensions will vary from knife to knife as these are completely hand made.
The Kanehiro AS Gyuto 180mm is a fine knife made from one of our most popular steels, Aogami Super. AS is a steel derived from Aogami 2, or Blue # 2, which has been augmented with the addition of more carbon, chromium, and tungsten. It is regarded as the best of the Hitachi paper carbon steels with regard to both edge retention and its ability to be sharpened to an acute angle. The core steel is then clad with soft stainless alloy. This lamination adds strength and protects the knife from reacting with acids or moisture. You still need to take care of the exposed edge and spine. The cladding is given a nashiji (pear skin) finish.
This is a knife for smaller hands, smaller cutting boards, or smaller spaces. But do not let the label throw you. This is a big performer capable of taking on almost every normal kitchen cutting task. The shorter and lighter size of this knife gives it a nimble quality that feels fast and dare we say it...more fun! Most vegetables or proteins can be processed with a blade this size. The knife is coupled to a traditional maple octagonal handle with a walnut wood ferrule.
One of our favorite choices is the Ginsan steel due to its exceptional balance of sharpness and durability. This steel is easy to use and maintain, providing a pleasant cutting experience. The blade features a G-3 core, enveloped by a softer stainless steel cladding with an attractive nashiji (pear skin) finish. Unlike high carbon steel blades, this knife requires less rigorous cleaning and drying.
The bunka blade showcases a purposeful design with a reverse tanto-style tip and a short, tall profile. It has gained popularity for its versatile capabilities, excelling in cutting, slicing, and chopping tasks.
The Japanese word nakiri translates into knife for cutting greens. The shape of nakiris differs according to the region of origin: knives in the Tokyo area are rectangular in shape, and knives in the Osaka area (like this one) are called kamagata nakiri and have a rounded corner on the far blunt side. But please do not mistake this for a cleaver as it is not intended for that singular task at all.
Kato-san makes these knives using a core of Ginsan stainless steel which is then laminated with a softer stainless steel cladding. This adds strength and durability to the blade. The outer cladding is given a very attractive pear skin finish known as nashiji. A well-finished handle made from cherry wood and pakka wood finishes off this great package.
Yoshimi Kato uses Ginsan, or Silver-3, steel as the main element of this line of blades. He heat treats the alloy to an HRC rating of 62. G3 steel is well known for its excellent edge properties. The ginsan hagane (core) is wrapped in a stainless cladding, resulting in a fully stainless steel blade which is both durable and easy to maintain. The outer cladding is given a nashiji (pear skin) finish.

The santoku knife is a really efficient all-around kitchen blade. It has an agile feel which, coupled with the tall blade height, endows the knife with a great deal of versatility in its cutting capabilities. Santoku translates to three virtues and the acts of slicing, chopping, and dicing are tackled with ease by this effective design. In fact, recently, many western chefs and home cooks have taken to the santoku as their go-to blade for most cutting tasks.
This lovely example of a slicer is made from Ginsan stainless steel. This is Hitachi’s special stainless steel which, in the hands of a good blacksmith, can offer similar sharpness and edge retention to carbon steel. Ginsan is also known as Silver 3 or Ginsanko and it is the favored stainless steel for use in making Japanese traditional style single bevel knives. It is rare that such blades are made from any stainless steel and this shows how similar Ginsan can be to a high carbon alloy in many regards.
The inner core steel is wrapped in a stainless steel cladding that is given a very attractive pear skin finish. This finish is called nashiji in Japanese and it adds a great look to the blade while aiding with food release. A fine cherry wood octagonal handle with a black pakka wood ferrule are perfectly suited to this classic-looking blade, giving a good balance in hand and a secure feel in use.
Yoshimi Kato is an experienced knife maker who has taken over his father's business. He creates high-quality knives using VG-10 stainless steel as the core and covers it with an outer cladding of soft stainless steel that has been hammer-forged to create a beautiful damascus or suminagashi pattern. The upper blade road has a nashiji finish, giving the blade a unique and eye-catching appearance. Not only is the blade easy to maintain, but it also has excellent rigidity and edge retention.
Kato-san is based in the Takefu Knife Village cooperative, home to some of the world's most renowned blade makers. With his expertise and dedication to quality, you can trust that the bunka knife he creates is a top-of-the-line tool for your kitchen.
The Kato Nashiji Suminagashi gyuto measures in at 215mm, a perfect length for most kitchens and chefs needing a compact-size knife. The dimensions also make it well suited to taking on smaller ingredients or ones requiring fine detail work. It has a fairly flat belly with a gentle curve to the fine tip, so it’s good for pushers and rockers. The blade height is about 47mm which is on the short for this size knife. There is a nicely executed symmetrical 50/50 edge ground into the VG-10, a steel that will hold that sharpness very well.
The VG-10 hagane is clad in a soft multi-layer stainless steel jigane. This adds to the basic strength of the knife and protects the inner core. It also makes for a very easy to care for knife. Kato-san adds a really nice nashiji finish to the jigane which further enhances the great aesthetics of the blade. A traditional walnut octagonal handle featuring a buffalo horn ferrule completes this compelling picture.
Yoshimi Kato recently took over his father’s business and like his patriarch, is making quality knives for many brands as well as a line just for us. Kato-San works at Takefu Knife Village cooperative, located in Echizen, Japan. He makes a number of different knives various brand names including Kanehiro and Masakage. He works with several steels but one of his favorites is VG-10 stainless steel. This is one of the most popular stainless steels used by Japanese knife makers. Knives made with VG-10 alloy possess very good edge retention while having great wear and corrosion resistant properties. The inner core steel is covered with a cladding of soft stainless steel. The knife is therefore very easy to maintain. It also looks great with the nicely etched damascus lower blade which then transforms into the upper surface with its nashiji, or pear skin, finish.
A traditional walnut and black buffalo octagonal handle is a perfect match for the blade in terms of form and function. It’s a great looker, and a great performer!
Yoshimi Kato apprenticed under his father, Hiroshi Kato, for many years before recently taking the reins of the business. He has continued to make knives for several leading brands including Masakage and Kanehiro. This line is a new addition to his canon and we are very impressed with their quality of grinds, fit and finish, and overall aesthetic appeal. They are made from the ever popular stainless steel called VG-10, which is known for its great edge taking and holding characteristics.
VG-10 is a stainless steel with a high carbon content of 1%. Trace elements include chromium, molybdenum, vanadium, cobalt, and manganese. The steel was first created by the Takefu Special Steel Company and has now become one of the most popular stainless steels for use in kitchen cutlery. The inner core of VG-10 has an outer layer of a Damascus stainless steel applied in the san-mai fashion. The inner core is revealed under the Damascus which then transforms to a great-looking nashiji (pear skin) finish. It is coupled to a very good-looking walnut octagonal handle with a pakka wood ferrule.
Yoshimi Kato uses the widely employed VG-10 stainless steel as the hagane (inner core) of his knives. He then covers them with an outer cladding (jigane) of a soft stainless steel which has been hammer forged to create a lovely damascus or suminagashi pattern. The damascus pattern blends into the upper blade road where a nashiji, or pear skin, finish has been applied. The resulting blade is very easy to care for and possesses great rigidity and edge retention.
We are great admirers of the work that young Kato-san is doing. He has taken up the mantle of his illustrious father and has seamlessly moved the company into its next generation. We highly recommend this fine line of great-looking and performing knives.
This lovely little Nashiji Suminagashi Petty is made from a popular stainless steel known as VG-10. It is favored by some of the giants in the Japanese knife industry including Shun and Miyabi. The reasons for this favor are many, and they include good edge retention as well as very high wear and corrosion-resistant characteristics. The steel is used as the inner core of this san-mai sandwich. The outer layer is a softer stainless steel which is hammer-forged to create a lovely Damascus or suminagashi pattern. The Damascus pattern blends into the upper blade road where a nashiji, or pear skin, finish has been applied. The resulting blade is very easy to care for and possesses great rigidity and edge retention.
This is a very short blade with big aspirations as a versatile cutting tool around the kitchen. Handheld processes are where it shines, along with the ability to take on garnishes and artistic style cutting techniques. This is a tight and rigid knife that flies through herbs and other small items. Fun and functional. The Kato Nashiji Suminagashi Petty 120mm is an easy recommendation.
He also makes several types of knives under the family name of Kato. The santoku featured here is one of his creations featuring the popular stainless steel known as VG-10. This is one of the most popular stainless steel used by Japanese knife makers. Knives made with this alloy possess very good edge retention while having wear and corrosion-resistant properties sought after by many chefs.
The Kato Nashiji Suminagashi Santoku is fairly average in its dimensions but not in its looks or performance. The inner core of VG-10 has an outer layer of a damascus stainless steel applied in the san-mai fashion. The inner core is revealed under the damascus which then transforms to a great looking nashiji (pear skin) finish. Very unusual and very striking. The addition of some finely crafted kanji and a traditional octagonal walnut octagonal handle with buffalo horn ferrule completes this very attractive package.

VG-10 steel is prized for its exceptional edge retention and outstanding resistance to wear and corrosion. The core of the blade is encased in a soft stainless steel cladding, making the knife easy to maintain. Its aesthetic appeal is equally impressive, featuring a beautifully etched Damascus pattern on the lower blade, which transitions into a nashiji (pear skin) finish on the upper surface.
Paired with a traditional octagonal walnut handle and a black buffalo horn ferrule, this knife is not only a high-performing tool but also a work of art. Its perfect balance of form and function ensures a superior cutting experience every time.
Currently, they craft four styles of knives using Hitachi Shirogami #1 carbon steel, also known as White Paper Steel, paired with soft iron cladding. These knives offer exceptional sharpness and ease of sharpening, perfect for precise kitchen work. We hope they can expand their offerings, adding a Bunka version based on the santoku and creating a Gyuto 210mm style. Remember that carbon steel will rust if left wet.

Length of edge is actually 212mm,and the spine is right at 2mm. It is 43mm tall at the heel. There is a gentle curve through most of the blade,and you get about 3 inches of board contact when the heel is placed down.
The OOTB edge would shave arm hair with no problem,and was polished nicely. Not a toothy edge,they definitely took the time to buff it. I took about 10 or 15 minutes reprofiling it. I’m guessing OOTB was close to 20 degrees and I took it down to around 15. Steel had good wear resistance,especially for carbon. I started with Shapton 220 glass,with some of Ken’s 45 micron CBN mixed in. (wicked fast cutter,it’s a fun experiment)
Knife went from 220 to a 1000 Shapton glass,then on to my new natural Aoto. Finished on an 8000 super stone (yellow stone,NOT the snow white). Stropped 2 times on .75 CBN on balsa,twice on plain balsa. This edge was push cutting a tomato.
210mm gyutos are a great choice for most chefs looking for a fast and nimble cutter. It is the perfect size for smaller kitchens and cutting boards. The steel is very stain resistant but it will discolor if not dried carefully between uses.
The alloy is hardened to 59 HRC. Edge retention and maintenance are strong points of this type of steel. The knife is quite light at 218g or 7.7 ounces. It has a lovely thin grind which ends in a fine distal taper towards the tip. The profile is about average for a 240mm gyuto with a nicely curved shape to the edge. This makes it perfect for users who like rocking style cutting as well as push/pull styles. It comes with a symmetrical bevel.
The very thin blade makes for a fast and light knife which is enhanced by the nicely finished pakka wood handle. These knives are quite reactive so please take care to keep them very dry between uses. After a while, a patina will form which will aid in the daily maintenance and rust resistance.
The black pakka wood Western-style handle is triple riveted with a stainless steel bolster. This creates a perfect balance that will feel just right in any size grip.
Kikuichi Elite Carbon knives are made of a mono steel soft carbon construction and can react to acids, developing some staining without some care. Over time they will slowly develop a grayish patina. Careful washing and thoroughly drying the blade after any cutting or chopping task will help prevent oxidation development. The Kikuichi 270mm Elite Gyuto is a knife with a nimble feel, classic beauty, and a fine edge profile that makes smoother cuts with less effort. This is a big knife for big jobs but one that will also find pride of place in most professional or home kitchens where size and speed matter.
The knife has a well-finished pakka wood handle with a metal bolster and 3 rivets. The handle gives this honesuki a slightly rearward balance point. This is a lovely boning knife made by one of the oldest sword makers in Japan.
It is made using a mono steel construction of SK-4 carbon steel. SK-4 is a soft carbon alloy that takes a very sharp edge. It also makes for a fairly easy knife to sharpen. The steel used here is hardened to 59-60 HRC. Being made from a solid carbon steel, you must take extra care to keep the blade clean and dry between uses as it will rust if not given this attention. After a bit of time a patina will develop which will reduce the chances of corrosion and thus the required maintenance.
A nicely finished black pakka wood handle endows the knife with a good balance and feel. It is attached with a stainless steel bolster and three rivets.
Kikuichi is a knife manufacturer that can trace its roots back over 700 years with a legacy as a true samurai swordsmith. They have been producing superior kitchen knives for over 100 years. This is a very well-made and priced knife that will find favor in many professional and home kitchens.
The Kikuichi Elite Carbon Steel Petty knife is made of SK-4 soft high carbon steel in a mono-steel construction. This results in a blade that takes a really great edge and sharpens with relative ease. Of course, the steel is quite reactive so you do need to take care of keeping the knife dry and clean. Eventually a patina will form which will aid in this endeavor.
It is quite a light knife overall and the black pakka wood handle gives it a nice balance and look. 150mm petty knives are a perfect choice for most small- to medium-sized cutting and slicing jobs, especially where space is at a premium. The blade has a very nice thin grind.
The 9.75 inch blade is attached to a nicely finished pakka wood handle with 3 rivets. The edge has an 80/20 bevel. The balance is central and the knife feels light and fast. With its fine construction and sharp edge out of the box, the Kikuichi Elite Carbon Sujihiki 240mm is one of our most popular sujihikis. The HRC on this is about 60.
Balance is perfect and the blade profile is spot-on for my uses (mainly western-style slicing of cooked proteins).
This knife slides through meat with no sticking at all,which is a beautiful thing.
Definitely should have bought this earlier.
This is a lovely looker and great performer capable of making the thinnest slices in one single stroke. The long blade-to-height ratio minimizes food sticking and makes carving sessions a joy. It is a light blade that is well balanced out by the black pakka wood western-style handle.

These knives are handmade in Sakai and have excellent fit and finish. The handles are made with rosewood and are octagonal.
We have recently added a new line of high-quality Swedish Warikomi Damascus cutlery to the Kikuichi range. As the name suggests, they are fashioned from the Swedish steel known as AEB-L. This fine steel was originally developed for the razor blade industry, as it has the ability to take a very fine edge. The alloy also boasts high corrosion resistance with medium-range wear resistance. An added bonus is that it is very easy to sharpen. The inner core of AEB-L is clad with a total of 45 layers of a damascus stainless steel. This not only adds to the beauty of the knife but it also makes maintenance so much easier.
This is a classic nakiri in terms of size and shape. These knives are becoming quite popular in many Western kitchens of late. Their compact size and interesting profile have found a new legion of users in both professional and home environments. This is a vegetable cutter of the highest order. The flat edge and extra finger clearance make it a great choice for users who prefer a push-cutting style. These knives are handmade in Sakai and have excellent fit and finish. The handles are made from rosewood and are a traditional octagonal shape.

Each side uses 22 layers of nickel steel and stainless steel which creates a beautiful multilayer pattern. These knives are handmade in Sakai and have excellent fit and finish. The handles are made with rosewood and are octagonal.
The phrase “beauty is only skin deep” does not apply to this great looking and performing sujihiki. At 240mm long it occupies the shorter end of the sujihiki scale, so it’s a perfect choice for users with limited board space. However, it is long enough for single-slice cuts to be performed on most ingredients. This is particularly important with fresh fish. Fewer slices equal less cellular damage and a cleaner looking cut. These also make great sushi knives for those not wanting the singular nature of the yanagiba blade. Of course, the double bevel means they are good for both left- and right-handed users.
The picture is perfected with the addition of a beautifully crafted octagonal handle made from rosewood and black pakka wood.
Also be aware that this combo stone is somewhat smaller and should be used with either the included base or a dedicated stone holder.
Great purchase as a beginner set,by the way.
The King Deluxe stones are made with aluminum oxide particles suspended in a clay matrix. This combination allows the user to feel the cutting effect and thus control the process with more precision. Using water as the lubricant, the cutting particles are constantly washed away and replaced with new sharp particles that efficiently continue the polishing or honing process.
These stones are on the soft side of the scale and as such will require resurfacing as they will dish quite quickly. They need to be soaked in water for about 15 minutes prior to use.
King stones have earned a worldwide reputation as one of the go-to waterstones and they are a natural choice for many first time practitioners of the freehand sharpening art. This is a great combo stone to “hone” your skills! And an exceptional value for such a good all-around product.

Over these years he has honed his craft by concentrating on perfecting his skills making just a few knife styles employing just a couple of steel types. His knives of choice are all traditional blade designs featuring a single bevel. His deba knives are among his most prized and appreciated.
The Kitaoka 150mm Deba Blue #2 is a perfect example of this dedication to his art. Fashioned in the traditional steel jacketed ‘awase’ way, these blades consist of a core ‘hagane’ steel for the cutting edge and a ‘jigane’ of soft iron for the spine and upper blade body. The hagane steel used here is Blue #2.
Blue #2 steel is made by Hitachi and sometimes called Blue Paper #2 since the steel is wrapped in blue paper when it’s sent to blacksmiths. This steel is highly regarded by blade makers and knife users. The alloy is made from Japanese pure sand irons. It has 1.10 ~1.20 high carbon with 0.20 ~0.50 Chromium and 1.00 ~1.50 Tungsten. It is manufactured at Hitachi’s Yasugi plant in Shimane Prefecture.
Aogami Blue #2 outperforms Shirogami (White Steel) in a couple of ways. Notably, better edge retention and an ability to take a more acute edge geometry. Kitaoka-san tempers his Blue Steel to an HRC of 62-63 which we think is a sweet spot for this alloy. This beautifully finished, strong blade is fitted with a nice, rosewood octagonal handle.
The Kitaoka 165mm Deba Blue #2 is a perfect example of this dedication to his art.

The Kitaoka 165mm Deba is made from Blue #2 Hitachi steel. This is a very popular alloy for kitchen knives. It is the same as White #2 but with added chromium and tungsten. These elements endow the alloy with better corrosion resistance and edge retention. Remember, though, that this is a carbon steel and must be carefully cleaned and dried after use.

This single-bevel knife is made specifically for left-handed users.
Deba knives are one of the three most popular, traditional knife shapes in Japan. The deba is mainly used for cleaning and filleting fish and dressing poultry and other meats. The heaviness of the very wide spine lends stability and extra heft that is needed to cut through tough joints and bones with ease. The thick spine of the blade gradually becomes thinner towards the tip allowing for a great amount of control in manipulating the blade when filleting fish and guiding it along bones.
The Kitaoka deba is constructed from Hitachi Blue #2 steel with a jigane of soft iron. The blade has a single bevel with a mild concave back side and a lovely primary bevel on the front revealing the core hagane steel just shy of the edge. The Blue #2 core steel has a great ability to take and maintain a sharp edge. The knife is completed with a nice rosewood octagonal handle.

The funayuki is a multi-purpose traditional single bevel Japanese knife. The name funayuki means "going on a boat." It comes from a custom of fishermen who used these knives to clean and prepare fish on the boat. The blade is exceptionally thin which gives it the ability to slice fish and vegetables in a very controlled and efficient manner. This knife requires great skill to successfully utilize without chipping. In Japan, only executive chefs are considered to possess the skills needed to handle these incredibly sharp but brittle knives.

I ended up having to work at it for a couple hours on a 200 grit stone to get it even.
After that was done the knife was basically unstoppable. Laser sharp.
Just wish the handle was a little more comfortable. Just a little too thin.
I would say that this knife was a pretty good buy. Not sure if my issues with the blade are common to this knife/brand but still worth the money.
Kiritsuke knives are one of the few multipurpose traditional Japanese blades. They can be used as a yanagi for fish slicing, or as an usuba for vegetable cutting. These sword-shaped knives feature a straighter edge than a yanagi and a longer blade than an usuba. In Japan the chef must be highly skilled with traditional Japanese knives in order to master this unique design correctly. In fact tradition has it that these knives are used only by the executive chefs as a symbol of status and due to its difficulty in use.
The Kitaoka 210mm Kiritsuke is made from the popular Hitachi Blue Paper #2 alloy with a soft iron jigane covering the front and spine. It is a single bevel knife and the core steel is hardened to 62-63 HRC. The back of the blade has a mild concave grind to aid in food release. The blade is very reactive so you must keep it completely dry between uses and wipe it down regularly if cutting acidic foods. The knife is intended for right-handed users only.

In our continued pursuit of meeting the needs of professional chefs and avid home cooks, we are very pleased to offer these great knives made by Hideo Kitaoka and his team of skilled craftsmen. Kitaoka-san has this to say about the process: “Traditional handicraftsmen requires us to acquire one skill at a time and we have to learn it with our hands and body. I make Deba and Japanese knives mainly, and I would like to try my best to make amazingly sharp and ‘cut that-makes-you-feel-great’ knives as the 3rd generation (of my business family).”
We believe that this knife, together with his other knives in this collection, are proof of his dedication and skill to the fine art of blade smith and knife maker. Please note these knives have a gapped machi comonly referred to as Tokyo Style. It is mostly for aesthetics. It is not a defect. Please refer to photo #4 to see how this looks. Most of his knives feature this.
The knife comes with a nice, upgraded rosewood octagonal handle.
The beautifully finished blade is made from Aogami Blue #2 steel with a soft iron outer layer (jigane). The steel is hardened to 62-63 Rockwell and has a single bevel ground into the right hand side of the blade. This is strictly a right handed user knife. Care must be taken with the cleaning and drying of the knife to prevent corrosion.
There is something about a kiritsuke that excites many knife users. The blade profile is slim and purposeful looking. The knife’s multi tasking ability is something many chefs are drawn to. This is a knife for experienced users. In fact, only the top executive chefs in Japanese restaurants are considered proficient enough to handle it.
Are you up to the task? If so you might find that this knife becomes your go-to blade for most of your kitchen cutting and slicing duties. Please note Kitaoka installs the machi on his knives with a gap that is called Tokyo Style. It's not a flaw, it's an aesthetic choice based on a traditional way of installing the handles. See photo #4 for a visual.
The usuba is designed for cutting vegetables. It has a single grind and features a fairly thin profile. The word Usuba translates to 'thin cutting edge'. The fine blade and slender spine minimizes the crushing of the vegetables' fibers, leaving a sharp shiny surface on the cut side. This is the knife used by experienced chefs to perform the difficult 'katsuramuki' rotary peeling technique.
The Kitaoka 180mm Usuba Blue #2 has a 'higashigata' style blade made popular in the Kanto area of Japan. This features a rectangular profile with squared off corners. It has a completely flat cutting edge so that it ends up flush to the board when slicing. It is a fairly stout knife with a blade heavy bias. This extra weight maximizes the efficiency of the cutting style called 'utsu', where the blade is kept parallel to the board and moved to the far side while allowing the weight of the knife to cut straight down through the produce. Please note the handle is installed Tokyo Style with the machi exposed. See photo #4.
The usuba knife has a humble look as compared to other Japanese blade designs, but don't let that look deceive you. This is a knife that requires great skill to to master.

This 210mm yanagiba is a short knife for the breed. Yanagibas are used for slicing fish and other proteins and are therefore preferred with a long blade. This knife is perfect for home chefs or instances where space is limited.
Kitaoka forges his knives from Hitachi Blue paper #2 steel hardened to 63-64 HRC. This high carbon Blue steel is white steel with chromium and tungsten added to it. Blue #2 has the same amount of carbon as white #2. The added chromium and tungsten lead to better corrosion resistance and edge retention (as well as deeper hardening). This does come at the cost of being more difficult to sharpen and not taking quite as keen of an edge. Blue steel also tends to be a little more brittle than its white counterpart.

Yanagi are single-beveled, which means that only one side of the blade edge is sharpened, and the other side is slightly concave in shape. The back side is curved to prevent fish from sticking to the blade. These blades are thicker than the average Western knife, but still considered relatively thin by Japanese standards.
Kitaoka-san has been forging high-end kitchen blades for 30 years. Although a relative newcomer to the ancient art of blade and knife making, he has gained a first-class reputation among his peers and professional chefs for his skills in forging and shaping wonderful blades in the traditional style.
This is a lovely yanagiba with a beautiful satin finished one-sided blade. These knives are finished with a rosewood octagonal Japanese style handle and black pakka wood ferrule. This type of handle creates a knife with overall lightness and a blade-forward balance--just what is needed in a yanagiba. There should be no need for downward pressure as the knife is pulled backwards to make the clean slice. Please note Kitaoka installs the machi on his knives with a gap that is called Tokyo Style.

Kitaoka only makes traditional Japanese knives. He has put all his time and effort into perfecting a few skills and knife styles rather than attempting to be a general practitioner of all blades and steels. His steel of choice is Aogami Blue #2. A high carbon alloy with added chromium and tungsten. These elements impart a toughness to the steel and aid in edge retention and overall durability. The alloy is hardened to 63-64 HRC. Of course the blade is going to be reactive, so please make sure to thoroughly dry it after every use.

The deba is traditionally used for filleting fish as well as cutting chicken, pork, and beef. Its heaviness and thickness allow for easy chopping through fish bones, while its ability to take on an extremely sharp edge allows for delicate work and the filleting of even the smallest fish.
This deba has a blade length of 183mm so it is suitable for medium sized fish and cuts of protein. It is sharpened from one side only with a slightly concave back side. It is quite a heavy knife at 11.6oz which is normal for a deba. The balance point is fairly forward. It has a very thick spine of over 8mm which tapers to a beautiful primary bevel. The elegant handle is made of rosewood, and the ferrule is black pakka wood.
We highly recommend Mr. Kitaoka's knives for anyone making traditional Japanese cuisine.
The factory edge was fantastic,very sharp,and the profile is perfect for me. The POB is forward,but very manageable especially with this length knife.
The blade road is rough,so I polished it out to a true kasumi finish and it really cuts and glides through proteins like a champ now. You can actually cut meats with a glossy finish,despite being a thicker knife. This knife really feels natural to me and makes fileting and cutting meats easy.
Loving the white #1 but to me the damascus is superfluous. On my knife,the uraoshi is not perfectly flat,but very well done nonetheless. Easily remedied if you know how to properly sharpen knives.
Bottom line: Excellent knife,the damascus is a little unnecessary and drives up the price a bit,but buy this knife if you like white #1 steel. You may need to polish the primary bevel if you really want a true kasumi finish.
The Kitaoka Damascus Funayuki is constructed with a core of Hitachi White Paper #1 steel which is covered with 12 layers of a softer carbon steel in a damascus style. It has a traditional Japanese single bevel profile, which is sharpened on one side. The back side is given a slightly concave profile to aid in food release. The single bevel allows for a potentially sharper edge than would be found on a double bevel knife.
Hideo Kitaoka has been hand-forging classic Japanese kitchen knives for over 30 years from his small shop in Takefu Village, Echizen in Fukui Prefecture. He is well known for his beautiful and skillful use of the Suminagashi (Damascus) cladding technique. The 12-layer Damascus cladding protects and strengthens the inner core steel, which is hardened to 63-64 HRC. These blades are capable of taking a screaming sharp edge and holding it through hours of work. This lovely funayuki is finished with a classic octagonal rosewood handle and black pakka wood ferrule.
Usuba knives are designed for cutting vegetables and rotary peeling. Their dead flat edge contacts the board at all points so that accordion cuts are avoided. The name usuba translates to thin edge. This is not only a great performer but it is a visually stunning knife too. The damascus is some of the best we have seen and the fit and finish is exemplary. Blade performance is equally impressive. With a hardness rating of 63-64 Rockwell, these edges will hold their sharpness for a long time while being less brittle than other carbon steel blades.
The blade is mated to a really well finished octagonal handle made from rosewood and black pakka wood.

The Kitaoka Damascus Yanagiba featured here has a blade length of 240mm, which is perfectly suited for sushi preparation in places with limited space, while still allowing for a single cutting action. Due to the one-sided bevel this is a knife suited to right-hand users only.
The core steel of Hitachi White Paper #1 is clad with multiple layers of a softer carbon steel, creating a beautiful Damascus pattern, while protecting and strengthening the Higane. Care must be taken to clean and dry this knife during and after use to prevent discoloration or corrosion.
The Kitaoka Damascus Yanagiba is one of the finest sushi knives we sell and is recommended to any home or professional chef looking for a finely crafted and effective slicing tool.
Hideo Kitaoka crafts his fine blades from his small shop in Takefu Village, where he has honed his skills for the past 30 years. These are completely handmade knives exuding quality, great looks, and soul. Kitaoka-san explains his passion: "There have been many times when I've felt frustrated, but it is fun to make 10 or 20 knives with the same shape, by simply pounding a hammer on a red-hot iron lump. I think that's what the mind of a craftsman is."
This particular yanagiba is constructed using the popular White #1 steel or Shiro-Ko 1. This steel is identical to Blue #1 except for the absence of chromium and tungsten, so it is pretty much a pure carbon steel. Because of this it takes an extremely fine edge and is a very popular knife steel for Japanese cutlery. It has great edge retention and can be hardened to a high working hardness, in this case 63-64 HRC.
This Kitaoka Damascus Yanagiba has a blade length of 270mm and is the perfect size for most chefs and kitchens. It comes with a lovely rosewood and black pakka wood octagonal handle.
The Kitaoka Damascus Yanagiba is made entirely by hand. It is forged by Hideo Kitaoka in his small workshop in Takefu Village.
Shirogami #1 steel is used in the core construction of the blade with a multilayer hagane (or cladding) of soft carbon steel outside. This is forged into a beautiful Damascus pattern which enhances the strength and durability of the knife. It is a single handed design, as is the case with all single bevel knives, this one being suitable for right-handed users only. Like all similar constructions, the carbon blade requires care with cleaning and drying to reduce the chances of corrosion and discoloration. The beautiful slim blade is complimented by a traditional octagonal handle made from rosewood and black Pakka wood for the ferule.
Of course this is primarily intended as a sushi knife, though other raw or cooked boneless proteins can be sliced with it. The most important aspect of which is to ensure that the fish is cut with a single and light action,thus minimizing the damage caused to the cellular structure of the ingredient which would result from the use of a rough sawing action. The added length of the 300mm blade makes this task easier than with a shorter variety. Of course you do need some serious board space to utilize its full size.
The Kitaoka Damascus Yanagiba is a very fine sushi knife that is easy to recommended to any home or professional chef in search of a superbly crafted and gorgeous looking Japanese slicing knife.
The deba is traditionally used for filleting fish as well as cutting chicken, pork, and beef. Its heaviness and thickness allow for easy chopping through fish bones, while its ability to take on an extremely sharp edge allows for delicate work and the filleting of even the smallest fish.
We highly recommend Mr. Kitaoka's knives for anyone making traditional Japanese cuisine.
Kitaoka-san has been making high end Japanese knives for over 30 years. This particular line of knives have a cutting edge which is formed from Hitachi white paper #1 a high-carbon steel known for its hardness and superior edge retention. He forges these knives to 63-64 HRC. A 12-layer cladding of softer carbon steel is applied resulting in Suminagashi finish that adds to the beauty and strength of the blade. Kiritsuke knives are traditionally sharpened on one side only, with the reverse side featuring a slight concave profile. This geometry is suitable for right-handed users only.
The use of high carbon steel necessitates care with maintenance and drying of the knife after use to prevent corrosion or discoloration. The beautiful sword-like blade is complemented by a traditional octagonal handle made from rosewood and black pakka wood for the ferrule. This is a wonderful multi-purpose knife, but one that requires skill to extract the full potential.
The Kitaoka Damascus Kiritsuke is a completely handmade knife, forged by Hideo Kitaoka in his small workshop in Takefu Village. The core construction of the blade uses Shirogami #1 steel with a multilayer cladding of soft carbon steel, which forms a beautiful Damascus pattern and enhances the strength and durability of the knife. As with all single bevel knives it is a single-handed design, this particular blade being suitable for right-handed users only. The carbon blade also requires care with cleaning and drying to reduce the chances of corrosion and discoloration.
A traditional octagonal handle made from rosewood with a black pakka wood ferrule completes the package. We really like this series of knives and thoroughly recommend them to any cook or chef looking for fine craftsmanship and performance in their kitchen knives.
The White #1 line of knives have a cutting edge which is formed from Aogami #1, a high-carbon steel known for its hardness and superior edge retention. He hardens these knives to 63-64 HRC. A beautifully forged 12-layer cladding of softer carbon steel is applied resulting in a stunning damascus finish that adds to the beauty and strength of the blade. Traditional kiritsuke knives are sharpened on one side only, with the reverse side featuring a slight concave profile. Because the edge is sharpened on the left side of the blade, this knife is only suitable for right-hand users.
The shape and size of a kiritsuke result in a knife with a dual personality. It can be used like a usuba for the cutting of vegetables or as a yanagiba to slice raw fish. But it should be noted that these types of knives require skill to use effectively and are therefore usually reserved for executive chefs in Japanese kitchens. The beautiful blade is made more so by the addition of a traditional octagonal handle made from rosewood and black pakka wood for the ferrule.
This stone is soft,so Mark recommended that I only strop on it. of course I didn’t listen so I did snow-plow and gouge it a little (a very little),so back to only stroping for me.
For me,this is a great finishing stone at a reasonable price. Highly recommend.
We have recently switched to a baseless version of this stone following overwhelming customer preference, with a vote of 10 to 1 in favor. The baseless design allows sharpening on both sides of the stone.

Up till now he’s been working as a sharpener and finisher for a couple of leading blacksmiths, but he recently branched out into forging himself. The Kobayashi SG2 Bunka 170mm is one of the nicest knives of its type that we carry in the CKTG store.
He has chosen to work with SG2 as basis of these first offerings. SG2 is renowned for its super dense grain structure and purity. These attributes make it harder and less brittle than other similar steels. This results in a knife that has the ability to take and retain a very fine edge. It is also incredibly durable. The inner core of SG2 is clad with a softer stainless steel for added protection and to make sharpening easier.
The bunka is a wonderful all-around slicer and dicer that is becoming a first choice blade in many home kitchens. Its tall blade gives the increased finger-to-board clearance while its shorter length makes it ideal for handling a wide variety of produce and proteins.
The knife comes with an unusual seven-sided handle made from dyed lacquer coated pakka wood.
He has picked SG2 as the first steel he will be offering. The super dense grain structure and purity of SG2 make it both harder and yet less brittle than other similar steels. So we have a knife with the ability to take and retain a very fine edge that is also incredibly durable. It is this combination of outstanding edge performance and toughness that results in SG2 being considered by many to be one of the world’s best blade materials for use in kitchen knives. The inner core of SG2 is clad with a softer stainless steel for added protection.
These are lasers in the true sense of the word. They are super thin and very well finished. The spine and choil areas have been nicely rounded and the stainless jigane and comes with a beautiful damascus cladding on the knife. The knife comes with a very nice walnut octagonal handle with maple ferrule. This is an impressive knife!

We are very excited to introduce you to a new smith who is making knives for the first time in his career. Kei Kobayashi has, up till now, been a very talented sharpener and finisher working for a couple of the top blacksmiths. But he recently branched out into knifemaking himself and these knives are the first of his offerings to reach these shores. Considering his short time at the forge we have to say that we are extremely impressed.
Kobayashi-san is using the wonderful PM steel known as SG2 for these knives and this pleases us greatly. We are big fans of this high tech steel for many reasons, none less than its outstanding edge performance and toughness together with its ability to take a super fine edge. The core of SG2 is encased in a jigane of a soft stainless steel to protect the core and also make sharpening much easier. The outer layer is given a fine hairline finish to contrast with the polished SG2 edge steel.
These knives are real lasers. They are very thin and light and have a wonderful feel on the cutting board. The perfect balance of the knife is achieved with the use of a very unusual seven-sided one-piece handle made from pakka wood which is finished with a great feeling lacquer treatment.
We are excited to offer these new knives to our customers while enabling this young smith to sing his song, which so far is note perfect!

This is a classically sized and styled petty, with a blade length of about 150mm and a height at the heel of 30mm. It features a really nicely relieved and rounded choil and spine. The hairline finish is enhanced with some finely hand-chiseled kanji elements. A rather unusual seven-sided handle that is made from pakka wood and finished with a lacquer coating completes this package perfectly.

Adding to our canon of sujihiki blades is this striking rendition by new blacksmith Kei Kobayashi. We were introduced to this young man by a good friend of ours in the business and were immediately impressed with the quality of his knives. The grinds are very well executed and the finishing of the blade is of a high quality. The blade face is a soft stainless steel and it is given a lovely hairline finish. The inner core is made with SG2 steel and this is exposed at the edge with a high polished finish. The subtle looking blade is treated to some very fine hand chiseled kanji elements and a rather unusual seven-sided handle made from lacquer-coated pakka wood.
The Kobayashi SG2 Sujihiki 270mm is an elegant and high performance knife that exudes quality in every regard. It is an exciting first effort from this young blacksmith who we are proud to represent in our store.
With a blade length of 210mm, this knife ensures precision with every cut. Its even edge grind, 360mm overall length, and 2.2mm spine thickness at the heel promise consistent performance.

The Kohetsu Aogami Super is made exclusively for CKTG by the extremely talented blacksmith, Tsukahara-san, working in Seki City. We have specified a hardness of 64 HRC which we feel is a good number for this popular steel. It will thus hold a sharp edge longer but will take a bit more effort to sharpen. The core steel is clad in stainless steel for added strength and ease of daily maintenance.
The blade has a nice progressive grind which Mr. Tsukahara biases slightly more on the right side than the left. He also feathers and thins out the tip for greater cutting performance.
A nicely finished ho wood handle featuring a traditional octagonal shape means this knife is light and easy to hold while being suitable for right- and left-handed users.
The knives feature a stainless steel san-mai cladding which protects the core steel, thus aiding with ease of maintenance and increasing strength. The edge will oxidize over time, so do be aware of this when cleaning and storing the knife.
The grind on this blade is very thin with good convexing, which results in less stiction. It has a nice progressive grind which Mr. Tsukahara biases more on the right side than the left. He also feathers and thins out the tip for greater cutting performance. Even though it is asymmetrical it will still work well for left- and right-handed users.
180mm is about as short as gyutos go. As such it will find an audience with users with smaller hands or cooks who are starting up in the kitchen and want a more controllable blade to start with. It will also do a wonderful job in restricted sized work areas and with smaller ingredients and garnishes. This really is a great little knife that performs right along with the big boys!
The Kohetsu Aogami Super Gyuto 210mm is a really good blade made from Aogami Super carbon steel with a stainless steel cladding. The inner core AS steel is heat-treated to a hardness of 64 Rockwell. Aogami Super is popular steel that holds its sharp edge well yet is still relatively easy to sharpen. The stainless cladding protects the blade from corrosion and makes for easy maintenance. The exposed AS steel edge needs to be kept dry but will develop a patina over time which will aid in its protection. The blade has a thinner than average grind and 60/40 asymmetrical edge.
Often times you will see a hazy/cloudy scratch pattern on the edge of the blade. This is not a defect. The knife sharpener intentionally thins the edges of these knives to make them perform better, especially in the tip area.
The octagonal gray handles are well finished and durable so they make a perfect match to the outstanding blades.
The out of the box edge is very good. The handle is well done.
Anybody considering an 8 inch chefs knife should consider this one because it’s light weight and length is not exactly bulky.
I don’t feel like this knife is much larger than my 8 inch Shun classic.
It will be very difficult to find a stainless clad knife made of this type of steel for under 200$.
It can be overwhelming looking at taking the plunge into quality Japanese knifes.
At it’s price point I do not feel like I bought an entry level product.
If you have skepticism about house branded products from Mr. Richmond,this would be a great ice breaker.
Thanks to Mr Richmond for making this knife possible.
A big thanks to Mrs Richmond for shipping fast.
II do feel like I got a high end knife at a competitive price point.
Once again I certainly do not feel like I bought an entry level product.
Thank you Mark for the help and to make this knife possible!

The honesuki style of knife is used for boning work, mostly for poultry. But many cooks find the knife useful for a wide variety of cutting chores in the kitchen. The triangular shape and sharp point enable the user to get into places other blades simply cannot reach. It’s the kind of knife that once used will become a go-to blade.

We have created the Kohetsu line with a simple philosophy of providing a well made and straightforward knife at a super competitive price. High quality and high value are what defines the brand. Once you try this fun knife we trust you will agree with us.
The grinds on this line of knives are very thin and coupled with some nice convexing, resulting in a blade that is less prone to generate stiction. Mr. Tsukahara grinds these blades more on the right side than the left and he feathers and thins out the tip for superior cutting performance. These knives will work well for left- and right-handed users.
There is a fascination with kiritsuke tipped knives that is very understandable. The look is most obvious. They resemble weapons more than any other kitchen knife shape. But just as important is the function they provide from having a slightly flatter profile than a regular gyuto. Push cutters will love the profile more than rockers. The fine tip is also great for intricate detail work.

Kohetsu knives cut to the core of blade design and execution. Try one...we know you will agree.
The Kohetsu Aogami Super petty 120mm is a lovely blade made with Aogami Super carbon steel and a stainless cladding. The inner core AS steel is heat treated to a hardness of 64 Rockwell. We send this steel to a highly regarded blacksmith shop in Japan for shaping and assembly. Aogami Super is a popular steel that holds its sharp edge well.
We made these knives with a no muss, no fuss attitude. They are a straightforward knife devoid of bling and pricey accouterments; you are buying a tool that will do the job at a price that is very competitive and easy on the wallet. Comes with a traditional octagonal ho wood handle with a water buffalo horn ferrule.

We do not have a saya that fits this knife. The felt blade guard is recommended instead.
The 150mm petty sits in the sweet spot of petty blade lengths, usually between 120mm and 160mm. As such it can fulfill many roles in the kitchen: a vegetable cutter and dicer, a slicer of small proteins, or a nimble all-purpose chopper. It comes with a ho wood octagonal handle that, together with its 60/40 grind, makes it suitable for both left- and right-handed users. The blade falls towards the light side of the scale and features the characteristic thin grind and edge found on all of these nicely balanced knives. This is a nice, easy knife to hold and use and represents great value.

Thin grind,hard steel and well balanced. What more could one want?
It is also light and the out-of-the-box edge is respectable.
(didn’t stop me from refining the edge on my leather strops though; achieved shaving sharpness with just a few strokes)
All in all i think that not many other Santokus in this price category can go toe-to-toe with this Kohetsu and live to tell the tale.
Blade angle seems to be below the 15° that so many Richmond knives have. Maybe 11° or 12° but this is only a rough estimate.
Wonderful grind,great edge retention,good height and excellent weight.
I use it on the line when my 240’s are too big to fit and it’s a great small batch prep knife as well,I frequently use it when doing bruinoise shallots.
This one has me tempted to buy the rest of this line as my knife kit. Love the knife you won’t find better for the price range.
i decided to get the 240 gyuto as well.
The Kohetsu AS santoku is one of the knives made exclusively for CKTG. We have specified a hardness of 64 HRC which we feel is a good number for this popular steel. It will thus hold a sharp edge longer but will take a bit more effort to sharpen. The core steel is clad in stainless steel for added strength and ease of daily maintenance.
A nicely finished ho wood handle featuring a traditional octagonal shape means this knife is light and easy to hold while being suitable for right- and left-handed users.

Sujihikis are perfect for all slicing and carving jobs. Whether raw or cooked, proteins will fall prey to this narrow and thin blade. Want to make see-through carpaccio? This is your knife!
The Kohetsu AS sujihiki is both elegant and efficient. The knife comes with a fine pakka wood octagonal handle and 60/40 grind, and it works equally well with right- or left-handed users.
Sujihikis can run into the thousands of dollars. This knife proves that much of these hyper-blade’s attributes can be realized with a sensible outlook toward blade construction and design.
Please note, the knife sharpener intentionally thins the edges of these knives to make them perform better, especially on the tip area. Oftentimes you will see a hazy/cloudy scratch pattern as a result. This is not a defect.
A great deal of knife for a great deal!
The Kohetsu AS Togatta Gyuto 240mm is the larger of the gyuto styles. It weighs in at 5.7 ounces. It has a nice thin tip with a little distal taper towards the point. This Togatta profile is very similar to the Masamoto KS. It has a nice nimble feeling to it and comes with a super sharp edge right out of the box.
Aogami Super Steel is made by Hitachi and is top-shelf carbon steel. These knives are heat-treated to 64-65 on the Rockwell Hardness Test (HRC), even harder than the traditional carbon steels used for knives. It can be relatively easily sharpened on normal waterstones, if not quite as easily as traditional steels. Knives from this steel keep their sharpness longer than most other carbon steels. The knife is clad with stainless steel for easy care and good looks.

The Kohetsu AS Western Gyuto is made with stainless cladding over a core of Aogami Super steel. AS is regarded as a fantastic carbon steel for kitchen knives. We specified that the steel be hardened to an HRC rating of 64. The stainless cladding protects the blade from corrosion and makes for easy maintenance. The exposed AS steel edge needs to be kept dry but will develop a patina over time which will aid in its protection and add to the great looks of this kitchen workhorse.
The handles feature a full tang style, nicely made out of mahogany wood with three stainless rivets and a stainless bolster.
Kohetsu knives are about bringing you the best cutting performance using the top steels on the market with impeccable heat treatment and nice, thin grinds at an affordable price. This line has taken us years to develop and refine and we think the efforts have paid off.
There is a fascination with kiritsuke tipped knives that is very understandable. The look is most obvious. They resemble weapons more than any other kitchen knife shape. But just as important is the function they provide from having a slightly flatter profile than a regular gyuto. Push cutters will love the profile more than rockers. The fine tip is also great for intricate detail work.
The grinds on this knife are very thin and together with the convex profile result in a blade that is less prone to food stiction. Mr. Tsukahara grinds these blades more on the right side than the left and he feathers and thins out the tip for superior cutting performance. So while is made with a slight bias of 60/40, it is a good choice for left- or right-handed users. The handles feature a full tang style, nicely made out of mahogany wood with three stainless rivets and a stainless bolster.
There is something quite intriguing about the shape of a bunka. The combination of the reverse tanto-style tip and short, tall blade lend the knife a very purposeful look. These knives are gaining in popularity recently due to their do-it-all abilities. They are adept at cutting, slicing, and chopping, while the tip affords them the ability to take on smaller ingredients and get into tight spaces. They are a good choice for making garnishes and undertaking detail work of all kinds.
This fun and functional kitchen knife looks as great as it performs. The top shelf fit and finish can be seen in the finely crafted western mahogany handle mated to a lovely stainless bolster. Some embossed kanji set off the lovely satin finish on the blade. All around, this bunka is a great knife at a very affordable price.
AS stands for Aogami Super steel. It is a high quality carbon steel that takes and holds a great edge. It will rust if you don't wipe it dry after use but the knife is clad with stainless steel for easy care. Over time the edge will darken and it will look more attractive with age and use.
The gyuto featured here is a medium-length blade that will work in most kitchen environments. It is long enough to tackle most ingredients while being compact enough for easy use in smaller kitchens and spaces. The grinds on these knives are quite exceptional and the edge is pretty sharp right out of the box.

Featuring a very well executed and thin grind, these AS blades are hardened to a Rockwell of 64. The stainless cladding reinforces the core steel and adds a protective layer to the carbon steel. The exposed edge will develop a patina after a while which will add further protection to the blade. The blade has a thinner than average grind and 60/40 asymmetrical edge that is good for both left and right handed users.
While the Kohetsu AS line is a value brand, it does boast a high level of fit and finish. The blade face is beautifully presented with a lovely satin finish and some handsome embossed kanji. The handle assembly is, likewise, well done featuring a polished stainless bolster and attractive mahogany handle secured with three stainless rivets.
The Kohetsu Aogami Super Gyuto 270mm is the longest knife in this exclusive line of CKTG kitchen knives. It is a knife fit for tackling big cuts of protein and working through the sacks of vegetables that pro chefs are faced with on a daily basis. Of course a knife of this size requires a big cutting board and lots of counter space. But given those criteria, this blade will outperform any smaller chef style knives with ease and efficiency.
While it boasts a long cutting edge, the knife is not super tall at just 52.4mm. Because of this, the profile is fairly flat all the way to the slim tip. It is also quite thin but no laser for sure. Its lower height relative to other 270mm gyutos make it a nimble and easy to handle knife. It is also easy to keep sharp and maintain given its fully stainless steel cladding over the core of Aogami Super steel.
The blade is coupled to a really comfortable Western style mahogany handle with stainless bolster and rivets. Fit and finish are of an extremely high standard and the package looks and feels like the fine implement that it is.
We thoroughly recommend you take a good look at this great line of kitchen knives, which combines great materials, good fit and finish, and a truly professional feel. The Kohetsu AS Western gyuto is an easy choice for chefs looking for a big knife at a less than big price.
The blade is made from Aogami Super steel with a stainless cladding. AS is a fantastic carbon steel for kitchen knives and in the case of the Kohetsu AS line, the alloy is hardened to an HRC of 64. The stainless cladding protects the blade from corrosion and makes for easy maintenance. The exposed AS steel edge needs to be kept dry but will develop a patina over time, which will aid in its protection.
The handle features a full tang style, nicely made out of mahogany wood with three stainless rivets and a stainless bolster.
We start with one of the top carbon steels available, Aogami Super, which is clad with a soft stainless steel to protect the blade from corrosion and makes for easy maintenance. Our skilled blacksmith hardens the blade to 64 HRC which results in an edge that is both sharp and resilient.
The nakiri is a vegetable chopping knife with an easy to sharpen blade which can be used by left- or right-handed users. The boxy shape originates from the traditional Japanese usuba knife. This blade shape has become increasingly popular with professional chefs and home cooks as it allows for very fast and efficient food processing. The long flat blade makes almost perfect contact with the cutting board, thus reducing the occurrence of accordion cuts.
The blade features a satin finish with a nice embossed kanji. Fit and finish on these knives is first rate and it carries over to the fine mahogany western handle.

The 120mm petty is a small knife suited for a multitude of cutting and paring tasks. It is the perfect tool for chopping and slicing smaller items and a little gem when it comes to intricate garnish preparation. Watch out ripe tomato, you’ve met your match! This compact knife will also suit smaller hands more than other larger knives.

The main ingredient of the knife is Aogami Super Blue, commonly referred to as AS on the CKTG forums. Aogami Super is known for the super acute and ultra-keen edges that it is able to produce. Not only can it take a fantastic edge, but it will hold it for a very long time. AS arguably has the best edge retention of all the blue and white carbon steels that we carry. The heat treat on this knife ranges from 63-64 HRC. This is a superlative carbon steel that makes a great foundation for this attractive and well-priced petty.
The knife is machine finished with some nice stamped kanji elements. Because it is laminated with a stainless steel the blade is protected up to the exposed AS core. So a simple wipe down and dry will be all that is needed to keep it looking good. The out of the box edge is very well done as are the well finished bolster and handle.
The Kohetsu AS Western Petty 150mm is a classically sized and styled petty, with a blade length of about 146mm and a height at the heel of almost 29mm. It features a really nicely polished choil and a flat cutting edge that sweeps to the fine tip almost 3/4 of the way along the blade.

We have created the Kohetsu AS Western line of knives for chefs of all kinds, whether amateur or professional. The blades are made from one of our very favorite carbon steels, Aogami Super. This highly regarded alloy has been developed by Hitachi Metals and is liked by many makers of fine kitchen utensils. The core steel is clad with a softer stainless layer to protect it from corrosion while making the blade less brittle.
One outstanding attribute of the Kohetsu AS line is the high level of fit and finish, especially in light of the affordable cost. The blade face is beautifully presented with a lovely satin finish and some handsome embossed kanji. The handle assembly is, likewise, well done featuring a polished stainless bolster and attractive mahogany handle secured with three stainless rivets.
We are very proud of these Kohetsu knives and feel that they represent one of the best values in our store.

Many of our customers are line cooks and we made this knife as a no frills line knife that should be a great and long lasting cutter. The knife is clad in stainless steel so only the mirror finished carbon steel edge will be reactive. Less maintenance...more productivity!
Kohetsu loosely translates to "be happy" in Japanese and we hope this knife will make you happy for years to come. The knife is made in Japan to our exacting specifications.
This knife is a fantastic deal and a great introduction to Japanese carbon kitchen knives. Please note the edge on these knives is carbon steel and you need to dry the knife blade with a dish towel after washing it to avoid rusting.
This 210mm gyuto is a great cutter at a fantastic price. The nicely proportioned handle is balanced by the finely ground blade. It’s an attractive knife full of character while being easy to maintain.
While carbon steels require some care in that they can discolor or rust, the addition of stainless cladding reduces this to just the exposed edge. The extra care needed on this edge is offset by the much easier sharpening characteristics of the metal. Even a novice sharpener will feel comfortable bringing this edge up to its full potential.
The knife comes with a very good asymmetrical grind that is about 60/40 making it great for left- and right-handed users.
You will be hard pressed to find a better value in a knife than this lovely 210mm Kohetsu gyuto. The knife is topped off with a very nice urushi finished handle made of solid oak wood in an octagonal configuration.
CKTG had fantastic service and very quick shipping!
For those that have big hands,this knife has a little larger handle similar in size to a Wusthof Classic. The only thing I might like to see possibly changed is the front of the handle. I wouldn’t mind to see it slightly tapered and rounded a little more. But this knife cuts great!

The Blue #2 270mm gyuto is a great performing knife. Very thin behind the edge, it almost falls into the laser class of knife. Using such a thin knife requires some extra care, but that care is rewarded with its superior cutting abilities. And the stainless cladding really helps with day-to-day maintenance.
The exposed carbon edge is very sharp out of the box but give it some time on your favorite fine grit stone and it will reward you with a cutting ability found in knives costing multiples of its price. New to sharpening? This is a wonderful place to start as the steel enables a beginner sharpener to get a really good edge even with a less than perfect technique.
A great value and one of our favorite low cost gyutos. Give it a try. We guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Kiritsuke style gyutos boast a profile that is quite flat from the heel to about two thirds along to end. They then transition into a gentle curve to the kiritsuke tip. The blade length of this specimen is 240mm at the edge which is perfectly proportioned to the 50mm height. Of course the outstanding physical feature of all kiritsuke knives is the reverse tanto tip, which results in a knife with a slightly different balance than a regular gyuto. The tip is also great at getting into tight spaces and doing detail work normally associated with thinner style blades.

Kohetsu Blue #2 Bunka 170mm. This Kohetsu bunka was created to make life easier for busy cooks.

Kohetsu loosely translates to "be happy" in Japanese, and we know this knife will live up to its name.
These “knives for cutting greens” feature a very square shape and double bevel grind. They have quite straight edges for increased chop cutting and slicing prowess.
The Kohetsu Blue #2 nakiri is a really nice example of the breed. It has a well-executed grind and the aesthetics to match. Add in the fact that the blade is constructed from the well-regarded steel known as Aogami # 2, and you have a knife that offers much…for not much at all! The excellent main core steel is protected and strengthened by adding stainless steel cladding. Upkeep is reduced considerably while superior edge creation and retention are maintained. This is a bona fide handcrafted blade of great quality and design at a price that is more in keeping with mass-produced items of similar type.
If you have ever wanted to try a nakiri or the excellent Blue #2 steel (or both), this is a perfect and economical place to start.

The bunka featured here is made from Blue #2 high carbon steel, made by Hitachi. This steel is regarded as one of the best to use in the making of kitchen knives. As it is high carbon, we clad the blade in a layer of stainless steel so that only the mirror finished edge will be reactive. The nashiji finish helps food slide right off the knife, simplifying a busy prep session and adding to the overall great looks. We are particularly excited about the excellent heat treatment and very nice grinds.
There is something quite intriguing about the shape of a bunka. The combination of the reverse tanto-style tip and short, tall blade lend the knife a very purposeful look.

180mm is the shortest length of most gyutos. The knife is ideal for smaller hands, smaller cutting boards, or smaller ingredients. But do not let the label throw you. This is a big performer capable of tackling almost any normal kitchen-cutting task. Most vegetables or proteins can be processed with a blade this size. The shorter and lighter size of this gyuto also gives it a quality that feels fast and nimble. In fact, with its short height and pointed profile, it could be easily mistaken for a long petty.
We have just upgraded the knife with a new walnut octagonal handle and pakka wood ferrule. The Kohetsu Blue #2 series knives are a fantastic deal. **Our 180mm Gyuto Saya does NOT fit this knife. The spine of the knife is very thick at the heel.
Blue #2 is a highly reactive steel which normally requires careful attention to cleaning and drying. However, with the addition of a softer stainless steel outer layer, this chore has been minimized considerably. This outer layer is given a Nashiji, or pear skin, finish to further enhance the look and functionality of the knife. You will still need to take care of the polished edge and dry the knife after each use.
Unlike classic single-beveled honesukis, the Kohetsu Blue #2 Nashiji features a double bevel ground with a 50/50 profile. This makes the knife easier to use and sharpen.
The blade is augmented with a nice walnut octagonal handle and black pakka wood ferrule. This is a really useful small knife at a commendably small price.
Blue #2, or Aogami 2, high carbon steel is one of the most popular steels used in knife making. It is formulated from Japanese pure sand irons at Hitachi’s famous Yasugi plant in Shimane Prefecture. It is noted for its high level of edge retention and ability to take a very acute edge. Although it is very reactive, this problematic attribute has been diminished by the use of soft stainless steel cladding. The core steel edge still requires careful drying and cleaning, but the lovely nashiji (pear skin) finish of the stainless hagane will reduce this task to a minimum.
Classic deba knives feature a single bevel and are thus more difficult to use and sharpen. The Kohetsu Blue #2 Nashiji Ko Deba, however, has been ground with a symmetrical 50/50 double bevel, thus overcoming these issues.
This is the perfect knife for filleting small fish and poultry as well as processing other small items like vegetables. Finished with a nice octagonal walnut and pakka wood handle, the Kohetsu Blue #2 Nashiji Ko Deba represents a wonderful value which we at CKTG are happy share with our customers.

The Kohetsu Blue #2 Nashiji Petty is a great little knife that can be applied to many cutting tasks around the kitchen. And at its very affordable price, could prove to be the gateway you have been seeking into the fascinating world of Japanese knives.
The design is classic sujihiki, but with a slight twist in that the tip has been cut straight from the spine to the point rather than with a curve, like a mini tanto. There is not much distal taper to the spine but it does thin out toward the tip in a very nice way. The blade is quite flat along most of the edge, but it develops into a nicely curved belly towards the tip. Because of this, the blade is quite stiff at the back end, with a bit of flex apparent towards the tip.
The blade is mated to a simple octagonal handle made from walnut with a pakka wood ferrule. Overall this is a very nice slicer that looks great is well-made and comes at a good price.

The Kohetsu Blue #2 petty 80mm is a great blade for all of your small kitchen cutting tasks. The short and stout blade can get into all sorts of tight spaces, like cutting around bones, and is also able to tackle the finest and most intricate garnish preparations.
The knife is made with a very nice symmetrical grind making it great for left- and right-handed users. A yo pakka wood handle finishes off this high value package.
The thin edge is sharpened to a 50/50 bevel which makes it a perfect tool for left- and right- handed users. The edge will patina but that will only enhance the look of this pretty knife. The edge is easy to maintain even for novice sharpeners.
Sujis are wonderful knives for cutting and slicing all kinds of proteins and the 270mm length of this blade enables you to obtain paper thin slices with just one stroke.
Many of our customers are line cooks and we made this knife with them in mind. But home chefs will be equally pleased by this knife’s combination of super performance, great looks, and superb value.
The profile you see here is very tall for a gyuto and the knife has a nice workhorse feel to it, even though the edge geometry is thin. This is a big performer capable of tackling pretty much any normal kitchen cutting task. If you like the feel of a big knife with lots of knuckle clearance then this knife is for you.
The bunka featured here is made from HAP40 steel by renowned blacksmith Tsukahara-San. HAP40 is right at the top of our preferred knife alloys. It is a very fine-grained steel with the ability to take an edge with relative ease and hold that edge through a prolonged period of use. HAP40 polishes to a super sharp edge that will eventually take on a nice patina. We have the core steel encased in a softer stainless steel for added protection, strength, and lightness. Our bunka saya is too big for this thin knife. Try the blade guard instead.
Bunkas are great all-around kitchen knives. They have a really nice height-to-length ratio for tackling smaller proteins and vegetables. The slim tanto style tip is perfect for getting into hard to reach places and taking on intricate tasks such as garnish preparation.
The edge grind is superb. It is a 60/40 bevel with an out of the box sharpness that is among the best we have ever encountered. Fit and finish are of equal quality. The knife comes with a very nice black and grey pakkawood handle.
We are very fortunate it be able to offer these exclusively made knives to you. They represent a merging of traditional (methods) with modern (materials) and they would make a great addition to your kitchen knife roll or block.
The Kohetsu HAP40 Wa Gyuto 210mm is the smaller of the gyuto styles. It weighs in at 5.5 ounces. It has a nice thin tip with a little distal taper towards the point. It has a nice nimble feeling to it and comes with a super sharp edge right out of the box.
HAP40 is fine-grained enough to sharpen very well and rates 64-68 on the Rockwell Hardness Test (HRC)—even harder than the traditional carbon steels used for knives. Contrary to other HSS steels, it can be relatively easily sharpened on normal waterstones, if not quite as easily as traditional steels. Kitchen knives from this steel keep their sharpness 3 to 5 times longer than traditional knives. HAP40 is extremely tough, and so not as likely to chip along the edge as the steel used in traditional knives. We recently upgraded the knife handle with this beautiful gray and black pakka wood octagonal handle you see pictured.
Please note, the knife sharpener intentionally thins the edges of these knives to make them perform better, especially on the tip area. Often times you will see a hazy/cloudy scratch pattern as a result. This is not a defect. Please look at the 4th photo on this page to see it.
There is a bit of an asymmetrical aspect to the grind but it should be good for both left- and right-handed users. The profile is moderately flat with a bit of belly towards the fine tip. They come out of the box with one of the sharpest edges we have seen. In keeping with other knives made from the “voodoo steel” HAP40, it will hold that edge for a long time. Sharpening is also not a huge chore as the steel takes a good edge without much trouble. These are high performance knives in all respects. Fit and finish are also of a high order.

We really like HAP40 steel. Over the past few years, it has become recognized as one of the best steels on the market for the production of high quality, high durability kitchen knives. Unlike other powdered steels, it is fairly easy to sharpen on normal stones while holding a really sharp edge even after prolonged use.
The Kohetsu HAP40 Wa Gyuto 270mm is the largest blade in this line of exclusive-to-CKTG kitchen knives. It is a big knife perfectly sized for tackling large cuts of protein and working through those sacks of vegetables that pro chefs are faced with every day. A big cutting board and lots of counter space are needed to give this knife room to move. But given that space, this blade will outperform any smaller chef style knives with ease and efficiency.
The profile is fairly flat all the way to the slim tip. It’s also quite thin, to the point of being regarded as a laser style blade. Its smaller dimensions relative to other 270mm gyutos make it a nimble and easy to handle knife. It is also easy to keep sharp and maintain given its full stainless steel cladding over the core of HAP40 steel. This is one of the sharpest edges out of the box we have seen.
The blade is coupled to a nice upgraded dark grey pakka wood handle that's better looking and longer lasting. The knife looks and feels like the fine implement that it is. We thoroughly recommend you take a good look at this great line of kitchen knives combining great materials, good fit and finish, and professional feel. The Kohetsu HAP40 Wa Gyuto is an easy choice for chefs looking for a big knife at a less-than-big price.
Kohetsu makes these knives out of HAP40 semi-stainless steel which is forged to a very hard 65 Rockwell. In simple terms, it is an insanely hard steel. HAP40 is one of the hardest steels available for knife-making and it provides amazing edge retention. HAP40 polishes to a super sharp edge reasonably easily, especially considering its hardness. It holds that sharpness better than almost anything else we sell. It is a semi-stainless alloy that is then clad in a full stainless steel outer layer, so it's also easy to care for.
The blade features a gray pakkawoodle handle and a black pakkawood ferrule.
This is a basic chef style gyuto but with that fun and functional kiritsuke tip. A number of makers now produce double bevel kiritsukes, often called kiritsuke gyutos, for western users who appreciate the striking aesthetics of the profile but need the added versatility of a double bevel grind. The profile is fairly flat all the way to the slim tip. It is quite thin, to the point of being regarded as a laser style blade. The reverse tanto tip makes it a nimble and easy to handle knife. It is also easy to keep sharp and maintain given its full stainless steel cladding over the core of HAP40 steel.
There is a bit of an asymmetrical aspect to the grind but it should be good for both left- and right-handed users. These knives come out of the box with one of the sharpest edges we have seen.

These are high performance knives in all respects. Fit and finish are also of a high order.
Nakiris have a straight blade edge suitable for cutting all the way to the cutting board without the need for a horizontal pull or push. These knives are also quite thin. This makes them a perfect choice for cutting and chopping vegetables. They have become increasingly popular in American home kitchens for their abilities and interesting look.
Nakiris differ according to the region of origin, with knives in the Tokyo area being rectangular in shape, whereas the knives in the Osaka area are called kamagata nakiri and have a rounded corner on the far blunt side.
The inner core of HAP40 is covered with a full stainless cladding for strength and ease of maintenance. This is a very fine example of the breed with a nice understated look and fine edge grinds. It comes with a well finished black and gray handle made with akkawood. It's octagonal in shape and really makes a statement.

Petty knives are the second most popular blade for home chefs after the ubiquitous chef knife. With their light and nimble character they can be used for almost any cutting task on small ingredients as well as the preparation of garnishes and fine decorative items. The Kohetsu HAP40 range of kitchen cutlery is one of our most popular. Being both easy to maintain and exhibiting great edge retention, it is the perfect choice for home chefs who do not wish to spend too much time caring for the blade. The nicely finished gray pakkawood handle features a black pakkawood ferrule--the combination is attractive and understated. Great price and outstanding performance are the qualities most apparent with the Kohetsu HAP40 line. This is no exception.

The slim and light blade measures just slightly under the advertised 150mm with a nice height of 30mm. It has a nicely shaped tip and gently rounded belly forward of the main cutting area. While it is on the thin side of petty blades it is certainly no laser. This fine utensil features a progressive grind and is finished with a symmetrical 50/50 bevel.
HAP40 steel is manufactured by Hitachi Metals and the robust core semi stainless steel is then clad in a full stainless alloy for added protection and strength. The exposed HAP40 edge will eventually take on a nice patina. For lovers of traditional Japanese knives, we have specified this item with a lovely upgraded black and grey pakkawood octagonal handle.

HAP40 steel is at the top of our knife steel list. Hitachi Metals manufacture this excellent alloy. It is a fine-grained alloy that can take a screaming sharp edge. It can also be sharpened with relative ease. The inner core is further strengthened and protected by fully stainless outer cladding.
We are very fortunate it be able to offer these exclusively made knives to you. They represent a merging of traditional (methods) with modern (materials) and would make a great addition to your kitchen knife roll or block.
The blade is quite thin in profile and is quite light in weight. Spine thickness is on the thin side with just a little taper to the tip. It is a 50/50 bevel edge so it’s perfect for left- or right-handed users. The long slender blade is slightly curved at the spine for extra clearance at the handle end. The edge has a very smoothly curved profile with a mild belly. Out of the box edge sharpness is very good. *The knife protector fits better than our suji sayas.
The knife has very good fit and finish on the handle, which is a traditional ho wood octagonal design with a highly polished buffalo horn ferrule. The balance is quite forward due to the light handle. This is a nice trait to have on a long bladed knife. These knives are purposely sharpened with a very thin edge especially in the tip region. Because of this there might be some slightly cloudy scratch patterns in these areas. This is not a defect. Check out the 4th photo for a close up detail.
The Kohetsu HAP40 Wa Gyuto 240mm is the larger of the gyuto styles. It weighs in at 4.8 ounces. It has a nice thin tip with a little distal taper towards the point. It has a nice nimble feeling to it and comes with a super sharp edge right out of the box.
HAP40 is fine-grained enough to sharpen very well and rates 65-66 on the Rockwell Hardness Test (HRC) even harder than the traditional carbon steels used for knives. Contrary to other HSS steels, it can be relatively easily sharpened on normal waterstones, if not quite as easily as traditional steels. Knives from this steel keep their sharpness 3 to 5 times longer than traditional knives. HAP40 is extremely tough, and so not as likely to chip along the edge as the steel used in traditional knives.

HAP40 is fine-grained enough to sharpen very well and can be hardened to 64-68 HRC, harder than the traditional carbon steels used for knives. Contrary to other HSS steels, it can be relatively easily sharpened on normal stones, if not quite as easily as traditional steels. It also polishes to a razor-sharp edge fairly easily, especially considering its hardness. It holds an edge better than almost anything else we sell. It is a semi-stainless alloy which is then clad in a full stainless steel outer layer, so it's also easy to care for.
There is something quite intriguing about the shape of a bunka. The combination of the reverse tanto-style tip and short, tall blade lend the knife a very purposeful look. These knives are gaining in popularity recently due to their do-it-all abilities. They are adept at cutting, slicing, and chopping, while the tip affords them the ability to take on smaller ingredients and get into tight spaces. They are a good choice for making garnishes and undertaking detail work of all kinds.
We have created the Kohetsu HAP40 Western line of knives for chefs of all kinds, be they amateur or professional. The blades are made from one of our very favorite steels, HAP40 powdered high-speed steel. This amazing alloy has been developed by Hitachi Metals and is especially liked by many makers of fine kitchen utensils.

The fine blade is ground with a symmetrical 50/50 bevel so it is perfect for both right- and left-handed users. The lovely satin finish on the stainless steel hagane is complemented by an attractive and comfortable mahogany handle. The HAP40 higane will eventually develop a nice patina which will further enhance the look of this handsome knife.
My knife is very light and the fit and finish are excellent. The blade height of only around 45mm doesn’t provide much room for knuckle clearance. It fits me just fine but it may bother some folks with very large hands.
The Kohetsu HAP40 gyuto measures 210mm along the edge. With its medium height, this makes for a comfortable, light, and easy to wield knife capable of tackling almost every ingredient. The knife is on the thin side of the scale but certainly no laser. It has a nice progressive grind which Mr. Tsukahara grinds more on the right side than the left and he feathers and thins out the tip for nice cutting performance that will work well for left and right handed users. I shot a video of him sharpening these knives that you can view at the bottom of this page.
The Hitachi made HSS steel core is clad in full stainless steel for added protection and strength. The exposed semi stainless edge will eventually take on a nice patina. A mahogany Western style handle is attached with a stainless bolster and three rivets.

It’s a fairly heavy knife,and quite stiff. I think I understand why Mark went with a western handle out of the gate - this is not a delicate knife. On the other hand it is very thin - thinner,I’m surprised to see,than my Moritaka 210 gyuto.
I think this would be great for anyone who wanted an all-purpose knife that doesn’t have to be babied,and that takes and keeps a super-sharp edge without having to be sharpened too frequently. Which is exactly what I wanted,and got!
The fourth knife in the new line of HAP40 knives by Kohetsu is this great looking 240mm gyuto. Its 50mm height places it about average compared to other 240mm gyutos, while its 2.5mm thick blade (at the heel) and 8.4oz weight are also typical for this type and style of knife. What’s not average is its performance, especially related to ease of edge maintenance. It has a nice progressive grind which Mr. Tsukahara grinds more on the right side than the left and he feathers and thins out the tip for nice cutting performance that will work well for left and right handed users.

If you seek a blade to keep on ticking after a shift-long licking then this outstanding kitchen knife just might be the answer to your needs. Finished with a mahogany Western style handle and stainless bolster, it looks good too! A CKTG exclusive.
The Kohetsu HAP40 Western Gyuto 270mm is the king of the hill in this line of exclusive to CKTG kitchen knives. It is a large knife fit for tackling the big cuts of protein and working through the sacks of vegetables that pro chefs are faced with on a daily basis. It requires a big cutting board and lots of counter space. But given those criteria, this blade will outperform any smaller chef style knives with ease and efficiency.
For all its length, the knife is not super tall at just 52.4mm. The profile is fairly flat all the way to the slim tip. It’s also quite thin…but no laser for sure. Because of its smaller dimensions relative to other 270mm gyutos it is a nimble and easy to handle knife. It is also easy to keep sharp and maintain given its fully stainless steel cladding over the core of HAP40 steel.
Coupled to a really comfortable Western style mahogany handle with stainless bolster and rivets, the knife looks and feels like the fine implement that it is. We thoroughly recommend you take a good look at this great line of kitchen knives, which combines great materials, good fit and finish, and professional feel. The Kohetsu HAP40 Western gyuto is an easy choice for chefs looking for a big knife at a less than big price.
The alloy used is for this lovely honesuki is HAP40. This semi-stainless steel is forged to a very hard 65 Rockwell. HAP40 is one of the hardest steels available for knife-making and it provides fantastic edge retention. It also polishes to a razor’s edge fairly easily, especially considering its hardness. It holds an edge better than almost anything else we sell. It is a semi-stainless alloy which is then clad in a full stainless steel outer layer, so it's also easy to care for.
This HAP40 Western Honesuki is a poultry boning knife. The shape is specific to that task: pointed tip, triangle shape, and fairly thick and robust. This example is double bevel as opposed to many others that are single bevel, and thus more difficult to sharpen. Do remember that they are boning knives and are not intended to cleave bones like a cleaver or deba.
The blade is coupled to a fine looking western style handle with scales made from rosewood and attached with 3 stainless rivets.

It really does fall through food. I would have given the knife five stars if I didn’t have to profile the blade.
I used my Angle Cube to do 10 degree / side bevel and used my stones all the way to Shapton Glass 16K,followed by stropping on balsa loaded with Ken’s .5 micron CBN and then roo leather loaded with .1 micron CBN. It is of course insanely sharp after going that far and thus far (having been a couple weeks of moderate home usage since the reprofiling and sharpening) the HAP40 steel really does seem to be holding such a keen edge very well. I’m also pleasantly surprised by how well food doesn’t stick to it - even very starchy russet potato slices have consistently stayed on the board instead of gluing themselves to the side of the knife.
It’s definitely a 5-star knife after the reprofiling but I’ll knock off one due to it needing that.
We have built this great-looking nakiri out of HAP40 semi-stainless steel. This alloy is made by Hitachi and is rich in tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium, and cobalt. Knives from this steel keep their sharpness 3 to 5 times longer than traditional blades. HAP40 is extremely tough, so it is fairly resistant to chipping along the edge. But despite this hardness and edge toughness, they are quite easy to sharpen on regular waterstones.
The Kohetsu HAP40 nakiri has a fine and understated look to the blade. It is enhanced by the attractive and ergonomic Western-style handle, which features mahogany scales and a stainless steel bolster.
The new HAP40 line from Kohetsu is a game changer. Never before have you been able to have a blade so tough, so sharp, and so easy to maintain at such an affordable price.

HAP40 is a semi-stainless, powdered high-speed steel (HSS) that takes and holds an edge better than any other steel available on our site. HAP40 is fine-grained enough to sharpen very well and rates 64-68 on the Rockwell Hardness Test (HRC)—even harder than the traditional carbon steels used for knives. We have specified hardness of 65-66 HRC for our blades. Unlike other HSS steels, they can be relatively easily sharpened on normal Waterstones, if not quite as quickly as traditional carbon steels. We think HAP40 holds the potential to become one of the best steels on the market for the production of high-quality, high-durability kitchen knives.
The finely ground blade of this lovely 120mm petty is welded to a stainless steel bolster, and a Western-style mahogany handle is attached with 3 stainless rivets.

This lovely mid-sized petty is a perfect all-around utensil for chefs of all types. It’s small enough for the most intricate work, like garnishes and hand-held peeling jobs, yet large enough for more general cutting and slicing purposes.
The slim and light blade measures just slightly under the advertised 150mm with a nice height of 29mm. It has a really well shaped tip and slightly rounded belly forward of the main cutting edge. While it sits on the thin side of the fence it is certainly no laser. It has a well executed progressive grind and is finished with a symmetrical 50/50 bevel.
HAP steel is made by Hitachi Metals and this core semi stainless steel is then clad in a fully stainless alloy for added protection and strength. The exposed HAP40 edge will eventually take on a nice patina. A comfortable mahogany Western style handle is attached to the nicely formed stainless bolster and tang with three rivets.

When it comes to shucking oysters, technique is king. But however good your skills are, a good knife is paramount for safety and efficiency.
We have looked high and low for a good knife that provides ease of use, comfort, and security in this task. Our search has taken us to Sakai City where we have commissioned a knife to fulfill these requirements.
The Kohetsu oyster knife is made from a durable and easy to maintain stainless steel. The blade shape is in the New Haven style which is wider and flatter than the Boston variety. The blade is coupled to a very well-made wood handle. The rounded smooth handle gives you a firm comfortable grip and good leverage. This handle will allow you to work longer into your session with less fatigue on your palm. The hand guard provides extra safety by keeping your hand from slipping forward and allows you to apply the additional pressure that may be needed to get into that shell.
If, like us, you are going to be opening a lot of oysters, you will be very glad you have this knife in your quiver of kitchen tools.
The construction of this fun and functional bunka employs the san-mai method of awase (cladding) where a welded softer outer layer of steel laminates the hardcore of the blade. This cladding is applied on both sides of the hagane (inner core), but not over the spine. In the case of our Shinano line the cladding is a stainless steel, making maintenance a lot easier than needed with a full carbon blade. The specified hardness of 62 Rockwell for the Aogami hagane results in a durable blade that is still resilient and easy to sharpen. The blade path is set high on the face and is given a great-looking matte finish which adds a contrast to the exposed inner core edge.
Bunka style knives are gaining in popularity in the west. Their compact dimensions, added blade height, and fine tanto style tip make for a very versatile cutter. They are customarily flatter than gyutos or santokus, so push cutters will be more impressed by the profile.
Our Kohetsu brand is expanding in many directions and the new Shinano line is another fine example of our ability to employ some of the best blacksmiths in Japan in the making of these exclusive blades.
We have specified Hitachi Blue #2 steel as the foundation for this line of knives. It exhibits superior edge retention while taking a more acutely ground edge than its White steel counterparts. The inner core alloy is hardened to 62 Rockwell and then encased in a softer stainless steel cladding. This add strength and added protection to the hagane (inner core) while making maintenance much easier than with full carbon blades.
The blade path has been given a great looking matte finish which contrasts beautifully with the exposed edge bevel. It has a symmetrical 50/50 grind which is particularly well executed. We have finished this with a lovely octagonal handle made from walnut.
Over the years we have assembled a comprehensive range of different knives utilizing various materials and techniques. We are very pleased to add to that list with our new line of Kohetso Shinano knives.
The Shinano brand knives are made using the ever popular Blue #2 steel. This is by far one of the most loved steels in the world of Japanese knives. It is a high carbon steel that is known for its superior edge retention and its ability to take a more acute edge than White steels. The core steel is hardened to 62 HRC. An outer layer of stainless steel is applied san-mai style to protect and strengthen the Blue #2 inner core. It also makes daily maintenance a lot easier. San-mai translates to “three flat things” and it refers to the construction technique used in the manufacture of the blade where two layers of a softer steel are used to encase the central core or “hagane.” The core steel is exposed at the blade edge and also in the spine when viewed from above.
The blade path has been given a great looking matte finish which contrasts beautifully with the hamon-look line, where the hagane is exposed at the edge bevel. It has a symmetrical 50/50 grind which is particularly well executed.
This 210mm gyuto is a bit over sized at 215mm and features a generous blade height of 48mm. It is about average in weight for this size blade at 6.2oz. We have finished this with a lovely walnut octagonal handle.
The core steel is hardened to 62 HRC. An outer layer of stainless steel is applied san-mai style to protect and strengthen the inner core. It also makes daily maintenance a lot easier than with iron clad blades. The blade face is given a lovely sand blasted matte finish which contrasts nicely with the polished cutting edge. It has a symmetrical 50/50 grind which is very nicely carried out.
The blade length is slightly over the advertised number, which, together with the average height, results in a comfortable sized knife for most applications and users. There is a flat spot toward the rear of the blade but it also features a nicely curved belly from just past the halfway point. This is not a lightweight. Rather it has a very solid, reassuring feel in the hand and on the board. This knife comes with a lovely walnut handle with black pakka wood ferrule.
All around, the Kohetsu Shinano Blue #2 Gyuto 240mm is a really well constructed and finished knife at a very competitive price.
Our “secret” blacksmith responsible for these blades uses a soft stainless steel to cover the Blue #2 core. The cladding is applied in the san-mai technique which involves covering both sides of the blade with the stainless steel but leaving the spine and cutting edge exposed. This lessens the maintenance requirement for a full carbon blade while increasing the strength of the inner core. The blade path of the knife is given a good-looking matte finish which contrasts with the horizontal polished upper blade road and cutting edge.
The Kohetsu Shinano blades are quite thick and substantial. They are stiff and possess a nice feel in the hand and on the board. The honesuki is a classic poultry processing knife. It is made with a pointed tip to get into joins and tight spaces. It is not intended to cleave through bones, however.
We supply this knife with one of our octagonal handles made from walnut wood.
Kohetsu Shinano knives are constructed from the popular high carbon Blue #2 steel. Arguably the most popular steel used for kitchen knives, Aogami 2 is a tough alloy that is easy to sharpen. The toughness does result in slightly lower wear resistance as compared to Aogami 1 steel, however, at the stated hardness of 62 HRC, this is hardly noticeable.
A soft outer layer of stainless steel is applied in the san-mai style which adds to the strength of the blade while protecting the hard core steel. The blade face is given a lovely matte finish in contrast to the polished cutting edge. Daily maintenance is reduced significantly by the use of this stainless steel jigane.
This is a standard kakugata style nakiri which is one of the best knives for cutting vegetables. It is ground with a symmetrical 50/50 edge bevel. Blade height is about average for this length of knife, as is the weight. The knife comes with a lovely octagonal walnut and black pakka wood handle.
The specified hardness of 62 Rockwell for the Aogami hagane results in a durable blade that is still resilient and easy to sharpen. The blade path is set high on the face and is given a great looking matte finish which adds a contrast to the exposed inner core edge. It has a symmetrical 50/50 grind which is particularly well executed. We have paired this knife to a lovely octagonal handle made from walnut and pakka wood (please note that the handle in the photos is current, but the handle in the video is the previous version and no longer available).
This is a classic tall petty in terms of length and blade height ratios, so it is the perfect choice for in-hand cutting and getting into tight spaces and around obstacles. It also works well as a garnish prep knife or herb chopper. The short blade adds rigidity and stiffness resulting in a quick easy to control implement.
The Kohetsu SLD Bunka is a fun and functional kitchen knife boasting great performance, a lovely aesthetic, and fine fit and finish. We start with a core of SLD tool steel which is hardened to 61-62 Rockwell. The hagane (inner core) is then covered with a layer of a soft fully stainless steel cladding. This enhances both the strength of the core and ease of maintenance. The inner core of SLD is a semi stainless steel and is regarded as a great alloy for both taking and holding a very keen edge.
The outer core, or jigane, is given a really unique lattice work hammer finish before it receives a final high shine polish. The result is a knife of great visual appeal.
Bunka knives are gaining in popularity in the west due to their compact dimensions and versatility. The relatively tall blade makes for good hand to board clearance. The flat profile is perfect for vegetable prep, especially for push cutters.The pointed tanto style tip is great for detail work and getting into tight places. It looks cool too!
The SLD core is wrapped in a stainless steel cladding. Since the core steel is very stain resistant and the cladding is stainless, discoloration is nonexistent during normal use. A very unique lattice work aesthetic with a polished finish adorns the knife.
We specified SLD semi-stainless tool steel as the core element due to its great edge taking and edge holding properties. Hardened to 61-62 HRC, the SLD core steel balances acute bevel taking with a high level of toughness to withstand the daily rigors of the busiest kitchens. The SLD core is wrapped in a stainless steel cladding. The laminate is given a great looking lattice pattern that is quite unique.
This is a knife for smaller hands, smaller cutting boards, or smaller spaces. However, it is anything but small in terms of its abilities. This is a big performer capable of tackling pretty much any normal kitchen cutting task. Most vegetables or proteins can be easily handled with a blade this size. In fact, the shorter and lighter size of this gyuto give it a quality that feels fast and nimble. We have recently upgraded the knife with new walnut octagonal handle with black pakka wood ferrule further enhancing its already great value.
A very unique lattice work aesthetic with a polished finish adorns the knife. Please note, the handle has been upgraded from the old one on the video to the new, nicer walnut octagonal handle shown in the photo with black pakka wood ferrule. It's a big upgrade in the look and feel of the knife. These are handcrafted knives so each one is unique and some variation should be expected.
Starting with a base of SLD tool steel, the inner core is then clad with a layer of soft stainless steel. This increases the strength of the hagane (inner core) and makes daily maintenance a breeze. The inner core of SLD is a semi stainless steel and is regarded as a great alloy for both taking and holding a very keen edge. It is hardened to 61-62 HRC. The jigane (outer layer) is given a really unique lattice work finish before getting a final high shine polish. The result is a knife of great visual appeal.
This is a well-proportioned knife with a generous height and lovely profile. It is the perfect size for processing almost any ingredient, but not too long to require an oversized work area. The well-executed profile is matched by a grind that is thin and of a high standard. A finely crafted walnut octagonal handle is mated to a black pakka wood ferrule which is comfortable and well balanced with the blade.

The SLD core steel is well regarded for taking an excellent edge easily and holding that edge well. The core is hardened to 61-62 HRC which balances acute edge taking with a high level of toughness. The knife is well crafted with a unique lattice work aesthetic and a polished finish. **The walnut handle is octagonal shaped with a black pakka wood ferrule newly updated as of 1-12-2017.

The design is classic sujihiki, but with a slight twist in that the tip has been cut straight from the spine to the point rather than with a curve, like a mini tanto. There is not much distal taper to the spine but it does thin out toward the tip in a very nice way. The blade is quite flat along most of the edge, but it develops into a nicely curved belly towards the tip. A finely crafted walnut octagonal handle is mated to a black pakka wood ferrule which is comfortable and well balanced with the blade.

Tsukahara-San adds a layer of cladding to either side of the core VG-10 in the form of a 33-layer damascus stainless steel. The lovely look of this cladding is enhanced by using an acid etched engraving technique.
This is about the smallest size that gyuto style knives are made. At just 180mm, it is part petty and part santoku—not just in dimensions but in abilities and feel. People who like a shorter blade will be intrigued by this knife as it serves so many purposes and is so adroit at those many tasks.
The handle on this series is a western design featuring scales that are crafted from black pakka wood, and attached to the tang with three stainless steel rivets.
We have our line of VG-10 knives made by the talented blacksmith, Tsukahara-San. He tempers the steel to a hardness of 60 HRC and then adds a cladding of stainless damascus using a san-mai construction. The lovely damascus pattern is obtained by using an etched engraving technique. The fine looking kanji script is etched for durability. This results in a great looking blade that is easy to maintain and care for.
The gyuto featured here measures 210mm along the edge which falls on the shorter side of the scale for this style of knife. It is thus a very good choice for smaller hands or tight spaces. Due to its compact dimensions, it is also very nimble and easy to maneuver.

At 135mm, this is a medium length blade with big aspirations as a versatile cutting tool around the kitchen. Board cutting and hand held processes are both within the scope of this blade, along with the ability to take on garnishes and artistic style cutting needs. This is a stout and rigid knife that flies though herbs and other small items with ease. The nicely finished black pakka wood handle feels good in the hand and will withstand the rigors of daily kitchen use.

This is a knife that will go places many others will not. It is also super nimble and very controllable. The stiff little blade sharpens up like a razor, so making those intricate garnishes and cuts will become a thing of pleasure and control. We just love this little utensil from the way it works to the way it looks.
The most notable design feature of the blade is its geometry, which incorporates a sheep’s foot-shaped tip. The design draws the spine down to the front, with very little clearance above the horizontal cutting plane when the blade is resting naturally from heel to forward cutting edge. This is a great choice for push cutting style users.
We specify VG-10 as the core steel in these “Made for CKTG” blades. It is by far the most used stainless steel in the industry.

Our overriding aim was to offer a blade of typical Japanese look and feel with a Western-style handle for those preferring this type of grip, and to do so at an affordable price. In the case of these blades we believe we have met that goal. Combined with a really unique hammered tsuchime finish, which resembles a mottled rather than actual hammered appearance, these fine kitchen knives bring a bit of bling and a lot of performance to your knife arsenal. They feature a well-made and balanced black pakka wood handle with a stainless bolster. Great performance and great looks, all at a great price!
One of the most important factors we look at in building a knife, regardless of what style, is geometry. Geometry translates to how thick or thin the knife is and if there is any distal taper in the blade. Distal taper is where a knife starts out thick at the heel and gets thinner towards the tip. We believe the geometry built into this line of knives is quite notable especially given the price point. They handle very well, nimble and quick. They are nicely weighted and have a good balance point for most users regardless of the style of cutting employed.
The lovely mottled tsuchime finish is enhanced with the addition of a well-made black pakka wood Western-style handle and stainless steel bolster. This is perfect knife for any chef starting off in the world of Japanese cutlery or for those cooks needing a precision implement at a very affordable price.
VG-5 is a sub group of the V Gold line of stainless steels. It is a similar steel to the ubiquitous VG-10 with a slightly larger grain structure which is the result of a higher vanadium content. VG-10 also contains cobalt, which is absent from VG-5. It is a rugged steel, able to take a nice edge and hold it through a long session at the chopping board. It is a relatively easy steel to sharpen as compared to most other stainless alloys available.
This lovely gyuto is a long knife, measuring in at 270mm. This is about the biggest size in which these popular chef knives are available. As such, it needs a suitably sized cutting space to be utilized correctly. But when place and circumstance are in line, this beauty will cut, slice, and dice its way through pretty well any ingredients with a speed and efficiency only a blade of this size can manage.
A really well made black pakka wood Western-style handle and stainless steel bolster complete the package.
Nakiris are becoming a popular choice in many Western kitchens of late. Their compact size and interesting profile have found a new legion of users in both professional and home environments.

This nakiri will amaze you with its ability to fall through the hardest ingredients.
This nakiri features a well-made and -balanced black pakka wood handle with a stainless bolster. Great performance and great looks, all at a great price!
The stainless steel used in the Kohetsu Tsuchime knives is VG-5, which is listed at a hardness of 60. While hardness is only one of the factors when buying a knife, it is helpful to know. In terms of VG-5, 60 HRC is about as hard as this steel is normally taken. It is a tough steel, capable of taking a very nice edge and holding it through a long day at the chopping board. It is also a fairly easy stainless steel to sharpen as compared to other stainless alloys out there.
This is a short blade with big aspirations as a versatile cutting tool around the kitchen.

This is an excellent choice for a cook who wants to enter the world of Japanese cutlery or for an established chef looking for a finely crafted precision instrument at a very competitive price.
VG-5 is a refined stainless steel with unique properties. It is not mass produced like some stainless steels and fits a specific niche, where pure steels with exacting alloys are necessary. It is similar to VG-10, aside from a slightly larger grain structure due to there being more vanadium than in its sibling. The blade is forged to a hardness of 60HRC, which is at the top end of this steel’s range. It is an alloy that takes a nice edge and holds it through prolonged use. The inner core of VG-5 is clad with a softer stainless steel layer which receives a very nice pebble hammered finish known as tsuchime.
The 80mm petty is a perfect knife for small tasks like hand paring and making intricate garnishes. It has a well-made black pakka wood handle which is attached to the blade with 3 stainless steel rivets. Both handle and bolster are nicely executed and add to the look and feel of this very well priced and useful kitchen knife.
The santoku knife is a really great all-around kitchen blade. It has a deft feel and tall blade which endow the knife with a great deal of versatility in its cutting capabilities. Santoku translates to three virtues and the acts of slicing, chopping, and dicing are tackled with aplomb by this classic design. Many western chefs and home cooks look to the santoku as their go-to blade for most cutting tasks.
These are not only fun to use knives but they are easy to maintain too. The inner stainless core VG-5 is clad with a great looking outer layer of soft stainless steel that receives a really unique hammered tsuchime finish. This makes daily maintenance a breeze and adds to the great overall appeal of this well priced and well-built knife.
VG-5 is a subgroup of the V Gold line of stainless steel. It is similar steel to the ubiquitous VG-10 with a slightly larger grain structure, which is the result of a higher vanadium content.

The original Fujiyama sharpener recently took some time off, which caused a break in production. The new sharpener is now up to speed and Fujiyamas are once again in stock, albeit briefly! The first wave of new knives bears the FM nomenclature to differentiate them from older varieties and some one-off specials that occasionally pop up.
The knife featured here is one of the latest iterations of the new variety, in that it bears some lovely hand-engraved kanji elements made by master engraver Mr. Kawamura. Otherwise, this is pure Fujiyama fare. From the stunning polishing and grinds to the extraordinary fit and finish, these blades are heirlooms in every regard.

It’s a laser, so it is ultra-thin. But it is still a rigid and responsive knife. The grind is slightly convex and it manifests this in an ability to make food molecules part before it!
This kiritsuke version of the classic HD gyuto is a rare beast and in many circles a most desirable one. The obvious physical difference is the kiritsuke tip. It makes for a more blade-forward balance while enhancing its cutting capabilities, especially with more intricate food preparations. It looks super cool too!
The most pronounced difference, however, is a profile for more flat than the standard gyuto. There is almost twice as much flat area and it is this difference that sets the kiritsuke apart and makes it a favorite for many users.
This knife is given extra value in that it features a Khii ebony handle. This is another example of the Konosuke devotion to quality. It is perfectly sized and weighted to balance the blade in feel, heft, and aesthetics. This is a great knife made greater with the addition of the beautiful handle. Please note that Konosuke gaps the handle and exposes the shoulders of the machi. This is called Tokyo Style and is intentional.
Thanks for all the help guys. After months of research,I pushed the button. I called just to ask a few questions and Mark was great. Ordered on Friday,came in on Monday (that was free shipping too). I didn’t know that I was ordering a 210mm razor blade. There is no need to further describe how sharp this knife is and how well it cuts. If you have one,you know. If you don’t...,push the button. For anyone trying with this in your choice list,buy it. I dropped a tomato on it from about a foot up...warm butter. I am push cutting without even thinking about it,never would have even tried that before. I felt so bad about it’s blade hitting my regular wooden cutting board,I ordered a 20x15x3.5 inch end grain board. A beautiful knife like this should never touch anything else.
Now.... wa petty anyone? :D
The 210mm gyuto is, hands down, the most popular knife among home cooks. It is the perfectly sized blade for use in the home kitchen where cutting board real estate is at a premium. It also has a lightness and nimble feel to it that allows for its use in all kinds of cutting, slicing, and chopping scenarios.
Konosuke is one of our most popular manufacturers and the HD line is one of our biggest selling single lines. The HDs have the same dimensions as the knives in their White #2 line but utilize an exclusive semi-stainless steel which brings an ease of maintenance and edge retention to the equation.
The HD steel is heat-treated to a hardness of 61 Rockwell, which results in an easy-to-sharpen edge with an ability to maintain that edge even after the longest work session. This fine blade is attached to a beautifully finished ho wood handle with water buffalo ferrule.
Because this knife is 220mm it is too long for all of our 210mm gyuto sayas. Please choose the 8" blade guard instead.

The handle fits your hand great,the knife is super light,super thin,and super sharp OOTB. Only needed to be stropped. It holds its edge better than most stainless knives I’ve used but gets much sharper. I’ve heard things about these knives; now I see what all the fuss is about!
First off,its fit and finish are impeccable. I tried to pec,but it’s got an evenly finished blade with completely eased choil and spine,a decent factory edge,and a great handle with waterbuffalo ferrules on both ends.
Second,this blade is thin. Thinned mine out more after a few uses,but it was waifer-thin right out of the box. Thin enough to be a laser or razor and make you hoot so loud you might get shot with a taser.
Third,and this ties in with the knife being thin,is it’s light. Whether you call it 4.7 ounces or 133.4 grams,you will not be calling it heavy. Love the way it seemingly floats from my knifeblock to my hand. Don’t love that I cackle maniacly when it happens - you’re making it too easy for my to be creepy when using your knives,Mr. Kosuke.
Fourth - its steel is some sort of high-end alloy built. When first sharpening it feels weird (words fail to describe - I’ve heard been described as similar to sharpening glass or carbon steel,but both descriptions fall short),but it’ll take an incredible edge with minimal stones (you don’t need the most or even second most expensive stones you can afford).
The sum of these four points is a knife that is an unbridled pleasure to use on meats,veggies,and fruits that is perfect out of the box and perfecter when its owner adds his or her embellishments to its edge.
That Mark & Susan ship it really fast and allow the purchaser to choose whether or not a saya is needed (if you travel with the blade,a saya is a great idea,but if you know you explode like Dr. Frankenstein every time you use the knife and decide it should only be in one kitchen,a saya is overkill).
The subtly convex blade of the Konosuke HD Gyuto is a thing of simple beauty. Its elegant curvature enhances its performance and aesthetics. With a gentle stroke, it glides through a soft tomato or any other produce, leaving you truly amazed.
Not only is it an iconic blade, but it's also impressively thin, delivering unparalleled performance while being easy to maintain. This is a knife that demands your attention and must be experienced firsthand.
Please note that Konosuke gaps the handle and exposes the shoulders of the machi. This is called Tokyo Style and is intentional. See photo 4 for a look at this.
The ultra-thin grind is pretty much unlike any other we know. This knife falls through produce. It is light yet stiff and responsive. The term razor sharp is given true meaning with the out-of-the-box edge. It is a knife that is all about subtleties and simplicity. The subtly convex blade is a thing of simple beauty. Slice into a soft tomato or other produce, and be prepared to be amazed. Elegance in design and function.
Made from HD semi-stainless steel, the Konosuke HD2 Gyuto is easier to care for than other equivalents made from high-carbon steel. It will patina over time, or you can keep it polished!
This knife is given extra value because it features a Khii Laurel handle. This is another example of Konosuke's devotion to quality. It is perfectly sized and weighted to balance the blade in feel, heft, and aesthetics. This is a great knife made greater with the addition of the beautiful handle.
The Hd2 Nakiri you see here is a popular knife among home cooks. It is the perfectly sized blade for use in the home kitchen where cutting board real estate is at a premium. It also has a lightness and nimble feel to it that allows for it’s use in all kinds of cutting, slicing and chopping scenarios. The HD steel is heat treated to a hardness of 61 Rockwell, which results in an easy to sharpen edge, with an ability to maintain that edge even after the longest work session. This fine blade is attached to a beautifully finished Ho wood handle with Water Buffalo ferrule. They also put a traditional Tokyo Style gap between the blade and the ferrule, which you can see in the photos. It's not by accident that they expose that small gap in the machi. It's traditional back when they only burned the handle into place. Please see the photos.

The blade is a mono-steel construction using HD2, semi-stainless steel. The heat treatment on the blade is in the range of 61 HRC. As mentioned the grinds and geometry on this knife are designed for high performance, and boy does it deliver! This knife is not only thin at the spine, but it is insanely thin behind the edge. Couple the thinness of the blade with the steel's ability to take and hold a rather acute sharpening angle, and you are in for a real treat!
The handle is their very nice, ho wood octagonal with buffalo horn ferrule.

The handle is made of ebony and laurel in a slim, octagonal shape. Please note that Kosuke likes to install the handles with a small gap in the machi and it's intentional and it's called Tokyo Style.

SKD steel has a fine structure and good distribution of the elements, which in turn makes it possible to add more alloy elements than in other stainless steels. The result is an increase in hardness and a more impressive cutting characteristic. SKD steel is slightly harder than SG2 steel but because of the lower chrome content, it is less rust-resistant too. Combine this great alloy with an outer stainless jigane that has been treated to a wonderful tsuchime kurouchi finish and you have a knife that will last for generations and looks as good as it did out of the box!
We cannot over-emphasize the outstanding levels of fit and finish that are displayed here. The grinds and profile are perfect. The finish of the spine, choil, and neck are about as good as they come. The Khii chestnut handle is a wonder to look at and hold.

Some knives have an aesthetic appeal that sets them apart from the usual run-of-the-mill blades. Some have a feel and character that earns them the reputation of being something extra special. The Konosuke SKD Tsuchime Gyuto is that kind of a knife. It ticks all of the Konosuke boxes with regard to quality of construction, design, and aesthetics.
The blade is made from SKD semi stainless steel which is often thought of as a stainless version of a carbon steel because of its feel and ability to take an edge. The edge of this blade is symmetrically ground and is as good as any grind gets!
One of the most outstanding aesthetic qualities of the blade is the hammered face, featuring a wonderful grey colored kurouchi finish. This is quite simply one of the most beautiful knives we sell. Add the classic burnt chestnut handle and you have a true masterpiece of design construction and purpose!
The SKD Gyuto 240mm is a stellar all-around chef knife. It is made from SKD stainless steel, hardened to about 62 Rockwell. It is a san-mai construction with a core that is fully stainless wrapped in another stainless steel for protection and shock resistance. Daily maintenance is reduced considerably over carbon steel knives.
This is the longest knife in the SKD range and it is a perfect tool for chefs who like larger knives for the increased productivity they afford. Usually Konosuke overstates their edge length as is the norm for Sakai knives. But this is made in Sanjo City, where they understate lengths. But don’t let the size dissuade you if you are a home chef and like large knives. This actual edge length on this knife is 245mm and it has the nimble feel of a smaller blade.
This particular example is fitted with a D-shaped ho wood handle with buffalo horn ferrule. We also have other handle types available.
While there are makers that can equal Konosuke’s remarkable levels of fit and finish, there are none in our experience that beat it. Konosuke are the brand that many aspire to emulate.
In a slight twist to the norm, the new SKD line of knives are made in Sanjo City to Konosuke’s exacting standards. These are some of the most stunning knives to look at and hold. Balance, fit and finish, and aesthetic appeal are top of the tree. The knife features a stunning hammered face and light grey kurouchi finish, which is so unusual in itself. This is quite simply one of the most beautiful knives we sell. Fit and finish are world class. Pure Konosuke! The blade is quite stiff and it features some lovely hand chiseled kanji characters. The finish of the spine, choil, and neck are about as good as they come, and the ebony octagonal handle is one of the nicest being produced right now.

The edge is symmetrically ground and is as good as any grind gets! The blade has a fairly thin spine with a perfect distal taper, that reduces down to the most fabulously thin tip. Blade height is almost 47mm, which offers average finger-to-board clearance. The profile is fairly slim, with an almost imperceptible gentle curve in the belly.

This particular blade is coupled to a classic Khii Studio Laurel handle. The balance is just forward of the pinch grip point.
Boasting a core of semi stainless SKD steel, these blades are a hammer forged san-mai constructions with a stainless steel cladding. The core steel is hardened to a fairly high 62 HRC. The cladding is treated to a beautiful kurouchi tsuchime finish which is artfully applied and feathered into the sublime satin lower blade road. This in turn reveals the inner core steel which is polished to a high luster.
The blade length is slightly over the advertised number, which is unusual for a Sanjo-made knife, and the height is well proportioned, coming in at 47mm. Grinds and edge geometry are typical Konosuke: first class! The knife has a good overall balance which is aided by the classic octagonal ho wood and buffalo horn handle.

"Sumiiro" means “the color of India ink,” as is seen in Japanese hand-painted calligraphy.
"Sumiiro" means “the color of India ink,” as is seen in Japanese hand-painted calligraphy.
The finish is stunning with a beautiful kurouchi nashiji finish. This handsome finish looks great without much of the maintenance a soft-iron-cladding finish can demand. "Sumiiro" means “the color of India ink,” as is seen in Japanese hand-painted calligraphy.
The ‘SUMIIRO’ has a core of SLD, hardened up to 65 HRC, and is clad in Stainless steel. The toughness of Nihei’s forging, combined with this cladding results in an excellent ‘all-rounder’ of a blade; the edge can stand up to the rigors of a Professional kitchen, while the lack of reactivity can give you peace-of-mind that you don’t need to be wiping down the blade constantly. For the surface of the blade, Nihei went with a beautiful Kurouchi Nashiji. This rustic finish is a specialty passed down by his Master, which Nihei san worked hard to learn during his time apprenticing. Combined with the resiliency of the stainless cladding, this handsome finish looks great without much of the maintenance a soft-iron-cladding finish can demand.
Once this project had been finalized, and we could see the completed knife, we asked Nihei san what he would like to call it. After some thinking, he decided on the word ‘SUMIIRO’. The word ‘Sumiiro’ means “the color of India ink”, as is seen in Japanese hand-painted calligraphy.
So this is the Konosuke Madei ‘Sumiiro’. An SLD Kurouchi Nashiji gyuto, forged and sharpened by the very talented Nihei. We hope you will give us your honest impression!
The finish is stunning with a beautiful Kurouchi Nashiji finish. This handsome finish looks great without much of the maintenance a soft-iron-cladding finish can demand. ‘SUMIIRO’ means “the color of India ink”, as is seen in Japanese hand-painted calligraphy.
The Kurouchi Nashiji finish is a visual delight, adding to the blade's overall appeal. With its attractive appearance, it requires less maintenance than blades with a soft-iron-cladding finish. SUMIIRO's name derives from "the color of India ink," as evident in Japanese hand-painted calligraphy.

The GS line of lasers has been in production for several years and has recently seen an upgrade to the current “plus” status. The GS+ line focuses on details we feel make a difference not only in the day-to-day use and performance of the knife, but also in the life of the blade. Improvements include a raised HRC to 61-62, smoother grinds, and even better fit and finish.
Togatta means pointed in Japanese and this name is aptly used in conjunction with this classic French profile blade. The knife is almost a cross between a sujihiki and a gyuto, and as such can perform many cutting and slicing tasks around the kitchen. It is, of course, a true laser, boasting a thin 2.2mm spine at the heel and a behind-the-edge grind that is quite extraordinary.
The handle we have chosen for this particular variety echoes the basics of this blade perfectly. It is beautifully made of ebony and laurel in a slim, octagonal shape—a fitting addition to an already great item. The felt protector fits better than a saya on this model.
We asked Konosuke to give us their rendition of the classic French profile. Togatta means “pointed”. This is their answer to that request. And we think they nailed it! The classic long, thin blade is akin to a cross between a sujihiki and a gyuto, and as such can perform many cutting and slicing tasks around the kitchen. It is a true laser, boasting a thin 2.2mm spine at the heel and a behind-the-edge grind that will split atoms. It has an edge profile that is more rocker than pusher but it will find favor with both styles of users. The tip, in particular, is a formidable kitchen weapon.
Coupled to a beautiful ho wood handle and buffalo horn ferrule, this fine knife would be a wonderful addition to your knife arsenal. Sleek, sharp, and made to the highest standards, the Konosuke KS GS+ Gyuto is destined to become a classic in its own right. The felt protector is a better fit than a saya. The handle and blade have a small machi (gap) that is nicknamed Tokyo Style.
This blade is constructed from Aogami blue #2 steel with a stainless cladding. The handsome san mai laminated blade construction is used to add corrosion resistance while maintaining strength and durability. A stunning hammered and etched nashiji finish applied above the shinogi adds a real touch of class to this fine implement. The exposed blue #2 carbon core will develop a patina which enhances the beauty of this knife while adding a degree of rust resistance.
The blade has a symmetrical primary grind which transitions into a secondary bevel or cutting edge, which is ground 70/30. But fear not, this is a knife good for both right and left handers. It cuts with a clean and precise action suitable to both rockers and push/pullers alike.
The Kotetsu Nashiji knives are constructed with a core of the very popular Aogami blue #2 steel. This is then clad with a layer of stainless steel with a nashiji (pear skin) finish. Ease of maintenance is thus enhanced. Aesthetically these knives compete with far more expensive blades.
The black pakka wood yo handle is attached to the blade with 3 stainless rivets and a lovely angled stainless bolster.
We are very excited by this new line of knives which represent a really great value and a perfect pathway into the world of Japanese knives.
A finely crafted pakka wood Western style handle is attached to the full tang with 3 stainless steel rivets. A lovely angled stainless bolster completes the picture.
The 135mm petty knife is a true all-around blade for many kitchen tasks. It is small enough for intricate work yet long enough for slicing and chopping most medium sized ingredients. It is a light/medium weight blade with a good symmetrical grind which offers up clean and precise cuts.
This is undoubtedly a high value item and a great introduction to Japanese blades for those used to traditional Western knives.
The Kotetsu santoku is is a great example of this useful blade. The Aogami blue #2 core steel is a very popular carbon material. Blue steel #2 has the same carbon content as white steel #2, with additional elements chromium and tungsten. With these additional ingredients, blue steel #2 blades often display better edge retention and durability.
The outer stainless steel cladding aids in rust prevention and general maintenance. The subtle hammered finish above the shinogi and the beautiful sandblasted nashiji give this blade a look and feel normally associated with knives costing considerably more money.
A fine black pakka wood handle with stainless bolster completes the package and adds up to a knife worthy of any kitchen, professional chef, or home cook.
The knife is made with Blue #2 Carbon steel on the edge and is stainless clad. Please wipe your knife dry after use to keep it in tip top condition. This is an excellent introduction to Japanese knives at an affordable price. You'll be amazed at how well these knives cut!

His abilities with a wide variety of steels and finishes are quite amazing and it seems like every year he adds yet another steel or technique to his already bulging portfolio. As with his other knife lines, the specifications of the Kurosaki Fujin AS Sujihiki is about average for blades of this size. The overall profile is quite thin, especially behind the edge, it is slightly tall, and of average weight. However, there is nothing average about its performance or looks!
One glance at the choil shot tells you everything you need to know about how this stunner will perform. The grind is something to behold. Now add to that artistry one of the most unique looking blade finishes we have ever seen, and you end up with a collectible piece of functional art for your kitchen.
Yu Kurosaki has done it again. The driving rain look of the Fujin is arguably his most unique and finest finish yet. We are so very pleased to be able to offer these gorgeous knives to our customers.
Master blacksmith Kurosaki is well respected for his abilities in forging and grinding some of the best knives we sell. His profiles, edge geometry, and fit and finish are everything you would wish for in a high end knife. Kurosaki excels in creating knives that are truly athletic in character and perform equally as well cutting hard, dense produce as they do gliding through onions. Much of this is due to how thin his knives get behind the edge and the wonderful convex grind on the blade, which becomes nearly imperceptible towards the tip.
The knife featured here is made with SG2 stainless steel which is hardened to about 63 HRC and then clad with a softer stainless steel. Yu Kurosaki is famous for his tsuchime finishes and the driving rain look of the Fujin is arguably his most unique and finest yet.

The Kurosaki Raijin Bunka 165mm conforms to most of the bunka norms until you look at the construction and finish. There is little normal here!
Raijin knives feature a secret Cobalt stainless steel that is clad in a softer stainless alloy. The san-mai style cladding receives an amazing pattern named after after Raijin, the god of thunder. And with the driving rain look of the face pattern one can appreciate the reason.
We are huge admirers of Yu Kurosaki’s work. For such a young smith he has a long story. He makes knives for several leading brands while building his own named brand into a future powerhouse. His designs and unique finishes have set him apart from many of his contemporaries, while his energetic personality and beaming smile make him a personal favorite among many Japanese knife lovers.
We have a very strong relationship with blacksmith Yu Kurosaki. He is the brother of Makoto Kurosaki, another of our favorite blacksmiths! In 2002 Yu Kurosaki began work as a smith with the Kanehiro Uchi Hamono and, along with his brother, trained under famed blacksmith Hiroshi Kato. He is kept incredibly busy making knives for several different brands including Masakage and this, his own brand of Kurosaki knives.
The Kurosaki Raijin Gyuto 180 is a relatively thin and light knife. It has a standard style profile and average proportions for a gyuto of this size. The blade height of just over 43mm is pretty standard fare, as is the classic blunt nose and rounded tip. There is a slight belly which will allow for some rocking.
The knives in this line feature nicely polished spines and choils with very good out of the box edges. As with all of his knives, the Kurosaki Raijin 180 Gyuto has excellent grinds. The rosewood handle has an octagonal shape for universal use, while the balance point is perfectly placed for a good pinch grip.
Every Raijin knife has a slightly different pattern and features some well-executed laser-etched kanji characters.
This great looking 210mm gyuto performs extremely well. It has a wonderful thin spine with a lovely distal taper towards the tip, making it a tremendous performer through ingredients like onions. The great grind on the knife also allow it to plow through even the densest of produce without any wedging or sticking whatsoever.
Like all of Yu Kurosaki’s knives, it has stellar fit and finish along with a beautifully rounded spine and choil. The handle install is well done and the size and shape make it a perfect match for most users.
The Raijin line of knives are made with a secret Cobalt stainless steel that is clad in a slightly softer stainless alloy, in the san-mai style. This cladding receives the latest pattern in his canon which is named after the god of thunder, and with the driving rain look of the face it is aptly named.
Named after the Japanese god of thunder, the Kurosaki Raijin features one of Kurosaki-san’s unique and visually stunning patterns. The driving rain look of the blade face is a perfect match for the name!
Many of Kurosaki’s knife lines are made from some kind of stainless steel and the Raijin is no exception. We are unable to tell you exactly what the steel is, as it is a proprietary mix that is somewhat similar to VG10 on steroids. The steel has a very fine grain which aids in the ability to take a super sharp edge while being fairly easy to sharpen.
Superb grinds are a signature of this fine smith’s work and he has not disappointed in this instance. Out of the box edge is pretty great too. The blade is mated to a really well-made octagonal handle made from rosewood and black pakka.
The edge profile has a nice general shape that will allow for rocking as well as the other styles of cutting. The fully stainless steel construction will make maintenance as easy as it gets even in a busy kitchen environment. But the aesthetics are what gets people first, and in his true fashion Yu Kurosaki has once again hit it out of the park!

The santoku featured here is easy to handle and requires less board cutting space. It’s a fairly standard blade in terms of dimensions: 165mm in length with a blade height of 47mm places it squarely in the middle of popular santoku sizes. These are versatile blades that find favor in many home and professional environments. Their shorter length makes them quite light in weight and nicely thin at the spine. It thins out at the end for enhanced intricate cutting abilities. Like most santoku knives, it has a well-shaped belly that make rocking style cuts a breeze. The double symmetrical bevel is practical for left- and right-handed users.
Another stunner from the forge of Yu Kurosaki! We invite you to enjoy his wonderful creations.

Once you try this knife you will have a hard time picking up another. It's a great example of the craftsmanship this up-and-coming artisan is producing.
We have a high regard for young blacksmith Yu Kurosaki. He is the brother of Makoto Kurosaki, another of our favorites! Kurosaki-san started work as a smith with Kanehiro Uchi Hamono in 2002 and, along with his brother, trained under famed blacksmith Hiroshi Kato. He is kept incredibly busy making knives for several different brands including Masakage and his own brand of Kurosaki knives.
Kurosaki-san constructs this small gyuto using the very popular R2 stainless steel. R2 is a powdered steel that is fully stainless and possesses great edge retention. This is a good choice for those wishing to avoid the careful maintenance required by high carbon alloy knives. The unique and very attractive stainless cladding sparkles in the light, while the textured finish releases food in an almost magical way. Kurosaki-san gives the blade a beautifully realized convex grind, so ingredient separation is first rate.
This gyuto has a shorter than normal blade that will appeal to those with smaller hands or work areas. It is a really versatile knife that can do almost anything asked of it. The striking looks of the blade are complemented by a lovely traditional octagonal rosewood wa handle.
The 210mm gyuto is a masterpiece of fit, finish, and function. The grind on this blade is as good as it gets and you won't find many nicer out of the box edges. They are scary sharp...and that's not an exaggeration. Obviously, maintenance is kept to a minimum as the knife is fully stainless. The profile is quite flat in the belly with a nice gentle curve up to the very finely crafted tip. Weight is on the light side of the scale and blade thickness is around the average for this size of knife.
The knife comes with a very nice octagonal rosewood handle.
Here is the 240mm gyuto version of this impressive line from Kurosaki-san. This gyuto has a really nice profile with grinds that are outstanding and super sharp edges out of the box. R2 is a powdered steel that is fully stainless and has great edge retention. These steels are made with very unusual processes (powder metallurgy), and they have an extremely rich chemical composition resulting in some unique and desirable characteristics for knives.
As with his other gyutos, the specifications of the Kurosaki R2 Wa-Gyuto 240mm fall in the middle of blades its size. They are quite thin, especially behind the edge, slightly tall, and of average weight. There is nothing average about its performance or looks, however.

The stunning looks of the Kurosaki R2 Nakiri are only bested by its performance. Kurosaki-san and his brother have used R2 stainless steel as the core steel which they then cover, san-mai style, with stainless steel cladding. The core steel is hardened to 62 HRC. The distinctive way in which they finish these knives is not for looks alone. The unique and very attractive cladding shimmers in the light as it releases food in an almost magical way. As always, the convex grind on these knives is outstanding and ingredient separation is as good as it gets. Out of the box sharpness is right up with the very best knives we carry.
The striking looks of the blade are complemented by a lovely traditional octagonal rosewood wa handle. Fine balance, stunning looks, and outstanding performance are the hallmarks for this great knife line. We strongly recommend that you try one.

Kurosaki-san makes this particular knife out of the very popular R2 stainless steel. R2 is a powdered steel that is fully stainless and has great edge retention. This is a good choice for those wishing to avoid the careful maintenance required by high carbon alloy knives. These steels are made with very unusual processes (powder metallurgy), and they have an extremely rich chemical composition resulting in some unique and desirable characteristics for kitchen blades. This particular sujihiki has a really nice profile with grinds that are outstanding and super sharp edges out of the box.
The blade comes with a stunning hammered, or tsuchime, finish. The striking looks of the blade are complemented by a lovely traditional octagonal rosewood wa handle.
In keeping with his style, Kurosaki crafts his knives with a keen eye towards ingredient separation and non-stick properties. The knives will be able to achieve absurd levels of sharpness and acute blade angles, exhibit superior edge retention and perform incredibly well through most ingredients.

The Bird’s Beak Paring knife is the perfect tool for in-the-hand paring work. The pronounced curved edge makes it easy and very efficient to work with round fruits and vegetables, while the pointed tip can serve well when coring or removing eyes and other imperfections.
Keeps my knives scary sharp between stone sharpening,and does it’s job.
Well built and worth every penny.
I recently acquired a Tojiro DP Gyuto and the MAC Black Ceramic Honing Rod.
Decided to put the honing rod to the ultimate test on an old,questionably sharp santoku from the local housewares store.
After completing the requisite ’before’ test,I gave the old knife seven passes over the grooved side of the rod. The ’after’ test results were incredible.I spent the next several minutes turning several pages of the new phone book into a pile of yellow shredded paper.
The mind reels at what the test would have yielded if the knife had a proper edge.
The diameter of the rod is too thick to fit in the honing steel slot in my Sur La Table knife block.
It’s a great piece but if you want to store it in a block measure it first.
The knife is 135mm in length and works well as a small utility knife, steak knife, or large paring knife. It has very comfortable handle and an overall fit and finish that totally belie its price. It is a true all-around blade for many kitchen tasks. It is small enough for intricate work yet long enough for slicing and chopping most medium sized ingredients. It is a light/medium weight blade with a good symmetrical grind which offers up clean and precise cuts. This is undoubtedly a high value item and a great introduction to Japanese blades for those used to traditional Western knives.
It was not particularly sharp out of the box but some work the the EdgePro gave it a very nice edge.
Retains an excellent 15 degree edge but not a 10 degree.
So,I was looking for a knife to replace my German filet knife. Had my eye on this MAC Filet for years but had a hard time justifying the cost $145 new but can be had just about everywhere for $120. I didn’t understand why cost so much more than other MAC blades in similar length. Until It arrived. First of all,the knife is very substantial. Significantly larger handle than their petty knives but what is more unique is the blade. It’s impossibly thin. It’s flexible but not flimsy. Balance at the bolster with a pinch grip right on. Definitely inspires confidence. I’ve never seen a profile quite like this either,leads me to believe that it could also be used as a short-slicing knife. They way that it sails through tomatoes with just a little puts a smile on your face. As I said,I love all of my knives but since little is written about this 7” Filet,I wanted to let everyone know this knife rules. Mark sent the knife out same day,free shipping and it arrived one day early. The thing I like about dealing with Chef Knives To Go is that Mark offer an unbiased opinion and stands behind his products.
I think of it as a great compromise between the German classics and the Japanese blades. The blade profile is somewhere between the shallowness of the gyuto and the stout rock ability of the Germans. It is slightly lighter than something like a Henckels but retains some of the heft that German knife users might have come to like. Its western handle is very comfortable but it eliminates the heavy bolster found on older German knives.
I would wholeheartedly recommend this knife as a smooth transition from "house knives" or Germans into the world of Japanese cutlery. You’ll continue using it even after you’ve become obsessed and have started to buy custom Japanese show-off pieces.
The Blade is super thin and good geometry with a bit of curve(good to rock) and flex(not crazy flex,but coupled with its lightweight,enough to make it real nimble)... The steel is not the hardest out there,but it will hold an edge for awhile... the mac pro sharpens better and easier than any knife in my collection.
Meanwhile,the handle and overall fit and finish are great. This knife does real work in the hand and feels really good doing it.
At this price point,I would buy this knife with no hesitation.
Good thing is it is very stain resistant.
The Shun is superior to this in all ways but the stain-resistance. Total let down for me,since I love the MAC Pro 9.5" Chef’s knife and the Superior Bread Knife so much. (both of which get 5 stars in my book)
I will give one or more for holiday gifts this year. It is a joy to use.
Great service from Chefsknivestogo.
Chef Knives to go were cheap and super fast with their shipping. I will be using them for future purchases.
Great knife at a great price.
Super sharp.Worth the extra few bucks.
pros: very thin blade,well balanced & light,sharp,comfortable handle (if you pinch the knife even better compared to pro-line)
cons: feels overly delicate,straight blade or less curve is not liked by everyone,sides have an unpolished strip (unattractive),pakkawood handle
My favorite for slicing veggies!!
This thing is crazy sharp,I have no problem shaving hair on my arm with it,and it glides through anything I put on the board like it was nothing.
It’s easy to sharpen with my Shapton glass stones and holds an edge very well. An amazing knife for the money.
Makoto Kurosaki has used SG2 to make this excellent bunka knife. His choice is a good one from the standpoint of ease of maintenance and durability. SG2 steel has an ability to feel rather carbon-like when forged by a good blacksmith. It has a very hard feel but is able to hold an edge over the long haul. It also has a high wear resistance as compared to other knife steels. However, it is quite easy to sharpen, more so than any other stainless steel. The inner core is clad san-mai style with a soft stainless steel. It is given a very nice hairline finish.
Makoto is an expert sharpener and it is very apparent with this knife. The grind is exceptional, as is the overall thinness of this laser. It is thin but not wispy. The bunka itineration exhibits very easy controllability while truly falling through food with an ease that is quite remarkable.
That this finely made package should come in at this price is the true icing on the cake. We highly recommend these knives.

Premium SG2 Stainless Steel! Our featured knives are forged from SG2 stainless steel, a high-performance powdered metallurgical steel akin to R-2 Powdered High Speed tool steel. While R-2 is produced by the Kobelco steel company, SG2 is marketed by Takefu steel company. Custom knife makers often use a different forging and heat treatment process for R-2 steel, but SG2 remains an excellent choice for kitchen knives, offering easy maintenance and long-lasting sharpness.
135mm Petty Knife: Precision and Beauty The 135mm petty knife is perfect for detailed kitchen tasks such as garnish preparation. Its ultra-slim and thin blade is ground with a 50/50 symmetrical edge, ensuring precise cuts. The elegant cherry wood handle provides exceptional balance, enhancing the knife's functionality and aesthetic appeal. We highly recommend these knives from Makoto Kurosaki, a master blacksmith whose skill is evident in every blade.
Using VG10 stainless steel as the knife's core, Makoto-san clads it with suminagashi stainless steel. VG10 is knife steel designed explicitly for kitchen knives, and when properly heat treated, makes wonderful knives. This steel is prevalent in the kitchen knife world. It has great wear resistance and edge retention and is fairly easy to sharpen. Makoto-san hardens the steel to about 62 HRC. The knife is san-mai style of awase which means they're clad and have the hard steel down the middle. It's a common technique in Japanese kitchen cutlery.
Makoto-san has developed into an incredibly talented sharpener, and the outstanding attribute of these new knives is their superb grinds. These are as good as we have seen, even in knives costing far more money. The blades are wonderful cutters, and we think you will be impressed when you use them. The handle is made from rosewood and uses a black pakka wood ferrule.

He started making blades under his own name quite recently, and his offerings from the start were hits with many of our customers. His original limited offerings through CKTG have grown, and now included the Ryusei line of Aogami Super stainless clad knives. We are pleased to be the first store in the world to offer them for sale.
As of 5-10-2021, Makoto-san is using a new stainless steel for him called VG7. The blades are clad with stainless steel. The VG7 hagane is hardened to 61.5+ HRC which bestows the blade with the ability to take and hold a super sharp edge.
The spine is certainly thin and it has a lovely primary bevel which comes together at a super thin edge. It really is a great looking knife from every angle. Nice laser engraved kanji and good looking handle constructed from maple and red dyed pakka wood complete the package.

The blade is quite thin at the spine and after the high transition to the primary blade road, it thins out even more in a most satisfying way. One look at the choil shot will clearly illustrate the wonderfully thin and precise grind achieved by this budding master.

The Kiri VG-10 bunka is made using the well liked VG-10 stainless steel and the blade is hardened to about 61-62 HRC. It is ground fairly thin overall and even more so just behind the edge. One of the characteristics of a bunka is the very flat profile and sharp kiritsuke-style tip. This makes it a good choice for those chefs preferring a push-cutting technique. The edge is very sharp right out of the box and is ground with a symmetrical 50/50 edge.
The Masakage Kiri is a fully stainless construction, so maintenance is not a huge concern as it would be with a high-carbon steel blade. Edge sharpness is fairly easily achieved with this steel, edge retention is another attribute of the V Gold alloy. The looks of the blade are further enhanced by some nicely executed hand-engraved kanji and a well made oval magnolia handle and red dyed pakka wood ferrule.
Short gyutos are becoming more popular due to their ease of handling characteristics. Newcomers to the world of kitchen knives and cutting techniques will welcome this size as it is a great tool to start learning the art of both knife use and maintenance. The shorter length is also perfect for smaller spaces and smaller hands. It makes for a versatile blade in use as it can handle most cutting and slicing tasks as well as more intricate work like garnish prep and herb chopping.
The great looking blade is further complemented by some nicely executed hand engraved kanji. A well-made oval magnolia handle and red dyed pakka wood ferrule complete this compelling picture. ||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/masakagekiri1.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|maki27gy||item-1||solidtemplate||katoknives1||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/masakage-kiri-270mm-gyuto-99.png||||||Masakage Kiri VG-10 Gyuto 270mm||KiriGyuto270||specials > forknco > hiroshikato > katoknives1 > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > Kato (Yoshimi) > All Kato Knives > ||327.000||327.000 ||||||||2.000 ||||1||1||1||0||||||||Masakage Kiri 270mm Gyuto. This excellent example of blade making from Takefu Village in Echizen Japan features beautiful damascus cladding and VG-10 stainless steel for a completely stainless steel knife that is easy to care for and cuts exceedingly well. Masakage brand is dedicated to delivering beautiful, high performing kitchen cutlery. This 270mm gyuto from the Kiri line is an exemplar of those ambitions. Handmade by Hiroshi Kato, a master blacksmith with over 50 years of experience, the Kiri has impeccable fit and finish, a very attractive Damascus cladding, and a beautiful magnolia wood handle with red pakka wood ferrule. The core steel of the knife is VG-10 hardened to 61-62 HRC giving the knife all stainless steel construction for ease of maintenance. Performance is first rate with an outstanding grind characteristic of all knives in the Masakage lineup.
Honesuki knives are designed to part out poultry by nimbly working through the joints and separating the parts. They are not intended to cut through bone, however. The thin pointed tip excels at getting in between joints and around carcasses, resulting in a cleanly prepped bird with minimum over-cutting or ragged portions.
Care for the Kiri is easy as both the core and cladding layers are stainless steels. The main characteristics of Masakage knives are their outstanding grinds and high level of fit and finish. So it is with this fine piece of cutlery. The handle is magnolia wood with a striking red pakka wood ferrule.
We have a thing about small pettys. They can take on a multitude of tasks around the kitchen and they look so cool! Masakage Kiri VG-10 Petty 75mm is one of our favorites.
Hiroshi Kato is one of the more well known blacksmiths working in the Takefu Village Co-operative. In fact, he is one of the founders of this famous knife making community boasting over 50 years of experience in his trade. He makes a number of different knives under various names including Kanehiro and Masakage.
The Kiri line of kitchen knives is noted for their fine materials, expert grinds, top notch fit and finish and stunning aesthetics. The core steel used in this line is VG-10 or V Gold -10. It is a fully stainless alloy that is used extensively in the cutlery industry. It possesses great edge taking and holding attributes. It is one of the most durable alloys used in the making of knives. Chipping can be an issue with some VG-10 knives but we think that Masakage’s skillful heat treatment reduces this issue to a minimum.
The Masakage Kiri VG-10 Petty 75mm is a champ at paring and peeling tasks. It also shines as a tool for prepping garnishes. The lovely magnolia and red dyed pakka wood handle add a look and balance to the blade that are just perfect. This is one of our favorite knife companies and one of our favorite small knives, period!
Masakage Knives are a unique selection of handmade Japanese knives. This small company deals directly with many of the blacksmiths in Takefu Village. Shibata-san, the company's owner, selects different styles from each smith to form a great group of knives and he finish sharpens them himself with a high degree of skill. These knives are a true pleasure to own and use. We have selected several of their top knife lines that use high-quality steels and attractive finishes.||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/masakageknives.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|musakagekoishi||item.||solidtemplate||hiroshikato||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/masakage-koishi-112.png||||||Masakage Koishi||||specials > forknco > hiroshikato > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > Kato (Yoshimi) > ||||||||||||||||0||1||0||0||||mako75pe makope12 makoho15 makope15 makona16 makobu makosa17 makoasgy18 makogy21 makogy24 makogy27 makosu27 ||||The Masakage Koishi line is handmade with Aogami Super steel and hardened to 63:65 HRC.

The 170mm bunka is similar to a santoku in its size and versatility. It offers a very thin tip that glides through food and a slightly curved belly that excels at all forms of cutting, be it push cuts, slicing, or rocking. Hardened to around 64 Rockwell, these knives have excellent edge retention.
Short gyutos are taking off around here lately. They are favored by those looking for a controllable, stiff, and versatile cutter and chopper. Small spaces and small hands are another reason that chefs and cooks are embracing the design.
The knife is made from Aogami Super High Carbon Steel. This is one of the best high carbon alloys extant and is revered for its durability and potential to hold an extremely fine edge. The inner core (hagane) of this knife is clad with a softer stainless layer (jigane) using the san-mai method of wrapping a blade on both sides while leaving the spine and edge exposed. The name Koishi means pebbles in Japanese and it is this description that perfectly illustrates the look of the hammered kurouchi finish applied to the outer layer steel.
Like other knives in this line, the 180mm gyuto is a magical cutter that can only be appreciated once it has been experienced. There are not many blades out there that can do it better.
Cutting edge: 219mm
Length from back of choil: 215mm
Height at heel: 47mm
Spine width at handle: 5mm
Spine width in front of pinch grip(5cm from handle): 2mm
I work at a moderately high volume restaurant (between 500 and 750 covers on a busy night) so in the few weeks I’ve had this it has seen some pretty heavy use.
My first impression of the knife upon opening it is that the pictures didn’t do it justice. The fit and finish is impeccable. This knife is simply stunning and as the exposed edge has patinaed it has only gotten more so. It was also wicked sharp out of the box w/ no need to sharpen it at all. I have a coworker who is afraid of it. It has also kept its edge extremely well. I’ve yet to sharpen it. I do however stop it nightly and hone it occasionally on my mac black ceramic rod. The handle is also gorgeous however,there is a distinct texture difference between the cherry wood handle and pakka wood ferrule. Once i hit them with a quick sanding with 1200 grit sandpaper that was all taken care of. Also i was a little unsure of an octagonal handle but found no problems with it. In fact,this is the most comfortable knife i have ever held (for reference I do use a pinch grip).
It has been a pleasure to cut with and,I have used it for pretty much everything requiring a knife in the kitchen. This knife is not a laser,but the grind is excellent. It only experiences minor wedging in taller hard ingredients such as squash. I mostly chop and use push/pull cuts and on anything softer than an onion the knife does quite literally fall through. When chopping celery I could not feel the blade go through,only hear it. The hammered kurouchi finish is a bit rough to the touch but the only effect when cutting is you can really hear the knife when cutting. The koishi is also quite nimble and i have been using it to peel all sorts of ingredients (carrots,cucumbers,jicima,potatoes,etc.) and even for parring a bit. I also love the slight recurve of the choil area. I used to use chinese cleavers and tend to use the heel of knives as my point for many pairing tasks. This knife is the best for that of any i have tried. I also have never had an easier time of trimming and butterflying multiple cases of chicken the edge on this knife just glides through any meet laid before it.
There have been many statements that decry the use of carbon steels in the professional kitchen because of maintenance issues. I found just keeping a damn sanitizer rag and a dry rag both folded next to my board gives me the ability to give the knife a few wipes on each occasionally. I have had absolutely no problems with rust and with the way this AS steel performs more maintenance we would still be worth it.
I only have a couple of very minor qualms with this knife. First,I find it to be a little short for my tastes,however if i had gone for the 240 I think it would have fixed this. I should have paid more attention to what I read in the forums. My own fault there. Second,was the handle texture I mentioned before.
All in all I love this knife. I am extraordinarily pleased with all aspects of my purchase. Thank you to everyone at Chef Knives to Go for your exemplary service,and to every one on this forum for being the wealth of information and positive feedback that you are.
This is an impressive knife. I have been using it for over 6 months,I prefer using an item before reviewing. I’m a consultant and I have not cooked professionally for over 15 years,but I’m still picky about my knives and equipment and they get extensive daily use.
This a “beautiful” knife very light and comfortable in the hand. It was extremely sharp out of the box,finish and fit are perfect as I would expect for this level ($) of knife. The carbon steel edge has been a non issue with me. It holds it’s edge and I have yet had to sharpen it,only the ceramic Mac black rod so far.
The only slight problem I have is with the “pebble/tsuchime“ surface it’s beautiful,however,I find thin slices of onions,tomatoes,cucumber,etc. have a tendency to hang on the blade. This is a minor problem and would not stop me from recommending this knife to anyone. Next up a Masakage petty.
The bottom line is I love it. 5 Stars
As always CKTG are accurate in product descriptions fast in their shipping and a pleasure to do business with.

The 210mm gyuto is the Japanese equivalent of an 8" chef's knife. It is a multipurpose blade with unmatched versatility. It is perfectly at home rocking, chopping, or slicing, be it through vegetables, tubers, or proteins. A perfect size for those who want the standard kitchen knife profile but don't want the extra length of a 240 or 270mm.
thank you for a excellent knife. I am very happy using it and aslo good shipping and other supporting services. Great job. I am looking forward ordering some other stuff from your shop. BR,Katka
The Honesuki (hoh-NESS-kee) is a Japanese-style boning knife. Its triangular taper down to a thin, surgical tip allows the knife to gain easy entry between bone joints, or to slip effortlessly beneath unwanted skin or tendons. The otherworldly edge retention of the hardened Aogami Super Steel helps this knife stay sharp longer so that meat fabrication is a breeze.
The nakiri-bocho, roughly translated, means 'knife for cutting greens' and it certainly excels in that arena. These tipless knives have a unique look and are excellent for any and all vegetable preparations. Their flatter bellies help create a greater length of contact with the cutting board and nakiris are best utilized in a push or draw cut motion, not so much for Western-style rocking.
This 120mm petty measures about 4.75 inches in blade length and is more of a standard size petty than the 75mm, with 120-150mm being typical. This knife is ideal for small prep work like mincing shallots or garlic, or even cleaning up a tenderloin.
This 150mm petty knife is made from Aogami Super Steel, an alloy prized for its ability to take a keen edge and retain it. It is a wonderful all-purpose prep knife for small veggies and proteins. It is lightweight and nimble, will make quick work of shallots and garlic, and is excellent to use when detailed tip work is needed.
This 75mm petty is a good stand-in for the Western paring Knife. Its short, easily maneuvered blade length makes it a great candidate for in-hand tasks like turning potatoes (tourné) or peeling small fruits and vegetables. Also makes a great cheese knife.
At the center of it all you will find Aogami Super Blue, commonly referred to as AS on the CKTG forums. Aogami Super is known for the super acute and ultra keen edges that it is able to produce. Not only can it take a fantastic edge, but it will hold it for a very long time. AS arguably has the best edge retention of all the blue and white carbon steels that we carry. The heat treat on these ranges from 63-65 HRC. This is a superlative carbon steel that makes a great foundation for such an amazing series of knives.
Surrounding the AS core steel is a softer stainless cladding that has a tsuchime (hammered) finish. The softer stainless cladding adds durability and strength to the very hard core steel. The finish over the tsuchime is a very well done kurouchi. The grinds and geometry on the Koishi line are done with performance in mind. The handle is octagonal shaped, and crafted from cherry with a black pakka wood ferrule. The fit and finish on the blade and handle are outstanding.
Kumo translates into Clouds and it is the perfect description for the cloudy looking damascus pattern that is a feature of the line.
The knife is all stainless steel, utilizing VG-10 as the core with a softer stainless alloy employed as the damascus layer. VG-10 is a wonderful knife steel as it can take a very sharp edge and hold that sharpness for a long time. It is also fairly easy to sharpen back to this superior edge. The blade is perfectly matched to a fine rosewood and black pakka wood handle that is comfortable to hold and use for long periods.
There are many reasons that Masakage Kumo knives are among our most popular and long running lines. We welcome you to discover them yourself with this versatile and easy to maintain ko bunka.
The Kumo blades are constructed from the very popular stainless steel, VG-10. VG-10 is a stainless alloy with a particularly high carbon content. The steel was first created by the Takefu Special Steel Company and is now so popular that the Japanese knife industry has requested that it be sold only inside the home country to preserve the supply chain.
Ikeda san covers the core steel with multiple layers of a softer stainless steel. The cladding is heavily etched to reveal the stunning damascus style blade road with a pattern that resembles storm clouds. Thus the name, Kumo!
This is about the smallest size that gyuto style knives are made. At just 180mm, it is part large petty and part santoku, not just in dimensions but in abilities and feel. People who like a shorter blade will be intrigued by this knife as it serves so many purposes and is so adroit at those many tasks. Add to that the impeccable craftsmanship that has gone into the blade as well as the beautiful rosewood handle and you have a knife that would be a fine addition to any professional or home chef’s knife roll.
Masakage Kumo knives are made from VG-10 stainless steel which is particularly liked for its great edge-taking and -holding characteristics. VG-10 has a high carbon content of 1% plus trace elements including chromium, molybdenum, vanadium, cobalt, and manganese. The steel was first created by the Takefu Special Steel Company and is undoubtedly one of the most popular stainless steels used in the making of kitchen cutlery.
The VG-10 core is clad with a multi-layer soft stainless steel which, after grinding and etching, reveals a stunning damascus pattern that reminded blacksmith Anryu-san of clouds. Thus the name, Kumo (clouds in Japanese). The blade is mated to a finely crafted handle made from rosewood with a pakka wood ferrule.
VG-10 stainless steel is the core of this blade because of its ability to take and hold a very fine edge while being very easy to maintain. The inner VG-10 is covered with a multilayer cladding of a softer stainless steel that has been forge welded into a damascus billet. The fine details of the layers are revealed by grinding and etching the blade. The resulting pattern reminds one of clouds, so it's named Kumo, which means clouds in Japanese.
Like all of Ikeda-san’s blades, this gyuto has beautifully executed grinds that get very thin behind the edge. The blade is quite thin over all, while the profile has a fairly gentle continuous curve with very little flat spot. It would particularly suit a person who favors a rocking style of cutting. The wonderful looking blade is perfectly matched to a finely crafted octagonal rosewood handle with a pakka wood ferrule.

Customarily, honesuki knives are single bevel designs, although there are several that are ground on both sides, like this example from Masakage. There are several advantages to a double bevel knife. It is far easier to sharpen. It has a larger inclusive angle to the edge, so it is less prone to be damaged. And it can be used by left- and right-handed chefs.
The Masakage Kumo Honesuki 150mm is a perfect boning knife for pros and home chefs alike. It is super easy to maintain due to its double bevel design and fully stainless steel construction. The core steel is VG-10 which is, by far, the most popular stainless alloy used in Japanese kitchen knife construction. The soft stainless cladding is given a stunning damascus look reminiscent of clouds. Thus its name, Kumo, which means clouds in Japanese. The handle is octagonal shaped made from rosewood with a pakka wood ferrule.
Not only will this knife fulfill its promise as a great boning utensil, but it can also double as a very capable petty knife for cutting smaller ingredients and preparing garnishes.
The core steel is made from VG-10, a popular stainless steel found in many high-end knives from various manufacturers around the globe. The Damascus cladding is also stainless steel, making this knife a very care-free option. The core steel is taken to a hardness of 61 to 62 HRC.
The blade offers a generous radius at the tip of the blade to allow for rocking of the blade. The handle is octagonal rosewood with a pakka wood ferrule.
The Kumo line of knives has been a top seller in or store for years. It combines some of the most desirable traits that knife users seek out: great profile and grind; easy-to-maintain steel; excellent fit and finish; and that very cool looking Damascus steel.
The core of these knives is made from VG-10 stainless steel. This is one of the most popular stainless alloys in the kitchen knife business. It has some fine properties including great edge taking and retention, super corrosion resistance, and an overall toughness that is hard to beat in stainless steel. The outer Damascus layer is made from a softer stainless alloy to protect the core steel and add subtleness and shock resistance to the blade. The cladding is heavily etched to reveal the stunning pattern that resembles storm clouds.
This is a good sized petty for almost every small cutting task around the kitchen. Board cutting and hand held processes are both within the scope of this blade, along with the ability to take on garnishes and other artistic style cutting needs. The blade is mated to a rosewood octagonal handle with a black pakka wood ferrule.
The Damascus VG-10 steel this knife is crafted from is what gives this series its name; Kumo, meaning Cloud. The pattern is mesmerizing and beautifully done... by hand! VG-10 is a full stainless steel that is popular among knife makers the world over. The steel is very wear resistant and will hold an edge a very long time. Being that it's stainless, corrosion and rust resistance is very high. The heat treat on the Kumo series is in the neighborhood of 61-62 HRC.
The octagonal Rosewood handle is finished with a black Pakka wood ferrule. As with all offerings from the Masakage line of knives; fit and finish is far above average.
Masakage operates out of Takefu Knife Village, a small enclave of blacksmiths, sharpeners, and other craftsmen located in Echizen, which is part of the Fukui Prefecture of Japan. The cooperative was founded by a group of leading blacksmiths to share their knowledge, skills, and equipment for the betterment of all the participants. Over the years the cooperative has grown and is now one of the centers of knife making in Japan.

The Masakage Kumo Petty 75mm is a champ at paring and peeling tasks. It also shines as a tool for prepping garnishes. This is one of our favorite knife companies and one of our favorite small knives, period!
VG-10 is a stainless steel with a particularly high carbon content of 1%. It also contains 15% Chromium, 1% Molybdenum, 0.2% Vanadium, 1.5% Cobalt, and 0.5% Manganese. The steel was first created by the Takefu Special Steel Company.
Ikeda san clads the core steel with multiple layers of a softer stainless steel. The cladding is heavily etched to reveal the stunning damascus style blade road with a pattern that resembles storm clouds.
Santoku knives are gaining popularity in the west as a replacement or alternative to a chef knife. It has a tall blade that has a distinctive sheep foot front end. This design draws the spine of the blade down towards the tip resulting in a flatter profile than a chef or gyuto-type knife possesses. This makes it a really good choice for those who like to push cut rather than using a rocking motion.
Edge bevel is 50/50, so the Masakage Kumo santoku is suitable for a right- or left-handed user. The handle is octagonal rosewood with a pakka wood ferrule.
The blade is covered in a multi-layer cladding of a softer stainless steel which reveals, through grinding and etching, a stunning damascus pattern that reminds blacksmith Ikeda-san of clouds. Thus the name, Kumo (clouds in Japanese).
Sujihiki knives are two-sided slicers as opposed to the single-sided yanagibas. As such, they are far easier to use and maintain while performing a similar task of slicing proteins in one single drawn action. At 270mm this is a medium sized example of the breed, so it’s perfect for home chefs or pros working in tight spaces.
Adding to the stunning appearance of the blade is a finely crafted handle made from rosewood in the main section and pakka wood for the ferrule. This is a beautiful blade that performs as well as it looks.
This knife features a clad design with a core of Aogami #2 steel, hardened to 62-64 HRC, enveloped in a reactive outer layer, and finished with a sleek, deep black kurouchi coating. Both the core steel and outer layer are reactive, meaning the knife will develop a unique patina over time and require careful handling to avoid rust (Simply wipe dry after using). The handle is ergonomically oval-shaped, constructed from Japanese cherry wood, and capped with a resin ferrule.

The handle is ergonomically oval-shaped, constructed from Japanese cherry wood, and capped with a resin ferrule.
The 165mm Shimo Bunka is essentially a santoku with a sword tip. Many prefer this profile to the santoku for the bunka’s ability to handle more detailed tip work and the reduced drag toward the end of the blade. The edge profile is nice and flat with a bit of belly for rocking towards the tip.
Kurosaki-san has earned a reputation for crafting knives that are wonderful all-around performers, exhibiting excellent convex geometrics through the middle of the blade, very thin grinds behind the edge, and top class treatments of his chosen steels. In the case of the Shimo, Shirogami #2 is utilized as the core steel. The Shirogami #2 is wrapped with an iron damascus cladding and is quite reactive, so due care should be taken during and after use to keep the blade dry and acid free. Edge retention is superb, and the core steel is very easy to sharpen and can take and hold high levels of refinement on the stones.
180mm is the entry length of most gyutos. This is a knife for lovers of more compact blades or those who work in reduced areas or on smaller cutting boards. But do not let the diminutive size fool you into thinking this is reflected in the knife’s performance. This is a cutter capable of taking on pretty much any normal kitchen task.
love the look of the knife and sharp OOTB.
The grind on these knives provides an example of some of the best convexing we have seen, which reaches an apex towards the middle of the blade’s height tapers from the heal section towards the tip which becomes flat ground, allowing it to perform very well when using the tip to fly through softer ingredients.
The edge profile on the Shimo line is very flat with some nice belly towards the tip. These knives are begging to be push and pull cut and used for chopping. That said, there is certainly enough curvature to excel in rocking as well. Fairly light weight, the knife is nonetheless able to handle just about any ingredient put in front of it.
It should be noted that both the core steel and the cladding are reactive. Indeed, the iron cladding on these blades is some of the more reactive cladding on our site. These knives should be kept dry and wiped clean during use.
The Masakage Shimo 210mm gyuto is actually oversized at 220mm which we find to be an excellent length for this knife. As noted, it is capable of high performance through just about any ingredient and as such is a true athlete of a knife.
The Shimo 240mm gyuto is a lighter middleweight knife with excellent blade geometry and a nice flat edge profile. Fit and finish is very good and the handles are done in unstabilized Magnolia wood. These knives are truly excellent all-around athletes and are a dream to cut with through even the toughest of ingredients.
Lastly,I selected this nakiri among all others for the depth of the blade (59mm),and the curve of the blade nearest the handle. The depth and the thinness of the front edge make this a good tool for picking up chopped food to move from cutting board to skillet or pot.
The Damascus cladding on the knife gives the line its moniker. Shimo, meaning “frost,” is manifested through the unique hammer patterns and finish meant to mimic the ice patterns that form on windows during the winter. The handle on the knife is traditional magnolia wood with a tough pakka wood ferrule. Like the blade, these unstabilized handles require care in maintaining.
The Masakage Shimo Nakiri is rendered in 165mm format, by far the most popular length for nakiris. The character of this line is particularly well suited to a nakiri. The flat edge profile, multi-purpose grind, and great treatment of White #2 make the Shimo particularly well suited to veggie prep work. That said, these knives are very reactive and require diligent care. Indeed, we recommend forming a patina on the blade before using it in a professional environment or when prepping more acidic foods.
The santoku is a multi-purpose knife, but with a slight vegetable bias. Santoku means “three virtues” or “to solve three problems.” The virtues or problems are slicing, dicing, and mincing. They are becoming more and more popular in Western kitchens due to the unique shape and smaller, easy to handle size. These knives are begging to be used for chopping and push-and-pull cutting.
Fairly light in weight, the knife is nonetheless able to handle just about any ingredient put in front of it. The symmetrical convex grind and blade geometry on all of Kurosaki knives are really the stars of the show. Ultra-thin behind the edge, the final grind blends seamlessly with a generous convex section in the middle. While not lasers, these knives slide through soft and hard produce with equal ease making them tremendous performers in a broad range of applications.
While the knife is considered to be one of the more reactive iron clad blades on our site, this becomes less of an issue with this 270mm Sujihiki. While the knife can appropriately be used for veggie prep, its primary purpose is for slicing proteins and some fillet work. Given that, the blade should stay relatively pristine and take on an attractive patina if cared for properly.
The Yuki line is constructed from White #2 carbon steel. This is one of the most popular steels in the knife world, admired for its ability to take a very fine edge while being quite easy to sharpen. This inner core is clad with a softer stainless steel to add strength and durability to the blade. It also reduces the need for constant maintenance, although you will still need to care for the exposed edge to prevent corrosion. The outer core, which is also called the jigane, is given a very attractive nashiji, or pear skin, finish.
This is about the shortest available length for a classic gyuto. It is a preferred size for smaller hands or restricted board areas. The edge grinds on these knives are stellar and we really like the overall fit and finish of the package. The combination of the nashiji blade finish and that unique magnolia and red pakka wood handle add up to a knife with extremely good looks and capabilities.
I’ve used a variety of knives and handled quite a few more doing the Quick Look product videos for CKTG. There’s just something about holding a Masakage - you can feel the soul and craftsmanship that go into creating these great kitchen tools.
The Yuki 210 Gyuto looks fantastic,has lower maintenance stainless cladding over the carbon steel core,comes super sharp OOTB,and it cuts like a dream. The Yuki’s are very thin behind the edge and the combination of the grind geometry and refined rustic finish help food release as well.
The edge profile shape is very versatile,and the tip is thin enough to fly through onions,brunoise shallots,mince garlic,etc. The blade also has enough weight to help cut through product. It’s not a laser,but it’s not heavy either.
I have found the White #2 core steel to be minimally reactive in normal use with moderate upkeep while prepping. Once you get a good basic patina on the edge,you can go to town with this thing!
The grind and edge are also 50/50,so it’s perfect for this lefty.
This is just a fun knife to use and a great knife like this helps make prep more enjoyable (at least for me it does).
If you are looking at this style of Japanese Gyuto,I don’t think you can go wrong with the Yuki 210 or it’s big brothers the 240/270.
I am very pleased with the quality of the knife. It is very well balanced,the fit & finish are almost flawless,and the blade is extremely sharp out of the box.
I am looking forward to doing business with CKTG again to add more knives to my kitchen collection !
I watched the videos about the knife and assumed it would be heavier,but I was wrong. It’s very light for a "blade-heavy" knife. Balance point is further than where one would have a pinch grip,just as the video said. The aesthetic is just simply stunning and edge OOTB is exceptional. All in all a quality knife. Definitely worth the investment. Thanks CKTG for the fast shipping!
The white 2 already has a great starting patina after just one use which I prepped an onion,2 bell peppers and some garlic. So it is fairly reactive,as to be expected,so make sure you don’t leave water on it.
The knife is fantastic and it works every bit as good as Shaun show’s it performing OOTB. I have yet to sharpen it or put it through a large amount of use so I can’t comment on that. Based on the steel and the HRC I know it will hold an edge for a good amount of time as well as be able to get wicked sharp.
The blade depth is great,tons of clearance. It’s real thin behind the edge,slightly thicker than my AS Laser. I love the tradition of including the coin attached as to show no ill will,down the road I will purchase another knife from another of Masakage’s lines for a different steel type.
Had the Magnolia portion of the handle came better finished I would have given it 5 stars,the 4 stars has nothing to do with the performance of this beautiful knife.
Chicken bones are no match for this beast of a blade. I have used and abused this knife plenty in the approx. 6 months that I have owned it and it shows no sign of any wear,even after breaking down dozens of birds. I even used it to bone out a couple of whole hogs I helped a friend butcher.
I’ve touched it up once on my edge pro system,but it was more because I "felt it was time" than because the blade had dulled.
In fact,I have been so impressed,I am currently looking into the rest of the Masakage line to supplement my ever-growing collection of Japanese knives.
As always,CKTG was quick and courteous. They have made a lifetime customer out of me!
Kato-san fashions the Yuki line out of the popular and well-loved White, or Shirogami, #2 steel. In this case, it is hardened to 62-63 HRC. This a wonderful alloy for kitchen knives, exhibiting the ability to take a super sharp cutting edge. Of course, this high carbon steel is also extremely reactive. To aid in maintenance and increase strength and lightness, the inner core is then covered with a layer of softer stainless steel. This outer layer is then given a very attractive nashiji (pear skin) finish.
The santoku is rapidly becoming a favorite knife style in many western kitchens. It has the all-around cutting and slicing abilities of a gyuto with the extra height and shorter blade of a nakiri. It is a dexterous knife that finds itself used in many situations. Santoku translates to three virtues and the acts of slicing, chopping, and dicing are tackled with aplomb by this classic design.
The 210mm gyuto is a perfect size chef knife for all uses and spaces: not too big, not too small. The blade comes sharpened to fine 70/30 edge. The blade height is generous for a 210mm knife, which gives that extra bit of finger clearance without the penalty of too much bulk. We really like the grinds on the blades of Masamoto knives which contribute to their exceptional precision and speed. This is one of the most popular sized gyutos made by one of the most popular Japanese knife makers worldwide.
I love it!!
Thanks Mark!
This 240mm gyuto is a real jack-of-all-trades in the kitchen and this particular version of the ubiquitous knife possesses a nice balance and fast cutting action. This is a great rendition of East meets West. The yo handle is constructed from a composite material known as Duracon, which possesses great stability and is anti-bacterial. The Japanese-style blade is light and more agile than its European and American counterparts. A nice, durable, and easy-to-use the knife for all kinds of uses and users.
One thing to note,Masamoto VG is not truly "stainless". More like semi- stainless. Rust will form on the surface if left wet. Proper knife habits easily rectify this...
The handle is a little small for my hands but other than that it is great
The 150mm Utility featured here is a great all rounder. Slim and light in the hand. Fast and accurate in the cut. Like the other knives in the VG line it is constructed from their proprietary Hyper Molybdenum Vanadium stain resistant steel. This fine grained alloy takes a very sharp edge and holds it though the longest kitchen sessions. It also exhibits outstanding stain resistance. It is rated at 58-59 HRC.
Boasting a very thin profile and asymmetrical bevel of 70/30 the Masamoto Utility knife is a perfect blade for any chef looking for performance and durability in a finely crafted western style Japanese knife. A great performer at a very reasonable price.
This VG Santoku measures 180mm along the edge. It is a fairly light knife that has a well-balanced feel partly attributable to the Duracon western style handle. The knives in this line feature tough and low maintenance steel known as Hyper Molybdenum Vanadium. It is a fine-grained yet rugged alloy that allows for great edges and long lasting retention. Note that the edges are sharpened with a 70/30 bevel.
Masamoto's new Western-style line is made of a proprietary alloy called Hyper Molybdenum Vanadium. It is a high-carbon stainless steel with added cobalt, molybdenum, and vanadium. These knives are extremely hard, sharp, and stain-resistant. The blades are hardened to an HRC of 58-59 and sharpened to a 70/30 bevel. The mid-sized Gyuto is a real jack of all trades in the kitchen and this particular version of the ubiquitous knife possesses a nice balance and fast cutting action.

The Masutani Gyuto is constructed with a core of VG1 stainless steel. VG1, or V Gold 1, is a high-carbon, molybdenum stainless steel manufactured by Takefu Special Steel Company. It is a steel that is often compared to AUS-8 or VG10. Overall, VG1 is less wear resistant, and a bit tougher than AUS-8 or its high end cousin, VG10. Masutani covers the core in a san-mai style of cladding using a softer stainless steel which receives a very attractive hammered finish. The knife is ground with a deep blade path, which exposes the VG1 steel at the edge, resulting in a nice hamon-like appearance.
The knife has a yo-style Western handle made from rosewood and features a stainless bolster, both of which add to the great looks of the blade. We are stunned by the quality and performance of this budget-priced knife. It might need a touch on your favorite stone before realizing its full potential, but after that it will perform as well as many blades costing twice the amount. This is a perfect choice for a beginner looking to sample an easy to maintain Japanese knife. It would also make a wonderful gift for a student chef or home cook.
Simply one of the best values on our site!

The knives are made from VG1 stainless steel which has achieved the four major requirements for knives: (1) high hardness, (2) high toughness, (3) high wear resistance, and (4) high corrosion resistance, making it suitable for a wide range of uses, including kitchen knives and hair cutting shears.
Nakiri knives are made to cut vegetables. The very flat profile and relatively tall shape result in a blade perfectly suited for push cutters. This knife is, like all nakiris, very thin all around. The inner core is clad in softer stainless steel which aids in protecting the VG1 and also increases the stain resistance of the blade. The cladding is given a very attractive hammered finish.
The knife has a yo-style Western handle made from a single piece of rosewood. It features a stainless bolster which adds to the knife's great looks. We are amazed by the quality and performance of this budget-priced knife. We think you will be too!
The Masutani Santoku is constructed with a core of VG1 stainless steel. VG1, or V Gold 1, is a high-carbon, molybdenum stainless steel manufactured by Takefu Special Steel Company. It is a steel that is often compared to AUS-8 or VG10. Overall, VG1 is less wear resistant, and a bit tougher than AUS-8 or its high end cousin, VG10. Masutani covers the core in a san-mai style of cladding using a softer stainless steel which receives a very attractive hammered finish. The knife is ground with a deep blade path, which exposes the VG1 steel at the edge, resulting in a nice hamon-like appearance.

The knife featured here is made from VG1 stainless steel. It is a close cousin to the very popular VG-10 steel found in many commercial kitchen knives made by the “big boys” of the Japanese knife industry. Unlike VG-10, VG1 contains nickel. However, the steel properties are very similar to VG-10 with maybe slightly less stain resistance but just as much durability and ease of sharpening. The inner core is clad in a softer stainless steel which helps protect the VG1 steel while increasing the stain resistance of the blade. The cladding receives a very attractive hammered finish which, together with the lovely yo-style Western handle made from a single piece of rosewood, creates a very attractive package.
The shorter length of this gyuto is perfectly suited to chefs working with smaller ingredients or in restricted spaces. It is also a good length for novice knife users to hone their cutting skills. The reduced length also makes for a very rigid blade that feels quick and precise in use.

The basic profile is that of a pretty standard gyuto. A small flat area at the back with a nice gently curved belly. As such it will be a good choice for cutting styles of all kinds. The blade has a softer stainless steel outer cladding to enhance protection, aid with food release, and increase the aesthetic appeal. A black pakka wood single-piece western-style handle is mated to the stainless bolster and attached with two stainless pins.

The nakiri that we are featuring here is pretty standard fare as far as overall dimensions go. They are naturally thin knives, created to perfectly slice through vegetables and fruits of all hardnesses. It has an average length blade at 165mm and occupies the midpoint of the scale in terms of height.
The very attractive damascus finish is enhanced by the black pakka wood western-style one-piece handle. It is well made and, together with the nicely formed bolster and stainless pins, presents a picture of subdued quality. It is an easy to use and maintain knife, and quite a remarkable achievement given its competitive price.
Using the very popular stainless steel known as VG10 as the core of the blade, they laminate the steel with an outer layer of a damascus finish soft stainless steel. Then they laser cut the knife from this pre-forged sheet and apply some very well done grinds and edges. Our customers and reviewers are already singing the praises of these knives, and rightly so.
The 165mm santoku is a wonderful all-around knife for pretty much any chef wanting a shorter length blade coupled with a tall profile and robust stiff tip. These are knives that can replace a standard gyuto or western chef especially where space or smaller cutting surfaces prevail. Santoku translates into 3 virtues, which are regarded as slicing, dicing, and chopping—duties that this knife will perform with aplomb.
This particular example is fairly average in its dimensions and weight, but certainly not in its outstanding value or performance. The grinds are very well executed. The heat treat is kept to a low 60 HRC to prevent chipping. And the well-made handle and bolster give the blade a secure and comfortable feel.
All around, this is an outstanding knife that would be a great addition to any kitchen or chef's knife roll, especially if one is looking for great bang for the buck and ease of maintenance characteristics. Highly recommended.
Crafted at its core from VG10 stainless steel by the renowned Takefu Special Steel Company, this knife exemplifies durability. VG10 is celebrated for its high carbon content, ensuring both longevity and remarkable edge retention for culinary excellence.

Matsubara blades have a rich tradition of blacksmithing that goes back many centuries. The techniques that have come from these centuries of smithing are still being used today in the production of knives and farm tools. Tanaka Kama Kogyo is a 4th generation blacksmith who owns the shop and his blades are very popular in this part of Japan. Tanaka-san lives and works with his entire family in his blacksmith shop outside Nagasaki.
Tanaka-san hand forges these fine blades out of Aogami 2 steel. He hardens the steel to a Rockwell rating of 62HRC, which is a sweet spot for Blue #2. He then forge-welds a layer of soft stainless steel to the core using the san-mai method of awasi (cladding).The hammer marks you see on these blades are real, not stamped with a press.
Mr. Tanaka hammer-forged, this blade from Blue #2 Steel, also called Aogami #2, which means "Blue Paper" named after the paper that wraps the steel bars when they're delivered to the blacksmiths. It is very good at taking and holding a sharp edge and can be hardened to a higher degree than other steels. A softer jigane is applied to protect and strengthen this hard edge steel and is finished with a nashiji stainless cladding that has a beautiful rustic look.
A traditional octagonal shaped handle makes the package complete and gives the knife a great look.

The Matsubara Gyuto is made from the very popular Aogami 2 carbon steel. It is hardened to 62 HRC. This highly rated steel is given a cladding of soft stainless steel using a technique known as san-mai. “San mai” translates as three flat things and it is a well-used method of laminating a core steel on both sides with a different metal. The laminate is given a nashiji, or pear skin, finish. This not only enhances the visual appeal of the knife but offers a huge amount of protection to the otherwise corrosion-prone inner core.
The blade is attached to a finely crafted octagonal handle made from rosewood.
Tanaka-San uses the very popular Aogami 2 steel as his core component. He hardens the steel to a Rockwell rating of 62HRC. This is a sweet spot for Blue #2. He then forge welds a layer of soft stainless steel to the core (hagane) using a technique known as san mai. This involves covering both sides of the blade without wrapping the outer layer (jigane) over the spine. The hagane thus shows through at the edge and on top of the spine. These knives must be kept clean and dry to avoid corrosion to the exposed hagane. The jigane then receives a really lovely nashiji, or pear skin, finish.
The Matsubara Blue #2 Nashiji Gyuto 210mm has a profile that is quite flat at the heel end and then transitions into a nice curved belly about halfway along the edge. Blade height is very generous for a 210mm gyuto. This is a robust blade in size and weight which will find favor with users looking for a knife that feels solid and stiff.

Bunkas, or banno-bunkas, can be viewed as a cross between a gyuto and a nakiri. They are similar in overall dimension to a santoku, but with that distinctive Edo-style sword tip. They are versatile and nimble knives capable of tackling all sorts of cutting, chopping, and slicing jobs around the kitchen. Bunkas feature a flatter profile than many other gyuto blades and are particularly suited to push cutting techniques rather than rocking styles. The attractive and great looking sword tip makes it very useful for small or intricate work like preparing garnishes.
The knife comes with a simple but good looking octagonal rosewood handle and black pakka wood ferrule.
Tanaka-san hammer forges his blades from Hitachi White Paper #1, a pure carbon alloy renowned for its hardness and ability to take and hold a sharp edge.

At 240mm this knife sits right in the middle of popular gyuto lengths. It is a tall blade with a slightly thick spine. This adds to the rigidity and responsiveness of the knife while providing extra finger clearance. The grind is a symmetrical, double sided type with a very sharp out of the box edge. It comes attached to a simple D-shaped Ho wood handle with a black buffalo horn ferrule. **We do not have a saya that fits this knife.
Tanaka-san hand hammers his blades from Hitachi White Paper #1, a very pure carbon alloy renowned for it hardness and ability to take and hold a sharp edge. This knife is hardened to 63-64 HRC which is at the upper end of hardness for this steel. The core (hagane) is then covered in a layer of softer carbon steel to add strength and protection. This layer is finished in a kurouchi style of blacksmith carbon which further protects the blade and aids in food release. It also endows the knife with a very nice rustic appearance. A lovely hand-engraved motif further adds to the fine aesthetic of the knife.
The Matsubara White #1 Kiri Cleaver measures 188mm in blade length and has a thicker than average spine measuring just over 3.8mm at the base.
The Matsubara White #1 Petty is a simple and classic knife capable of many cutting and chopping tasks around the kitchen. The blade is of average weight for its length but is a bit thicker at the heel than many others of this size. That distinction adds a higher degree of rigidity to the feel of the knife. The outer steel is finished in a kurouchi style which greatly enhances the durability and corrosion resistance of the blade. It also gives the knife a very characterful, rustic aesthetic prized by many enthusiasts. The finished blade is protected by a clear lacquer coating.
The rosewood handle is nicely finished and proportioned and is mated to a black pakka wood ferrule.

The Matsubara White #1 tall nakiri is a tweener knife between a nakiri and a cleaver and they're fun for chopping a wide variety of foods. The double-sided grind features a very well-finished symmetrical edge bevel. This is a wonderful example of a classic cleaver. A knife should occupy a spot on the shopping list of anyone seeking a medium-sized and modestly priced kitchen knife capable of handling most cutting tasks.
Mr. Tanaka hammer-forged this blade from ZDP189 steel. It is very good at taking and holding a sharp edge and can be hardened to a higher degree than other steels. A softer jigane is applied to protect and strengthen this hard edge steel and is finished with a damascus stainless cladding that has a beautiful look.
A traditional octagonal-shaped handle makes the package complete and gives the knife a great look.
Tanaka-San uses the very popular ZDP189. He hardens the steel to a Rockwell rating of 65+-. This is a sweet spot for ZDP189. He then forge welds a layer of stainless steel to the core (hagane) using a technique known as san mai. This involves covering both sides of the blade without wrapping the outer layer (jigane) over the spine. The hagane thus shows through at the edge and on top of the spine. The jigane then receives a really lovely Damascus etching followed by a near mirror polish.
The Matsubara ZDP189 Damascus Gyuto 210mm has a profile that is quite flat at the heel end and then transitions into a nice curved belly about halfway along the edge. Blade height is very generous for a 210mm gyuto. This is a robust blade in size and weight which will find favor with users looking for a knife that feels solid and stiff. The heft and strength are confidence-inspiring. It comes with a very nice custom octagonal handle.

Both metals are reactive, so care must be given to clean and dry the knife carefully.
The blade itself features a great profile for processing eel which has very tough skin. It has a really cool engraving of a dragon on the blade face.

Tsuru-Kame is a work of Kohsetsu Nagaike who is certified by the Japanese Government as one of the traditional craftsmen. Tsuru means crane and Kame means turtle. It is said from ancient in Japan that cranes live for 1,000 years and turtles live for 10,000 years, and the pair stands for a symbol of long life. He has created this idea in this Kogatana. As you see, the knife part shows a crane and the grip part shows a turtle.

This is one very light knife indeed, weighing in at just 3.8 ounces. The blade length is longer than the name implies, coming in at 216mm. This is a really nice medium length for almost all cutting applications. Blade height is on the short side of average at 46mm. The spine is quite thin with very little taper.
This is a nice nimble knife that boasts very good fit and finish and a good out of the box edge. The profile is quite flat up to about 2/3 along where it transforms to a gently curved edge to the tip. The traditional octagonal ho wood handle has a buffalo ferrule which is well finished and comfortable in the hand. This is a lovely knife that will find favor with both professional and home cooks seeking a finely made tool that looks as good as it performs.
The blade length on this knife is slightly longer than advertised, at 245mm. The weight and blade height are slightly below average for this length. The spine is quite thin and therefore the knife has very little taper. The tip is very finely crafted and will be especially appreciated when more delicate cutting work is required.
Of course the standout visual element of this line of knives is the highly polished damascus cladding. It really sets these blades apart from most others. Together with a high level of fit and finish and a nicely made solid ho wood and buffalo horn octagonal handle, the Misuzu AUS10 gyuto strikes a handsome pose. But make no mistake, this is a performer first and foremost. And we are really pleased to be able to bring this new line of kitchen knives to your attention and kitchen.
The Misuzu nakiri featured here is constructed from AUS10 stainless steel, which is then clad with a beautiful damascus outer layer. This outer layer, or jigane, not only enhances the appearance of the blade but also protects and strengthens the inner layer, or hagane, of AUS10 steel. The cutting-edge steel is hardened to a Rockwell rating of 60 plus. While many stainless steels can be difficult to sharpen, this slightly softer rating results in an easier to sharpen edge, while still retaining its ability to hold that sharpness through the extended use.
The highly polished damascus outer layer of soft stainless steel is made by forge-welding several layers of the steel billets before grinding and acid etching. It finally receives a high polish finish that is simply stunning.
However, performance is just as important as aesthetics at Misuzu. The finely ground and sharpened blade is extremely light and thus extremely nimble. It is very thin, yet not at a loss of control or rigidity. You will be surprised at how usable this knife is. It can take on all but the largest of ingredients. In fact many home cooks turn to their 150mm petty knives for almost all of their daily cutting and chopping needs.
The great looking blade is mated to a nice solid octagonal ho wood handle with a buffalo horn ferrule.
Please Note: These knives often come with small cosmetic scratches which happen during stamp engraving. They're minor and won't affect the use of the knives.
This is a perfect knife to learn to sharpen on. It has steel on the core that will quickly develop a burr and the stainless cladding makes it easy to care for. It's a really fun knife to try and one of the best-selling knives that Misuzu sells to their domestic customers over the past 70 years. Misuzu Knives are produced by a small family run blacksmith shop in Miki Japan. This bunka is a great multi-use kitchen knife, with a long, flat profile ending in a sharp tip.

We love low-priced knives that offer good performance and good looks. So we are particularly pleased to add this new range of kitchen cutlery to our store from the family-run blacksmith shop, Misuzu.
The small team of craftsmen use a steel called SKS93 as the basis of these budget blades. This is a tough, yet easy to sharpen, steel which is hardened to 60-61 Rockwell and then covered with a softer stainless steel cladding. The cladding protects the inner core from corrosion while adding strength to the blade. It is well-finished in an understated and traditional way. The plain D-shaped ho wood handle adds to this simple yet attractive aesthetic.
Nakiri knives are meant to cut vegetables. They are usually thin knives with a very flat profile. This nakiri is slightly unusual in that the shape, which is known as a Kamagata, features a rounded front that resembles a deba. This offers the user a real tip to process finer ingredients, over the more usual blunt square tip found on most nakiris. Unlike a deba, it is a thin blade with a symmetrical double-edge grind.
This is an all-around fun knife that is a great addition to a home chef's knife block and a wonderful tool to get new sharpeners the practice they need before moving on to more challenging blade shapes and grinds.

From the tanto style, sword-like tip to the cute engraving on the handle, this knife wants to be used! At the ridiculously low price why would you not want one in your kitchen?
Bunka knives are such versatile cutters. The pointed tip gets into places other blades simply cannot reach. The flat profile offers push cutters a great board contact area and less chance of accordion cuts. This is great blade for small tasks like chopping herbs and prepping garnishes. It’s short length makes it a good choice for in hand cutting too.
Made from SKS93 alloy, the blade is covered with a soft stainless cladding which makes maintenance a breeze. The blade face is very well finished and the traditional D-shaped Ho wood handle complements the simple looks perfectly.
Please Note: These knives often come with small cosmetic scratches during stamp engraving. They're minor and won't affect the use of the knives.
Misuzu knives are made in a family-run blacksmith shop situated in the town of Miki. They produce several different styles of knives with one thing in common: value for money! We have just added a new line to our selection that reinforces this attribute.
SKS93 is a carbon alloy steel that is similar to AISI O2 tool steel; however, there is no vanadium in the composition of the alloy. It is tough steel with good abrasion resistance. The alloy is hardened to 60-61 Rockwell. The inner core, or hagane, of SKS93 is covered with a layer of soft stainless steel which adds to the blade's strength and helps with ease of maintenance.
The knife is light for a nakiri of this length and has a nice grind and finish. It is a standard style nakiri with a flat profile and blunt rounded tip. The blade height is a conservative 45mm, which gives it a more gyuto-like feel than a taller nakiri which feels more cleaver-like. The edge is well made and features a symmetrical 50/50 grind. The handle is a simple D-shaped ho wood construction with a black plastic ferrule.

The iconic reverse tanto-style tip and short, tall blade result in a knife with a very purposeful look. Not surprisingly, this style of knife is getting more popular, given their do-it-all abilities. Bunkas are suitable for cutting, slicing, and chopping, while the tip allows them to take on smaller ingredients or get into tight spaces. Many chefs use them as an alternative to a petty for garnish and detail work of all kinds.
The step up to VG-10 steel takes this great little knife into a higher place compared to its sibling, especially regarding edge stability, ease of sharpening, and stain resistance. As with the other knives in the line, the profile and grinds are similarly well-executed. It has a really nice thin spine that tapers down to the very fine tip.
The blade length of this knife is slightly longer than many bunka blades, which, together with the added height, results in a comfortable sized knife for most applications and users. There is a long flat spot from the heel to about two thirds along the edge, which transitions into a gentle curve to the tip. This is a fairly lightweight knife that will appeal to those who seek a compact and easy-to-wield cutter. It has a very solid, reassuring feel in the hand and on the board.
This knife comes with a nice ho wood and buffalo horn handle in an octagonal shape.
The core steel's propensity for quick burr formation ensures superior performance and ease of sharpening. Celebrated as one of Misuzu's top-selling knives among their domestic clientele for over seven decades, this knife promises utility and a slice of craftsmanship history. Crafted by a dedicated family-owned shop in Miki, Japan, the knife excels at wafer-thin slices. Left-handed customers will be impressed with the left-handed grind of the blade and the comfortable octagonal custom handle.
The octagonal handle, made from ho wood, offers a comfortable grip, while the buffalo horn ferrule adds a touch of elegance and stability. This knife showcases the signature kurouchi finish that enhances its rustic, artisanal look, as well as a stainless steel tang to ensure durability and resistance to corrosion. Remember this knife is made with a carbon steel edge and needs to be towel dried after using and washing the blade.
The quality is excellent,it’s a true joy to use and the edge out of the box is superb.
Buy with the knowledge that someone has actually ’made’ the blade for you.
The iron-clad Aogami Super (AS) blades of the Moritaka Supreme series are crafted with a kurouchi finish, the rustic aesthetic of which evinces the centuries of tradition in the art of hand-forged blade-craft that Moritaka brings to bear. The core AS steel is treated to achieve a Rockwell Hardness rating of 64-65, which is ultra-hard. These knives take and hold seriously refined edges and, due to the higher alloy content of AS, are a bit more corrosion-resistant than other carbon blades. Bevels and grinds are symmetric, making this series of knives equally well-suited to right- and left-handed users.

This Chuko Bocho (Chinese Knife) has more than enough length to cover large veggie prep work with ease. The core steel is taken to a Rockwell Hardness rating of 64-65 and is capable of a highly acute and very refined edge. Fit and finish on these knives are very good, though it should be noted that despite the kurouchi finish the iron cladding and core steel are still reactive and should be cared for as such. These are truly fantastic hand-crafted blades that we are able to offer at very attractive prices.
The deba’s robust construction and blade thickness are mated to a more obtuse angle on the back of the heel. This allows the user to cut off the heads of fish without damage to the flesh. The rest of the blade is then used to ride against the fish bones, separating out the fillet.
The deba’s most obvious feature is the very thick spine and heavy weight. For all of its apparent bulk, it is a delicate knife in use, as the thin edge allows the chef to feel the bones and joints as the knife cuts through the flesh. Deba knives come in a several varieties, including the longer Mioroshi-deba, the shorter Ko-deba, and the medium sized Ai-deba.
Unlike classic single-beveled deba knives, the Moritaka AS Deba 165mm features a double bevel grind with a 50/50 profile. This makes the knife easier to use and sharpen. Speaking of which, the core steel is a rather high 64 HRC which is at the upper end of the scale for Aogami Super. So while this results in a very hard and somewhat delicate edge it is still a fairly easy blade to sharpen. And these Moritaka AS knives really do take a screaming edge!
I love the patina of the Moritaka blades. And the quality of the handles. The holding of the edge property is,as the French say: "hors competition".
A joy just lifting it out of the box; touch it;let the handle caress the palm of your hand; look at it; work with it; clean it and cherish it.
The Kiritsuke 240mm is on its way to be added to the collection. And I think the Santoku an the Petty will follow soon to complete it. And maybe the cleaver,just because it is such a beautiful piece of craftmanship. And so are they all.
This 180mm deba is also sometimes referred to as a Western deba due to the symmetrical grind and edge bevel. This can be advantageous as the edge is more durable than its single-bevel counterparts and can be used in more applications than simply breaking down whole fish. This is also a tremendous knife for left-handed users who are looking to explore the pattern but don’t want to pay large sums of money to have a left-handed run produced by the smith in Japan. Fit and finish are excellent on these knives, and given the amount of metal that is used to produce debas, this is one of the best values to be found in handcrafted AS steel. Please note that these knives now have a ho wood octagonal handle with buffalo horn ferrule. The video on the page is not current. The photos are current.
Grind on the bevel can be a bit uneven but the steel is great and performance is above price level.
AS steel requires some care (not stainless),but ahhh the edges you get.....
After about six weeks of use,I am impressed with the sharpness of the blade and the knife’s balance. It feels good in he hand. It is also helpful that the knife has a western double bevel as opposed to the single bevel design found on many Japanese knives.
The knife has a rustic almost rough look,however. It could never be considered a "work of art" as a fine sword might be. I used a food-grade mineral oil on the handle and that helped the appearance a good bit. But a buyer should think of this knife as a very good tool and not an object to be admired.
I love how comfortable this knife is,and the edge retention is insane. It was shaving-sharp out of the box,and has maintained that through three solid shifts without any sort of honing,sharpening,etc.
Fit and finish was as good as can be expected on a rustic-looking knife,and I can see the handle lasting for a long time.
Great knife,and yet another great experience dealing with CKTG.
In 210mm, this gyuto gets very thin at the tip and behind the edge. In the hand, these knives feel well balanced and are confidence inspiring. The 50/50 convex grind does a great job separating ingredients and the Aogami Super steel is a real treat to use. It takes an incredibly sharp and refined edge and is slower to patina than other carbon steels due to the higher alloy content in the steel. These knives punch beyond their price point and are a great piece of Japanese blade making history.
Please note that the octagonal handle is now made of ho wood, not yew as shown in the video below.
Moritaka Supreme knives provide an exceptional rendering of Aogami Super steel sandwiched between softer iron cladding which is presented with a Kurouchi finish. Moritaka is one of the oldest and most storied knife makers on our site. They have been forging blades for over 700 years and that tradition is imbued into this wonderful gyuto.

The core steel in the Moritaka Supreme line is a wonderfully treated Aogami Super, which takes and holds a wicked edge. This high-end carbon steel is clad with softer iron and produced with a rustic kurouchi finish. While still reactive, this finish aids in corrosion resistance. Hand-forging blades for over 700 years, Moritaka Hamono offers some of the more unique knives on our site at an incredible value given the performance, fit and finish, premium steel, and handmade nature of the knives.
The blade is paired with a lovely bog oak octagonal handle.
Also the customer service with this company is top notch. Such a great company with great products. Not only will I continue to purchase from them,but I will recommend it to all of my chef friends.
Out of the box the edge was pretty sharp and would shave hair. However,I am a little off center so of course I sharpened it up to a 10k edge. A couple of notes this is Aogami Super steel and takes an edge really nicely so it isn’t a total pain to sharpen and a knife of this style (rustic) is not flawless and does have some imperfections. I think the rewards of how sharp and how wicked they look make up for the short falls ever so small that they are to me. I did need (rather wanted )to flatten the bevels just because I am compulsive that way and so I started with the fron side and went to grinding it didnt go too bad I have worked on much more diffacult knives for sure. So I guess long story short the knife is worth the moeny and effort but this is not a pristine show piece and is a knife that is built to be used and will reward you for such treatment !
Pricing: Slightly more expensive than some eBay vendors,but considering international shipping and customs,the prices are great.
Shipping: Order shipped out within 2 hours. What more can I say! Free shipping is definitely lucrative.
Customer care: Responsive and professional vendor. His participation in online forums adds elements of personality and approachability.
Overall: 5/5
The cutting edge was very sharp right out of the box,but I spent twenty minutes on the stone with it and took it to the next level. That was about a month ago and I haven’t had to sharpen again,and I use that knife in a professional kitchen 5 days a week. I just steel it when I come in in the morning and when I get off,and it keeps laser sharp.
And gosh,this knife is pretty as a picture.
The only trouble I have had is a finicky kurouchi. Slicing baby green plantains took off an unfortunate amount of the black finish,and a few other items have caused similar problems - granny smith apples and lotus root off the top of my head. I think it is rigid high acid foods that do it. So now,my kurouchi has a distinct streak pattern in the middle. But everything else about the knife has been so wonderful,I can’t bring myself to take off a star. The octagon handle looks and feels great,the knife is lightweight,nimble,well balanced,and incredibly sharp,and the other sous chef in kitchen reminds me almost daily how jealous he is of my Moritaka knives.
And the service and shipping were impeccable. Bravo.
I love this knife!
Moritaka knives feel at once both substantial yet nimble in hand and are crafted with a compound/convex grind that does a remarkable job separating ingredients. The highlight of this series of hand-forged knives is the core steel. Taken up to 65 HRC, the Aogami Super in these blades is beautiful. Able to handle incredible levels of refinement and steep edges, the steel just feels downright sexy. Edge retention is superb, and durability is very high. To own this 240mm gyuto is to participate in a centuries-old tradition of Japanese blade-craft at its finest.
Moritaka Hamono has been crafting swords since the 13th century and has been making kitchen cutlery for five generations. The brand's longevity is a testament to the quality of their knives, the tradition of which is tangible the instant you pick one up. Moritaka’s Supreme series offers handcrafted knives containing a core of Aogami Super steel forged with a soft iron cladding and a beautiful kurouchi finish. Kurouchi not only provides a very singular aesthetic to these blades but protects the cladding from corrosion and rusting.

The blade is paired with a lovely custom octagonal handle made with 4,000-year-old Bog Oak.
At 250mm, these knives feel well-balanced and are confidence-inspiring. The 50/50 convex grind does a great job separating ingredients and the Aogami Super steel is a real treat to use. It takes an incredibly sharp and refined edge and is slower to patina than other carbon steels due to the higher alloy content in the steel. These knives punch beyond their price point and are a great piece of Japanese blade-making history.
This knife was made exclusively for Chefknivestogo using a hybrid shape we nicknamed "Togatta." It's a cross between a gyuto and a sujihiki and was popularized by French knife makers and later copied by a few Japanese knife makers over the years. Pro cooks like the versatile shape very much. Moritaka Supreme knives provide an exceptional rendering of Aogami Super steel sandwiched between softer iron cladding which is presented with a Kurouchi finish. Moritaka is one of the oldest and most storied knife makers on our site. They have been forging blades for over 700 years and that tradition is imbued into this wonderful gyuto.

The customer service was second to none also. My order was processed right away and arrived 3 days later.
It’s great for cutting large cuts of meat and for chopping stuff to a powder. You’ll find that the tip will remain incredibly sharp.
But I gave it 4 stars for the following reasons-
Working in Rockpool Bar and Grill (one of Australia’s best restaurants) where presentation is crucial,this knife imparts stains on the foods that are (sadly) crucial to the restaurant.
These two food just happen to be lemons and spanish onions...Carbon steel’s worst enemies lol.
The finish on my knife began to get eaten through as the acids began to take it off. Cut 2mm slices of 40 spanish onions a day and wait for about 30mins and you will notice that the onions turn navy blue/black. The same thing happens for lemons.
Sharpening wise,I put my own bevels- 13degree secondary bevels.
This knife already comes with an extremely large bevel (you WILL see it) and it is advised that you first learn to sharpen knives with such high shinogi lines before you custom sharpen.
One thing I did learn was that this knife does not need microbeveling. It made my herb chopping and chiffonades go to sh** when I added microbevels and all my herbs ended up bruised instead of CUT cleanly.
Using a 1000grit stone took about 45mins of dedicated trial and error to get a proper edge back. I then finished it with a 4000grit JCK stone and a 5000 shapton which brought out a beautiful ’honyaki’ wave-like polish which was pretty much an indication that I had hit that right sharpness.
A quick test on my arm hair and a couple of knicks on my fingers proved me right.
All in all,know what you are looking for before investing in a knife like this :)
The Aogami Super steel used in this knife is of the highest quality. It has been treated to a Rockwell hardness of 65 HRC, which allows for excellent edge retention and a very high level of sharpness. The Kurouchi finish adds a rustic aesthetic to the knife, while the symmetric convex grind and flatter edge profile make it ideal for push and pull cutting.
The knife is constructed using the traditional technique of San Mai, with a layer of Aogami Super Steel forge-welded between two layers of soft iron. The tang is made of stainless steel for added corrosion resistance. The handle is octagonal in shape and made of Magnolia wood, a traditional Japanese handle material known for its durability and beauty. The ferrule is made of buffalo horn, adding a touch of elegance to the knife.
While not inexpensive, we believe that the level of performance, quality of steel and tradition offered by Moritaka knives make them a tremendous value. Please note that we do not have a saya for this knife. Order yours today and experience the difference in quality.

Fit and Feel: Great classic handle,beautiful look to it,very nice pointy tip,a lot heavier than I thought it would be because of the thickness of the steel. But I like some weight when I am boning ;-)
Edge Retention is good
Sharpness is Fantastic
I use this knife for breaking down Lamb primarily (Legs and Shoulders) but it works amazing for chicken,beef and small fish.
Overall a beautiful knife with lots of use and great steel.
Moritaka draws on the company’s 700 years of experience producing hand forged blades to produce this 150mm honesuki, or poultry knife. The edges on this knife can be taken extremely steep and through high levels of refinement on the stones. Given the intended purpose, it may be worth keeping the maker’s bevel angle in place to avoid chipping when working through poultry joints. We highly recommend this knife for left handed users as Moritaka has ground the blade symmetrically which is not the case with most honesukis you will find. Please note as of May 15th, 2015 these knives now have a ho wood octagonal handle with buffalo horn ferrule. The video on the page is not current. The photos are current.

The core steel in the Moritaka Supreme line is a wonderfully treated Aogami Super which takes and holds a wicked edge. This high-end carbon steel is clad with softer iron and produced with a rustic kurouchi finish. While still reactive, this finish aids in corrosion resistance. Hand-forging blades for over 700 years, Moritaka Hamono offers some of the more unique knives on our site at an incredible value given the performance, fit and finish, premium steel, and handmade nature of the knives.

One other thing: ordering from Mark at CKTG is as good as it gets! He’ll inspect knives for you if you ask him,before they are shipped to you,and will take anything back if you are not happy upon its arrival. Shipping is free and QUICK!
Because of the shape of the blade I don’t use it for chopping herbs ( I have my trusty Tojiro for that) but all my slicing and dicing jobs go to the Moritaka.
Thank you Mark and chefknivestogo!!!
The 240mm kiritsuke comes double-beveled and symmetrically ground in Western style which adds some durability to the edge and an ambidextrous personality to the blade overall. The pattern is excellent for push and pull cutting and the flatter edge also makes it a fairly decent slicer. These characteristics make it a favorite with cooks that see a good bit of protein work and veggie prep which does not require rocking through large ingredients. Please note as of May 15th, 2015 these knives now have a ho wood octagonal handle with buffalo horn ferrule. The video on the page is not current. The photos are current.
Fairly thick knife,which is rare among Japanese knives. Slight wedging on a large onion,but that added heft makes the knife a great workhorse.
Can smash & mince garlic with ease,yet can still slice a tomato so thin you can see through it.
Best all around knife I own.
I think this line of Moritaka knives is one of the best values to be found! Aogami Blue Super Steel is one of the best steel for kitchen knives due to its hardness,edge retention and resistance to corrosion,and it’s usually very expensive. The fit and finish are excellent. The fact that they use a SS tang shows they pay attention to details. The rosewood handle is an excellent compliment to the kurouchi finish on the blade.
The san-mai construction of this knife gives it a very solid feel. It has a little flex at the tip,but otherwise it’s very rigid. It has decent feedback when cutting/slicing. This may or may not be to your liking. I really like the solid feeling,but find I have to lighten up quite a bit as I’m working or the blade will cut into the board and stick in it. The knife is overall quite light,but is a tad blade heavy.
Came very sharp OOTB but nothing like the edge it can take with some time at the stones. I have a couple of other very nice SS Japanese gyuto’s,and I find myself grabbing for this one more often that the others. I use it for nearly everything – mincing herbs,crushing garlic,slicing & dicing shallots,julienne veg,and slicing meats. Highly recommend!
this is a knife for knife enthusiasts,to be sure. it needs a lot of TLC but is more than worth it.
Highly recommended.
270mm in a kiritsuke tends to be the favored length for pro cooks who have the available cutting real estate to work with. The additional length and weight can be beneficial when chopping a lot of produce and lets the knife get a bit more elevation, able to cover larger objects. This kiri is 50/50 on the grind and the bevel making it more versatile than its traditional brethren and able to be wielded with identical performance by both right- and left-handed users.

Moritaka Hamono is one of the oldest knife manufacturers we carry on our site and centuries of crafting hand-forged blades have culminated in these wonderful knives. 50/50 convex grinds provide great ingredient separation and the high level of fit and finish on these knives belies the extremely aggressive pricing for such a premium product. We are thrilled to be the only US distributor of these knives which are truly a piece of Japanese blade-making history and exceptional value. It comes with a nice ho wood octagonal handle with buffalo horn ferrule.
The core steel in the Moritaka AS line is the highly regarded Aogami Super, which takes and holds a wicked edge. This high-end carbon steel is clad with softer iron and produced with a kurouchi finish. While still reactive, this finish aids in corrosion resistance. Moritaka has taken the alloy to 64-65 HRC which is a superb treatment for this steel. Edge retention is top-notch as is the out of the box sharpness. The refinement these knives are capable of is exceedingly high. The kurouchi finish on the blade adds a rustic aesthetic which enhances the traditional character of this lovely nakiri. In a fairly unique twist, Moritaka welds a stainless tang to the hand forged blade to prevent corrosion inside the handle. The classic kurouchi finish on these blades also improves the corrosion resistance of the otherwise highly reactive cladding.
This is a thin blade made for processing vegetables, especially harder ones where thicker blades would wedge or stick. As with most nakiri blades, it is very flat at the edge.

Crafting blades since the 13th century, Moritaka Hamono produces some truly prodigious knives at very attractive price points.
I highly recommend this petty to everybody. The fit and finish is incredible and the steel is fantastic.
It is a little larger than most parers but,just a great knife for my purposes. The edge holds up great for long prep sessions and I have yet to have any problems with rust.
I plan on filling in the gaps of my collection with a few more from this line.
The feel is different from the Takedas,not better or worse just different. The performance is on par with the Takedas.
My next purchase will be a Moritaka Yanagiba,the only decision is will it be the 270 or 300?
Love the knife.
Its is very light and the blade it nice and thin.
The only thing I would change is it would be nice if the blade had a little more height to it,but not really a big deal.
I will probably buy the 210 if I decide carbon is not too much of a hassle for use at work.
I am always pleasantly surprised when I open a knife box and find a knife that exceeds my expectations. For me that means that the craftsmanship surpasses the price and the knife is just what I wanted and a little more in this case. Rosewood handle with black ferrule,probably pakkawood,very subtle d shaped handle,perfectly fitted to this cool little blade. I like to see the subtle lines where different metals are joined,tang to blade and layer to layer,the distal taper of a handmade knife. Sharpening is easy and the way the blue steel edge gets a mirror shine and keeps it,is really why I buy these things.The copy says you can send it back and they will sharpen it for you so if you dont like meditating at the sink thats an option. As a petty knife the blade is perfect for me. The tip is sharpened for things like superfine dicing of garlic and the blade can rock but also chop flat. Perfect solution for the in between paring,and gyuto zone,although in a pinch it can work as either.Great all purpose knife in the 150mm range. R
The answer so-far is "incredibly well". Prior to this knife,the highest performance utility knife I ever used was a Misono UX-10 150mm. Now,I still consider that Misono one the highest performance blades I’ve ever used,and I still reach for it,but this little Kurouchi blade is easily it’s equal.
So far,I have not really re-sharpened it. I have only stropped it on balsa wood. So far that is more than enough.
This little beast slices the heads off hard garlic cloves with the greatest of easy,slays bell peppers like it was made for the task,and cuts tomatoes to bits,even when they have a tough skin and mushy insides. This is a super utility knife.
With that said,I am looking forward to the day when I do a full re-sharpening of this knife. The edge is not mirror polished,and suspect that means I can improve it somewhat. It may actually become better than the Misono on that day. Until that moment,I would say they are both equally effect knives.
I use a Moritaka 210mm Gyuto for prepping and this petty is great to switch over when I’m on the line. It catches the eye and works well.
Thank you,thank you.

On my first trip to Japan I visited Mr. Kenishi Shiraki who at the time was considered one of the top blacksmiths in Japan. During my visit I met a young apprentice named Satoshi Nakagawa who had been working with Shiraki san for a couple of years. Now Mr. Shiraki has retired and Nakagawa san has taken over the business and is now a master smith in his own right. He is one of the few blacksmiths that are doing honyaki blades which are very difficult to forge out of a single piece of carbon steel.

This blade is made with Blue #1 steel and hand-made damascus reactive cladding. It's sharpened by one of the best blade grinders we know if named Myojin san.

Does tend to build a thick slurry if not kept watered during sharpening but this doesn’t detract from its performance.
Dishing is minimal since the stone is so hard many high grit stones are soft it also means that you can work quickly on it without fear of cutting into it .
Well worth the money especially from CKTG.
This stone is not messy,produces a matte finish,and enables a 1000 grit stone to clean up the grind marks quite easily. If you’re looking for fast working,long lasting,and a lot less messy stone,the Chosera 400 is the stone to get. I’m amazed no one else has commented. This stone ROCKS!

The Rust Eraser is a soft and flexible block, 50mm x 40mm x 20mm (2" x 1-1/2" x 3/4") in size. Similar in consistency to a pencil eraser, the alumina abrasive is distributed throughout the entire thickness of the block, so fresh grit is exposed as it wears. The 400 grit fine abrasive quickly removes rust. It can be used dry or with a little water.||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|naruer||item-1||solidtemplate||rustremovers||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/naniwa-rust-eraser-144.png||||||Naniwa Rust Eraser||A-903||specials > linecooks > shac > rustremovers > ||Resources > For Professionals > Sharpening Accessories > Rust Removers > ||7.990||7.990 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||The Naniwa rust remover will make quick work of minor rust spots on your kitchen knives.

Employing a new resin bonding method, these stones have a higher grit concentration and thus provide a fast, efficient and smooth sharpening process.
Thousands of people have learned to sharpen with these excellent stones and continue to enjoy the results they give. With their slightly softer qualities they are one of the easiest stones to learn to sharpen on and should provide you with years of productive use. The extra thickness of the new Super Stone aids in its stability and long life. Stone measures 210mm x 70mm x 20mm. Naniwa changed the packaging and model number on these stones in 2015.
Do not forget that these are true splash and go stones that should not be soaked at all.
These stones are made using a resin bond method, which yields a higher quality stone than the old baked method used with cheaper stones. It offers almost all of the performance of the much more expensive and fragile magnesia-based stones but at a fraction of the cost. Also, a great benefit of this method is that the stones do not require soaking in water prior to use (in fact, they should never be soaked). A quick spray or splash of water is all that is needed and you're ready to go.
This stone is extremely fine, just slightly more so than the 8,000. Your personal preferences and knife types will be the deciding factor as to which is better suited to your needs.
This Naniwa Super 10,000 stone loads up quickly and is used to give a knife a final polished edge. It makes a perfect finishing stone for the best Japanese stainless or carbon steel knives or for a high quality European knife where you want a super fine, smooth mirror-like edge.||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/na.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|na12grsu||item-1||solidtemplate||higrst3||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/naniwa-12000-grit-superstone-no-base-2cm-70.png||||||Naniwa Super Stone 12,000 ||S2-491||specials > linecooks > sharpening-stones > shglkachst > higrst3 > ||Resources > For Professionals > Sharpening Stones > All Sharpening Stones by Grit > High Grit Stones 3,000-30,000 > ||83.200||83.200 ||||||
The ceramic compounds used to manufacture these Super Stones are also of very high quality, and so they strike a great balance between their ability to polish a super fine edge without too much work while still being long-lasting and strong. They tend to sit on the softer side of stones available. These are truly excellent sharpening stones, suitable for any pro or serious home chef.
Overall size is also a feature, as smaller stones are more difficult to work with. It's nice to have the extra surface area when sharpening a santoku or chef's knife.
The 12,000 Super Stone occupies the high end of the grit range of this line and is one of the finest polishing stones available. It will be the final stone you use to obtain that perfect mirror edge.

This 2,000 grit stone is fine enough for many sharpening applications. The Naniwa Super stone will leave your knife with an edge better than most factory edges. At this grit size, this stone is considerably finer than any stones marked “fine” that you will find in most outlets.
Each stone measures 210 mm x 70 mm x 20 mm (8.25” long, 2.75” wide and 0.75” thick). The stone is certainly thick enough to provide many years of sharpening.
We at CKTG are happy to be the only US distributor of Naniwa Super Stones that come in the larger 20 mm thickness without bases.

The Naniwa 3,000 Super Stone makes for a great final stone—a perfect step up from the 1,000 grit stone. It is also fine enough to be used prior to using a ultra fine 8,000 or 10,000 grit polishing stone.
For those seeking a silkier edge for their Western style knives, the Naniwa Super Stone 3,000 makes the perfect finishing stone. If you are sharpening Japanese knives, this stone will reduce your sharpening time when you move on to finer grit stones. This stone loads up very quickly and produces ultra smooth results.
If you are considering purchasing a set of Japanese waterstones, we highly recommend the Naniwa Super Stones as a great place to start your sharpening odyssey.
Do not forget that these are true splash-and-go type stones and must not be soaked under any circumstances. Just apply a slight sprinkle of water and you are ready to create that super edge you’ve been dreaming about!

Unlike some of the other resin based stones on the market, the Naniwa Super Stones will stay flat for a reasonable amount of use, but are soft enough to be easily flattened by traditional flattening stones or diamond plates. Another great advantage to these stones is that their abrasive is formulated so that it easily breaks down in use to give a very smooth sharpening gradient.
The stones are 20 mm thick and do not come on a solid plastic base. They are a US exclusive CKTG item. At 0.75” thick, these stones will last for years of average use.

The Nano Hone system was developed by Hap Stanley, who believes that the flatter the stone the more efficient and effective the sharpening. Seeking to maximize this ideal situation, Hap has engineered a range of stones, flattening plates, and accessories that can take care of almost every sharpening need with precision and ease.
The stone is intended for use with the Stone Stage holder which features two pins that locate the stone and plate firmly to the base.

He's a master smith with excellent skills and his knives have a reputation of high cutting performance. This line features SG2 stainless steel that takes an outstanding edge and holds it well. Because the knives have steep edges we recommend care when cutting and do not cut hard items like bones or frozen food or stalks and other hard items or else you can chip the knife. If you treat it with care you'll be rewarded with a knife that will cut effortlessly.
I’m now able to put a super sharp,polished edge on any knife with this stone. I’ve gotten my best results on high carbon steel blades.
This stone is really HEAVY. It cuts very smoothly. I haven’t noticed any dishing of the stone,probably because its so dense and hard. I now wish I’d gotten this stone a long time ago. I don’t think you can go wrong with this one.
My Ohira Tomae (YMMV) produces mud like a King 1000 yet gives a much finer edge.
If you’re as confused as I was about Japanese water stones,remember you can trust Mark. He told me that if I was only buying one,this is the stone to buy and he was right. What has really pulled me into the culture of using these stones is not that they produce a fine edge,they do,or that the response between stone and knife is more pleasing than with man-made stones,it is how little water I need. I can sit at the kitchen table with the surface of the stone coated in water and sharpen my knife(s) without adding any additional water. It’s like having WiFi for water stones,“I’m free form standing at the sink”. Thank you Mark for importing high quality water stones.

His original efforts as a blacksmith were aimed at making gardening tools such as sickles, hedge shears, and the like. However, in recent years, he has started to produce unique kitchen knives including his great looking Takobiki and this interesting tall nakiri. He works in his small shop located in one of the epicenters of Japanese knives, the Takefu Village Cooperative factory in Echizen. Okada-san carries the title of Dentoukougeishi (Traditional Craftsman) which is the Accreditation Examination conducted by the Traditional Crafts Industry Promotion Association Foundation.
The recent interest in Chinese cleavers and nakiris has spawned a breed of cross pollinated blades called tall nakiris. These hybrid designs feature the general profile and thin grinds of a nakiri but with the tall blade height associated with the cleaver. These are multi-tasking blades that will especially appeal to users with big hands, or a simple desire for a taller blade. It also makes food scooping a breeze. So while it resembles a cleaver, it is more of a nakiri in terms of grinds and profile. Also, like normal nakiri blades it is very flat along the edge.
The knife is fashioned from Blue #2 carbon steel that has been hammer forged with a stainless steel cladding in the san-mai style. The spine is quite robust with a nice convex grind down to the very thin edge. It has a rustic kurouchi finish which works well with a blade of this style.
We asked him to follow his popular Takohiki knives with a standard gyuto and here is the result. This is a double-edged gyuto.
We asked him to follow his popular Takohiki knives with a standard gyuto and here is the result. This is a double-edged gyuto.
His idea is, instead of making similar knives to other knife blacksmiths, he wants to make something unique as per attached photos. Tako means Octopus in Japanese and this is a double-edged sujihiki that is excellent at carving and cutting tough things like Octopus. The swoop of the blade is reminiscent of a sword. He achieves this effect in the same way as swordmakers do, by quenching the blade in water.
His idea is, instead of making similar knives to other knife blacksmiths, he wants to make something unique as per attached photos. Tako means "octopus" in Japanese and this is a double-edged sujihiki that is excellent at carving and cutting tough things like octopus. The swoop of the blade is reminiscent of a sword. He achieves this effect in the same way as swordmakers do, by quenching the blade in water. The knife now comes with a nice upgraded rosewood D-shaped handle.
Okada-san works in his small shop located in one of the epicenters of Japanese knives, the Takefu Village Cooperative factory in Echizen. He started blacksmithing many years ago making blades for farming and gardening use such as sickles and shears. Now he is expanding into the kitchen knife arena with some really unique, fun, and interesting knives.
Tako means octopus in Japanese and takobiki knives are designed to cut these mollusks efficiently and easily. The Okada takobiki is unusual in that it is a double-edged blade as opposed to the usual single grind. As such it is more sujihiki than takobiki and as such somewhat easier to maintain.
The swoop of the blade is called the sari and it is one of the features of Katana, Wakizashi, and other Japanese swords. Okada-san achieves this bend in the traditional way, by using different compositions of clay on the blade when the final heat treat is made. On quenching this causes the blade to curve due to the difference in densities of the micro-structures in the steel.
This is a very precise and difficult operation that Okada-san achieves with perfection. We are really excited about these limited edition knives, full of character, originality, and artisanship of a high order. Not bad for a guy who used to make farm tools!
Okeya-San operates a small blacksmith shop with his son, following on his grandfather’s tradition of making small Japanese blades called kogatanas. These are small multi-purpose utility knives good for all kinds of cutting and whittling. Okeya has recently expanded their line into more common kitchen knives like gyutos and santokus. The knife featured here is a great example of this new era in their business.
Bunka-style knives are versatile and easy-to-use kitchen utensils. Their short length and tanto-style tip make them useful at cutting smaller ingredients and prepping intricate morsels and garnishes. The relatively tall blade height offers extra hand clearance and control.
Okeya-san fashions the blade from the ubiquitous Blue #2 carbon steel. It is a well-loved and highly practical alloy for use in kitchen knives. Yes, it’s reactive. But care with cleaning and drying will keep that under control. The steel takes a very sharp edge and keeps it through long sessions. It is also an easy steel to sharpen. Given the level of fit and finish and the use of good materials this knife is a bit of a bargain.
If you have ever felt the need to try something outside of the usual chef knife/gyuto styles then this is a great opportunity to do so without breaking the bank.
The opening/closing action is smooth and positive. The wood handle is well finished. The blade is especially noteworthy, being made from the highly regarded Hitachi Blue #2 carbon steel. This is a most unusual choice for such a utilitarian knife, but a very welcome and intriguing one! It is a single bevel blade with a very unusual hammered pattern.
It is difficult to explain the multipurpose nature of the Okeya Folding Kogatana. But once you get your hands on one you will be surprised at how the versatility, strength, and cutting ability of this fun knife results in it being one of your go to kitchen and general home tools.
The Okeya Folding Kogatana would make a perfect gift for the knife lover in your life.
The Okeya Blue #2 Gyuto 210mm is a fine example of their talents. It is a medium-sized blade made from the ever-popular Aogami 2 carbon steel. It has a stainless steel cladding which is given a very attractive hammer finish, almost like a nashiji look. Some nicely done hand-chiseled kanji on one side of the blade is coupled together with some stamped figures on the back. The core steel is hardened to 60 HRC. The edge is made with symmetrical 50/50 grind.
A simple octagonal walnut and pakka wood handle match the looks perfectly and give this very well priced knife an up-market look and feel.
The main function of a Honesuki knife is to part out poultry. It is adept at this task because of its stiff and robust triangular blade. The pointed tip is perfect for getting into the joints of birds but not for breaking bones. That is a job better served by a cleaver.
Okeya is a small shop located in Miki, Japan. It is run by a father and son team who produce highly functional kitchen knives at really attractive prices. They use high-quality materials, in this case Hitachi Blue #2 steel. The core steel is hardened to 60 HRC. The Aogami inner core (hagane) is then covered with a layer of softer stainless steel to protect and add strength. This outer layer (jigane) is given a very nice tsuchime finish.
Honesuki blades are often single ground, but in the case of the Okeya, it is a double-sided blade and is thus useful to both left and right-handed users. Being ground on both sides, it is also much easier to sharpen.
The blade is mated to a nice walnut octagonal handle with black pakka wood ferrule. If you are a professional chef who processes a lot of poultry or other birds, a honesuke really should be in your knife roll. For a home cook who even once in a while parts out birds, the price of this great little blade is low enough to make the purchase well worth while.
This version, made by the father and son team at Okeya, adheres to the design principles of this style of blade, but unlike many honesukis, this has a double-sided 50/50 edge. The knife is made with a core of Aogami 2, or Blue #2 steel. This high-carbon steel is well-liked in the knife world. It is a steel that takes a very sharp edge and is quite easy to sharpen. The core steel is hardened to 60 HRC. The inner core is clad with stainless steel for easy care. This layer is given a very attractive tsuchime finish. It requires care with cleaning and drying between uses.
The good looking blade is enhanced with some nicely executed hand chiseled kanji on one side of the blade together with some stamped figures on the back. The blade is attached to a very good looking Western style rosewood handle.
We are really pleased with the new offerings coming out of the small blacksmith shop operated by Okeya-san and his son. They have recently moved into the kitchen knife world having worked almost exclusively on kogatana blades. These are multi-purpose blades used for all kinds of cutting and whittling tasks. This new nakiri is another example of how well they have managed the transition.
Nakiri knives are made to cut and slice vegetables: short, thin, square, with a very flat profile. You need to be comfortable using a tall knife, but if you are, you will find these knives to be excellent for their given task.
These knives are fashioned from the ever-popular Blue #2 steel, hardened to 60HRC, which is clad with a soft stainless for durability and added strength. The outer layer is treated to a nice-looking finish rather reminiscent of a nashiji, or pear skin, look. Some really nice kanji script adds to the aesthetic really well.
Finally, a traditional octagonal walnut and pakka wood handle is added to complement the blade and give the knife a very up market look.
The father and son team operating the small Okeya blacksmith shop has been making kogatana blades for decades. They have recently branched out into the world of kitchen knives with a line of really well-made Blue #2 knives with stainless cladding for easy care.
The santoku featured here is a fairly standard blade in terms of dimensions. With 166mm in length and a blade height of 46mm, it is squarely in the middle of popular santoku sizes. These are versatile blades that find favor in many homes and professional environments. Their shorter length makes them easy to handle and require less board cutting space. It is quite light in weight and nicely thin at the spine. It thins out at the end for enhanced intricate cutting abilities. Like most santoku knives, it has a well-shaped belly that makes rocking-style cuts a breeze. The double symmetrical bevel is practical for left and right-handed users.
The blade is made from Blue #2 as the core with a soft stainless steel cladding. This jigane is treated to a really good looking nashiji style finish which aids with food release while adding a nice look. This is further enhanced by the addition of some deeply chiseled kanji script. The blade is complemented by a nice traditional octagonal handle made from oak with an attractive burnt finish.
The knife is fairly light for its size and has a moderate spine thickness, which stays fairly consistent all the way to the beginning of the reverse tanto tip. It has an average edge out of the box so we recommend a trip to your favorite stones to perfect its cutting abilities. When you do you will be very pleased with how sharp this steel can get. The stiff blade is very agile and easy to use as a rocker or push cutter. The reverse tanto tip affords the user an ability to take on delicate tasks like garnish preparation and other intricate cuts.
The bunka is gaining in popularity in the West for good reason. This knife is a great way to experience the blade style in an easy to maintain and affordable package. It comes with a traditional octagonal walnut handle with a black pakka wood ferrule.
The construction is a hammer forged san-mai style cladding of Ginsan steel hagane with a soft stainless steel jigane. The cladding then receives a really great looking pebble finish. Talk about character! The simple oval ho wood handle mates perfectly with the blade and allows the knife to be sold at a super low price.
Ginsan steel is a great alloy for knives, given its highly stainless and tough overall characteristics. It is also known as Silver 3, and is used in many high end knife lines including Suisin, Sukenari, and Konosuke. It’s amazing that the artisans at Okeya can come up with a knife using such high end materials, great looks, and grinds at such bargain prices. We love it, and think you will too.
The core steel is Ginsan stainless steel. It is also known as G3 or Silver 3. It is one of the better stainless steels used in knife making being both very stain resistant and possessing an ability to hold a great edge. It is very fine grained so taking it to the stones is a task that is fairly easy and results in an edge that is screaming sharp.
The knife is very light, weighing in at a mere 2.6 ounces. But for all its light weight it has a stiff and resilient blade. The blade is quite thin at the heel and it stays that way to the beginning of the tip. The inner core is clad with a softer stainless steel to protect and strengthen it. That layer is then given a hammered finish which is more decoration than functional. There is also some really nice hand chiseled kanji applied to the blade face—a nice touch at this price point. A low key but well-made rosewood handle completes this high value package.
In true deba fashion, the blade is a single-sided grind made specifically for parting out fish. Deba knives are one of the three traditional blades used in Japanese professional kitchens, along with the yanagiba and usuba.

The core steel used in this blade is Ginsan stainless steel, hardened to about 61 HRC. It is clad with a soft steel to both reduce weight and add overall strength to the inner core. The front cladding is given a good looking tsuchime hammered finish. This is a single bevel knife that is only applicable to right-handed users.
The funayuki is a multi-purpose knife that originally found use on fishing boats. Recently the name has been attached to a broader range of blades that share a commonality in a flat profile, short length, and very little belly. They can be either single- or double-beveled.
The shorter length of this example makes it a perfect complement to a longer gyuto or chef’s knife. It is useful in smaller spaces and tighter places. As with all the knives we carry from Okeya, affordability trumps finish, so the handle is a very simple ho wood and plastic construction, while the spine and choil areas are not polished like more expensive blades. For the money, however, this is a good little performer made from a high quality steel with great cutting abilities and fun looks.

The Okeya Deba 150mm Double Edge is a two-sided version of their traditional single-bevel deba. It is constructed from White #2 steel with a softer iron outer cladding. White #2, or Shirogami 2, is a very popular steel in the knife world. It is known for its high purity and thus ability to take a very sharp edge. It doesn’t have the edge retention of some other alloys but it is easy to sharpen when needed. Of course its purity also means it is quite reactive, so care needs to be taken with cleaning and drying the blade between and after use. The jigane, or outer layer, is given a very attractive hammered finish that resembles a nashiji, or pear skin, texture.
This is a classic deba blade but with a twist: it is ground on two sides, unlike the traditional knife that is single sided. This makes it good for both left- and right-handed users. Deba knives are used mainly to fillet fish and this will do a wonderful job of that task, but because of its two-sided grind it can be used like a mini gyuto or santoku knife.
These are really well made knives at a super price, and we are very happy to be able to offer them exclusively in the USA to our customers.
Okeya-san is in his mid-40s, and, together with his son, they have branched out into the big world of Japanese kitchen knives. He told us that his current wish is to expand the business by adding more kitchen knives like gyutos, santokus, and nakiris.
Eel knives come in many different shapes, reflecting the many ways the fish is processed. The Okeya White #2 Eel Knife is a regional rendition of this knife that does not feature the classic pointed tanto tip that Kanto style Unagisaki Hocho knives are famous for. Kansai region chefs cut the eel from the softer side of the fish so that the blade shape does not need a tapered point. This style of knife is known as a Unagisaki Nagoyagata. In this style, the blade is slim and rectangular. The corner is rounded so as not to damage the eel when you fillet it. The handle is relatively long especially compared to Edo style knives.
These knives are made from the ever popular Shirogami #2 steel, better known as White #2. It is hardened to a Rockwell rating of 60 and then clad using the san-mai method of awase. The stainless cladding is given an ornate and good looking finish called tsuchime. Of course, as a carbon steel edged blade, this knife needs careful cleaning and drying after use.
Bunka style knives are versatile and easy to use kitchen utensils. Their short length and tanto-style tip makes them really useful at cutting smaller ingredients and prepping intricate morsels and garnishes. The relatively tall blade height offers extra hand clearance and control.
Okeya fashions the blade from White Paper #2 carbon steel. It is a well-liked and highly touted alloy for use in a variety kitchen and sporting knives. It’s a reactive steel so care with cleaning and drying is needed to keep that under control. The Shirogami 2 steel takes a very good edge and holds it through long prep sessions. It is also an easy steel to sharpen. Given the level of fit and finish and the use of good materials this knife is a quite a bargain.
Many people are discovering the virtues of the versatile bunka. The shorter length and taller profile are slightly different from the usual chef knife or gyuto. The Okeya White #2 bunka is a great opportunity to try something new while keeping the bank balance in check!
The Okeya White #2 Hairline Gyuto 210mm is a beautiful example of their talents. It is a medium-sized blade made from the ever-popular Shirogami 2 carbon steel. It has a softer stainless steel cladding which is given a very attractive hairline/sand-blasted finish. The outer layer is hammer-forged to the inner steel using the san-mai method. The well-applied kanji on the blade add to the simple yet pleasing aesthetic. The core steel is hardened to 60 HRC. The edge is a symmetrical 50/50 grind. A simple oval wood handle matches the looks and balances perfectly.
This is a nicely crafted knife at a bargain price, perfect for home chefs, line cooks, or those looking to dip their toes into the Japanese kitchen knife waters.
Honesuki blades are sometimes single ground, but in the case of this knife, it is a double-sided blade. This makes it useful to both left- and right-handed users. Being double sided means it is also much easier to sharpen. The main function of a honesuki knife is to process poultry and other birds. It is perfect at this task because of its stiff and tough triangular shaped blade. The extremely pointed tip is ideal for getting into the joints of birds but not for breaking bones. You will need a cleaver for that task.
The blade is given a simple oval wood handle with plastic ferrule. Home cooks or professional chefs who processes poultry or other birds should have a honesuki in their knife quiver. The price of this great little blade is low enough to make the purchase well worthwhile.
The Okeya White #2 Hairline is a really nice petty made from the popular Shirogami #2 steel. It’s also known as White Paper #2, named for the paper the steel is wrapped in. It is hardened to a Rockwell rating of 60 and then hammer forged using the san-mai method of awasi. This clads the blade faces with a softer steel while leaving the edge and spine uncovered. The blade face is given a hairline finish. Of course, as a carbon steel blade, this knife needs careful cleaning and drying after use.
This is a normal sized petty with a finely pointed tip for getting into small places and making very fine cuts for garnishes. It comes with a simple oval wood handle. A really nice knife at a great price!
What we have here is a really nice petty made from the ever popular Shirogami #2 steel, better known as White #2. It is hardened to a Rockwell rating of 60 and then clad using the san-mai method of awasi. This entails covering the blade faces with a softer stainless steel while leaving the edge and spine uncovered. The cladding is then subjected to an ornate and good looking finishing technique called Tsuchime. Not only does this look great but it also aids in food release. Of course, as a carbon steel blade, this knife needs careful cleaning and drying after use.
The knife comes with a typical ho wood D shaped handle with resin ferrule that you would find in most kitchenware stores in Japan. All at a very nice price for a small blacksmith hand made knife!
The Okeya ko-deba is a super fun little knife that is adept at many tasks around the kitchen. It is a great knife for filleting smaller fish or boning poultry. It also serves well as a replacement for a tall petty.
The core steel used here is Shirogami 2, or White Paper #2, hardened to about 60HRC. It is covered with a soft iron to add strength and reduce weight. The outer cladding is given a good-looking hairline. The grind is very well executed with a lovely blade path leading to the double bevel edge.
The Okeya ko-deba comes with a very basic ho-wood handle and plastic ferrule.
Okeya-san's grandfather started producing what are called kogatanas 60 years ago and they made a nice small business out of it and eventually started making small cooking knives as well like the one you see here. The steel used is Hitachi White #2 with a nice soft iron cladding that has an interesting and attractive cladding on it. The back story on how I found this maker was that I visited a steel mill that produces clad steel for many industries and they had some of these knives in a display case. I asked what they were and was told they were made by a local blacksmith and they didn't have any accounts outside Japan. I thought they would be a nice addition to our store.

Today Okeya-san is producing small cooking knives too. He's in his mid 40s, and his son has just joined the business. He told us that his current wish is to expand the business more and more for his son and so he plans to add more kitchen knives like gyutos, santokus, and nakiris.
We love working with very small shops like this with multi generational family members producing the knives. We are proud to be the first and only company in the USA to buy and promote this family blacksmith shop. We will begin working on ordering knives and suggesting styles and sizes that our customers would like to see, with the hopes of keeping this family shop making knives for decades to come.
These knives are used as general purpose utility knives for working people on the go that need a blade for work or recreation. The construction is a hammer forged san-mai style cladding of Shirogami 2 steel hagane with a soft stainless steel jigane. The cladding then receives a really great looking pebble finish. Talk about character! The simple oval ho wood handle mates perfectly with the encluded saya for a mini katana sword-like feel at a super low price.
It’s amazing that the artisans at Okeya can come up with a knife using such high end materials, great looks, and grinds at such a bargain price. We love it, and think you will too.
Patriarch Okeya-San started his blacksmith shop many years ago to produce Kogatana blades. Kogatana are small knives used for woodworking and other cutting and whittling jobs. Wishing to expand the business, the Okeya clan recently moved into the world of kitchen knives. The Okeya line of kitchen knives seems to be growing every week and we are really pleased by the price/performance balance that the son and grandson team have managed to achieve. The knives are very simple but made with care and attention to the main purpose. Cutting stuff!
What we have here is a really nice petty made from the ever popular Shirogami #2 steel, better known as White #2. It is hardened to a Rockwell rating of 60 and then clad using the san-mai method of awasi. This entails covering the blade faces with a softer steel while leaving the edge and spine uncovered. The cladding is then subjected to a ornate and good looking finishing technique called Tsuchime. Not only does this look great but it also aids in food release. Of course, as a carbon steel blade, this knife needs careful cleaning and drying after use.
This is a typical petty in size with a nicely pointed tip for accessing small places and making very fine cuts for garnishes. It comes with a simple oval Ho wood handle, all at a very nice price!
We have looked high and low for a good knife that provides ease of use, comfort, and security in this task. Our search has taken us to Sakai City where we have commissioned a knife to fulfill these requirements.
The Kohetsu oyster knife is made from a durable and easy to maintain stainless steel. The blade shape is in the New Haven style which is wider and flatter than the Boston variety. The blade is coupled to a very well-made wood handle. The rounded smooth handle gives you a firm comfortable grip and good leverage. This handle will allow you to work longer into your session with less fatigue on your palm. The hand guard provides extra safety by keeping your hand from slipping forward and allows you to apply the additional pressure that may be needed to get into that shell.
If, like us, you are going to be opening a lot of oysters, you will be very glad you have this knife in your quiver of kitchen tools.

I've been "chasing the dragon" re sharpness ever since. In my pursuit of that elusive perfect edge I've come to use a variety of sharpening tools from powered gear for repairs and stock removal to Japanese water stones, both natural and synthetic, as well as a wide variety of abrasives and media. I've always been a natural geek and that extends to my sharpening; you could characterize my approach as a scientific one. And a pro kitchen is a great laboratory for finding what works and what doesn't. I've refined my techniques over the years based on my own experience and the feedback I get from those I sharpen for. To that end I've incorporated a lot of Hand American products into my routine, as well as the terrific products from our own "Mr. Wizard", Ken Schwartz.
The Addicts I sharpened were worked into shape with DMT Dia-Sharps, then sharpened on Shapton Pro and Chocera stones. I followed the stones by stropping on balsa wood and/or felt charged with Hand American chromium paste and Ken's 0.125 micron Cubic Boron Nitrate (CBN). I found that the 320 Shapton Pro and the 400 Chocera do a great job of removing the scratches left by the diamonds, prepping the bevel for an excellent finish & polish. The charged felt is great for deburring and the soft balsa gives a very minute micro-convex that extends the life of the edges a bit. The CBN gives that smooth-yet-bitey edge that sails through all the standard knife-geek tests while giving terrific real world kitchen performance.
I hope you enjoy the knives! And let me extend my humble thanks to Mark for allowing me to bring them to you.
use them in my culinary school for Fine dining class
The spoon bowl holds 2.5 tablespoons and it's 9 inches long. Once you try a good saucing spoon you won't want to be without it when working the line.

The gyuto is fitted with a beautiful rosewood wa octagonal handle. These knives don’t come along very often, so don’t delay if you wish to own a true masterpiece of the blacksmith's art. Please note that Saji San finishes these with a coarse grinding wheel so the blades have small scratches that are part of the finish. This is normal. Feel free to ask us for photos of you’re picky.
The blade shape is that of a typical petty. This one has a nice height in relation to its 150mm length offering a bit more finger clearance. The tip is nicely pointed resulting in a nimble but sure-footed knife. Form and function in perfect balance. This is a knife that could easily become an heirloom.
These amazing knives are constructed with a core of Aogami 2 steel which is clad with the damascus steel in the san-mai style. The inner core is obviously prone to corrosion at the edge if not dried and cleaned carefully.
At 180mm, this is a knife that works well for most people. The height of 50mm gives knuckle clearance as well as room for chopping. This is a big performer capable of taking on almost every normal kitchen cutting task. The shorter and lighter size of this knife gives it a nimble quality that feels fast and, dare we say it, more fun! Most vegetables or proteins can be processed with no problem using a blade this size.
In true Saji fashion the blade is coupled to a good quality rosewood octagonal handle. It also comes in a nice wooden box for storage.

But it is also a cutting champ in all regards. Saji san knows how to make a knife perform as well as it looks. This knife has a wonderful thin grind behind the edge which translates to amazing cutting ability. It has a deft feel and tall blade which endow the knife with a great deal of versatility.
Many western chefs and home cooks look to the santoku as their go-to blade for many general cutting tasks. We think the Saji Rainbow Damascus is a beautiful melding of form and function.

We have been working with a small, highly specialized blacksmith shop to manufacture these blades. After forging, they are sent to an expert knife sharpener for finishing, before the blades are finally passed on to a handle maker and engraver for those final operations.
All of the Sakai brand knives are single bevel and are intended for right-handed users. They have a convex front side and a concave back side and these types of knives are used primarily by professional cooks in Japan. This deba has a heavy, thick blade intended as a fish filleting knife. However, it can also serve as a poultry butcher knife. Its thickness, and obtuse angle on the back of the heel, allow it to cut off the heads of fish without damage. The rest of the blade is then used to ride against the fish bones, separating the fillet.
The Sakai Blue #2 Deba has an oval shaped ho wood handle with buffalo horn ferrule. It is supplied with a matching saya.
Usuba literally means "thin blade," which is required for cutting through firm vegetables without cracking them. Due to its height and straight edge, usuba are also used for specialized cuts such as katsuramuki (shaving a vegetable cylinder into a thin sheet). This particular knife shape is known as a Kamasaka Usuba.
The blade is made from Blue #2 carbon steel. The inner core steel takes and keeps a good edge and it is quite easy to sharpen. But do remember that this is a single bevel blade as so it is only suitable for righties!
The simple ho wood handle has a D-shaped profile and is attached to the blade with a buffalo horn ferrule. A really nice custom saya and pin complete the package.
We have this impressive line of blades made from the ubiquitous Aogami #2 carbon steel. It is one of the most popular metals used in the manufacture of high-quality Japanese kitchen knives. Renowned for taking and holding a very sharp edge, it is also fairly reactive, so you must take care to clean and dry this knife regularly while using, and absolutely before storing.
The blade construction is a san-mai cladding with a soft iron outer layer. This protects the inner core, increases lightness and allows for an amount of shock resistance. The blade has a single edge designed for use by right-handed chefs only. It is given a lovely polish above the primary bevel and a fine satin finish up to the shinogi and the revealed inner core cutting edge. It is a beautiful knife both inside and out! A nicely made oval ho wood handle with buffalo horn ferrule completes this simple and traditional work of the blacksmith art.
Debas run the gamut of lengths from about 100mm to as big as 210mm and over. Obviously one of the criteria behind the length choice is the size of fish being processed. They are very stiff and heavy in their construction with a thick spine and a tallish profile. The single bevel design results in an edge that is very acute and sharp. Single bevel blades require knowledge of sharpening and use that is outside what's required for regular two-sided blades.
The blacksmith, fashions this beautiful example from Blue #2 carbon steel. He uses the Ni-Mai method of awase to clad the blade in a soft iron to protect and strengthen the inner core, or hagane. The result is a strong and hardy blade that needs care in daily use due to its reactive nature. The cladding is polished on the upper surface. The primary grind area is given a lovely satin finish which contrasts beautifully with the upper blade and exposed jigane. Some of the nicest hand-chiseled kanji elements we have seen adorn the front of the blade.
This is a wonderful example of the deba breed which will find favor with the most discriminating user or collector.
The blue Aogami #2 steel is clad on the front side with a soft iron layer. Of course, it is a reactive blade so it needs care and attention to keep it dry. The back side is slightly concave (ura-suki). The front side has a single grind from the shinogi line to the edge. The finish is exemplary and the look is enhanced with some fine chiseled kanji script on the front.
This is a stunning knife and one of the last of the breed. If you have ever wanted a knife with true “soul” the Sakai Takayuki Blue #2 Deba is one such blade. Please note there is shrink wrap on the handle pictured.
The yanagiba is such a specialized knife that by using different cutting techniques the chef can enhance and change the visual characteristics and flavors of the fish. There are several styles of fish slicers employed by sushi chefs but the classic yanagi is the most favored. Yanagibas are long knives and usually do not come much shorter than 270mm. This ensures that the slice is made in one single stroke. Sawing is simply not acceptable in the preparation of sushi.
This is a long knife and you need to be sure of the work area size before considering anything longer. It is hand-fashioned from Blue Paper #2 steel with a ni-mai awase cladding (a single sided layer of iron). This is a gorgeous knife made better by the addition of a finely finished ebony handle and buffalo horn ferrule. Please note the attractive gapped machi.

The deba knife is a heavy, thick blade originally intended as a fish filleting knife. It can also serve as a poultry butcher knife. Along with the usuba and yanagiba, it is one of the trinity of Japanese kitchen knives. The deba first appeared during the Edo period in Sakai. It is designed to behead and fillet fish. Its thickness and obtuse angle on the back of the heel allow it to cut off the heads of fish without damage. The rest of the blade is then used to ride against the fish bones, separating the fillet.

Generally speaking, the funayuki blade is more pointed with a flatter belly than you would find on a regular gyuto. The pointed tip and slightly smaller blade area make for a lighter and more agile knife. It is a great all-around knife, especially for those preferring a push/pull cutting action. This particular funayuki remains true to the original seafood oriented design which makes it particularly adept at breaking down fish, much like a deba. A saya is included.
All of the knives in this collection are single-bevel style blades and are thus only fit for use by right-handed users.

Kiritsuke knives are a hybrid design combining features of Japanese usubas and yanagibas. The shape and size of a kiritsuke result in a knife with a dual personality. It can be used like a usuba for the cutting of vegetables or as a yanagiba to slice raw fish. But it should be noted that these types of knives require skill to use effectively and are therefore usually reserved for executive chefs in Japanese kitchens.

Our blacksmith in Sakai City forges these blades from an Ironclad Shirogami White #2 steel. He grinds the backside with a very slight concave profile and then gives the front side a single convex bevel from about halfway down the blade. This bevel is then finished with a very small micro bevel at the edge.
Each blade is fitted with a traditional Ho wood oval handle with a buffalo horn ferrule. A custom wood saya and pin are included. The fit and finish of these knives is first-rate and we are proud to be able to add this traditional carbon steel Japanese knife line to our Richmond Sakai brand.

The simple ho wood handle has a D-shaped profile and is attached to the blade with a buffalo horn ferrule. A really nice custom saya and pin complete the package.
The yanagiba is in of the three basic Japanese knife types. The other two are the Deba and the Usuba. The three knife types enable the experienced chef to process virtually every normal ingredient using most of acknowledged cutting styles. Of course, the yanagiba is the slicer of the group. It's primary function is to slice fish. This ingredient is treated with reverence in Japan and the processing of it is an art learned over many years.
The reason yanagiba blades are so long is so that a slice is made with one continuous stroke. No pressure is required if the knife is well made and perfectly sharp. The blade weight and grind will cut through the flesh without damaging the cellular structure or imparting additional textures or other flavors to this noble ingredient.
We are very pleased to report that this fine yanagiba, made in Sakai, is such an implement. The grind on the knife is extremely well executed as is the overall fit and finish of the blade and handle. It is made from the popular steel called White #2. This is a very good steel for knives and it is rightfully regarded as both durable and easy to sharpen. It is covered with a soft iron cladding, or Jigane. This imparts strength to the blade while reducing the weight. It also makes the knife easier to manufacture over single steel types.
This is a yanagiba that falls on the short end of the scale and as such is a great choice for home chefs or professionals needing a blade that can be used in more confined spaces. A lovely traditional D-shaped Ho wood handle is coupled to a Buffalo horn ferrule. A classic touch for a classic blade. The knife is supplied with a saya.
The Sakai White #2 Yanagiba 240mm is made in one of the most famous knife making regions in Japan. The city and surrounding area is full of small and medium sized blacksmith shops as well as other support facilities specializing in knife sharpening, handle making and finishing. It is a fascinating symbiosis of multiple small family run businesses that produce some of the finest blades in the world.
The Sakai White #2 Yanagiba 240mm is one result of this intriguing collaborative effort. It is fashioned from the ubiquitous White #2 steel which is hammer forged using the traditional san-mai cladding technique. The outer layer is a soft iron which aids with strength, durability and lightness. As with all yanagiba knives, it is single bevelled with a slightly concave back side.
The look is as traditional as it gets: simple, elegant and functional. The finish and aesthetic are likewise traditional and quite lovely. The upper blade face is slightly polished with the secondary face receiving a matte finish. This transitions into the visible inner core resulting in a knife of simple beauty. The finely engraved kanji script and traditional Ho wood handle, with buffalo horn ferrule, complete this great looking picture. The knife comes complete with a matching saya.

The Sakai Yanagiba blade is angled from one side only, with the other side of the blade being almost flat (slight concave profile). This allows for great control of the blade angle needed in the delicate cutting of the fish. It also allows for ease of sharpening. These knives are for right-handed users as the blade is ground only on the right side (front face).
We have these lovely Yanagibas made out of a core Shirogami White #2 steel covered with soft iron laminate. The Shirogami is heat treated to 61 Rockwell. The steel is reactive so must be kept perfectly clean and dry between uses. The fit and finish are of a very high standard which together with the lovely look of the blade and handle result in a high quality, classic Yanagiba at a very competitive price. They come with a lovely ho wood custom saya.
The blade is formed from a combination of two different steels, a softer outer jacket of steel wrapped around an inner core of harder steel. In this case, a core of Hitachi White #2 is clad with iron to protect and strengthen the core. This is a reactive blade that requires complete drying and cleaning after use.
This is a no frills knife with great fit and finish. A simple but comfortable Ho wood oval handle is matched to a buffalo horn ferrule. A matching custom saya and pin are provided to protect the blade. While yanagis are used mainly for sushi and fish slicing, many chefs are now using them for other slicing purposes.

Here is a video showing how Yuuka san did the original block print for us:
Can be used wet or dry; don't use on plated or painted surfaces. Test on an inconspicuous area before use.
These stones cut very quickly, wear out slowly, and are very easy to use since they require only a small splash of water to get started. The 1k and 4k combination is close enough together to make the transition between them fast and easy.
The set also includes a stone holder to give added knuckle clearance while sharpening and providing a solid, nonslip base. The set also includes a hard felt block for burr removal to ensure the edge is as perfect as possible.
The 20x loupe allows new sharpeners to inspect the quality of their edges visually.
Lastly, we have included some Angle Guide Stars so you can easily see the angle you want to sharpen at.
This Diamond Lapping Plate from Shapton is precision made with a high level of quality control to ensure the plate is as flat as possible. The plate is constructed of glass with diamond aggregate embedded in the glass. To use the lapping plate simply wet the plate and stone with a splash of water then either rub the stone on the lapping plate or vice-versa using a combination of figure-8 motions and/or scrubbing motions in alternating directions.

Great Product.
The stone cuts very quickly, making sharpening a pleasure rather than a chore, and wears very slowly, making for a long stone life. The edge off the Shapton Glass 1k is a great toothy edge for kitchen applications or a great stepping off point for the higher levels of refinement most high-quality cutlery is capable of taking. While the Shapton Glass 1k is without a doubt a premium stone, the price tag is very reasonable, making it a great value as well as a great performer. These stones are bonded to tempered glass and measure 210mm × 70mm × 11mm (8 1/4" × 2 3/4" × 7/16") with 5mm of usable abrasive thickness. Each stone weighs about 14 oz (400g).
I immediately unwrapped it. It was sealed tight and new in from the factory,very professional looking.
The stone is nice and wide. This is my first Shapton and it did not disappoint!
Took my knife from 220,to 750,soft/hard Arkansas. It was already a hair shaver,but I continued on to 6,000 and 12,000 for the scary sharp edge that I must have.
If you don’t have a good course stone,I recommend this,especially for the price. Quality Quality.
The Shapton Pro 320 grit stone is quite versatile as it can be used for moderate repair work and is also a great grit for setting a new edge bevel or starting a progression. The stone cuts fast and is a logical option for edge setting on harder steels like Powder Metal variants. These stones measure 8.25” x 2.75” each.

Providing a higher level of refinement than the 5000 grit, the Shapton Pro 8000 grit is another popular choice for finishing work on kitchen cutlery and a progression mid-point for straight razors. This level of grit can also be used in edge-trailing, stropping applications for knife maintenance. These stones measure 8.25” x 2.75” each.

One of the most highly regarded series of synthetic stones on the market, the Shapton Professional line is designed with speed and ease of use in mind. The stones cut very quickly and require no soaking, simply splash and go. Combined with very good feedback, high levels of refinement at their given grit rating, and resistance to wear and dishing, it is no wonder Shapton Pro stones are some of our top sellers. Shapton includes a very handy case with each stone that can double as a stone holder.
The 1000 Grit Pro is considered medium grit and is an excellent stone to start most maintenance edge work with and is also an indispensable transition stone between edge setting and polishing grits in a full progression.

The 1500 grit Shapton Pro is a user favorite in kitchen knife progressions. Many experienced sharpeners enjoy this stone at the end of a full progression, just prior to a higher grit finishing work. While results will vary by steel and the treatment that the steel receives, the 1500 grit Shapton Pro is usually described as providing the right balance of refinement and tooth for most kitchen applications. These stones measure 8.25” x 2.75” each.

The Shapton Pro 5000 grit stone is an excellent choice as a finishing stone while sharpening kitchen knives or a transition stone during a razor progression. Like the rest of the series, this stone comes with a slotted storage case for uniform drying which also doubles as a stone holder. These stones measure 8.25” x 2.75” each.

Note: Although I do used these on kitchen blades,I used them primarily to reprofile and recondition my outdoor scandi and convex ground knives.
The Shapton Pro 12K grit stone will provide a highly refined, mirror finish to most edges. This stone will be most appropriate for use on razors or for very, very light finishing applications on certain kitchen steels. These stones measure 8.25” x 2.75” each.

It is here that he developed his very unique line of AS knives. His knives are endowed with a beautifully formed profile and razor-sharp cutting edge. The fit and finish are also of the very highest standards.
The blade is made with an inner core of Aogami Super steel, clad with a softer stainless steel that enhances the strength and durability of this nimble knife. This knife is almost like a scaled down version of his KS clone, and as such boasts a slim profile, shorter blade height and a thin, finely crafted tip. The grinds are really well executed and his attention to details in design and construction are what we love to see in a blacksmith’s work.
The Shibata AS Gyuto is an easy-to-maintain and sharpen blade. It will hold its super fine edge through a hard day's prep work or for weeks in a home setting. Each knife comes with a very well-made octagonal handle with pakka wood ferrule.
The result is a wonderfully light and balanced blade. Shibata-san is a master sharpener and these knives are hair-splitting sharp out of the box. Plus, with this excellent steel, they'll hold that edge for a long time. The core steel is covered with a softer stainless steel cladding which adds to the strength and durability of the blade. The fine-looking blade is augmented with an equally well-executed octagonal handle.
This is certainly the case with this lovely little petty knife. Everything about it screams quality, combined with purity of form and function. The blade is made with an inner core of Aogami Super steel, clad with a softer stainless steel that enhances the strength and durability of this nimble blade.
The Shibata AS Petty is a beautiful workhorse, both in terms of versatility and durability. It is a very thin blade which results in a light and responsive knife. Small ingredients, herbs, filleting jobs, and intricate food preps will be handled with the utmost control. It is an easy to maintain and sharpen blade. It will hold its super fine edge through a hard day's prep work or for weeks in a home setting.
Each knife comes with a very well-made octagonal handle with pakka wood ferrule.
The Shibata AS Santoku is made from Aogami Super steel with a soft stainless steel cladding that has a really nice, smooth finish. Shibata-san hammer forges these knives using the san-mai technique of laminating. San-mai roughly translates to three flat objects. The outer layer, or jigane, is only applied to each blade face. It does not wrap over the spine. While the hagane (inner core) is reactive, the stainless cladding reduces the work needed to maintain the blade and prevent corrosion.
The santoku knife is probably the Japanese knife that is most established in the western marketplace. Santoku knives are prized for their handy, user friendly size and chef knife versatility. These particular knives are endowed with a beautifully formed profile and razor sharp cutting edge. The fit and finish are also of the very highest standards.
Lest we forget, this knife caries all of the outstanding attributes that Shibata-san endows in his knives, in this case a beautifully executed grind and wonderful behind the edge thinness. Lastly, the uniqueness of the knife is further enhanced with the inclusion of a hand engraved date stamp on each blade, attesting to the date of manufacture. ||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|shibatatank||item-1||solidtemplate||buknupto17an||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/shibata-as-tank-180mm-153.png||||||Shibata AS Tank 180mm||SKAS-T180||resources > bannobunkas > buknupto17an > ||Knife Types > Bunka Knives > Bunka Knives 170mm and Longer > ||399.950||399.950 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||Our regular customers and followers know that we enjoy bringing outside-the-box knives, makers, materials, and methods to the CKTG store. It is one of the things that defines us, and in the case of this extraordinary blade, sets yet another high mark in this quest for the unusual!
While at first glance the Shibata AS Tank is as different a knife as we have seen, it is in fact more of a melding of a couple of classic blade designs. Obviously, a cleaver is the first that comes to mind. While the Tank appears to be extra tall, it follows the average blade length to height ratio normally found on this popular knife. The second knife of this marriage is of course the bunka. The tip is the most obvious design element and this is what has been transferred to the Tank. Like the bunka, but unlike the cleaver, it has a pronounced belly towards the reverse tanto tip. This knife is a collaboration between Shiba and Ikeda who both bring their unique expertise to the knife. Ikeda does the forging and Shiba does the sharpening.
So, while this might have some people scratching their heads over what and why, we think this is a very interesting cross pollination of two incredibly versatile knife types.
The Tank is made from Aogami Super steel with a soft stainless steel cladding that has a kurouchi finish. Lest we forget, this knife caries all of the outstanding attributes that Shibata-san endows in his knives, in this case a beautifully executed grind and wonderful behind the edge thinness. Lastly, the uniqueness of the knife is further enhanced with the inclusion of a hand engraved date stamp on each blade, attesting to the date of manufacture. A lovely octagonal handle made from rosewood completes this compelling and unusual package.
So we asked one of our favorite blacksmiths, Takayuki Shibata, to make his interpretation of this ubiquitous blade. The CKTG exclusive, Shibata Kashima R-2 Gyuto is the result of his quest. It is a hammer-forged, san-mai blade made with R-2 stainless steel. The inner core is clad with a soft stainless steel for easy care and added strength. The R-2 cutting edge will sharpen to a razor’s edge and due to its outstanding edge retention characteristics, will hold that edge for protracted periods on the cutting board. Shibata-san is an excellent knife sharpener so it will be a top performing knife right out of the box.
Kashima is the name of a famous Japanese naval ship that is beautiful, sleek, modern, and designed to slice through the oceans with grace. We think you'll have the same opinion of this wonderful knife.

The R-2 cutting edge will sharpen to a razor’s edge and due to its outstanding edge retention characteristics, will hold that edge for protracted periods on the cutting board. Shibata-san is an excellent knife sharpener so it will be a top performing knife right out of the box.
Kashima is the name of a famous Japanese naval ship that is beautiful, sleek, modern, and designed to slice through the oceans with grace. We think you'll have the same opinion of this wonderful knife.
Shiba fashions his blades out of R-2 stainless powdered steel. Many knife aficionados like this stainless alloy for the extremely thin blades that can be fashioned from it. Knives made of R-2 steel can be sharpened to a narrow degree angle which results in an amazingly fine cutting edge. The R-2 steel is hardened to between 62-63 HRC, which is an impressive number!
The fit and finish are of the very highest standards. The blade faces have a rough finish to reduce friction between the food and the knife, while the spine of the knife has a very high mirror polish. This maximizes friction between your fingers and the blade, for better control, comfort, and safety.
Bunka knives combine compact dimensions and versatility. The relatively tall blade makes for a good hand to board clearance while the flat profile is perfect for vegetable prep, especially for push cutters. That great looking pointed tanto style tip is great for detail work and getting into tight places. It looks cool too!
“In my kitchen I was using a gyuto knife. It was a beautiful knife. But it was a little too curved for my liking. Didn't make enough contact with the food. So I switched to a straight-edged nakiri. Better for chopping vegetables. But when I was cutting meat, then I wanted to go back to my gyuto. Hmm, I thought. Somebody should make a new type of knife, one that falls between a gyuto and a nakiri. And then, as I am a knife maker, I thought that I should make it. So I did. I gave it a slightly curved edge. Too-straight produces too much friction. Too-curved reduces contact with the food. This slight curve is my attempt at a happy medium. I also gave it a sharp point. This is very nice for scoring vegetables, or squid, or chicken.”
Shiba makes use of the popular R-2 powdered stainless steel alloy to fashion the jigane (inner layer) which then receives a hagane (outer layer) of a softer stainless steel. A lovely hand executed rough finish is applied to this layer to aid in food release, especially in items with a high water content.
These laser-like blades are finished to the highest standards and then matched to a lovely octagonal rosewood handle and pakka wood ferrule.
If you look at the 4th photo you can see a carrot sliced on the right was cut by a good, but ordinary, kitchen knife. The slice on the left was cut by a Shibata Koutetsu.
We think Shibata-san is really onto something, and we think you might agree!
Takayuki Shibata is a young blacksmith working out of his shop in Fukuyama City, Hiroshima, Japan. It is here that he developed his very unique line of Kotetsu knives. Kotetsu translates to “ironclad,” which was the name given to the first ironclad battle ship in the Japanese Navy. It had a very distinctive pointed bow which allowed it to carve through water with ease and efficiency.
This is the basic mantra of his knives. They are made very thin—laser thin. They are endowed with a beautifully formed profile and razor sharp cutting edge. The fit and finish are of the very highest standards. The sides of the knife have a rough finish to reduce friction between the food and the blade. The spine of the knife has a very high mirror-polish. This maximizes friction between your fingers and the blade, for better control, comfort, and safety.
The final word on these unique and beautiful knives belongs to the master. “In my kitchen and in my workshop, I am always thinking about you, my customer. I hope that my knives will surprise and delight you. May your cooking life be enriched! With loving thanks from my kitchen to yours.” -Shiba
This good looking ko-bunka is a perfect example of the fine grind and extremely well done fit and finish exemplified by the Kotetsu line. These are thin blades designed with a fairly constant spine thickness almost to the tip. And speaking of tips, the unusual pointed tip of all Shibata-san’s knives are inspired by the bow of Japan’s first ironclad warship. It has a generous blade height for extra finger clearance. The spine of the knife has a very high mirror polish. This maximizes friction between your fingers and the blade, for better control, comfort, and safety.
The short length of the ko (short) bunka results in a very nimble and quick cutter. The laser grind and superb out-of-the-box edge further emphasize the excellent cutting and slicing abilities of this compact and beautifully finished knife.

The Japanese knife industry is passionate about R-2 steel and many fine products made from this steel show why. They hold a sharp edge and they are very durable. Most users of this knife find that it is very easy to use and to sharpen. Cutting most produce requires very little pressure on the knife. Powder metal technology has advanced in the making of knives and the R-2 steel exemplifies this. This knife is strong, lightweight, and possesses a fine aesthetic appearance. The fit and finish are as good as it gets.
The core steel is covered with a softer stainless steel cladding which adds to the strength and durability of the blade. Shiba has this to say about the cladding finish: “The sides of my knife have a rough finish, to minimize friction between the food and the blade. This is especially noticeable with foods that have a high water content. My knife's rough sides break up the water's surface tension, allowing the blade to slide through more easily.”
Each knife comes with a well-made octagonal handle and pakka wood ferrule.
R-2 steel is a proprietary powdered alloy made by the Kobelco Steel Company primarily for use in the manufacturing of tools. It is a perfect steel for kitchen knives as it is easy to maintain and can be hardened to a reasonably high rating, in this case 62-63 HRC.
All of Shibata-san’s R-2 knives feature an elegant and useful tip design inspired by the bow of the first ironclad fighting ship in the Japanese Navy, called the Kotetsu (literal translation of ironclad). The core R-2 steel is covered in a softer stainless steel, the sides of which have a rough finish, to minimize friction between the food and the blade. This is especially noticeable with foods that have a high water content.
The 80mm petty is a really unusual looker. It is primarily intended for in-hand detail work and garnish production. It is super thin and finished to a very high standard. The octagonal rosewood and black pakka wood handle is large for the size of blade but gives the knife a very controlled feel and great balance. This is a fun knife that will find many uses around the kitchen.
Shibata-san crafts extremely well-finished knives from a core steel of R-2 powdered stainless alloy. They are laser-like blades with extremely well executed grinds and edges. The spine and heel are nicely smoothed for comfort and the out of the box edge feels like it was refined on the very best natural stones.
The Kotetsu line of knives harmoniously incorporates the cool look of a bunka with the kiritsuke shape throughout the entire collection. It translates particularly well with this sujihiki, resulting in a sword-like appearance. This is a wonderfully light and balanced blade. Shibata-san is a master sharpener and these knives are hair splitting sharp out of the box. Plus, with this excellent steel, they'll hold that edge for a long time.
The Kotetsu sujihiki is finished with a traditional octagonal rosewood handle and pakka wood ferrule which is finished to match the high standards of the blade.
The knife is made from R-2 stainless steel that has been hammer forged, san-mai style, with a softer stainless outer layer. The blade face is given a subtle hair line finish and hand-engraved kanji. The edge profile has a slight belly over almost the entire length which will find particular favor with rocking style users. Combine the shorter length of the edge with the fine pointed tip design, and you have a very versatile knife for both regular processing duties as well as more detailed work.
The coupling of a traditional jarrah wood and black pakka wood handle with this fine looking blade results in a great looking knife, one that is dexterous in hand, nimble in use, and offers a real balance of performance and ease of maintenance.
Yet another winner from Shibata-san!

The Enjin SRK8 Bunka 165mm is a compact kitchen knife that can do almost any job thrown at it. These are such versatile cutters due to the shorter length, taller profile, and pointed tanto-style tip. Bunka knives are gaining in popularity and rightfully so. They are stiff, and lighter than other knives of similar length, and the profile lends itself to users of all cutting styles. A perfect introduction to Japanese kitchen knives!
Two features common to funayukis are a fairly flat blade profile with a relatively little belly, and short, handy size. The Enjin SRK8 Funayuki 165mm certainly ticks those boxes!
The first knives in this new line are made with SRK8 steel which is an alloy that boasts some similarities to Hitachi Shirogami #2. In the case of SRK8, chrome and nickel are added for extra toughness and resilience. The steel is heat-treated to HRC 63+. It should therefore hold a good edge and be easy to sharpen.
These are really fine knives featuring a well-done kurouchi finish on the upper blade road that fades to a nice matte sand-blasted lower portion. The core SRK8 steel shows really well against this backdrop. A great-looking burnt oak wood handle with an urushi finish makes a perfect match for the blade.
Shindo san uses a relatively new (to us) steel called SRK8. This high carbon alloy is made by Hitachi and it has been reported to be a similar steel to the ubiquitous White Paper #2, but with some added elements for extra toughness and edge retention. He hardens the core steel to HRC 63+. The inner core steel is clad in a soft iron that retains the blacksmith scale, or kurouchi, on the upper blade road. This adds a bit of corrosion protection while enhancing food release properties. This is still a reactive blade and will require care with cleaning and drying between uses.
Enjin is a name derived from two Japanese words: “en” means flame, and “jin” means blade. We really like the connotation and to emphasize it we asked for a burnt handle finish for these blades!
The Enjin SRK8 Gyuto 210mm is an all-around great knife at a very competitive price. It is perfect for users looking for a smaller chef-type knife that will hold its edge and look good for an incredibly long time.

Many honesuki knives are single-bevel designs, reflecting their Japanese heritage. But many are now being made with a two-sided edge, as is this example. A side effect of this double bevel is that the knife becomes more of a general-purpose petty-style knife. The shape and weight allow for easy and secure in-hand work as well as being a great blade for creating garnishes.
There are two main styles within this group. One is the more common triangle shape with a flat edge and very pointed tip. The other, like this one, is more general in profile and features a tanto-style tip.
This adaptable knife is well made and well finished. It has a traditional kurouchi finish on the upper blade road that adds a nice rustic and purposeful aesthetic appeal. The SRK8 inner core is a great knife steel akin to White #2, and together with kurouchi cladding of soft iron, presents a blade that is tough and easy to maintain, one that will hold an edge for protracted uses. Add that great-looking burnt oak wood handle and you have a versatile kitchen tool that represents outstanding value for money.

The SOKAN brand products factory is located in Yamagata prefecture, which is famous as a production center for forged gardening tools.
The first Sokan was born in 1819 and he was a blacksmith of Japanese Swords. After the end of Samurai era, demand for Japanese Sword decreased and the production was switched over to various shears. It was around 1870-1874 and the foundation year is regarded as 1870. Around 1880 the original model of the current pruning shears was developed and since then the factory has been focusing on and producing pruning shears.
His pruning shears are produced in a traditional way inheriting the process of Japanese Sword makiing. A tapered screw is used to fix the blades (photo 2672) and as a result, the shears can be used without looseness on the screw for a long time. This is the most important thing for shears.
A seasoned craftsman is giving the cutting edge and the shears have excellent cutting quality. The steel material used is called KA70 which is widely used for cutlery in Japan.||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|spatulas||item.||solidtemplate||knife-accessories||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/spatulas-66.png||||||Spatulas||||knife-accessories > ||Accessories > ||||||||||||||||0||1||0||0||||riarmiplsp stgrfl yasmfl ||||We sell mostly to professional cooks and a common request is for spatulas that can be taken to work.

These knives are good lookers and equally impressive performers, constructed from HAP40 steel which is one of the hardest alloys used in the making of kitchen knives. Because of this inherent hardness this Powdered Metallurgy steel can be ground much thinner than other steels. It also holds that sharpness is much longer than most others.
The inner core of HAP40 and is covered with a softer stainless steel cladding. HAP40 holds an edge better than just about anything we sell and it's well known among our professional chefs who appreciate these attributes as they will be able to complete an extended work session without the need to clean or sharpen the blade regularly.
The blade face has a fine hairline finish that is polished to a medium shine. This mates perfectly with the magnolia octagonal handle with a traditional black buffalo horn ferrule. Add in the x-factor that is Sukenari, and you have a knife that can be your daily go-to, your show knife, or your prized heirloom.

We expect this will be a favorite by our customers for years to come.||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|tachgy21||item-1||solidtemplate||21wehagy||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/takamura-chromax-gyuto-210mm-296.png||||||Takamura Chromax Gyuto 210mm||TC-G210||resources > gyutos > gyutos210mm > 21wehagy > ||Knife Types > Gyutos > Gyutos 210mm > 210mm Western Handled Gyutos > ||145.000||145.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||Chromax steel is a kitchen knife material known for its distinctive properties. While it offers greater corrosion resistance compared to high-carbon steels, it remains classified as semi-stainless. This means it's less likely to rust but can still develop a patina over time and react with acidic foods. Additionally, Chromax steel sharpens well, similar to high-carbon steel, and can achieve an impressive hardness of 65 HRC.
The Takamura Chromax Santoku is a very sweet knife. It is made from Chromax steel, which is a semi stainless alloy often compared to R2. It has a very solid and tough feel, as opposed to a slightly more dainty feel of R2.
Chromax is composed of 5% chromium, 1% carbon, 0.9% manganese, 1.2% molybdenum and 0.5% vanadium. It is more resistant to corrosion than standard carbon steel. It is also harder and exhibits better edge retention compared to standard stain-resistant steel. Chromax steel manifests the positive characteristics of both carbon and stain-resistant steel.
These knives have a very attractive hammered finish and excellent grinds. The tsuchime hammered pattern was actually first developed and patented by Takamura Cutlery 50 years ago. Since the expiration of the patent, it is now used by many knife makers. This is the same blade as the other Takamura Chromax Santoku except with a nicer bolstered handle made of light brown oak colored wood.
Fit and finish is out of this world amazing.
Sharpness,I did not touch this up or order with CKTG sharpening.
While doing bruinoise of ginger it was sticking into my board.
Amazing knife wonderful to work with so far,looking forward to adding this to my rotation of work knifes.
My wife exclaimed that the blade just falls through vegetables. If you are looking for a knife that gives you control and feedback,look no further.
At the core of this knife you will find one of the newest advancements in powdered metallurgy, SG2 (R-2), which is sometimes referred SG-2. This is fully stainless steel that is capable of taking a tremendously sharp edge and is among the best for edge retention. The hardness on these is in the range of 62 HRC. The knife is clad in a softer stainless to provide added durability. The finish is a well-done migaki, meaning "polished" in Japanese. The super fine edge and a well-polished blade provide a unique experience for the user.
The western-style handle is made from rosewood, and the fit and finish is very good. The blade has an ample height of 29mm, so board work is quite comfortable. The spine measures 1.4mm and is even thinner at the tip. It is a true laser-like petty, and it's feather light at 2.2 ounces!
Whether you're a seasoned knife user or a collector, Sakai Takayuki is a name that holds weight in the industry. Their long-standing tradition of excellence combined with a commitment to modernity sets them apart from the rest.

A nice maple octagonal handle completes this great-looking package.

While mono steel knives might lack the handmade feel and look of other forged blades, they make up for this with their precision, consistency, and durability. The fully stainless construction also makes them really easy to maintain. This is an essential requirement in many home or professional kitchens. Bohler N690 Stainless Steel offers exceptional sharpness as well as abrasion and corrosion resistance, and will stay that way over many years of service.
This is a very unusual knife given its style and construction. Deba style knives are made to fillet and process fish. They are normally single bevel knives that are very stout at the spine and quite heavy over all. The Takayuki Grand Chef Western Deba 240mm is quite the opposite in that it is a double bevel knife that is still quite thick at the spine. With an edge length of 245mm, it is fairly quite long for the breed. But while it looks like a gyuto in profile it is still a heavy and substantial blade—almost twice the weight of a similarly sized gyuto. As it is a double-sided knife it is far easier to sharpen than singles and will be a good fit for both left- and right-handed users.

The 180mm gyuto is about the shortest available length for a classic gyuto. It is a preferred size for smaller hands or restricted board areas. The edge grinds on these knives are stellar and we really like the overall fit and finish of the package.
The blade is made with top-quality Bohler N690 stainless steel. Takayuki sources this steel from the Swedish Uddeholm factory.

Takayuki hardens the steel to about 60 HRC. Because it is a mono steel blade there is no cladding of other steels, which means that you have a knife with superior stainless properties which translates to an ease of maintenance that many chefs appreciate.

The santoku knife is a really great all-around kitchen blade. It has a deft feel and tall blade which endow the knife with a great deal of versatility in its cutting capabilities. Santoku translates to three virtues and the acts of slicing, chopping, and dicing are tackled with aplomb by this classic design. Many western chefs and home cooks look to the santoku as their go-to blade for many general cutting tasks. The symmetrical 50/50 grind, coupled with the gently curved belly, make this a good choice for cooks of all types and cutting preferences.

This is no ordinary bunka, however. It is a stunning example of the art of blade-making, supremely fit for use or simply as a collectible. The fit and finish of the blade and handle are as good as it gets. The heat treatment and grinds are also world-class. The core of the blade is made from Aogami 2 high carbon steel by the Hitachi Metals Company. This steel is highly sought after and is made from Japanese pure sand irons at their famous Yasugi plant in Shimane Prefecture. It is coveted for its great edge retention and ability to take a very acute edge.
The inner core is laminated with a soft iron which protects the Shirogami and adds a shock-absorbing attribute to the knife. The blade face has a high primary grind which looks like a single bevel blade. The aesthetic quality of the three different finishes on the blade faces is beautiful. Together with the wonderful handle made from rosewood, nickel silver, and buffalo horn, this adds up to a knife that is as much a looker as it is a performer.
Experience the pinnacle of precision and craftsmanship with the Sakai Takayuki Hein Blue #2 Kengata Yanagiba 300mm. Meticulously forged by master blacksmith Itsuo Doi in the renowned knife-making city of Sakai, Japan, this exceptional blade is a testament to centuries of tradition and expertise.
This is an unusual knife, but one that would find favor with a variety of users from die-hard rocking cutters to butchers and grill masters. The blade is fashioned from Aogami 2 steel which is a favorite of many knife users and aficionados. It is one of the harder steels to forge but when done correctly can stand up to virtually any other steel in terms of edge retention, wear resistance, and toughness. The inner core is clad with a soft iron for added strength and durability. The outer layer is finished with a fine satin look, while the edge Aogami steel is polished to a high luster.
The blade is attached to a beautifully made octagonal handle made from Japanese yew (taxus cuspidata) wood. Japanese yew wood is dense, hard, and has a beautiful luster. In fact it was commonly used to make ceremonial and exotic tools for high-level officials in ancient Japan. The ferrule is made from black buffalo horn and is perfectly mated to the wood handle.
This is a limited edition item that would make a wonderful addition to any collection or serious knife user’s quiver.
This is a butcher-style knife but with a twist. It looks like a fat scimitar or an upside down santoku. Or maybe the offspring of an encounter between the two! The unusual upswept tip and the very flat edge profile result in a knife with a very different look and feel on the cutting board. We think it would make a killer tool for breaking down sides of beef or for folks using it for barbecue competitions who want to show off!
The core steel is the ever popular Hitachi Blue #2 high carbon alloy. It is clad with a softer iron to protect and dampen the blade. The cladding is applied in the san-mai style where the outer layer, or jigane, is only on the face and not wrapped over the spine. As such it needs care with drying and cleaning. It will corrode if not given this attention. The cladding has a really well done brushed satin finish which highlights the polished Blue steel edge. The simple traditional octagonal handle is constructed from yew wood with a fine buffalo horn ferrule. Overall execution of handle and blade is of the highest order.
Made by the illustrious blacksmith Itsuo Doi, this is a knife of unusual design made with extraordinary finesse.
The core steel of this great looking sujihiki is Hitachi Blue #2 high carbon steel. It is clad with a soft iron to protect and strengthen the blade. As it is an iron cladding it will need care with drying and cleaning after use. The cladding has a very nice brushed satin finish which highlights the polished Blue steel edge.
This is an unusual sujihiki in that it has an exaggerated curve to the cutting edge while boasting an almost flat spine all the way to the tip. It is a double bevel knife, so it is good to go for left- and right-handed users. The really fine handle is made from Japanese yew wood with buffalo horn ferrule. The fit and finish of both blade and handle are world class.
Itsuo Doi is one of our favorite blacksmiths. His reputation has risen to the point that he is considered one of the true greats working in Sakai. His knives are very recognizable, rather like that of his illustrious father. But these Homura creations have a new and very alluring look that is less traditional. Doi-san makes the blade from Aogami #2 steel. Favored by many, it is one of the harder steels to forge. But when done correctly, Aogami #2 will stand up to virtually any other steel in terms of edge retention, wear resistance, and toughness. The hagane is clad with a soft iron for added strength and resilience. The jigane is finished with a beautiful satin luster, and the edge steel is polished to a high shine.
A simple and elegant octagonal handle is made from yew wood with a fine buffalo horn ferrule. The overall fit and finish of the handle and blade are of the highest order.
The Sakimaru 300mm is a sujihiki with a different name and a cool swoop tip. Made from Blue #2 high carbon steel, this kitchen weapon will slice its way through almost any raw or cooked protein with no effort needed. And that is the point of a knife like this: it’s all about how it slices in one motion while disturbing the ingredient as little as possible. The slight recurve shape is conducive to making this action even easier. It bears the look of a short katana.
A subtle yet beautiful brushed satin finish is applied to this outer layer which contrasts wonderfully with the polished edge. A classic octagonal yew handle with buffalo horn ferrule completes this compelling package. Saya included.
With hand-hammered finishes and convex grinds, these knives are both stunning and practical. The burnt Japanese Oak wa-handle, coated in Urushi lacquer, offers a traditional, durable grip. Each knife is engraved with Itsuo Doi’s personal seal, ensuring authenticity and artistry.
Crafted from Blue #2 carbon steel and expertly forged by blacksmith Itsuo Doi, this knife features a hammered (Tsuchime) finish and a single bevel, right-hand grind for exceptional performance. The blade measures 285mm on the edge, with a thickness of 4.5mm at the heel.
The handle is made from Urushi lacquered oak with a burnt finish for a unique look, while the blade is finished with a Kurouchi to combat potential rust and patina.
The craftsmen of Sakai Takayuki carefully finish each knife, so you can be confident that it will perform right out of the box. Please note that a cover is not included with this knife.
Itsuo Doi, heir to the legendary blacksmith Keijiro Doi, continues a family legacy of crafting the finest hand-forged knives for over seven decades. As a mark of authenticity and excellence, Mr. Doi's family emblem is delicately engraved near the logo on each blade, symbolizing a heritage of quality.
The series' namesake, Guren, or Red Lotus, draws inspiration from the mesmerizing red flames produced by burning fine pine charcoal in the Doi family's forge, reflecting the vibrant spirit and passion infused in every knife.
At the heart of these exquisite knives lies the renowned Aoko or Blue Paper (Aogami) No.2 Steel, made from the famed Yasugi steel. This prime high carbon steel is celebrated for its superior wear resistance and toughness, making it a preferred choice for the creation of high-end Japanese kitchen knives.

The Takayuki Inox Honesuki is made from stainless steel which Takayuki calls Inox. Inox is derived from the French “inoxydable,” and is usually an alloy with a minimum of 10.5% chromium by mass. The actual stainless alloy is a proprietary secret but it is a full stainless alloy that is stamp-cut to produce the mono-steel blade.
The honesuki is a Japanese-style boning knife that differs from the western variety in several ways. Primary among them is the triangular shape and very stiff blade. It works well as a poultry knife, but will also perform most deboning or filleting tasks. It is not designed to cut through bones, however. This particular blade is ground on both sides with an asymmetrical edge that favors right-handed users.
The blade is mated to a western style handle made from POM. POM, or polyoxymethylene, is a very stable material perfectly suited for use in the kitchen. This nicely made handle is attached to the full tang with three stainless rivets.
The Takayuki Inox Cleaver 210mm is of medium length and height. The blade edge runs a true 210mm while the height is a well-proportioned 95mm. It is a thin blade at 2.4mm at the heel and weighs in at about 430g. The steel used for this knife is dubbed Inox, which is a generic term used by many knife makers for a stainless steel that has a high chromium content. This alloy is a molybdenum style steel which will take a very sharp edge while being easy to sharpen and maintain.
The design is a full tang style with a simple bolsterless handle made from POM (polyoxymethylene). This is a very stable and tough material that is perfectly suited for the rigors of daily use in a busy kitchen. Together with the stainless blade this results in a knife that is an easy to care for workhorse. Add in the very keen price point and you have a cleaver for all users and uses.
The lovely deba featured here is a handmade traditional blade using a very rugged stainless steel called AUS8A. This is a high chromium molybdenum steel which is easy to sharpen while possessing great edge retention.
Debas are one of the trinity of Japanese kitchen knives. Designed to cut and process fish, they have a very thick spine and tall stout blade. They are a single sided blade so the cutting angle is very acute, and thus exceptionally sharp. It should be noted that maintaining and using single-edged blades requires a completely different set of skills over double-edged blades. Sharpening in particular is a more specialized task and should only be attempted by someone who has experience with these types of knives. As this is a single bevel blade, it is intended for right-handed users.
The blade is finished with some lovely Kanji characters and is attached to a traditional D-shaped handle made from ho wood with a buffalo horn ferrule.
The deba knife was created in Sakai, Osaka, Japan. Originally the Portuguese had requested the slicing of large amounts of tobacco and the deba was created for this purpose. Due to its utility as a blade for many more things, its popularity in the Japanese kitchen grew quickly. With its middle length blade, sharp edge, and thick spine, it became a multipurpose knife which found particular favor in the chopping of proteins (mainly fish as that was the most commonly consumed protein).
The steel is really good at taking and maintaining a very sharp edge. It also has the potential to hold that edge over a long work session. Add to that its easy to maintain characteristics and tough construction, and you have a knife that will perform well in most circumstances and with most users. Of course, it is a single-bevel design so it is only usable by left-handed cooks. It is coupled to a well-made traditional D-shaped ho wood handle which has a buffalo horn ferrule.

This particular knife is a standard or Hon-deba. Its blade is stout and thick at the spine. It has a very well-executed primary bevel that gets very thin at the edge. It is constructed from stainless steel which Takayuki brands as Inox. This is a generic term for many stainless alloys, including the AUS8A steel used in this application. This stainless steel is very tough and corrosion resistant, making this a very easy-to-use knife with less concern given to rusting or staining. The simple D-shaped ho-wood handle and buffalo horn ferrule are a perfect match for this traditional Japanese knife.

The stamped blade features a full tang and bolsterless design. The handle is a classic western or wa style which is made from polyoxymethylene, also known as POM. POM is an engineered thermoplastic material used to make precision parts exhibiting high stiffness and excellent dimensional stability.
This gyuto measures in at 210mm, a perfect length for smaller kitchens and chefs needing a more compact sized knife. The dimensions also make it well suited to tackling smaller ingredients or those requiring fine detail work. It has a fairly flat edge to about the half point where it transitions to a well curved belly. It should be a knife suited to most cutting styles.
This 210mm gyuto is a great choice for home or pro chefs seeking a rugged, do-it-all knife at a very attractive price.
Takayuki makes knives of every type, style, and price point. The Inox knife featured here is one of their budget creations aimed at home chefs as well as line cooks and students of the cooking arts.
The blade is made from a single piece of a stainless steel which they call Inox. While Inox is a generic term for a stainless alloy containing a minimum of 10.5% chromium by mass, we believe the steel is a classic molybdenum vanadium alloy. These alloys are renowned for their incredible edge taking attributes and their ability to hold that edge for over a long work session. Couple that with its easy to maintain abilities and tough construction and you have a knife that will perform well in most circumstances and with most users. The POM western style handle is also a tough and stable construction that will withstand the rigors of a professional kitchen. The complete package is of a high standard in both looks and performance, especially given its very attractive price.
The featured usuba knife is a prime example of their craftsmanship. This handmade traditional blade is forged from durable AUS8A stainless steel, known for its high chromium and molybdenum content. It is not only easy to sharpen but also offers excellent edge retention, making it a reliable choice for any kitchen.

This is a shorter yanagiba at just 233mm in length, as these knives usually run up to and even beyond 330mm. But this is the perfect size for most home chefs and those working in restricted spaces. It is of course single bevel, and so of use only to right-handed users. The blade is finished with some lovely kanji characters and is attached to a traditional D-shaped handle made from ho wood with a buffalo horn ferrule.

Coming in at about 258mm, the Takayuki Inox Sujihiki 270mm is a good size for many users and kitchen spaces. While the yanagiba is most often used for slicing raw fish for sashimi and for slicing sushi rolls, it is also perfect for cutting cooked proteins or butterflying meats. This length makes these operations possible in a single slicing action.
These knives are hammer forged from a stainless steel that the maker calls Inox. While this is a generic term for many stainless alloys, this knife is made from AUS8A, a tough and corrosion resistant steel that takes and holds a very fine edge. The stainless nature of the steel makes this a very easy to use knife with less concern given to rusting or staining. Of course it is a single bevel design so it is only usable by right-handed users. It is coupled to a well-made traditional D-shaped ho wood handle which has a buffalo horn ferrule.

With a 44.5mm blade height and a slender spine thickness of just 2mm, this knife promises agility and precision in every cut. Its weight of 158g (5.5oz) makes it a light yet balanced instrument, allowing for tireless chopping and slicing of vegetables and herbs.
The heart of the blade boasts VG10 stainless steel, renowned for its superior edge retention and resistance to corrosion, making it a reliable companion in the busiest of kitchens. The stunning stainless Damascus cladding isn't just for show; the hammered texture minimizes friction and prevents food from sticking, enhancing your cutting efficiency.
Engineered to a Rockwell hardness of 60±, the blade ensures robustness and longevity, keeping its edge through countless uses. The double bevel edge is sharpened to a 50/50 angle, catering to both left and right-handed chefs, providing a seamless cutting experience.
Complementing the formidable blade is the oak octagonal handle, meticulously shaped to fit comfortably in your hand, reducing fatigue and enhancing control. This handle is not just a tool but a statement of elegance that will stand out in any kitchen setting.
One look at these stunning knives is enough to convince anyone that these are a real cutting tool with outstanding visual appeal. The combination of a wonderfully realized tsuchime finish and the black Teflon coating results in a knife that looks bad to the bone!
Of course, this is not a knife whose beauty is only skin deep. The hammered dimples and Teflon coating afford the knife an amazing ability to release food. Combine this with a very easy-to-maintain steel, VG10, and some really well executed grinds and you have a knife that performs extremely well yet does not cost a fortune or require difficult maintenance regimes.
The bunka is a very versatile blade that is gaining popularity in many kitchens with both professional and home chefs. They are shorter in length than a gyuto and, combined with their tall blade height, create a knife with very broad uses and appeal. They are often used to replace a short gyuto or santoku, especially for people who favor push cutting and chopping techniques. No doubt the great looking reverse tanto profile also adds to a compelling aesthetic appeal.
Now take these good looks and turn up the volume to 11 and you have the Takayuki Kurokage VG10 Hammered Teflon Coated Bunka 190mm!
The blade is made from the ever-popular VG10 stainless alloy. This steel is highly regarded for its strength, edge holding, and general ease of maintenance. It is undoubtedly the most popular stainless steel used for Japanese kitchen knife blades. The wizards at Sakai Takayuki then apply a fine tsuchime, or hammered, finish to the blade face and top it off with a smooth Teflon coating. The result is a knife that looks like it belongs in Darth Vader’s knife block! Putting these two methods together results in a food release ability that is among the best we have encountered. Now add in the easy maintenance and sharpening ability of VG10 stainless steel and you have a knife that looks amazing and performs with the best of them, all at a very affordable price.
Made from a core of VG10 stainless steel, the blade is covered san-mai style with a softer stainless steel for protection and strength. This cladding is then treated to a finely crafted tsuchime finish. Then the unusual twist is added, a coating of smooth Teflon. This slippery application certainly adds an aesthetic element that is very different and quite lovely…in that sinister way. But more importantly it adds even more in the way of food release to the already efficient hammered blade faces.
Some finely applied kanji elements and a really lovely octagonal wenge wood handle up the looks even further. The word kurokage means “dark shadow,” and we cannot think of a better name for this imposing looking kitchen knife.
This is fairly average sized and proportioned gyuto. The grinds are very well done, and the overall balance and feel are really first class. Add in the great looks and ease of maintenance and you have an outstanding knife at a very keen price-to-performance ratio.

The smiths at Sakai Takayuki have fashioned this great looking blade from VG-10 stainless steel which has had an outer cladding of a 17-layer damascus stainless alloy applied to either side. Some VG-10 knives are harder to sharpen than many other steels but the smiths at Takayuki have developed a special tempering technique which results in a hardness of 60 HRC while being much easier to sharpen.
Kengata knives, also known as Bunkas can be used to replace a short gyuto, especially when you favor push cutting and chopping techniques. The short length and tall blade combine to create a knife with very broad uses and appeal.
The great looking reverse tanto profile also offers a compelling aesthetic especially when realized in this great looking hammered damascus version. The blade is given center stage with the inclusion of a simple traditional octagonal handle with a beautiful custom design. The match is perfect.
The Takayuki VG-10 Hammered Damascus Wa Santoku is made from the popular stainless steel known as VG-10. The name stands for V Gold 10, or sometimes V-Kin-10 (kin means "gold" in Japanese). VG-10 is probably the most popular stainless alloy used in the making of Japanese kitchen knives. The great-looking tsuchime, or hammered, finish blends with the ripples of the multi-layer damascus cladding to create a knife with wonderful visual appeal.

It retains the classic honesuki shape and is great for breaking down poultry and trimming meat as well as removing silverskin.
The Tokujuo knives are all single-bevel traditional styles, encompassing the main types that make up the Japanese knife canon. We have added a full range of yanagibas and this fine deba to the list. More styles will follow later.
A Mioroshi deba is thinner, shorter, and lighter than a traditional deba—a viable option for a user who wields it all day as a professional or anyone looking for a lighter knife. At the center of this fine blade is White #2, a highly regarded carbon steel that is quite often used in high-end Japanese cutlery. It is a steel known for its ability to take rather acute and refined edges, thus it is perfect for single-bevel knives. Although it falls slightly behind other paper steels in edge retention, it moves ahead as one of the easiest Japanese steels to sharpen.
The blade is attached to a traditional D-shaped handle made from ho wood and buffalo horn.
They’re forged from white 2 steel by the renowned Togashi workshop and they've produced it with a unique shape. An easy to care for Kurouchi finish and an octagonal Bubinga handle make for a stylish yet very traditional knife.
The Takayuki Tokujuo White #2 Yanagiba 240mm is fine example of one of the most intriguing and beautiful Japanese kitchen knives. The blade is fashioned from the ubiquitous White #2 steel which is hammer forged using the traditional ni-mai cladding technique. The outer layer is a soft iron which aids with strength, durability, and lightness. As with all yanagiba knives, it is single beveled with a slightly concave back side. Right-handed users only for this one!
This is a short yanagiba at just 235mm in length, as these knives usually run up to and even beyond 330mm. But this is the perfect size for most home chefs and those working in restricted spaces. It is also a lot easier to sharpen than a longer version. However. it still requires a good amount of experience to maintain a perfect edge on these single-bevel blades.
The look is as traditional as it gets: simple, elegant, and functional. The finish and aesthetic are likewise traditional and quite lovely. The upper blade face is slightly polished with the primary bevel receiving a matte finish. This transitions into the visible inner core resulting in a knife of simple beauty. The finely engraved kanji script and traditional magnolia wood handle, with buffalo horn ferrule, complete this great looking picture.
This fine example of the breed is made with Shirogami 2 steel, better known as White # 2. This particular alloy is favored by many blacksmiths and knife users, especially in the making of traditional yanagibas. The inner core is hammer forged ni-mai style with a soft iron cladding.
The single-bevel blade is made to the highest standards by Master Bladesmith Kenji Togashi, and features a lovely transition at the primary grind between the cladding and the blade edge. Master Togashi was awarded the Sakai Traditional Craftsman award in 1996. He is now considered to be one of the best bladesmiths in Japan and his work is highly sought after by both kitchen knife enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.
The most important aspect of this style and length of blade is to ensure that the fish is cut with a single and light action. This minimizes the damage caused to the cellular structure of the ingredient, which would result from the use of a rough sawing action. The added length of the 300mm blade makes this task easier than with a shorter variety. Of course, you do need some serious board space to utilize its full size.
Shirogami #2 steel is used in the core construction of the blade with a hagane (or cladding) of soft carbon steel outside. This is hand forged in the ni-mai style of awase, which enhances the strength and durability of the knife.
As is the case with most single-bevel knives, this one is only suitable for right-handed users. Like all similar constructions, the carbon blade requires care with cleaning and drying to reduce the chances of corrosion and discoloration. The beautiful slim blade is complemented by a traditional D-shaped handle made from magnolia wood and buffalo horn for the ferrule.
This knife occupies the upper end of the yanagiba size scale and as such requires space and experience to use it to its fullest advantage. It also requires the user to understand the intricacies of single-bevel sharpening, especially given its above average length.
The slender, long blade of a yanagiba is intended to cut slices of fish in a single drawing stroke. It should require a minimal amount of pressure to achieve the slice, which therefore avoids damaging the cells of the flesh. Expert sushi chefs can actually employ different cutting techniques to enhance the aesthetics and flavors of each type of fish, but it takes a knife of this caliber to achieve these goals.
This is a fine knife that is easy to recommend. Fit and finish, grinds, and overall beauty are of the highest caliber. If you have the space and skills, this is a knife to bring a smile every time you slice into that perfect fish fillet.
They're made for Takayuki by Sakai master blacksmiths and come with a beautiful natural stone finish. The blade is fashioned from Hitachi White #2 steel. The blade is single beveled, so the back side is almost flat with just a slightly concave profile. This aids in food release and the ability to guide the blade through the soft flesh in a precise and single-stroke action.
This lovely blade comes with a traditional Japanese D Shaped wa handle with black buffalo horn ferrule.
We really like the way this small knife performs in so many duties. It is a short blade with big abilities. A versatile cutting tool around the kitchen. Hand held processes are where it shines, along with the ability to take on garnishes and artistic style cutting techniques.
The attractive blade is coupled to a dyed pakka wood partial-tang handle that features a stainless bolster and three stainless rivets.
The smiths at Sakai Takayuki have fashioned this great looking blade from VG-10 stainless steel which has had an outer cladding of a 17-layer damascus stainless alloy applied to either side. Some VG-10 knives are harder to sharpen than many other steels but the smiths at Takayuki have developed a special tempering technique which results in a hardness of 60 HRC while being much easier to sharpen.
Bunkas can be used to replace a short gyuto or santoku, especially when you favor push cutting and chopping techniques. The short length and tall blade combine to create a knife with very broad uses and appeal.
The great looking reverse tanto profile also offers a compelling aesthetic especially when realized in this great looking hammered damascus version. The blade is given center stage with the inclusion of a simple traditional octagonal handle made from maple and red pakka wood. The match is perfect.
Cleavers are general purpose knives adept at tackling a wide range of kitchen cutting tasks. These fun and functional blades can be used any time and since this knife has a fairly flat profile, it is most adept at push cutting and chopping rather than rock chopping. The great looking hammered finish combines with the multi-layer damascus cladding to give the knife a true visual appeal. A good looking dyed pakka wood handle is attached to a partial tang and stainless bolster with three stainless rivets.

The edge length comes in at 215mm and combined with the slightly shorter height of 45mm results in a slim blade that resembles a classic French profile knife. It is double sided, so it is useful to right- and left-handed users.
This is a great looking knife that is a breeze to maintain, performs like a champ, and comes at a really affordable price.

Each knife is adorned with a handle skillfully shaped into a half-rounded octagonal form, utilizing Japanese Zelkova wood, which evokes a sense of traditional Japanese aesthetics. The bolster of the knife, fashioned from resilient mahogany wood, offers increased longevity and a reduced tendency for cracking, a notable improvement over traditional horn materials.
This style of knife is regarded as a general purpose blade adept at cutting and chopping a myriad of ingredients. Unlike a regular bunka, the blade profile of the Takayuki Damascus Hammered VG-10 Kengata has more belly, which makes it perfect for rocking as well as push cutting and chopping tasks. The characteristic reverse tanto tip allows for delicate work and dexterous handling. This knife is definitely among the more cool lookers out there!
The blade has been fashioned from a core of VG-10 stainless steel which has had an outer cladding of a 17-layer damascus stainless alloy applied to either side. The softer stainless steel cladding is given a tsuchime (hammered) finish which enhances to the knife’s great looks and also helps in achieving better food release.
The blade is attached to a fine looking Western handle made from dyed pakka wood. It is a partial tang knife so it is slightly lighter than a full tang example. The stainless bolster is well finished and matches the three stainless rivets perfectly. This is a great looking knife that will take on a multitude of kitchen cutting tasks while intriguing friends and colleagues with its sword-like appearance.
A kengata knife features the classic tanto tip found on Japanese swords. These knives can come in various styles, from the thin yanagiba to the stout bunka. This knife falls into the latter category.
Bunkas are general purpose knives adept at tackling a wide range of kitchen cutting tasks. Their reverse tanto profile results in a knife with a dexterous and delicate tip and a unique and eye catching aesthetic. These fun and functional blades can be used any time a gyuto or santoku might be called for. Since this knife has a fairly flat profile, it is most adept at push cutting and chopping rather than rock chopping. It is more gyuto than classic bunka due to its lower blade height and longer edge length. The great looking hammered finish combines with the multi-layer damascus cladding to give the knife a true visual appeal. A good looking dyed pakka wood handle is attached to a partial tang and stainless bolster with three stainless rivets.
The blade is made with a core of VG-10 stainless steel which is clad with a layer of damascus stainless steel in the san-mai style. The strong outer layer is given a hammer finish which contrasts beautifully with the damascus layer on the lower blade road.
The great looks of the blade are complemented by a subtle and understated traditional octagonal handle made from maple and red pakka wood.
At the core of this elegant tool lies the renowned VG-10 steel, celebrated for its superior durability and edge retention. The blade is perfectly balanced with an even edge grind, making it a versatile choice for both right- and left-handed chefs. Encased in a striking red Pakkawood handle, the knife offers a comfortable grip and a touch of sophistication to your culinary ensemble.
Engineered to perform, this knife features a special temper that achieves a remarkable hardness of RC 60, ensuring precision and longevity. The 50/50 bevel edge allows for precise and effortless slicing, adaptable to every kitchen task. Weighing only 6.6 ounces and boasting a blade length of 256 mm with an overall length of 390 mm, it is both agile and substantial in hand.

The shipping was super fast. I ordered it over the weekend,selected standard shipping and was basking in its beauty in time for Wednesday’s dinner.
And I do mean beauty. This knife is a true looker. VG-10 core,with a pretty damascus pattern about half-way up the blade,transitioning to non-damascus hammer (tsuchime) finish. Add on a handsome pakkawood handle and you’ve got a nice looking knife! The fit and finish was rather good for a hand-made knife at this price. The only thing that I could really mark it down for was a bit of unevenness around the Ferrule.
Well,that and the weight. Don’t be fooled by the short length,this knife has some heft to it. It easily weighs as much as some of my 165mm Debas. I don’t have a scale,but I’d say around 250-300 grams. The balance is very good,so it doesn’t feel terribly heavy to me,but if you are going to be using this all day,that might make a difference to you.
The Nakiri came with,what I’d call a "moderately sharp" OOTB edge. I’d say it was better than most Japanese manufacturers and about on par with say a Henckels but far from its true potential. If you are able to,take this edge to the stones! It sharpens very nicely,especially for a VG-10 which can sometimes develop a tenacious wire edge. I thinned it somewhat and took it down to about 6 degrees per side,for an included angle of 12. And suddenly this thing was a laser and held that phenomenal edge for about a week and a half of solid home use. Literally,with the exception of deboning and carving,I used this knife for everything,including a 20 person dinner. And after that week and a half,all it took was a light visit to the 8K and then a quick strop and it was right back where it started. Truly,this was a JOY to use,at least,for most tasks.
As beautiful as the hammered finish is,there is a downside to it. Throughout the tschumine section,the blade doesn’t taper. It starts at about 2.5mm thick at the spine,and remains that way for just shy of half the height of the blade. Only when you reach the damascus pattern does it really start to taper. The result is that on large vegetables you get some wedging issues (Potatoes,Sweet Potatoes,Cabbage). This issue occurred on pretty much anything dense and thick. That said,for a sweet potato,a nakiri isn’t my knife of choice. And for the things I WOULD grab a nakiri for,it performed fantastically.
Bottom line,if you’re looking for a great looking nakiri with good fit and finish at an affordable price,and don’t mind a bit of sharpening and a bit of heft,you should seriously consider this blade.
The knife was ordered immediately and was followed speedy delivery. It arrived in perfect shape and even came in a box similar to the one brought back from Japan.
The knife has an excellent weight to it. It came with a nice edge on it (understatement) and has been a gem since. I find the size perfect for my hand and the balance is great and makes it feel lighter than it is. No issues here being a lefty. The handle has a basic but comfortable feel to it. It also cleans up quite easily. I will post more upon a sharpening session to update this review.
This is a really nice example of a nakiri. It has been made from a sandwich of VG-10 core stainless steel with an outer cladding of a 17-layer damascus stainless alloy. The outer cladding is given a tsuchime (hammered) finish which adds to the great looks and also helps to promote better food release.
The Takayuki Damascus Hammered VG-10 Nakiri is not very tall, coming in at just 47mm at the heel. The edge profile, like all nakiri, is very flat. Out of the box edge is pretty good but a trip to your sharpening rig will pay huge dividends, especially as the Takayuki smiths have treated the blade to a special tempering operation which results in a much easier sharpening routine.
A nice dyed pakka wood handle is attached to a partial tang and stainless bolster with three stainless rivets. This is really great looking and performing nakiri at a most attractive price.
The Takayuki VG-10 Hammered Damascus Wa Petty is a very nice example of this style of blade. The smiths at Sakai Takayuki have fashioned the great looking blade from VG-10 stainless steel which has had an outer cladding of a 17-layer damascus stainless alloy applied to either side. Some VG-10 knives are harder to sharpen than many other steels but the smiths at Takayuki have developed a special tempering technique which results in a hardness of 60 HRC while being much easier to sharpen. The softer stainless steel cladding is given a hammered (tsuchime) finish which adds to the already great looks of this knife. The grinds on this knife allow for some very fine and precise cutting.
A traditional octagonal handle made from maple with a red pakka wood ferrule adds a great look and feel to this petty.
The inner core of VG-10 stainless steel is covered with a 17-layer cladding of a softer stainless steel. This not only reduces the overall weight of the blade but it also protects the more fragile core. Of course it also does wonders for the beauty of this fine blade. A really great looking Western handle made from dyed pakka wood finishes off this fine package.
They are now owned by Aoki-Hamano Seisakusho Company, whose goal is to pass on traditional techniques while incorporating new ones. Another of their stated aims is a resolution to tell the world that their knives are not tools, but rather crafts filled with the spirit of blade smiths and sharpening artisans. We like that!
This is a very nice petty, quite small, as far as petties go. It is made from VG-10 stainless steel with a multi-layer cladding of a softer stainless steel. The outer layer is further refined with the addition of a tsuchime (hammered) finish. This is a stout little knife with a robust spine that does not taper much until it gets to the tip. VG-10 can be a problem child of a steel but the smiths at Takayuki have created a blade that sharpens very nicely to a razor-like edge.
The fit and finish are very good indeed, and together with the great damascus and tsuchime finishes make for a very attractive knife. The blade is coupled to a dyed pakka wood handle attached to a partial tang for better weight distribution.
The Takayuki VG-10 Hammered Damascus Wa Santoku is made from the popular stainless steel known as VG-10. The name stands for V Gold 10, or sometimes V-Kin-10 (kin means "gold" in Japanese). VG-10 is probably the most popular stainless alloy used in the making of Japanese kitchen knives. The great looking tsuchime, or hammered, finish blends with the ripples of the multi-layer damascus cladding to create a knife with wonderful visual appeal.
The blade is given center stage with the inclusion of a simple traditional octagonal handle made from maple and red pakka wood. The match is perfect.
I sharpened it up a little right out of the box which was easy enough. this is an excellent value for this knife.
This santoku combines many attributes of a gyuto and western chef knife with a blade geometry incorporating the sheep's foot tip. A sheep's foot design essentially draws the spine ("backstrap") down to the front, with very little clearance above the horizontal cutting plane when the blade is resting naturally from heel to forward cutting edge. This results in a knife that favors less of a rocking motion as compared to a gyuto or chef knife. "Santoku" translates to Three Virtues. This is a perfect descriptor of the three cutting tasks which the knife performs well: slicing, dicing, and mincing.
The blade is clad with a fine looking soft stainless steel damascus layering that receives a tsuchime or hammered finish. It is coupled to a dyed pakka wood partial tang handle that features a stainless bolster and three stainless rivets. The complete package is of a high standard in both looks and performance, especially given its very attractive price.
For many home cooks the 240mm sujihiki is their go-to slicing knife. This blade glides through steaks and carves chicken and turkey with ease. This is the knife that you can reach for time after time, task after task.
This is a great-looking knife that is a breeze to maintain, performs like a champ, and comes at a really affordable price.
This gyuto combines many attributes of a western chef knife with a blade geometry that you will find familiar. This results in a knife that is good for rocking or push cutting.

After recently taking up collecting very old coins as a hobby, Mark has been inspired us to produce a coin memento of one of our favorite blacksmiths, Shosui Takeda.
The basic design was developed by the Takeda company itself and over the past months has been refined to suit a coin in terms of looks and production techniques. The back side of the coin has the classic CKTG logo and name, together with the “Stay Sharp” byline in Kanji.
Our forum members have had their say in the design and we think the end result is rather special. It is stamped from metal and then given a bath in acid before being burnished to bring out the details.
We are rather excited about this fun item and hope that it will lead to more memorabilia that knife lovers will add to their collections as well as giving away as gifts.||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|takeda-knives||item.||solidtemplate||forknco||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/takeda-knives-56.png||||||Takeda Knives||||specials > forknco > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > ||||||||||||1.000 ||||1||1||0||0||||tastclbu tastclnala tastclfu tastclchclsm takedagyuto tastclbu21 tastcllacl tastclgyme tastclassmya tastclki takedacoin tahast ||||Takeda Hamono was founded in 1920 and moved to Niimi in 1951 and produces hand-forged blades and tools such as kitchen knives, hoes, hatchets, etc. The third generation master blacksmith, Shosui Takeda, has succeeded in forging blades from the high quality carbon steel called Aogami Super Steel (AS). His knives are forged by hand with his small staff of master smiths. Each blade holds its edge extraordinarily well and resharpens easily.||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/takeda-knives.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|tastclbu||item-1||solidtemplate||takeda-knives||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/takeda-stainless-clad-bunka-91.png||||||Takeda Stainless Clad Bunka 170mm||TakedaNAS-BannoBunka170||specials > forknco > takeda-knives > ||Resources > For Knife Collectors > Takeda Knives > ||360.000||360.000 ||||||
The carbon core of the knife is laminated with kurouchi-finished stainless steel to enhance corrosion resistance and ease of maintenance. While smoother and more uniform than the kurouchi finish on Takeda’s Classic line, the aesthetic integrity of Takeda’s Stainless Clad line remains intact. Takeda’s knives have developed somewhat of a cult following amongst knife enthusiasts and are viewed by many as the gold standard for tall Japanese performance cutlery.
One per customer.
The knife featured here comes from the Stainless Clad collection, wherein the core AS steel is covered with a layer of softer stainless steel. The outer layer is applied to either side of the blade but not over the spine. This technique is called “san mai,” and it refers to the Japanese translation meaning three flat things. This process offers the practical and visible advantage of a superb cutting edge with a corrosion-resistant exterior. Corrosion can be avoided by keeping the exposed portion of the non-stainless part of the blade clean and dry after each use.
The blade length of these knives runs a bit longer than advertised, around 220mm. Each handmade blade will be slightly different in length and height. The cutting edge is ground with a 50/50 bevel. The blade face is finished with a kurouchi coating all the way to the edge and hand-engraved kanji characters add to the traditional look of this great looking knife.
This is a wonderful all-arounder which should find favor with users wanting a tall blade for extra board clearance. The flat profile will appeal to those chefs who like to push cut. We think that every knife enthusiast should have a Takeda in their collection and this bunka is a great example of this iconic brand.

This funayuki is an excellent knife for those who enjoy flatter edge profiles. This is another example of a more traditional Japanese pattern rendered with a 50/50 grind and edge by Mr. Takeda. This knife is very thin and the AS has only been taken to 62 HRC, which is relatively low for the steel (though quite hard by most objective standards). This treatment enhances the ductility of the knife and durability of the edge. Like all of Takeda’s knives, this funayuki has an excellent kurouchi finish and is quite tall. The unique geometry of the blade does a beautiful job separating ingredients and the pattern/edge profile of this knife will make it a fantastic option for push/pull cutting and chopping.

In this series, Takeda combines the AS core with softer stainless steel for easier maintenance and reduced reactivity, without compromising performance. Despite its ultra-tall profile and substantial steel, this 210mm gyuto is surprisingly lightweight. The acute edge bevels are made possible by the exceptional core steel.
If you seek a thin, tall knife with a distinct character that is easy to maintain and delivers exceptional performance, the Takeda AS Stainless Clad gyuto is the perfect choice.
One per customer.
The Takeda AS Stainless Clad gyuto has a stainless steel cladding over the carbon Aogami Super core, improving maintenance and corrosion resistance. The kurouchi finish of the Stainless series is smoother than the Classic series, reducing drag while cutting while preserving Takeda's iconic aesthetic.
The blade geometry of the gyuto is a 50/50 compound grind, with a rounded shoulder and an acute edge angle, resulting in excellent cutting performance and food separation. It has a long flattish sweet spot towards the heel and a curved shape that enables rocking. The handle is made of rosewood with a black pakka wood ferrule.
One per customer.
The Takeda Stainless Clad Kiritsuke, like most of Takeda’s knives, is exceptionally tall. As a result, this knife will feel and perform more like a long bunka. Usually, kiritsukes are known for their aptitude at slicing as well as vegetable work. Because of the height profile here, this knife will be excellent with produce, but won’t be as good for slicing work. The 50/50 grind and edge bevel make this blade suitable for both left- and right-handed users.

I also purchased the saya for storage and transporting. I used some mineral oil on the saya to match the look of the rosewood handle. Then,instead of putting it in a draw,I came up with a way to mount the knife and saya on the side of an existing knife block using plastic adhesive tool hooks.

I bought the Takeda sharpening stone for this knife,and use a strop for occasional touch-ups after use. Very easy to follow the angle of the blade.
This knife is well worth the cost,and will be treasured for generations to come.
Shosui Takeda’s interpretation of Western and traditional Japanese patterns has garnered global praise and an incredibly loyal following of knife enthusiasts. Prized for their height, thin ductile blades, excellent grinds and completely unique aesthetic, Takeda’s Aogami Super Stainless Clad series of knives are some of the best-selling knives on our site.
This 170mm nakiri has a great 50/50 compound grind that ends in an incredibly acute edge, making veggie prep a breeze. Fit and finish is very good and the rosewood octagonal handle matches the character of these unique knives perfectly.

This knife features a double-edged blade, making it compatible for both left and right-handed users. It's lightweight, thin, and has a cutting ability that is nothing short of a dream. The knife excels not only in carving and slicing tasks but is also ideal for delicate tasks such as filleting. This makes it an excellent all-purpose preparation knife suitable for professionals, as well as an ideal multipurpose knife for domestic use. Here are the details of its specifications. Each knife is a unique piece, skillfully hand-forged and completely original.

It’s a knife with rustic charm. A thin cutting edge backed by a robust spine makes this a very food work horse candidate. 3 stars for fit finish and out of the box presentation. Solid 4 stars once the edges get polished up.
Before you pass judgement on the blade,give it a chance.
Carrots are no match :)
The popular Blue Paper #2 carbon steel is used as the core of this knife, which Shikegi-san hardens to 60+ HRC. The hagane is covered with a softer stainless steel to add strength and shock resistance. The cladding is treated with a very appealing nashiji, or pear skin, finish. Of course, as with any carbon knife, the blade edge will discolor with use. This patina is quite normal and in fact further aids in the protection of the core carbon steel.
This gyuto a great example of his skills with Blue #2 steel. Blue Paper #2 carbon steel is one of the most popular steels for the making of kitchen cutlery. Tanaka-san hardens it to 62 HRC and clads it with a softer stainless steel to add strength and resilience. The cladding is treated with a nashiji (pear skin) finish.
These are medium weight knives that have a stiff and controlled feel. The blade is well proportioned with an overall cutting edge length of 208mm coupled to a 49mm blade height at the heel. The spine is quite thick above the heel but tapers to a very nicely realized thin tip.
These are really nice artisanal handmade knives that epitomize the blacksmith art. Enjoy!
These Tanaka bunka knives are real performers because of their fantastic convex grind, allowing the blade to easily slip through food items. Tanaka knives come with a very sharp edge out of the box and will likely not need much more than a stropping to achieve a wicked sharp edge. Not too thick and not too thin, these knives are solid middleweight contenders and should be strongly considered by any knife enthusiast.
Tanaka-san makes his knives in his small workshop located in Miki City. He works there with a small crew of artisans who collectively put out some of the best looking and performing knives we sell. In particular, his gyutos are ground masterfully with a very graceful convex that will shed food as well as any knife out there. Tanaka knives are well known for coming out of the box swinging with a really nice working edge already in place. Most people will not need more than a little bit of strop time to really get these blades screaming sharp.
For a good feel of what you can expect from this knife, check out the demonstration video below. Please note this one has a custom handle whereas the video shows the standard handle. But don’t worry, you will get the custom one pictured!

We really like bunka knives and they are gaining in popularity in the west due to their compact dimensions and versatility. They feature a relatively tall blade and a gently curved belly which makes for good hand to board clearance and application in all cutting styles. The pointed tanto style tip is great for detail work and getting into tight places. They are definitely one of the coolest looking knives! This great aesthetic is enhanced with some lovely contrasting finishes on the blade face. A well-made keyaki wood and brown pakka wood handle enhances these good looks.
This is a knife with some heft to it as it measures almost 8mm at the heel. It has a single bevel set for right-handed users. There is a very slight concave grind to the back side (ura) and the front features a nice primary bevel with a small micro bevel on the edge. The Tani Shirogami 2 Deba has an octagonal-shaped magnolia wood handle with buffalo horn ferrule, which perfectly matches the look and balance of the blade.
The Tani White #2 line of single-bevel knives is a new addition to this great value line of kitchen knives forged by blacksmith Tani san. He is a second-generation craftsman who plies his trade out of his shop in Sakai City. We are very impressed with the knives he is making from Hitachi White #2 steel. We think you will be too!
Fast forward a few hundred years and the deba still occupies a spot on the podium in the Japanese kitchen, along with its trinity siblings, the yanagiba and usuba.
Tani makes this knife out of White #2 steel. A Hitachi product that is favored by many makers especially when building single bevel blades. It has a great ability to be sharpened to the most acute angles, which is very desirable when making knives with this geometry. The core is clad ni-mai style with a soft iron. It has a migaki (polished) finish on the upper blade road and a soft satin below it down to the exposed core.
The traditional and finely finished octagonal handle is made from magnolia wood and buffalo horn.
Yuzou Tani is a smith who works in Sakai, Japan. Mr. Tani was born in 1962, and he has been in this job for 35 years. The company bearing his name was established 50 years ago by his father, who is the 1st generation. Tani-san makes all of his blades by hand and also laminates the steel himself.
The edge steel used by Tani for this beautiful Deba is Shirogami # 2 high carbon steel which is made by Hitachi Metals. This steel is a crowd favorite and Japanese smiths are drawn to use it in their single bevel knives due to its ability to take a very acute edge. He laminates the inner core with a soft iron for strength and durability. As it is also a reactive cladding, care needs to be taken to clean and dry the blade between uses.
This is a classic deba, so it is single beveled and is only useful to right-handed users. This particular knife comes with a simple but elegant octagonal magnolia wood handle with a buffalo horn ferrule. Together with the stunning blade work, this is a knife that is both functional and beautiful.
He hand forges the blades in the san-mai style of awase. This involves cladding the core with a soft iron that reinforces the main structure while adding an amount of shock absorption and protection. The cladding is applied to both sides of the blade but does not wrap over the spine.
The knife is stout but not thick. It has a solid feel that translates to a knife that exhibits great control and surety in operation. The length to height ratio is nicely balanced for most users. The primary bevel is given a lovely hairline finish that contrasts very well with the polished upper face and White steel core edge. Hand chiseled kanji characters add to this good look along with a well-constructed and -finished keyaki wood and brown pakka wood handle. These knives offer outstanding performance at a very competitive price. Color us impressed!

The construction is hammer-forged san-mai with the core steel being clad with a soft iron that covers both sides of the core but is not wrapped over the spine, so the core is exposed at the edge and spine. The primary bevel starts about 2/3 down the face and is given a nice hairline fish. This contrasts very well with the migaki (polished) finished main face. Construction and fit and finish are very well executed, especially for a knife at this price point.
The octagonal handle is made from magnolia wood with a black buffalo horn ferrule.
The Tani Shirogami 2 Usuba has a 'higashigata' style blade made popular in the Kanto area of Japan. This features a rectangular profile with squared-off corners. It has a completely flat cutting edge so that it ends up flush to the board when slicing. It is a fairly stout knife with a blade-heavy bias. This extra weight maximizes the efficiency of the cutting style called "utsu," where the blade is kept parallel to the board and moved to the far side while allowing the weight of the knife to cut straight down through the produce.
This knife is made with a core steel of Shirogami 2 and covered on one side with a soft iron layer. This is called ni-mai awase, or single-side cladding and the resulting blade is susceptible to corrosion so it requires careful drying after use. A traditional magnolia wood and buffalo horn handle with an octagonal profile completes the package.
Tani san is a second-generation craftsman who plies his trade out of his shop in Sakai City. He was born in 1962, and has been blacksmithing for 35 years. The shop bearing his family name was established 50 years ago by his father. He took over the reins of the family business when his father retired a few years ago. We have a great affinity towards smiths who do most of the work themselves and Tani-san not only makes all of his blades by hand but he also laminates the steel too.
The blade is made from a popular steel called White #2. This is a very good steel for knives and it is rightfully regarded as both durable and easy to sharpen. White steels are particularly liked for making single-bevel knives as they can take an extremely fine edge. The core (hagane) is covered with a soft iron cladding (jigane) in the ni-mai style of awase. This adds strength to the blade while reducing the weight. It also makes the knife easier to manufacture over single steel types.
The grinds are extremely well executed as is the overall fit and finish of the blade and handle. Given its very competitive price, we highly recommend this lovely yanagiba.
This good-looking and attractively priced, medium-length yanagiba is made by Mr. Tani, who has been smithing for 40 years in Sakai City, one of the famed centers of Japanese knife makers. He performs most of the operations by eye and instinct, just like blacksmiths have done for centuries. We admire this ability very much as it is a skill that is disappearing from many shops and manufacturers.
The look of the knife is also as traditional as it gets: simple, elegant, and functional. The upper blade face is slightly polished with the secondary face receiving a satin matte finish. The transition from that to the visible White steel inner core results in a knife of simple beauty. The finely engraved kanji script and traditional octagonal magnolia wood handle, with buffalo horn ferrule, complete this great-looking picture.
We really like blacksmiths who do most of the work themselves and Tani-san not only makes all of his blades by hand, he laminates the steel too. In the case of this stunning yanagiba, his steel of choice is the popular Shirogami 2 high carbon steel. This particular alloy is favored by many blacksmiths and knife users, especially in the making of traditional yanagibas. The inner core is hammer-forged ni-mai style with a soft iron cladding. The single bevel blade is finished to the highest standards and features a lovely transition at the primary grind between the cladding and the blade edge. All of the work is carried out by Tani-san himself.
The octagonal handle is made from magnolia wood with a buffalo horn ferrule. This is a very fine yanagiba that is entirely made by one man. Given the very affordable price, it represents an amazing opportunity to own a classic Japanese slicer made in the traditional way.
The most important aspect of this style and length of blade is to ensure that the fish is cut with a single and light action. This minimizes the damage caused to the cellular structure of the ingredient which would result from the use of a rough sawing action. The added length of the 300mm blade makes this task easier than with a shorter variety. Of course you do need some serious board space to utilize its full size.
Shirogami #2 steel is used in the core construction of the blade with a hagane (or cladding) of soft carbon steel outside. This is hand forged in the ni-mai style of awase which enhances the strength and durability of the knife.
Of course like all three traditional Japanese kitchen knives, it is a single bevel design. So, as is the case with all single bevel knives, this one is only suitable for right-handed users. Like all similar constructions, the carbon blade requires care with cleaning and drying to reduce the chances of corrosion and discoloration. The beautiful slim blade is complimented by a traditional octagonal handle made from Magnolia wood and Buffalo horn for the ferrule.

The collaboration between these two men has produced this gem of a knife line. These beautiful knives offer lovely looks, excellent grinds and top-notch Blue #2 steel, and a unique iron cladding that is layered and looks like damascus but with a cloudy appearance that is very Japanese. The knives are finished with gorgeous ebony octagonal handles with blond buffalo horn ferrules.
I did not like the perpendicular ridges to the edge,on the blade.
These ridges would make vegetables stick to the blade.
I polished the side and fixed the issue.
The balance,ease of maintenance,edge holding,and handle comfort of these knives exceeds everything else in my quiver.
I’ll report back after the first year of use.
Compared to the set I had before (hand me downs of unknown brand) these cut like a dream. I haven’t hit them with a sharpener yet,because they don’t seem to need it.
I’d highly recommend these to someone looking for a lightweight alternative to European style knives.
Tojiro is well known for their production knives but few people realize they have a team of traditional blacksmiths under the supervision of Tomo Matsumura and they turn out exceptional knives like these beauties made with 63 layer damascus.||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|toatstdagy241||item-1||solidtemplate||21wehagy||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/tojiro-atelier-stainless-damascus-gyuto-210mm-148.png||||||Tojiro Atelier VG10 Damascus Gyuto 210mm||TA-G210||resources > gyutos > gyutos210mm > 21wehagy > ||Knife Types > Gyutos > Gyutos 210mm > 210mm Western Handled Gyutos > ||346.000||346.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||Elevate Your Cooking Skills with the Tojiro Atelier VG10 Damascus Gyuto 210mm. Experience the perfect balance of form and function with this knife, which boasts a VG10 stainless steel blade with a sharp and long-lasting edge and a breathtaking nashiji damascus design. Expertly crafted by Matsumura and his skilled crew at the Tojiro factory in Sanjo City, these knives deliver exceptional sharpness that can compete with even the finest stainless steel blades. Upgrade your kitchen game and unleash your culinary potential with this unbeatable blend of style and performance.
Tomo Matsumura, who is based in Sanjo City, Japan, is the blacksmith responsible for crafting this knife. He and his crew at the new Tojiro factory handcraft each knife to perfection, ensuring that every detail is carefully considered. The blade is hammer forged, which means that it is shaped by hand using traditional techniques, resulting in a unique and beautiful finish.
Overall, the Tojiro Atelier VG10 Damascus Santoku knife is an excellent choice for anyone looking to elevate their kitchen game with a high-quality, beautiful, and high-performance knife.
Crafted with premium Japanese knife steel, VG10, this blade delivers unparalleled sharpness and maximum edge retention. Its convex ground blade ensures that the edge lasts longer, making it a durable and effortless tool to sharpen.
The VG10 Clad blade features a sleek half-blasted finish, while the core is made of VG10, and the outer layers are constructed with 13 chrome stainless steel. The handle is crafted from reinforced, laminated wood for superior grip and control.
Experience the precision and sharpness of Tojiro, proudly made in Japan.
The nakiri is a traditional Japanese style of knife designed to efficiently prep vegetables and fruits. The taller blade gives the knife excellent cutting power and stability through larger cuts and the flatter edge profile makes this pattern ideal for chopping.
The handle is made from reinforced black pakkawood, which is a tough but light material widely used in professional circles. The thin grinds and partial tang reduce the weight of this blade and make it an easy-to-use cutter for most home cooks or those wanting a knife for more rugged or portable use.
In fact, the blade is the same as their professional models with VG10 as the core steel, clad with a 13-chrome stainless steel. That means it achieves both professional sharpness and easy maintenance, but at a reduced price. The blade is set to an appropriate thickness for home use so that it is able to hold and cut food with less stress while aiding in ease of sharpening.
135mm is a medium length blade for a petty. This makes it a versatile cutting tool around the kitchen. Board cutting and handheld processes are both within the scope of this blade, along with the ability to take on garnishes and artistic style cutting needs. This is a stout and rigid knife that flies through herbs and other small items with ease.
Experience the extraordinary combination of affordability and quality with this santoku. It serves as the perfect entry point into the world of Japanese knives, allowing you to explore this unique blade style without breaking the bank. Additionally, it's an excellent companion for your backyard barbecues or camping adventures. These knives offer exceptional value, crafted with top-notch materials. Prepare to be amazed by the impeccable construction and finish, especially considering the surprisingly affordable price.
Revolutionize your cooking experience with the Tojiro Basic santoku knife — a great knife at an unbeatable value.
The blade has a full tang and a composite wood handle which is attached with three stainless rivets. The handle not only looks good but feels comfortable and secure during use.
We are quite amazed at the high quality of this simple kitchen knife given its extraordinarily low price.
The bird’s beak shape of this 70mm paring knife excels at in-hand peeling applications. Many professional cooks love this design as it allows one to tourne vegetables, a staple technique in French cuisine, with unparalleled ease. The stamina wood handle is perfectly sized and contoured for maneuverability and is completely flush with the bolster and rivets. Incredibly light and ergonomic in feel, this knife is designed to prevent hand fatigue through prolonged peeling work.
The knife is asymmetrically ground, exhibiting a flat grind on the left hand side of the blade and a convex grind on the right. This blade and edge grind will make for an exceptionally sharp edge that will guide true and release rinds, skin, or other peeled matter prodigiously.
It’s hard to beat this one for the price and quality.
I like to cook and just recently decided to get some high quality knives.
This Tojiro seems to be up there with some selling for much more.
The Tojiro DP 150mm utility knife is a versatile blade that can excel in a myriad of kitchen applications. The dimensions of the knife make it accessible for any user and adept at smaller chopping tasks, peeling, and slicing work. While not designed to plow through bone, this knife can be used for filleting smaller fish and breaking down the chicken with the proper technique.
The Tojiro DP Kiritsuke (it's actually more common to call these knives bunkas in Japan) boasts a super-fine tip that provides excellent performance. It is not as tall as many bunkas and has a bit of a belly to the edge. This allows for some rocking techniques to be employed along with the usual chop and push cuts normally associated with a bunka. *Our sayas DO NOT fit this knife.
The DP series comes with a very nice black micarta handle that exhibits a wonderful fit and finish that will hold up even after many years of hard use. A stainless steel tang and rivets add to the knife’s strength and aesthetic appeal, which is further enhanced by the addition of some nice etched kanji.
For the price, there are very few other knives that can compete in overall quality of construction and performance. Truly an excellent value is provided with these blades.
This Gift Set has 3 knives that are some of the most popular sizes at a discount. Each set contains the following:
All in all this is a superb knife and a screaming bargain at the price.
The Tojiro DP gokujo is very similar to a Western boning or fillet knife and should be a familiar pattern for most cooks. The accentuated curvature of the blade makes this knife particularly good at filleting smaller fish like trout, stripers, or red snapper, as well as boning work that may require a thinner, more dexterous blade.
Service was excellent as well,and shipping was very fast.
Amazingly sharp right out of the case. I let it go while resting it on a tomato and it fell right through! The knife is also very comfortable in my hand for periods of time.
The Tojiro DP 180mm gyuto is an excellent knife for those who want the versatility provided by a gyuto pattern but are either lacking copious work space or prefer smaller knives for the heightened dexterity. While a standard length for many Western chef knives, 180mm is considered small for a Japanese gyuto.
The western handle offers familiarity whilst the blade can easily be honed to high octane performance.
The fit and finish on this knife is good,and the sharpness is excellent. The knife sharpens fairly easily too!
Highly highly recommended.

Given its high performance and reasonable price (cheaper than most Henckels and Wusthof),this knife is a bargain and is a standard.
Great service and a great product. thank you!
Arrived in great shape and in a timely matter. Was razor sharp out of the box. No complaints.
thank you CKTG!
My dad loved the knife! It was exactly what he wanted. The price was very competitive. shipped quick. I would recommend you.
I received my Tojiro DP 210mm gyuto today. I cut up some onions and potatoes with it. The knife worked flawlessly. The blade went thru the onions and potatoes like they were not there.
For the price this knife is a great deal,period....
Thanks Mark for your comments on this knife...
I work in a high volume production kitchen and had always dreaded having to cut chicken with our stock knives. I had been wanting a good knife for home use anyway and my Exec Chef told me only Japanese and I am glad he did! With a little research I feel I got the best bang for the buck! I use this at work and at home on my third week and darn that blade is still sharp....Oh yeah cutting chicken at work is kind of fun now I can cut it thinner,faster and the cuts are so much cleaner...OOPS forgot to mention the knife is so light (yet balanced) I feel a lot less fatigued!
My Exec Chef is so impressed with it he says he will probably buy one and he owns knives costing 4 or 5 times more than this!
I have seen many very sharp knives,I’m familiar with a nice edge so I expected to have to sharpen the knife when I got it. I was completely blown away by the edge as I received it. It is absolutely terrific,the knife looks great as well,the box it came in is even top notch. After having the opportunity to use the knife I’m extremely pleased and I’ve already ordered more as gifts. The price is right,it will be easy to sharpen and as always,when dealing with Mark and Sue I got Executive Service,I’m a happy man.
This gyuto in 210mm format is a heavier middleweight knife by Japanese standards though substantially lighter than many Western equivalents. The edge profile performs well through most cutting styles including rocking, push and pull cutting, and slicing. Being a touch longer than 210mm, this knife will be a wonderful transition for those used to working with 8"-9" Western chef knives and will be capable of handling all but the very largest ingredients.
The blade is excellent and it extremely sharp right out of the box,and its edge has held up since I’ve been using it. The handle is a bit bulky,but with a pinch grip it is a non-issue...at $100 you can’t go wrong and its a perfect way to get into the love of Japanese knives.
Out of the box,the edge is decently sharp with just a little bit of hesitation in the paper-slice test. But a little bit of work on the stones will get the edges hair-splitting sharp. Compared to Blue Steel blades,Tojiro DPs are noticeably heavier,which may be good or bad depending on preference. The Eco-wood handle is comfortable and the general F&F is excellent. Finally,the stain-resistant steel keeps the blade looking like new.
First use was tomato caprese salad,three pounds of squash,cucumbers,and zucchini,smoked saussage,five pounds of onions,two heads of garlic,five pounds of tomatoes,and three pounds of mushrooms. Sharp from beginning to end!
I will say though,if you’re pretty handy with the whet stones,a little work and it will be even sharper.
Excellent knife! Especially for the price!
Finally,my DP has the dubious distinction of having sent more cooks to the ER than any other knife I own. Maybe it’s so unassuming that people don’t realize how sharp it is but it’s cut four cooks badly enough to be sent to the ER with a combined total of 49 stitches. ;)
Highly recommended!
The Blade comes very nice out the box with a good edge. It’s well balanced and very versatile; It’s a steal for the price and in my humble opinion much better than knives twice it’s price.
The only thing that I wasn’t in love with was the handle,as I have relatively small hands. That being said the handle is a little too big for me,but nothing that hinders the performance of the knife.
All in all I would recommend it to any one as it’s a pleasure to use and own.
The Tojiro DP 240mm gyuto is a favorite among those transitioning from softer, heavier, Western knives into the world of fine Japanese kitchen knives. While longer than many Western chef knives found in the home kitchen, the excellent balance and manageable weight of this gyuto allow users to experience heightened dexterity and speed while also benefiting from the additional cutting power of a longer knife. This format is also favorite among professional cooks and home cooks looking for more versatility in a gyuto. The convex geometry of the blade separates even the densest of ingredients with ease and is yet another reason why this knife is a dream to use. Fit and finish is excellent and the handles are absolutely bomb proof, able to withstand the rigors of a professional kitchen with aplomb.
Salar
If you are new to knives and are looking for a starter knife ... simply put this thing outperforms and out classes almost anything in this price range and is a better deal all around if looking at the Shun. The blade has a better all around profile,more versatile,feels lighter to me,thinner,and uses the same steel for less money. The handle (specifically on this 270) is the only thing to consider.
Fit and finish may very but it’s really nullified with Mark @ CKTG’s service. Inspect your knife and make sure the handle has no gaps or issues and if it does he’s getting you one with no issues. Out of 3 I have seen new,only one had issues in the handle. Check one out!

Blade length:
• along edge 270mm/10.6”
• heel to tip 265mm/10.4”
Blade thickness:
• at heel: 2.2mm/.08”
• mid point: 2mm/.07”
• 2cm from point: 1mm/.04
Blade width at heel: 51mm/2”
Handle Dimentions:
• length from front of handle bolster: 13cm/5.1”
• width: 18mm/.71”
• height at center rivet: 28mm/1.1
Weight:
311g that’s 11oz… This was a surprise since the 10” Henckels (French pattern blade) I have been using for the past 19 years weighs 277g or 9.8oz More on weight and dynamic balance later. Just picking them up they feel about the same.
Balance point:
Right between the rear edge of the heel and the etched in “DP” so when held in a traditional pinch grip,the weight sits square in the center of your hand… The 10” Henckels is more blade heavy. The Tojiro blade floats ever so slightly as you hold it waiting for your direction.
Fit and Finish:
Pretty good. Again they are spending their efforts on the blade. You can get a Masamoto with the same basic blade and perhaps a slicker grip,but the 270mm VG series gyuto will set you back over $200. I got this plus a 120mm petty for about $180
Handling and Cutting impressions:
I received the knife in 2 days just as was expected. (Great service) I was pretty sold on getting a 240mm but they were temporarily sold out and started looking seriously at the 270. I thought “What’s a couple cm in length?” Well it is a big knife. One of my first jobs out of high school was as a breakfast cook at a university dorm. Our kitchen was stocked with a couple of those white handled 10-11” Mundial chef knives. I thought my shiny new 10” Henckels was a svelt race car compared to those things… I thought “Hey I can handle a full sized knife,” so I ordered the 270mm.
It’s a big knife… I said that already… Seriously though it is thin and feels good in the hand especially when you get it going. Though it is not super quick it will not leave you with the sensation of wielding a fire poker. Think of it like a sports car with manual (non-power) steering. Feels a bit heavy in the parking lot,but once you get it going,it comes to life. I figured it would do big stuff great,so I did some smaller work with it to see how it would perform for an every day kind of slice and dice job.
Brunoise an Onion: It did fine. It wedged far less than my old German. Slightly better than my Chinese cleaver too. Not as well as one of those sub 2mm thin Gyutos but hey,If you have 3-4 hundred dollars you can have what ever you want. It is only a little sticky for the horizontal cuts but that’s also where you are applying a little pressure to the top of the onion. It did quite well over all.
Julienne a Carrot: Great,very little wedging. Again it didn’t slide through the carrot like tofu but it made thin accurate sticks and was easier to control for this task than a cleaver and didn’t wedge like a German Kochsmesser. Also,the longer length gives your axis of rotation a longer arc,so you don’t end up with tapered carrot sticks even if you keep the tip of the knife on the board.
Julienne a small chili pepper: Silly easy
Ripe cherry tomato slicing: It did fine but struggled more here than at other tasks,though to be fair,this has been with the factory edge which is quite good oob. I’ll take it to the stones after a couple weeks to see how sharp it can get. I’ll likely leave the factory bevels alone and just polish the existing edge.
Handling: Here is where it does well and seems smaller than it is. As I mentioned above,because the balance point is right at the hand,it is very predictable and goes where you point it. It isn’t nose heavy but carries some width toward the tip (the spine slopes down to the edge rather suddenly) giving you that flat minimal rocker blade profile if a French Chef knife with more bade width down the length… good for scooping stuff off the board. It is almost the reverse profile of a German blade.
If you cut your teeth on a big knife and like the solid feel of some steel in your hand this is your knife. It has a stiff substantial blade,pretty quick handling and good balanced. You can also sleep well at night knowing that it will never be too small for anything (in the kitchen)
I’ve enjoyed using this knife,though I still grab the Global or my Victorinox/Forschner 9" depending on what I’m working on. This may be due to my cutting board being a little too small for the long and fairly flat-profiled blade. Speaking of the profile,not only is it nice and flat,but the spine is perfectly flat and works well for scraping ingredients off the cutting board.
It’s noticeably trickier to sharpen than my other blades as it doesn’t give you a giant burr after a few strokes. Of course it also stays sharp much longer.
Overall a fantastic knife to own,and hard to beat at this price.
Like its smaller brethren, the Tojiro DP 270mm gyuto benefits from a convex grind, versatile edge profile, and quality fit and finish. The additional length makes this blade incredibly versatile for those who are comfortable with the larger size and additional weight of the knife. One of the many benefits of moving up the size spectrum is the longer sweet spots to be found along the edge which makes cutting ingredients of virtually any size a breeze.
It came nicely sharpened out of the box and very usable. It has sharpened up on my stones to a scary edge!
I own a powdered steel Honesuki from another well known maker that costs twice as much and offers no benefit over the Tojiro in terms of performance,looks,or sharpness.
This is not just a value its a GREAT buy!
An additional plus is that it can be used as a petty knife as well. So if you are looking to reduce kit size,this is a great option.
• Single bevel blade (right hand) sharpen right side more and de-burr/minimally sharpen the left. Factory edge was quite good. No nicks for flat spots visible under 30x microscope.
• VG-10 blade core w/ stainless tang and lamination
• Blade length along edge: 150mm - 5.75” edge is slightly curved.
• Thickness at handle: 2,5mm - 3/32”
• Thickness 1cm from tip:,75mm - 1/32”
• Blade width at heel: 38mm – 1.5”
• Blade width at point clip: 8,5mm – 5/16”
• Point of balance: Joint of handle scales and bolster:
• The Japanese Honesuki vs. Europenan boning knife: The tip reaches into joints with what is a narrow sheep’s foot profile that nips through ligaments to remove chicken legs and the like. The deeper blade at the heel allows the cutting edge to extend beyond your fingers so you can use it to trim fat and gristle against a cutting board with the whole sweep of the blade and not just the curved tip of a western boning knife. This knife will work well as a small chef knife for mincing things,good all ‘round utility blade.
This is a great knife for the following people:
• Home cook getting into their first Japanese knife
• Pro who needs a hard working piece for their kit. If it walks away it won’t make you cry.
• The knife snob who wants a boning knife they can use without fear of using on trickier tasks that their “baby” might not handle (applicable to Pro as well)
It’s hard to think of much I’d change. Fit ’n’ finish is pretty good,too. It seems Tojiro has put some effort into this lately,as well as making sure the factory edge is good. I give this one the "thumbs up" and five stars. My favorite Tojiro...well,probably tied with my 240mm Western Deba! ;)
Needless to say,Chef Knives To Go has it all: knives,price,and service.
I’ve never owned a honesuki before but I think this is a great intro. The knife itself is very stout. It’s hefty,but being handle heavy makes it feel much lighter,but none of that is a complaint.
Lastly,the finish on the handle isn’t absolutely perfect,but that’s also why I’m not paying $400 for it. Great value.
The fit and finish of this knife is great. The edge is razor sharp out of the box. For the price this seems like a great knife,but only time will tell.
had to return my first because the edge was not ground straight,which would have made the 1-sided sharpening next to impossible. mark exchanged happily with no questions asked,once again proving out his fantastic customer service.
the geometry on my replacement is much better.
i still think that if i had it to do over again i’d spend more and get one that had personal attention paid to it during construction.
i’ll probably do that anyway and upgrade in a year or so.
in the end this knife has done exactly what i wanted it to,which is answer the question: do i really have a place for a honesuki in my collection? the answer is a definite YES.
i only wish there were more wa-handled options without the darkened kurouchi finish. i’m ready for that fad to go away.
Honesuki knives are specifically designed for breaking down poultry but can be used for a variety of boning tasks equally as well. The Tojiro DP honesuki is a single-bevel, asymmetrically ground knife with a concave grind on the left-hand side of the knife. Most traditional Japanese patterned fillet and boning knives are much thicker and heavier than Western style equivalents, and this is also the case with the Tojiro DP. The added weight and thickness provide the necessary heft to move through cartilage and joints while also separating meat from bone. Given the amount of steel that is used in honesuki knives for the length, they are usually far more expensive than a Western style knife. Despite this, Tojiro still offers this pattern at an incredibly affordable price and as such is an excellent option for those looking to explore traditional Japanese design.
Of course, the outstanding physical feature of all kiritsuke knives is that fascinating looking tip. This results in a knife with a slightly different balance than a regular gyuto. The length of the knife is all on the cutting edge so there is less mass above the tip from the spine. The slim tip is also great at getting into tight spaces and doing detail work normally associated with thinner style blades.
This is an unusual kiri in that it is double-beveled (most kiritsukes are single-sided blades). This feature enhances durability at the edge and gives an ambidextrous personality to the blade overall. It also makes the knife much easier to sharpen and maintain.
DP knives offer an excellent treatment of VG-10 stainless steel which takes a silky edge without compromising retention or durability. The VG-10 core is clad in softer stainless steel which delivers an effortless sharpening experience and adds structural ductility and support to the blade. This line is constructed with a black micarta handle and stainless steel bolster.
Please note: our sayas DO NOT fit this knife. The blade guard linked on this page fits well.
Five stars,only because I can’t give it six! For the price I can’t imagine how you could better this knife.
Super sharp thin blade - cuts carrots,onions,etc like going through butter.
Weight,balance,size and grip are perfect.
Very attractive knife.
p.s. get the saya,it’s pretty sexy with it.
The Tojiro DP 165mm nakiri is a traditional Japanese style of knife designed to efficiently prep vegetables and fruits. The taller blade gives the knife excellent cutting power and stability through larger cuts and the flatter edge profile makes this pattern ideal for chopping. While a tip is absent on a nakiri, it is actually a quite versatile knife that performs very well in most vegetable cutting applications.
Please note: the felt protector fits much better than the saya.
Excellent value.
This range of knives marries Western ergonomic sensibilities and patterns with fine Japanese steel, refinement, and forging processes. The resulting product is one that is immediately accessible to Western consumers, yet provides a level of performance that meets highly discriminating standards. Truly, Tojiro DP knives are an excellent entry to the world of Japanese cutlery.
This 90mm paring knife features a nicely proportioned Western stamina wood handle designed to cope with the demands of a professional kitchen with top-notch fit and finish. No gaps or major differences in surface level will be found at the contact points. The knife excels at small slicing and chopping tasks, but really shines when applied in dexterous detail work and peeling.
Relatively thin so a bit of flex in the blade.
Handle needs a bit of tweaking to be comfortable (sanding with a bit of wet/dry).
A great knife for the price.
Truly a bargain.
This 120mm petty from Tojiro is perfect for smaller slicing tasks and larger peeling work. This format is also popular for use as a smaller utility knife which can be applied to number of everyday activities that don’t require the chopping power of a gyuto, but for which a paring knife would be insufficient. Depending upon the sort of work regularly performed, either this knife or a 150mm petty will be a staple in most professional and home cooks’ arsenals.
The DP series boasts excellent treatment of the VG-10 core steel which results in extreme keenness without sacrificing edge integrity or retention. The core VG-10 steel is laminated with softer stainless steel to enhance the ease at which the knife can be sharpened and provides an element of support and ductility to the harder core. The Tojiro 180mm Petty has a very nicely tapered spine which makes the knife feel light and nimble in the hand. The slim profile is absolutely lovely, giving the knife an ability to handle smaller prep work and boning tasks with ease.
The blade is coupled to a durable Western handle made of black micarta which is attached to the superbly finished stainless bolster and tang with three stainless steel rivets. Tojiro DP is one of the bestselling introductory lines of Japanese knives on the market and this fine petty is a perfect introduction to the brand and Japanese knives in general.
The Tojiro DP 210mm petty sees quite a bit of work as a fish and meat slicing knife where work space is an issue or the surface area of the object being cut does not require a very long edge. This knife is also adept at smaller prep work and boning tasks. While not as versatile as a gyuto, it is a better slicer and can be put to use for many of the same tasks. This knife is a mainstay for chefs who do a lot of meat and seafood prep alongside some smaller veggie work.
The Tojiro DP 170mm santoku is a hybrid style of knife combining some characteristics of a gyuto and a nakiri. Excellent at vegetable work, santokus are also a multi-purpose blade that many chefs use in lieu of a gyuto. Indeed, many home cooks find this pattern accessible and easy to use for the vast majority of daily cutting requirements.

The Tojiro DP serrated bread knife in 215mm is a perfect knife for cutting through crusty and soft breads as well as other slicing applications. Many times, cooks operate under the belief that serrated blades are one dimensional in character. This is not the case. This knife will do well slicing soft fruits and vegetables as well as meats.
The Tojiro DP 240mm sujihiki is a medium length knife by sujihiki standards. These knives excel as slicers of all but the largest roasts and fillets. The double-bevel edge on sujihikis makes them ideal for a number of applications. In addition to slicing duty, this knife will be adept at filleting fish and smaller vegetable prep.
Edge retention and stability are great,but there are some minor F&F issues. This knife has the extra boxy tojiro handles and may require some sanding to get the rough spots in the handle/tang smoothed out.
Tojiro’s range-topping 270mm sujihiki is an excellent knife for all slicing applications. Large enough to handle large roasts, turkey, and fish fillets, yet nimble enough to serve on fillet duty and veggie prep, this is a great knife at a great price.
The scaler features four rows of blades for efficient removal of fish scales while inflicting minimal damage to the sometimes delicate skin. This simple design and shape makes the task of removing scales very easy before you prepare your fresh fish. This is a very efficient design that gets the job done easily and efficiently.
Constructed of solid high quality 18/8 stainless steel, the Tojiro fish scraper/scaler has a nicely formed handle for comfortable use and quick and easy cleanup. Many similar tools are made from light and thin stamped steel but not this one. It is built to last a lifetime, like all of the Tojiro Pro utensils, using top of the line materials and precision manufacturing.||||||||http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/tofiscsc.html||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|fucufachcl||item-1||solidtemplate||cleavers||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/fuji-cutlery-fa-70-chinese-style-cleaver-226.png||||||Tojiro Fuji Cutlery Chinese Style Cleaver||FA-70||resources > cleavers > ||Knife Types > Cleavers > ||46.000||46.000 ||||||||||||1||1||1||0||||||||This Fuji Cutlery Chinese-style cleaver is made by Tojiro and features a slightly curved edge which makes it easier to use.

The blade has profile is flat from the heal to about the mid-point. From there it has a gentle upward curve towards the tip. The blade has a very nice satin finish.
If anyone is looking for an upgrade for their bread knife,then look no further.
before,simply amazing!
I got one of these. I thought it would be a nice modest knife - nothing special but a longer bread knife than my classic Shun.
The factory edge is Exceptional. A factory serrated edge that push cuts paper! This type of wavy serrated edge is easy to sharpen and maintain as well. I’d consider this knife a bargain easily rivaling it’s competition for WAY less money. I’d consider this bread knife as standard equipment for a knife roll. Cheap enough to get one for home and one for work.
Ken
It slices through around 40 loaves of bread a day. The edge cuts cleanly through crusty tops and most slices can be done with one stroke.
On a side note the knife also preforms beautifully cutting cherry tomatoes as shown in the demo video.
Conclusion = good price,correct length,smooth cutting action,great buy.
Easily makes short,clean work of pastry and bread with firm crusts and soft interiors.
There’s a reason why it sells like hotcakes and I wouldn’t need to buy any other bread knife as long as this stays unchanged.
Fantastic knife.
kk
Easy to clean,easy on your hands. Would buy them again.
The Tojiro pro kitchen shears are very high quality stainless steel shears that are made with a one-piece construction for durability, with the blades, tangs and handles cast in one piece. The micro-serrated blades are 4” long within an overall length of 8”, and the 3” loop handles are of equal size and shape for right- or left-handed use.
The Tojiro shears also feature a bottle opener, jar opener, and two screwdriver tips. They have an adjustable pivot joint that separates at 95 degrees for thorough cleaning and sharpening. These have a completely stainless steel construction and come apart for easy cleaning and sharpening.
These shears are super smooth and super sharp. The solid stainless steel construction feels sturdy in your hand, while the three-layer blade is ideal for general scissor use since it will retain its edge much longer, making these a multi-purpose tool for use all around the house or office.

We have been selling the ever-popular DP line for many years with users loving the price-to-performance ratio of these ubiquitous knives.
We are now offering a couple of new additions to the Tojiro line which we are certain will be popular with both home and professional chefs. The knives are a step up from the DP range. They feature an inner core of the highly regarded “super steel” called R-2. This is also known as SG-2 and it is a powdered metallurgical alloy. This is a very hard steel that has recently found favor with many leading blacksmiths. The core steel is clad with softer stainless steel.
Powdered metallurgical steels are high carbon, high alloy stainless steels that have been powdered into a very fine grain and then sintered back together. This results in steel that has consistent properties throughout the manufacturing process.
This 3 pc set comes with the most popular 3 pieces in the line at a great price. The set includes a 210mm gyuto, 170mm santoku, and 135mm petty knife. These blades have well-executed convex grinds.

The Tojiro Pro line has improved grinds and better edge consistency as compared to the DP series. It is also thinner behind the edge and the out of the box edge is far better realized. The convex grind is particularly well done, resulting in a blade that cuts efficiently while releasing food with ease.
It is a fairly robust knife in terms of weight and stiffness. The 49mm blade height is about average for a 240mm length. The knife has a nice flat spot towards the heel with a gentle belly from half way along the slender blade. The tip is finely shaped and ready for intricate slicing work. It has a fairly universal profile that will find favor with most chefs, push cutters or rockers. The blade is mated to a well-finished stainless bolster which in turn is attached to a comfortable and well-finished black Western style handle.
We think these R-2 knives form Tojiro represent a wonderful opportunity for chefs of all kinds to experience a great steel at a bargain price.
The reinforced laminated handle is very durable and tough, not easily deformed, and strong against deterioration over time. It has a stainless steel bolster that is very hygienic and prevents stains and dirt from accumulating between the blade and handle.
We are now offering a couple of new additions to the Tojiro line which we are certain will be popular with both home and professional chefs. The knives are a step up from the DP range. They feature an inner core of the highly regarded “super steel” called R-2. This is also known as SG-2 and it is a powdered metallurgical alloy. This is very hard steel which has recently found favor with many leading blacksmiths. The core steel is clad with softer stainless steel.
Powdered metallurgical steels are high carbon, high alloy stainless steels that have been powdered into a very fine grain and then sintered back together. This results in a steel that has consistent properties throughout the manufacturing process.
This Tojiro Pro R-2 petty has a really well-executed convex grind. It is beautifully thinned behind the edge with commensurate levels of fit and finish. If you are seeking a knife that is a step above the DP line, but one that continues to offer a wonderful price-to-performance ratio, the Tojiro Pro R-2 petty could be just what you are looking for.

It will work with any 50/50 beveled knife from Tojiro to Shun. The sharpener works in two stages. The first is a rough/medium grit and the second is a medium/fine grit. Simply place the knife sharpener under the faucet to moisten the ceramic whetstones and run the knife blade from the heel to the tip through the coarse whetstone slot 5 times, and repeat the same method in the fine whetstone slot to finish.
It is just as easy to clean as it is to use. The top portion of the sharpener can be taken apart from the base to rinse under the faucet. Be sure to dry it off completely before storing away. The body of the sharpener is made of durable stainless steel and features a rubber base for sturdiness. The base is made from polypropylene resin and elastomer resin.

I personally chose this knife because of the cost but dont let that fool you,it is a great knife. At the price,I do not believe there is a better deal out there for a 180mm deba.
Yes,the handle is nothing special,but certainly doesn’t detract from the knives appeal at least to me. It’s the blade that I found to be so wonderful! I couldn’t wait to clean my first fish using this knife and was not disappointed to say the least. I used it clean a Bluefin tuna and some small Mahi we caught this past weekend and it was a revelation. I will never go back to western style blades for fish work. The knife was super sharp out of the box and the weight and shape was just awesome to use.
A great knife and even better value to me!
OUTSTANDING deba for the price. So far it’s been a dream fabbing striped bass,bream and salmon with this knife.
The heft and shape of the blade is designed specifically to remove the head and fillet fish. Its thickness, as well as it's obtuse angle on the back of the heel, make quick work of cutting off the heads of fish without damaging the rest of the product. The rest of the blade is then used to ride against the fish bones, separating the fillet. The blade is attached to a Ho wood handle with a plastic ferrule. These knives are known for their superior performance for a very good price.
Important design points for it are as follows:
This is a great value carbon steel knife for those looking to develop their sushi and sashimi prep skills, or just looking for a better protein slicer. Please note the handles on these are installed with a gapped machi and it's called "Tokyo Style". It's supposed to harken back to the Katana and it represents the place where a Tsuba (hilt) would be installed on a sword. See photo #4 to see it. It's not a mistake.

The line boasts a core of premium VG-10 steel clad with 37 layers of softer stainless finished in a beautiful Damascus pattern that is unique to each blade. Tojiro’s treatment of the VG-10 is excellent and the edge gets incredibly sharp, maintaining a high level of keenness through serious use. These knives are considered to be some of the best intros into the world of Japanese kitchen knives for because of the extreme value the bring to market with very, very high performing blades.
The 180mm DP Damascus gyuto is perfectly suited for work in tighter cutting spaces or for those who appreciate the dexterity provided by a smaller blade.

We find the combination of a VG10 core with the rustic look of the hammered kurouchi finish to be both practical and attractive. So while the knife is basic in terms of its finish and materials, it is a package that is easy to maintain and comfortable to use.
VG10 is, hands down, the most favored of all stainless steels in Japanese knife manufacturing. It is used by most makers, from the big guys to the smallest one-man shops. VG10 was developed by the Takefu Specialty Steels Company, so it only makes sense that most of the local smiths employ it. Tojiro endows these knives with some really well executed grinds that will surprise many with their abilities in hand and on the cutting board.
The Tojiro VG10 Hammered Gyuto 180mm is a knife that comes in at a budget price but looks and feels like a much higher priced item. A great starting point for anyone looking to enter the world of Japanese kitchen knives.
Tojiro is expert at getting the best out of VG10 stainless steel. Their excellent treatment of VG10 core steel provides for extreme keenness without sacrificing edge integrity or retention. The core steel is laminated with a softer stainless steel which is given a hammered kurouchi finish. This enhances the ease at which the knife can be sharpened and provides an element of support and ductility to the harder core. It also aids with food release while adding a great aesthetic quality to the blade.
The knife is on the short side of the gyuto scale, coming in at 212mm. It is also very short in height at just 45mm at the heel. This results in a knife that is compact and light while providing the ability to take on smaller ingredients and delicate cutting tasks. So while the knife is simple in terms of its basic design and execution, it offers much in terms of abilities and quality at a really attractive price point.
Starting with a core of VG10 stainless steel, the blade is clad with a soft stainless steel layer which protects the hard core and allows for easy maintenance and sharpening. The cladding is rather unusual in that it is both hammered and finished with a kurouchi coating. This adds to the knife’s practicality and aesthetic attributes.

The knife has some really well-executed grinds and it will surprise many with its abilities. The handle is basic but comfortable and offers a good balance.
In most respects it is standard nakiri fare in terms of its proportions and measurements—thin, tall, stout, and efficient in its given tasks. Don’t mistake this seeming generalness as anything but high praise however. This knife performs. And it does so at a really fair price. A wonderful entry point into the world of Japanese kitchen knives.
The blade is constructed from VG10 and a san mai sandwich of a soft stainless steel. VG10 is one of the most popular stainless steels used in the making of Japanese knives. It is highly regarded for it good edge retention, toughness, and superior stain resistance. It also gets really sharp. The soft stainless cladding is treated to a cool looking kurouchi hammered finish which adds character and a certain amount of extra food release.
This basic knife comes with a simple handle that is easy to hold and control for extra security when performing in-hand work. At the price, this little cutter can be used in many places where one would not necessarily take a more expensive blade.

White #2 steel, also called Shirogami steel, comes from the Hitachi steel mill. It is reactive carbon steel, which means that it will develop a patina over time and you need to take care to keep it dry or it will rust. It is an easily sharpened steel and holds an edge well.

Tsubaki knives are made in a small shop in Nagasaki run by the young blacksmith, Mr. Miyazaki. While young in years, he has great experience in the art of blade-making, first working in the famous Yoshimitsu workshop and then under the tutelage of master blacksmith Ooba-San from Hakata. This last apprenticeship inspired Miyazaki-San to specialize in the Hakata-style knives we feature here.
This is the shortest of the three knives we offer from him and it is a real beauty in hand and in function. Very traditional looks coupled with a fascinating fire-forged kurouchi finish endow the knife with purposeful air and efficient and easy-to-use functionality. It is a blade of many talents: great for regular push cutting and chopping and very adept at tackling finer ingredients and cutting tasks. We think you will enjoy this unique and fun-looking knife.
Mr. Miyazaki was kind enough to write an explanation of the manufacturing process, which we have translated and included in this product description:
"Please let me explain how I produced the first lot of CKTG Original Gyuto. I manually insert Hitachi Aogami #2 steel into quality mild soft iron. I carefully made it annealed into ash of rice straw, which adds carbon powder.
After forging (the steels together), considering the kiritsuke original character, I hardened it (using) pine charcoal at about 800 degrees centigrade. Then (it is) immediately (quenched) in water at about 28 degrees centigrade, to (make) it much tougher. I ground the blade to be what is called a clamshell finish, to have the cutting feeling lighter and (to make) re-sharpening even easier."
Hamaguri is Japanese for clam or clamshell, and it describes a blade ground with convex radiused bevels. Also called an Appleseed or Moran grind, it is produced by grinding the blade on a slack grinding belt.
Miyazaki-san hammer forges these blades from Hitachi Blue Paper #2 carbon steel, and adds a fire-forged kurouchi cladding for extra protection. This endows the already cool looks with a very interesting rustic appearance which complements the weapon-like aesthetic perfectly. Blue #2 is undoubtedly one of the most popular carbon steels used for kitchen knives with a list of enviable characteristics including great edge retention and durability. It is the same basic steel as White #2 but with added chromium and tungsten.
The nakiri is a rectangular vegetable knife with a thin blade. It excels in delicate vegetable cutting and chopping tasks. The Japanese word translates into “knife for cutting greens.” It is a thin blade with a tall profile which enables it to take on the softest or hardest of ingredients without sticking or wedging. This is a great knife to introduce a chef to the breed while remaining easy on the pocketbook.

This is further enhanced with the addition of stainless steel cladding. The cladding is somewhat softer or more ductile, which protects the inner cutting core from shocks. This knife is given a tsuchime or hammered finish to enhance both its food release capabilities and fine aesthetics.

AUS-10 is a high carbon alloy with a content of 1.05%, similar to G3. To overcome the fragile nature of high carbon content, nickel, manganese, and silicon are added to improve the ductility and elasticity of the material. The upside is steel that is easy to sharpen when correctly heat treated. Other elements in this steel include vanadium, chromium, and molybdenum, which gives the steel its elevated resistance to corrosion.
The outstanding difference of this line is that they are virtual lasers with a lovely distal taper. They are thin knives from neck to tip, and as such are very light at just 120g.
The fine blade is matched to a really well-made handle constructed from solid oak. The overall fit and finish is of a high standard. Highly recommended.

The blade is made with a core of G3 (Gin3 or Silver #3) which is excellent stainless steel. The outstanding attribute of G3 is how it echoes the character of Japanese carbon steels, with a hardness similar to Shirogami #2. Its edge retention is only slightly inferior to Shirogami #2, but the fact that it combines ease of sharpening, carbon steel character, and ease of maintenance makes it a great choice for those who don’t want the added work required by a full carbon blade. The core steel is clad with softer stainless steel for added strength and resistance to shocks. The hand-chiseled kanji is a lovely addition to this great-looking gyuto.

But recently these age-old throwbacks have entered a renaissance period as home cooks move to more classic ways of preparing and cooking food.
While there is a bit of skill required to get these pans up to speed, once there they can beat pretty much any other material as far as toughness, ease of cleaning, and general versatility. Once seasoned you will be amazed at how non-stick these pans are. Eggs slide around as if on ice! The hardest crust can be wiped away with a kitchen paper towel!

Considering the very low price point, this knife is well made in terms of grinds and profile. It is a very traditional looking and feeling knife that makes little effort to please in terms of high levels of fit and finish. Rather, the effort has gone into producing a knife that is perfectly fit for purpose while being tough and quite easy to sharpen. The Blue #2 inner core is a great knife steel and together with the good looking kurouchi cladding of soft iron, presents a blade that is tough and will hold an edge for protracted uses.
We are supplying it with a very nice upgraded handle made from red sandalwood and dyed pakka wood for the ferrule.
Blue #2 steel is a very popular alloy for good reason. While it takes a bit more effort to sharpen than its White Paper sibling, it will hold that edge longer. It is also slightly better with corrosion resistance than the White steel.
This is a classic petty in terms of length, while it is somewhat taller than other similar length knives. It is also a bit heavier than most in this size range. This weight is the result of a more robust profile and grind. In turn this affords the blade a nice stiff characteristic.
We have made this fine petty available with an upgraded handle made from red sandalwood with a dyed pakka wood ferrule.

The gyuto, or chef's knife as it is commonly known, is a versatile tool in any kitchen. Its design and substantial edge length make it suitable for a variety of tasks, from slicing small tomatoes to carving a large roast. Many chefs own multiple gyuto knives, and with its wide range of applications, adding another to your collection is a decision you won't regret.

This particular knife is made with Hitachi Shirogami in a santoku style and is rustic and beautiful. The secondary bevel has a natural stone finish.
We love finding new blacksmiths especially when they are offering a limited range of intriguing knives at attractive prices. Such is the case with Yasunori. This is a small blacksmith enterprise that is located in the Miki region of Japan. Yasunori-san is the sole proprietor, forging, heat treating, grinding and edging every blade.
The Yasunori Bunka is a fun and functional kitchen knife. It combines many of the attributes of a nakiri and santoku in a package that is both versatile and efficient. At 165mm, it is a short blade. There is a gentle curve to the belly almost along the entire length of the edge.
It is constructed with a core of Blue #2 carbon steel with an outer layer of a softer stainless steel. It is quite light and together with the short blade length makes for a very nimble cutter. The blade face has been given a nice horizontal brush finish and is decorated with some good looking hand chiseled kanji. The blade is attached to a traditional octagonal handle made from walnut and pakka wood.
This is a really well executed item which has many features not found on knives at this price point. Highly recommended.
Rather than using cost-saving methods like kurouchi finishes and cheap handles, his blades feature attractive brushed lower blade roads and hairline finishes. He even hand engraves the fine kanji script that decorates the blade.
He uses Blue #2 as the core steel which is then covered with a soft stainless awasi. Adding a stainless outer layer reduces maintenance to a minimum and strengthens the blade while reducing weight. Of course, you will need to keep it dry and clean between uses as the core carbon steel will rust if left wet.
This is a classic funayuki in that it has a fairly flat blade profile with relatively little belly. It is a short knife, which is a great complement or replacement for a gyuto or chef knife. It really is a jack of all trades in the kitchen and a bargain for what it represents in materials and execution. We are very pleased to be the first seller of these interesting knives in the USA. We hope that the reaction will be positive and that we can add more designs to his line in the near future.
180mm gyutos are quite unusual in that the gyuto sweet spot and popular size is usually 210mm to 270mm. The shorter length is perfect for those with smaller hands or less board space, or with a need to process smaller ingredients. It’s also just right for people who find long knives unwieldy and hard to handle.
The knife is constructed using Hitachi Blue #2 carbon steel as the inner core, or hagane, with a cladding made from a softer stainless steel. It is a nice light blade, which, when coupled with the short length, makes this a very deft cutter. The face of the blade receives an attractive horizontal brush finish and is adorned with some fine hand-chiseled kanji. It has a 50/50 symmetrical grind, so it’s good to go for left- and right-handed users. The blade is coupled to a traditional octagonal handle made from walnut and pakka wood.
This is a very traditional knife made by a man with an ability to realize his dream from start to finished product.
There are two main styles of nakiri. The most popular is the Kakugata, which is featured here. It has a very square-looking blade with a flat profile. The Higashgata, or Kantogata, is less common and it features a rounded heel and curved cutting edge.
These nice quality knives are a real bargain! They feature Blue #2 steel as the core with a soft stainless cladding to protect and strengthen the cutting steel. The blade is finished with a nice hairline finish and some fine hand-chiseled kanji. It is supplied with a well-made walnut and pakka wood handle.
Yasunori is a very small blacksmith shop located in central Japan and they make knives primarily for their domestic market. CKTG is their first retail customer outside of Japan and we're always excited to bring unique items from small blacksmiths that you can't find anywhere else.
This small knife has big aspirations and will fulfill many roles in your kitchen. The blade shape is fairly conventional for this type of knife, featuring a fine tip and slight belly which will excel with push and pull cutting. The santoku is a wonderful all-around slicer and dicer that is becoming a first-choice blade in many home kitchens. Its tall blade gives increased finger-to-board clearance while its shorter length makes it ideal for handling a wide variety of produce and proteins.
We really like the grinds of this knife, along with the interestingly formed shinogi, most rare in this price range. The Blue #2 core is clad with a soft stainless steel in the san-mai style of awase. The spine is nicely tapered to the tip and the hand engraved kanji really adds to the look and value. Fit and finish are really good at this price and the handle is well made and fitted. An outstanding value in every way.
Yasunori-san crafts this knife out of the very popular stainless steel known as VG-10. VG-10 is a stainless steel with a particularly high carbon content of 1%. It also contains 15% chromium, 1% molybdenum, 0.2% vanadium, 1.5% cobalt, and 0.5% manganese. The steel was first created by the Takefu Special Steel Company and has become the most popular stainless steel used in the making of kitchen knives. Yasunori clads the core steel with multiple layers of a softer stainless steel. The cladding is etched to reveal the lovely damascus pattern. A further hammer treatment is applied to the upper blade road, adding to the great looks while enhancing food release.
The single-piece Western handle is made from black pakka wood which is mated to a stainless bolster and secured with three stainless rivets. Great looks, high performance, and a very keen price make this lovely little gyuto a natural choice for chefs of all kinds looking for an easy to care for and versatile kitchen utensil.
Another notable attribute of Yasunori knives is the bang for the buck quotient they offer. The Yasunori VG-10 Hammered Damascus Nakiri is a great looking knife in every way. It is constructed from VG-10 stainless steel as the inner core. A beautiful cladding of a softer stainless steel damascus is forged to the core steel. The cladding is etched to reveal the lovely ripples associated with this technique. The upper blade road is treated to a hammer finish which accentuates the pattern and aids with food release.
Nakiris are becoming a popular choice in many western kitchens of late. Their compact size and interesting profile have found a new legion of users in both professional and home environments. It is designed to do its designated task as well as possible and it succeeds perfectly in the processing of vegetables of all kinds.
The blade is a mid-length 210mm, which many chefs deem the perfect size for almost every normal kitchen task and kitchen space. It has a good height-to-length ratio for better hand-to-board clearance. The blade is mated to a stainless bolster which in turn is attached to the black western handle. Three rivets are used to attach it to the tang. This is a well-made chef knife that is easy to maintain, and it takes a good edge and holds it. The handle feels comfortable and the overall balance is really well achieved. Add all this to a very fair price and we believe this is a strong new addition to the Yasunori catalog.
Each Yoshikane knife is born from the ancient technique of San Mai hammer forging, ensuring a blade of extraordinary strength and longevity. The core of SKD 12 semi-stainless steel promises an edge that not only retains sharpness with an impressive hardness of HRC 63+ but also offers the convenience of minimal maintenance.

Tanaka-san has employed Blue Paper #1 carbon steel in the making of this blade and his screaming edges, fine grinds, and precise balance are a testament to this great steel and his masterful skills. He has hardened the steel to between 62-64 Rockwell and then applied a beautiful kurouchi finish. The smooth black forger’s scale finish aids in ease of maintenance while adding an aesthetic appeal that is hard to resist!

VG-10 is a cutlery grade stainless steel produced in Japan. The name stands for V Gold 10 ("gold" meaning quality), or sometimes V-Kin-10 (kin means "gold" in Japanese). It is a stainless steel with a high carbon content containing 1% carbon, 15% chromium, 1% molybdenum, 0.2% vanadium, 1.5% cobalt, and 0.5% manganese. All of these relatively small amounts of other metals give the VG-10 steel its most important properties, such as its ability to hold an edge coupled with great durability. It is one reason why the VG-10 label has been so highly prized among so many people, ranging from chefs to knife collectors.

This outer layer is decorated with a beautiful suminagashi (damascus) finish which is etched to further enhance the damascus pattern.
The nakiri is a rectangular vegetable knife with a thin blade. It excels in delicate vegetable cutting and chopping tasks. The Japanese word translates into “knife for cutting greens.” The shape of nakiris differs according to the region of origin: knives in the Tokyo area are rectangular in shape, and knives in the Osaka area (like this one) are called kamagata nakiri and have a rounded corner on the far blunt side.
This particular nakiri is a lovely example of the breed, featuring a great-looking damascus blade coupled with an oval rosewood handle with a black pakka wood ferrule.

Its tall blade offers increased finger to board clearance while its shorter length makes it ideal for handling a wide variety of produce and proteins. These knives are gaining popularity as a replacement to the ubiquitous chef knife for good reason. The symmetrical 50/50 grind coupled to the gently curved belly make this a good choice for cooks of all types and cutting preferences.
The lovely Western rosewood color handle and stainless bolster are perfectly matched to the attractive blade. The Kato VG-10 Suminagashi santoku 180mm combines great looks, abilities, and value.

While the reverse tanto tip is the most obvious design element of the blade, it is the performance that really sets this knife apart. The edge profile is very much like a standard gyuto. A fairly flat profile favors chop and push cutting styles. The difference lies in the taller height, more like a santoku, which many people prefer to shorter height knives especially when a one-knife-does-it-all approach is favored. Then there is the tip. This great looking design element takes the bunka to another level. The tip allows for some really intricate detail work as well as the ability to have it ground super thin, for increased cutting performance.
The Yoshimi bunka is a great rendition of this style knife. It is made from SG2 PM steel. The inner core is clad with a soft stainless steel. It is a light and thin knife that performs as well as it looks...and those looks are quite something. The damascus is stunning and matches the lovely rosewood handle to perfection. This is art and science and age old techniques rolled into one beautiful package.
This new line of knives bearing his name is made from a very special steel called SG2. This is a high tech powdered metallurgical stainless steel that is used for making surgical instruments, metal cutting tools, and kitchen knives. It possesses a high edge retention ability while being moderately wear resistant and easy to sharpen. The core steel is clad with a softer stainless steel to protect and add strength to the blade. The cladding is a multi-layer Damascus construct that is quite beautiful in its execution and finish. Our A saya is too short and our B saya is loose. We recommend the felt protector.
The 180mm gyuto is a popular size for many home and professional chefs. Its compact dimensions are perfect for smaller hands or work areas, but it is still large enough to take on almost every type and size of ingredient. The knife is well balanced and has a rigid feel to it. Coupled to a fine looking and well executed handle made from rosewood and pakka wood, this is an easy to care for blade fit for any chef in any circumstance.

The cladding is a multi-layer Damascus construct that is beautiful in its execution and finish.
Nakiri knives are a fairly new look in the west but a staple in most Japanese kitchens. Their primary job is to process vegetables (“nakiri” means “greens” in Japanese), but they are also a very good option for other cutting tasks in the kitchen.
Petty knives are small utility knives of Japanese design. They can vary significantly in both profile and size, going from 75mm to 210mm. Petty knives are very similar to the common western paring or utility knife and are adept at many small and detailed cutting tasks. They also excel at preparing garnishes and other artistic endeavors.
This is one pretty petty! The knife is made from SG2 powdered stainless with a multi-layer damascus cladding made from a softer stainless alloy. This results in a knife that is both easy to use and to sharpen. It holds a great edge and is very durable.

The inner core of R-2 is then covered in a multi-layer damascus cladding made from a soft stainless steel. These are really easy knives to maintain.
The santoku featured here is of average size at 165mm with a blade height of 46mm. These knives really are great all-arounders. Their compact size belies their many abilities. In fact, they are starting to replace gyutos and chef knives in many kitchens and knife rolls.
The stunning blade is matched to a semi-custom handle made from ebony with a dyed pakka wood ferrule.

Bunkas are general-purpose knives tackling a wide range of common kitchen tasks. Their reverse tanto profile gives the knives a dexterous and delicate tip and a unique and eye-catching aesthetic. These can be used any time a gyuto or santoku might be called for. Since bunkas have fairly flat profiles they are most adept at push cutting and chopping rather than rock chopping.
The Kato VG-10 Damascus wa-bunka is a well-balanced, well-made, and extremely fine-looking piece of kitchen cutlery. Handmade by a genuine master blacksmith, and all at a truly affordable price. Highly recommended.
We were the first US distributor to handle these wonderful creations which now run into 4 basic product groups.
The AS line is, as the name implies, made from the well-liked Aogami Super high carbon steel. Aogami Super steel is the highest grade YSS steel. It contains high percentages of carbon, chrome, and tungsten to increase hardness and improve edge retention and corrosion resistance. This results in a knife that will keep a fine edge longer than many on the market. Its HRC is approximately 62-63. The carbon-rich steel is then inserted into soft iron using the traditional methods. This san-mai construction gives the inner core protection and strength and results in a blade that can take and keep a super fine edge while remaining light and strong.
The Yoshimitsu AS bunka is average in length at 180mm and is excellent for slicing, dicing, and mincing. The combination of a light, mid-sized blade, and a well-refined edge gives this knife a speed and dexterity that will surprise you.
Aogami Super (AS) steel is composed of a high percentage of carbon and chrome. This increases the hardness of the blade along with overall toughness and corrosion resistance. The manganese content adds to the wear resistance while molybdenum helps in maintaining the steel’s strength during heating. Phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, tungsten, and vanadium are also present. Heat treat is done by eye and experience and they usually hit the 62-63 range, which is the sweet spot for this steel. The inner core steel is covered with a softer iron (or “jigane”) in a san-mai construction.
Gyuto are the chef knives of Japan and this particular blade length lends itself to use in smaller kitchens and on countertops with restricted space. It is about average in weight but does have a spine thicker than some others in this size range. That spine does taper to a lovely thin tip. It is slightly on the tall side for those of you looking for some extra finger clearance.
The softer carbon steel cladding features a lovely kurouchi finish which protects and strengthens the inner steel while aiding in food release. A kurouchi finish occurs when the surface of the blade is blackened by an oxide film when it is put in the fire, made red hot and hardened. Though the black coloring can gradually disappear with repeated sharpening, it aids in corrosion resistance.
The ko-bocho blade (“ko” means small in Japanese) is 108mm long so it is well suited to performing small and intricate cutting jobs such as slicing garlic, chopping herbs, or mincing shallots. It excels at filleting smaller fish and Frenching ribs.
The Yoshimitsu nakiri is a great example of this ubiquitous Japanese knife. It is made from a highly regarded steel called Aogami Super (AS). The carbon-rich steel is then inserted into soft iron using the traditional methods. This san-mai construction gives the inner core protection and strength and results in a blade that can take and keep a super fine edge while remaining light and strong. The outer jigane features a rustic black kurouchi finish. Now with an upgraded walnut octagonal handle.
The Yoshimitsu santoku is average in length at 180mm. It also tips the scales at around the midpoint for santokus of this size. Santoku means three virtues in Japanese and the description refers to the three main cutting tasks which the knife performs so well: slicing, dicing, and mincing. The combination of a light, mid-sized blade and a well refined edge gives this knife a speed and dexterity that will surprise you.
This fun and functional knife resembles a cross between a cleaver and a traditional nakiri. It has the thin grinds normally associated with the vegetable cutter but it is tall like a classic Chinese cleaver. Large ingredients, big hands, or a simple desire for a taller blade are addressed with this versatile shape. It also makes food scooping a breeze.

The outer jigane features a rustic black kurouchi finish.
The blade is mated to an upgraded oak octagonal handle with burnt urushi finish.
The Yoshimitsu Blue #2 bunka is 175mm at the edge and is excellent for slicing, dicing, and mincing. The combination of a light, mid-sized blade, and a well-refined edge gives this knife a speed and dexterity that will surprise you. Bunkas and their smaller brethren, ko-bunkas, are gaining in popularity in western kitchens for their compact size, flat profiles, and versatility. The reverse tanto tip makes the knife a good choice for tasks requiring a super thin tip for delicate cuts.
The five brothers who make up Yoshimitsu are making some very nice kitchen knives for us and this is another example of their skills and artisanship. These knives are constructed from Hitachi Blue #2 steel which is then covered in the san-mai style with a soft stainless steel outer layer. The addition of this cladding adds strength to the core steel while aiding with protection and ease of maintenance. The bead-blasted lower blade path offers a nice contrast to the polished upper face and edge.
A nicely realized octagonal handle made from walnut and black pakka wood round out this alluring package.
The Yoshimitsu brothers only use the best steels, as can be seen in their choice of Blue #2 for this selection of blades. Blue paper #2 is made by Hitachi Metals and is by far one of the most loved steels in the world of Japanese knives. It is a high carbon steel that is known for its superior edge retention and its ability to take a more acute edge than White steels. The core steel is hardened to about 62 HRC. An outer layer of stainless steel is applied san-mai style to protect and strengthen the Blue #2 inner core. It also makes daily maintenance a lot easier.
While it might look like a regular bunka, these are more correctly named hakata bocho knives. This is a regional variation of a bunka Bocho, which features a triangular pointed tip and a curved spine. The blade height of this particular example is 49mm, which allows for increased board clearance. The blade edge is quite flat, favoring push-style cutting techniques. Even though it is a fairly long knife, the pointed tanto-style tip adds the ability to process smaller foods and make intricate cuts in small items and garnishes.
The Yoshimitsu Blue #2 Gyuto 210mm is a great knife for both professional and home chefs. 210mm is a nice size for handling almost any ingredient, large or small. It has extra height for a knife of this length offering users good hand and knuckle clearance. The edge is ground evenly on both sides for ease of use and sharpening. There is a fairly flat belly which transforms to a well-defined curve to the slim tip. It has a look almost like a large santoku.
Looks and feel are of a high standard. The stainless steel outer layer is applied in the san mai method. The primary grind is well defined which leads to the shinogi and exposed Blue #2 steel edge. There is a slight gap between the neck and handle ferrule. This small gap or “machi” is traditional to Japanese knives and quite intentional. The attractive octagonal handle is made from walnut and black pakka wood.
The core steel of this knife is covered in a stainless steel outer layer for protection and strength. It also gives the knife a very welcome ease of maintenance characteristic as compared to other carbon knives. The fit and finish are well executed especially for a knife at this price point.
The blade is nicely ground to an even 50/50 edge. The profile is flat up to about two thirds along the edge which makes for a good rocker or push cutter. It has a very finely made tip and is quite thin at the base and behind the edge. It comes with a very well made walnut and black pakka wood handle.
We are the first retailers in the USA to offer this line of kitchen knives and we believe they will become a staple on our site and in many customers’ kitchens. Well-made and well-priced.
The Yoshimitsu Blue #2 Nakiri 165mm is made from a core of Hitachi Blue Paper #2 carbon steel. The nakiri we are featuring here is longer than the advertised length, 173mm, and is about average for knives of this style. It is a very square blade with very little radiusing of the tip. The height of 50mmm is also average for the breed. It is a thin blade however, with a heel thickness of just 1.8mm. This gives the knife a very responsive feel while still having the stiffness associated with most nakiris. Grind is 50/50 for use by left- or right-handed users. It comes with a nice octagonal oak handle.
The Yoshimitsu brothers utilize Blue #2 for this selection of blades. Blue paper #2, or Aogami 2, is made by Hitachi Metals and is by far one of the most popular steels in the world of Japanese knives. This high-carbon steel is known for its superior edge retention and its ability to take a more acute edge than White steel. The Blue steel is hardened to about 62 HRC and an outer layer of stainless steel is applied san-mai style to protect and strengthen the inner core. It also makes daily maintenance a whole lot easier!
The Yoshimitsu Blue #2 Petty 150mm sits in the middle of petty lengths resulting in a blade with versatile characteristics. These knives can do so many things—slice, chop, or cut almost any ingredient while still being small enough for fine work like garnishes. Put that together with a standard chef knife and a bread knife and you have the basic tools for almost every cutting task in the kitchen.
The knife comes with a lovely walnut handle and black pakka wood ferrule.
We have always enjoyed working with the five brothers as they produce some of our more popularly priced knives. One such knife is the Blue #2 Petty 165mm. The blade is made from a core of Hitachi Blue Paper #2 steel. Blue Steel #2 has the same carbon content as White #2, with the additional elements Chromium and Tungsten. With these additional ingredients, Blue Steel #2 blades can potentially have better edge retention and durability. The inner core is covered with a stainless steel to increase strength and aid with ease of maintenance. The bead blasted lower blade path offers a nice contrast to the polished upper face and edge.
The Yoshimitsu Blue #2 Petty 165mm is a great mid-length knife that can be applied to many cutting tasks around the kitchen, whether they are slicing, dicing, or more specialized work like garnish preparations. And at its affordable price, it could prove to be the gateway you have been seeking into the fascinating world of Japanese knives.
The knife is made from Blue #2 high-carbon steel. It is a Hitachi-manufactured metal and is regarded as one of the best steels to use in the making of kitchen knives. The steel is high carbon, so they clad the blade in a layer of stainless steel so that only the mirror-finished edge will be reactive. The lovely satin finish helps food slide right off the knife, simplifying a busy prep session and adding to the overall great looks.
This long petty is made for us by the five-brother team of Yoshimitsu Hamono, located in Nagasaki, Japan. We are particularly excited about the excellent heat treatment and grinds that the brothers endow these knives with. Their knives are also very well put together, making these Blue #2 offerings a stand-out product at a budget-conscious price.
The Yoshimitsu Blue #2 Tall Petty can slice, chop, or cut almost any ingredient while still being small enough for fine work like garnishes and chiffonades. What sets it apart from other paring knives or petties is the blade height of 36mm, which is between 5 and 10mm taller than most other knives of this length.
The five brothers who make up Yoshimitsu make some very nice kitchen knives for us and this is another example of their skills and artisanship. These knives are constructed from Hitachi Blue #2 steel which is then covered in the san-mai style with a soft stainless steel outer layer. The addition of this cladding adds strength to the core steel while aiding with protection and ease of maintenance. The bead blasted lower blade path offers a nice contrast to the polished upper face and edge.
The knife comes with a lovely walnut handle and a black pakka wood ferrule.
We specified White #1 steel as the core for several reasons. It is a very resilient steel that resists chipping. It is relatively easy to sharpen and it takes a really fine edge when put to the stones. It is a great choice when balancing performance and budget. The inner core of White #1 is covered, san-mai style, with a soft iron cladding. The covering features a kurouchi finish which aids in protecting the blade while adding to the classic look of the knife.
This bunka is a small size at 170mm and can be used for all kinds of processing and preparations. It is sharpened with a 50/50 bevel. The blade height is a generous 50mm, which is quite tall in relation to the length. For those with small hands or a limited cutting area, this is a wonderful balance.
The knife comes with a simple very nice oak octagonal handle with burnt urushi finiish that is a big upgrade over the old one.

It is relatively easy to sharpen and it takes a really fine edge when put to the stones.
With a blade length of about 210mm, these chef knives are a perfect tool for most kitchens, being adept at tackling just about any cutting, chopping, or slicing task. This particular variety has a tall profile for extra finger-to-board clearance. The classic looks of the blade are matched to a burnt oak octagonal handle that compliments the hand-forged nature of the blade. This simple gyuto is a perfect entry point into the world of Japanese cutlery.
Now only one of their nephews survive and he has continued the business. The Fugen White #1 line he makes for us is constructed with an inner core of Hitachi White #1 steel, which is clad in a soft iron. This outer layer is left with its carbon coating to help protect the knife from corrosion and provide a surface with better food release. This coating is known as kurouchi. Of course, as the knife is not stainless steel, it will require drying between uses.
This is a classic gyuto in terms of its proportions and basic profile. It comes in at just over the advertised length at 245mm and has a nice height of 53mm for extra hand clearance. There is a flat area from the heel to almost the halfway point on the edge. The tip is very finely crafted and is quite thin behind the edge. The knife comes with a simple oval ho wood handle and plastic ferrule.
By utilizing Hitachi White Paper #1 steel and a soft iron cladding, they are able to manufacture a fine blade that is capable of pleasing both home cooks and line and sous chefs in a professional environment, all at an entry-level price. The iron cladding is finished with a kurouchi covering which reduces manufacturing costs while providing additional protection to the blade.
At 150mm long this knife is primarily used for boning poultry but can also be used as a petty knife to do basic small vegetable and herb processing as well as garnish preparations.
The classic looks of the blade are matched to a very nice upgraded octagonal handle made of oak with a burnt Urushi finish. The Fugen White #1 Honesuki represents a wonderful entry point into the world of Japanese cutlery by being both easy to maintain, quick to sharpen, and robust in use.
They decided on using White #1 as the core steel due to its ability to take an amazingly sharp edge and its edge holding prowess. This comes at a cost as White #1 is one of the hardest steels to forge, but these master smiths have the necessary years under their collective belts to take on the task with certainty and relative ease. The cladding, made from a soft iron, is left with its carbon face and rustic look which is great at reducing the chances of corrosion. It also allows us to sell these knives at such a budget price point considering the materials and skills required to manipulate them. Our Kiri Cleaver saya does NOT fit this knife.
The blade is a cross between a cleaver and a bunka which is super fun to use. It can take the place of many of the knives in your kit. Finally, the urushi lacquer finish makes the handle nearly waterproof for years of reliable service.
The CKTG Kiri Cleaver Saya will not fit this knife.||||||||||||||||0||||||||||New||||||||||||||0||~~|^^|yofuwh1ki24||item-1||solidtemplate||newarrivals||https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/yoshimitsu-fugen-white-1-kiritsuke-240mm-281.png||||||Yoshimitsu Fugen White #1 Kiritsuke 210mm||YW1B-K21U||newarrivals > ||New Arrivals > ||125.950||125.950 ||||||||1.000 ||||1||1||1||0||||||||The Yoshimitsu Fugen White #1 Kiritsuke 210mm is an unusual blade. It combines the general proportions of a sujihiki with the overall shape of a classic kiritsuke. Kiritsuke knives are regarded as general purpose kitchen blades that were originally made with a single bevel. More recently, double bevel examples are finding favor with many chefs as they are easier to use and care for. But unlike most kiritsuke knives, this one has a very short blade height and is thus more a cousin to a sujihiki than a gyuto. The reverse tanto profile makes the pointed tip very nimble but also delicate, while the flat and thin profile lends itself to most slicing tasks.
White #1 steel is the material of choice for the core for several reasons. It is a very resilient steel that resists chipping while being relatively easy to sharpen. The steel also takes a really refined edge when put to the stones. We think Shirogami #1 is a perfect choice when balancing performance and budget.
The inner core of White #1 is covered, san-mai style, with a soft iron cladding which features a kurouchi finish. This aids in protecting the blade from corrosion and shocks while aiding food release. It also makes this sword-like knife even better looking. Considering all it has to offer, we think this attractive and versatile kitchen knife represents the highest level of price-to-performance ratios.
We have recently upgraded the handle to octagonal oak with a burnt urushi (lacquer) finish.
The Fugen White #1 Nakiri is a classic nakiri in shape and grind. The blade length is about average for these knives, at 165mm. The height is similarly scaled at 47mm. It has a nice 50/50 symmetrical grind which, after a quick trip to the stones, provides a very sharp cutting edge.
Fugen knives feature inner cores of Hitachi White #1 steel which is encased in a soft iron cladding. The outer layer is left with its carbon coating to protect the knife from corrosion and provide a surface with better food release. Of course, the knife is not stainless steel and does require care with drying between uses. In keeping with the rustic look, we have specified an upgraded oak octagonal handle with burnt Urushi finish.
The Fugen is a really well put together knife which is offered at a budget conscious price. It is a perfect entry point into Japanese knives in general or nakiris in particular. Line chefs and home cooks should consider this bargain of a blade when looking to take this step into a new style of kitchen knife.
It is made with the ever-popular Shirogami, or White, #1 steel which has been clad with a soft iron layer. This cladding, also known as jigane, is finished with a traditional rustic kurouchi covering. This entails leaving the carbon on the blade face, which is the result of the heat-treating process. The black patina is great looking and aids in resisting rust. Shirogami #1 steel is well-liked for its ease of sharpening and the ability to take a really good edge. It will dull slightly faster than a Blue #1 steel, but the price-to-performance trade is well worth it. The blade is ground with an even 50/50 profile.
The classic looks of the blade are matched to a very nice upgraded octagonal handle made of oak with a burnt Urushi finish.

The inner core of White #1 is covered, san-mai style, with a soft iron cladding. The covering features a kurouchi finish which aids in protecting the blade while adding to the classic look of the knife.
This santoku is a small size at 170mm and can be used for all kinds of processing and preparations. It is sharpened with a 50/50 bevel. The blade height is a generous 48.4mm, which is quite tall in relation to the length. For those with small hands or a limited cutting area, this is a wonderful balance.
The knife comes with a simple very nice oak octagonal handle with burnt urushi finiish that is a big upgrade over the old one.
The knife is made with a Hitachi White #1 core and a soft iron cladding which retains the carbon forging scale for extra protection, enhanced food release, and good looks!
Sujihikis are basically two-sided yanagibas. They are used for slicing all kinds of raw and cooked proteins in one single action. The 240mm suji is a great size for those who don't have a ton of space in their kitchen. It is generally used for slicing, especially for sushi, but at this length it can be used for many more cutting tasks. The short height of the blade means that there is less friction when slicing and the blade draws through fish and boneless meat effortlessly.
The blade is mated to a simple octagonal-shaped handle with a lacquered finish.
They decided on using White #1 as the core steel due to its ability to take an amazingly sharp edge and its edge holding prowess.

It also allows us to sell these knives at such a budget price point considering the materials and skills required to manipulate them.
The blade is a cross between a nakiri and a cleaver; it features the thin grinds and square profile of this supreme vegetable cutter with a really tall blade height reminiscent of a Chinese cleaver. So while it resembles a cleaver, it is more of a nakiri in terms of grinds and profile.
It is made with the ever-popular Shirogami, or White, #1 steel which has been clad with a soft iron layer. This cladding, also known as jigane, is finished with a traditional rustic kurouchi covering. This entails leaving the carbon on the blade face, which is the result of the heat-treating process. The black patina is great looking and aids in resisting rust. Shirogami #1 steel is well-liked for its ease of sharpening and the ability to take a really good edge. It will dull slightly faster than a Blue #1 steel, but the price-to-performance trade is well worth it. The blade is ground with an even 50/50 profile.
The classic looks of the blade are matched to a very nice upgraded octagonal handle made of oak with a burnt Urushi finish.
The Yoshito Saku Blue #2 Santoku is made with Blue Paper #2 steel and is clad with a soft iron. The kurouchi finish is very attractive and quite smooth. There is also some nice hand engraved kanji adorning the blade face.
This is typical santoku in terms of shape and dimensions. It has a long flat section to the edge which gently curves up to the sheep’s foot tip. This knife will please push cutters in particular but will also appeal to users who like to rock, too!
There is a very simple and basic look to this knife which we find very attractive. The octagonal hardwood handle furthers this aesthetic and provides a very comfortable and secure grip to the knife. It's finished with a beautiful Japanese lacquer called "urushi," made from the sap of a tree. Urushi is not coated on the handle but penetrates inside the handle, and this protects the wood from water and moisture.

She named the new woodblock print “Yoshitsune.” He lived about 850 years ago in the Kamakura Era and is considered a folk hero. Minamoto no Yoshitsune was small in size but lightning quick and he fought and beat another big, strong warrior named “Benkei” in Kyoto who then became his loyal follower. Yuuka san was inspired to make a block print depicting Yoshitsune in full armor at the moment of attack.
Yuuka san made 20 numbered prints in all. We took #1 for our office. The second photo is of her original drawing which she used to cut the wood block before printing. If you watch the video below you can see her making a small print for demonstration.

Aogami Super (AS) is known for its ability to take and keep a super sharp edge. It is also very reactive, which is why the kurouchi finish on these knives is so great. It helps with rust protection and aids in food release. You'll still need to be careful to keep these knives dry.
This handle is an inexpensive walnut D Shape with a plastic ferrule to keep the cost down. Nothing special but it does the job..
If you have not tried an AS knife this could be your time to experience this super steel at a truly affordable price.
