Konosuke has been working on this new product for a couple of years now.
Kosuke has been getting many requests over the last few years for thicker
gyuto, taller heel, and natural stone finish.
About three years ago, they started working on a method
to finish our blades in-house so that the surface was utterly free from low spots
Then about two years ago, they started thinking about a new blade that could be easily resharpened, literally giving the customers a knife that could be put directly on any natural polishing stone.
Free of any low spots. Thicker with much taller heel height, one-third of the blade finished in Kaneshige on bench stones.
And after a couple of years working with the Tanaka and Miyojin to produce a blade, they could finish at Konosuke. Introducing the Konosuke Fujiyama Kaiju!
