After a couple months of using this beast I have to say I’m pretty happy! First,the downsides; I’m a little disappointed in the profile. It doesn’t strike me as very close to the KS is was supposed to be inspired by. That said it does have a pretty long flat spot. While I wish it was flatter with a lower tip the knife is very good overall.



This was probably the sharpest knife OOtB I’ve ever seen (save my Nubatama,and it was not really "stock"- it was sharpened by a Japanese sword polisher prior to being shipped to me). The Ultimatum would cut hanging tissue paper 1.5" out right out of the box! If I didn’t know better I’d think Mark sent me a ringer!



But the really astonishing thing is the edge retention: It’s really without peer in my experience. After three weeks of use on the line,six days a week,it would still cleanly shave my arm! Now,over 2 months later,a few licks on my HA Glass hone and will shave again,albeit not super cleanly. Nothing I’ve used has held an edge remotely this long,again with the possible exception of the Nubatama.



If the profile could be tweaked to more closely mirror the KS I’d sell half a dozen of my knives,buy three more of these and start spending my mad money on guns for awhile!



As it stands,this knife is amazing. The only problem is it pretty much takes the fun out of "the hobby". No more debating steel types and edge retention...this seems to be the last word in that regard! Ultimatum,indeed!

To start off,this thing is LIGHT. If you weren’t paying attention you would forget there is a 10 inch knife in your hand.



The fit and finish was all totally fine. The handle is beautiful and compliments the pattern on the blade very nicely. Also the size of the blade itself,The only other suji I own is a tojiro,and I can say that this blade although the same class/length has a bit more height to it and is a little bit bigger overall. You get a lot of blade.

There is not really much taper on the blade,it maintains the 1.75 mm spine up till about an inch from the tip,but if you feel the tip area where it gets thin with your fingers,it feels like you are just pinching your fingers together with maybe a piece of paper between them. The grind on this thing is super thin. The factory edge was decent,could cut paper and I prepped dinner for four people with a friend. That pretty much did a number on the factory edge,but it was still able to cut paper,albeit with some tearing. Just got around to sharpening it on a 1000 grit,then up to 4000 grit and some stropping,and this thing is awesome. Can turn a tomato into translucent flaps of bisected tomato like nothing.

It’s not something I think I’ll be bringing to work a lot,just because I don’t trust my coworkers. The blade is flashy but not excessively so. Which is honestly a good thing for if I do bring it to work,it will dissuade people from picking it up because they think they are handling a much more expensive knife than what it actually is.

I have yet to use it heavily since I sharpened it,but judging by how its factory edge held up,it seems like its got average/good edge retention.



amazing knife,especially for the price!

I love this knife. I’m a prep cook at a German restaurant. I was using a cheaper Victoronix knife and this knife is definitely a step up. The Fujiwara is sharper and easier to maintain. I keep this knife sharpened at a single 15 degree angle whereas with the Victoronix I kept it at a double edge of 15/20 degrees. When the Fujiwara gets dull I can resharpen with a few swipes on a ceramic steel. I like the low profile of this knife for chopping larger peppers and onions. The knife is not perfect. The handle is not as comfortable as the softer and larger handle on the Victoronix and the top of the blade was sharp and I had to grind the edges so it would not be painful when I have to hold it on th blade. Still,it is a great knife and I look forward to using it for many. years.

Absolutely outstanding knife. I received this knife for christmas and could not be happier. The blade is incredibly sharp and will take and hold an edge like a razor. I work in a french restaurant and use this knife for almost everything. it powers through anything i throw at it and rarely needs sharpening. I plan on buying the honesukie very soon.

The Calphalon Katana 8" Chef’s Knife is an incredible knife for the price. It uses VG-1 steel at its core,which compared to VG-10 (common in very high end knives) is easier to maintain and easier to work with. It stays sharp for an incredibly long time,does not rust,and it putts up with lots of abuse! This is a great knife for an emerging cook or a professional chef. I have used mine for two years without any performance or quality issues,you wont regret purchasing this knife.

Received this knife as a engagement gift. My first "real" knife. Huge difference compared to old dull knives. The look is great and unique and has a modern feel to it. The edge was very sharp out of the box and the blade has a good heft and feel when using a pinch grip. Very reasonable price and a good value.

Considering it’s only stamped steel,this is as fine a knife as you’d expect from Wusthof - a great little utility piece at a great price.

I don’t actually own this knife,but the exec chef at work does. I have used this knife many times on the line for slicing sandwiches,general slicing duties,and in a pinch i used it to chop herbs. The knife had a great edge and feels great in the hand. I didn’t think I would like the knife as it looked like it would be awkward in the hand but that is not the case.

What can i say,its amazing. It was well worth the 6 month wait. This knife has a unique spirit,it is delicate and a beast at the same time. i read somewhere that it feels like it grows from your hand,and that’s spot on.highly recommended.

Great kinfe. I find my knife skills work when I use the Nikiri--much better than when I use a Chef’s knife.

My only carp is that the handle is somewhat uncomfortable. The rear has a sharp feeling edge that is bothersome.

This is the best "steel" you can get for your knives. Will NOT sharpen your edges,but will realign them without destroying them -- which is all a "steel" is supposed to do! Perfectly designed,beautifully executed,a true pleasure to own and use.

After using many different steels and ceramic hones,I have to say this HA Glass one is by far the best I’ve ever used. It doesn’t seem to have much effect on softer German knives but with Japanese blades in the 60 Rockwell C range and harder it’s simply amazing! Two or three light strokes per side will bring you back to hair popping sharp again. I’m so glad you’re carrying this hone- if I ever break or lose mine I’ll order a replacement the same day. Again,this is about the best hone you’ll ever find. If I could I’d give it six stars!

This rod is used for realigning the edge not sharpening. I my experience it is most effective on higher RC blades. For example it works well on my Carter blades,Moritakas,CPM-M4 pocket knives etc. For maintenance I combine this rod with the horse leather strop and rarely need to return to the stone after months of normal house kitchen use. I find my Shuns and anything with softer blades work best with a simple smooth steel. Overall a great tool!

Wow,nicest knife I now own .... nicer than my Randall’s. Better materials than my German Henckel’s or Wusthof’s. Looking ahead to purchase a Moritaka nigiri with Hitachi super alloy.

Service from your company was very efficient and no "hickups" in shipping.

Thank you again,

This is a great blade set that will take care of your blades for an incredibly low price. The guards hold the knife securely,while still being easy to access. The set also will fit most knives. I would not hesitate to recommend this set to anyone looking for an affordable option to keeping their blades safe while covering most knives in their kitchen.

I really like the layout and capacity of this bag,but the construction did not hold up to normal use. Specifically,the nylon material near the zipper was not strong enough,and began to tear after a few months. I like the book-like layout so much that I have it inside another bag (a nylon toolbox from a hardware store).

The layout of this bag was great. Super convenient knife access. One downside of the bag is the lack of miscellaneous pockets.



As for the quality of the bag,I hated it. One of the zippers broke and stopped zipping. The structure that holds the bag’s shape warped and one of the handles ripped clean off. All this happened in 6 months.

After personally checking out the Ultimate Edge 2001-EVO (18 knives w/out outside pockets),the Koobi and a smaller Messermeister I chose this satchel and am very pleased with it. For a lot less money it is very similar to the UE and Koobi in quality of construction and layout. If you want outside pockets you have to spend more. This is a bargain.

The Messermeister portfolio appears to be well made,easily fits a 270 suji and securely holds knives in place with deep pockets and strong elastic. It takes up less space than a roll and the small inner pockets are convenient for thermometers and the like. The shoulder strap is an added bonus. The only thing I wish it had was protective flaps to go over the knives.

This is a great little prep knife. I do prefer something bigger,but my wife loves this knife,she wont use anything else. It’s great for small prep items like garlic,herbs,mushrooms,cheese,ect. The small size and good balance makes it perfect for a small hand. If your wife is a little timid when it comes to knifes,then she is going to love this knife.

You’re simply not going to find a better $30 knife. This is a solid interpretation of the classic Chinese cleaver. Good weight and balance,and it comes razor sharp right out of the box. The handle is a different shape than pictured; it has the same profile as the wooden forschner cleavers,but it still fibrox.

Great chopper for the price. If you want a cleaver for doing heavy tasks like chopping off fish head/tails the is a bargain. The cleaver steel has held up well at an 18 degree bevel per side.



The handle had some rough spots,but those were easily sanded off.

This Forschner bread knife is an absolute pleasure to use - a solid performer at an economical price. I was smiling with glee when I first used this knife,carving up a crusty baguette cleanly and effortlessly. Two strokes - once forward,once back - and the knife went through the bread like the proverbial hot butter knife through butter.

This is a great bread knife. The curve of the blade gives plenty of knuckle clearance to cut even tough artisan loaves cleanly through down to the board. The serrations are mighty sharp and close spaced,they bite into the crust assertively and don’t slip,even on crusty or seeded loaves.. It has a nice length,most straight bread knives are simply too short. It’s quite light,but rips right through most anything including sticky dough and it’s very maneuverable. Unfortunately,the curved design makes it not so good for splitting cakes,but as a bread knife it shines.

Have built a reasonable knife collection over the last 20 years mainly Henkel and Wustoff 4-star or Pro full-tang forged knives. From the few knives The Forschner bread knife (all their knives I’ve tried so far) is truly an incredible value for the price. The right bite on crust,smooth action,plenty of blade. I think the reviews of Forschner are very accurate. The handle is large (designed for professional use),but even our small hands are ergonomic and secure around them. The pressed steel knives is certainly lighter than forged knives,but they are reasonable weight since the blade lengths are reasonably long (8" chef’s,10" bread knife,12" slicer,...) and they are well balanced. For the prices at this site,these are truly a bargain.

It is too soon. This is a household with occassional bread making. The knife has worked well so far. It is a bit longer than I should have ordered,but that has nothing to do with the quality of your product.



So far we are pleased. Recontact in 10 years and see if we are still using the knife.

I am quite pleased,again,with the service from Chef Knives To Go. As usual,my order arrived in only three days. As for the Forschner Fibrox 10" bread knife,I am quite pleased with the quality and price. The handle has some texture to it,which helps with gripe,but might prove to be somewhat uncomfortable for some,but I find it quite enjoyable to use. It cuts through bread products very nicely and will be used quite often in my kitchen.

Billed as the "World’s sharpest knives" is a pretty big claim,but after using them for the very first time. I think they deserve to keep that claim.

I put in a review a while ago,and I just want to put in an update... It’s been about 3 years since I’ve had it. It’s still solid. I carry it every single day. It’s heavy with all the stuff I put in it,and it still holds up fine,all the straps and everything are still in place. The only thing that has really taken a toll are the misc. tools divider,it’s all been stretched out and can’t hold as secure as it used to,but definitely just wear over time. I REALLY recommend this bag if you have a lot of tools. It WILL get heavy. But,it’s nice being able to have everything you need with you.

Great product.



This is not an expensive knife roll,so I wasn’t expecting great quality but I was VERY pleasantly surprised upon receiving this product.



This is a solid product. Your knives will not poke through this roll. It is thick,but not heavy. Great for traveling.



Once unrolled,there is a fold down flap that covers the blades. This provides additional protection,reducing the chance that one might accidentally cut oneself.



Of course,remember that you can put other kitchen gear in here too,i.e. spatulas or wooden spoons.



Great product at a great price.

This is a great knife roll for those who only use a handful of knives at work (ie: most professional chefs and cooks). It fits about 7 knives plus a few extra little things (I keep a spray bottle of mineral oil and folding utility knife in the mesh pocket).



It looks very well finished for a $20 knife roll but is simple and gets the job done. This roll’s capacity will be sufficient for most people. It also looks very sleek and simple,unlike the new-fangled,totebag-style suitcases that superfluous gear hoarders sometimes lug around.



I’ll be using this one for a while; keeping less frequently used knives at home.

A great place to store and keep all of your knives and important kitchen tools together. FYI put knife sheaths on your knives before putting them in,or you’ll rip the bag,lesson i learned the hard way...

A great all round performer this knife has been the mainstay of chefs and home cooks the world over.

Light,agile and well balanced the convex edge on the G-2 will remain sharp for a very long time.

Though the convex edge does make the knife slightly harder to sharpen.

Pros: light,nimble,easy to control,balanced. Great all purpose knife. Works well for a multitude of tasks. Excellent blade shape/profile.



Cons: Probably not the best handle for big hands (look at Tojiro DP). Price.

I absolutely love this knife! The G2 is a dream. I chose this because it was described as being good for small hands. It truly is! I love the design. It is very easy to clean. I would recommend this knife to anyone with small hands. I plan on buying from Global again!

I did a lot of research before making my Chefs knife purchase and after using it daily for the past month I can safely say I made a great purchase. This knife is exceptionally sharp right out of the box cutting through anything with ease. It also seems to holds an edge very well and is designed for either left or right handed people. (A concern since I’m a lefty) It has a good feel (light and durable) and balance. Although it looks it,the knife does not slip in your hand when wet. That was a concern when I purchased it. I can comfortably and happily recommend this knife. 5 Stars.

Mark basically gave this knife away ($110) what a steal. As Mark says a Watanabe type blade. Very nice knife & handle. I personally like the Japanese Blue steels (or even the White steels) better than CPM154 (easier to sharpen & better edge holding I feel),which is why I gave it 4 stars. If you like CPM154 than it is a 5 stars knife. Marks a great guy to work with,tell him what You want & in time He’ll "get r’ dun".

A simple,straightforward and practical honing steel that does what you need it to do - realign and hone the edge on your nicely-sharpened German cooking knives. Comfortable,fast,and effective,I use the Henckels 9" steel to hone the edge on any one of my Henckels before each use and it allows the Henckels knives to perform to best of their abilities.

I decided to get the Ken Schwartz upgrade as I am looking for a good sharp knife out of the box.



Some people make the joke,"May the Schwartz be with you",well this knife is a LIGHT SABER!



The bevel is polished like a mirror. This edge will be re-hone-able for a long time.



If you are getting an ’Addict’,I highly recommend you get this upgrade,you won’t regret it! Just falls through onions like nothing you’ve ever used.

I got my Addict sharpened by Ken,I have sharpened quite a bit in my days & I wanted a really high benchmark to compare against.



And Ken’s sharpening really is in a standard of it’s own.

Very nice thinning behind the edge,a steep 10 degree bevel & a full on where’s-my-sunglasses mirror polish.

This edge is pure liquid mercury!



The edge has held up really well,after several months of use I have still only had to use stropping on 0.25µ poly diamond & 0.1µ to bring it right back to screaming banshee sharp.



When the Schwartz is in your knives,life is good!

Arashiyama 6000 extra wide grit is a very nice finishing stone. I was able to bring my very dull and lowly kitchen knife to razor sharp edge. I grind my knife using the bester 1000 then bester 2000 then and then the arashiyama 6000 . The size of the arashiyama 6000 extra wide is no doubt very pleasant to use. I tried to shave my right leg with the knife. My right side leg became very smooth. That is how sharp my knife has become. I would like to pair the Arashiyama with the Blue Aoto 2000-3000 extra large. Since blue Aoto can leave a finish up to more than 3000 grit. It sure will be a great combination. I am just going to wait until Chef To Go carries the extra large Aoto.

This is an outstanding knife. Like all the Misono knives,however,you have to be careful not to bend the tip when replacing it in its holder or when carving any meat with a bone. The knife will lose its point easily. Otherwise,it’s a beautiful tool to add to one’s collection.

This knife is FANTASTIC! WOW! Seeing it in person,it is just unbelievable! The craftsmanship and attention to detail are top notch. The rounded spine and other rounded edges make this knife a joy to work with! The Wa handle is well sealed and has a solid feel. The knife cuts through food like butter. This knife is just flat AWESOME! You need to see this knife to believe it. I have many,many knives and this is now my go to cooking instrument!

This is the highest quality knife you can buy at the price. No where else are you going to get a hand made knife with flawless fit and finish for under $500. Its thick where it needs to be and razor thin where it needs to be. The perfect all-around knife.

The knife is well balanced (at the ferrule) . The AEB-L steel is really great,and takes a stupidly sharp edge. And its stainless!! The octagon handle is perfect even for people with big hands (and much better then dshaped handles).



I keep sayin: Everybody should have a DT in the kitchen.

This knife is amazing. I have owned a lot of cutlery and this is by far the best. Fit and finish is superb. The steel holds onto an edge forever. It sharpens beautifully and with a good stroping doesn’t need to be honed for a while. Undoubtedly the best money I have ever paid for a knife. Do yourself a favor and by a Devin Thomas.

Ordered it on Wed and it got here on Sat! Very well-balanced. Honed it with both 3k nad 8k water stones. Really sharp! Only thing is there is no obvious way to know if it was really forged from an artillery shell. Just have to trust to Maestro Wu. That and the fact that I’m unsure of how well the edge will hold up caused the 4 star rating. It could be 5 in the future.

Great cleaver! I sharpened it on a 3000 then 8000 waterstone. Scary sharp. Good balance. It’s a shame that there is no way to show people that actually did come from a bombshell. We just ahve to trust Maestro Wu.

My friend purchased this knife. It is an exceptional value,with a custom handle and awesome saya with a really nice pin. That being said,it should be sold as a deba. It is too thick for any vegetable prep besides maybe cutting an acorn squash or a daikon. Now,the Laser version would receive 5 stars from me,and may be my next purchase if it becomes available....

Not very fancy on the outside but it does work. I suggest you put the back of the tip of the knife in the corner opposite the magnetic strip,slide knife in along the side opposite the magnetic strip and then let knife down onto magnetic strip when knife if fully inserted. The magnetic strip can be seen at the saya opening.

it’s been more than half a year since i got this knife and it’s still as good if not better than when it came in. The blade is razor sharp and stays that way even after deboning several chickens the blade remained sharp. The handle is fairly comfortable and overall the knife is pretty light. It’s a nice starter knife to get and the price isn’t that bad at all. People always find it amazing to use and try to steal it whenever there’s tons of prep work in the kitchen.

I love this little knife!



The fit and finish is a little off. there was some glue on my blade next to the handle (nothing a set of the micro soft touch pads that CKTG offers won’t fix right up) which was really easy to fix with a high grit sand paper progression.



The blade has nice dimensions but its pretty thin. Isn’t the best for rough veg prep but its nice for slicing,dicing and doing most prep work. I would recommend this one to any cook looking to get into japanese knives and prefer to try a WA handle. I find this knife goes missing off of my work station a lot as my co workers love it and can’t believe it was so cheap!



I dig this thing for sure!

My go-to knife for most every slicing/dicing/chopping task in the kitchen nowadays. Excellent balance,holds a good edge (sharpened mine to 80/20),handle works for me (small hands). Better then my Globals & Shuns for almost everything. Still use my 10" Shun for heavy duty stuff.

Moritaka knives are like Takeda knives,both AS Super steel (Blue steel),if you like one brand You will also like the other,not as thick as Watanabe knives or as broad. I personally like thinner,lighter knives so my favorite is the Konosuke knives,that said these are good knives.

My new favorite knife! Looks great. Great balance. Tall enough to not smash your knuckles when using the heel. The geometry and fit n finish are superb. I put a 10 degree per side edge on it with Shapton glass and the steel is holding up quite well even on poly boards. No chipping.I payed a premium,but for me this knife is close to perfect.

Took it for a test drive today! The results were superb! The weight,the sharpness of the blade are outstanding... I got hooked up with VG10’s and Swedish steel but this one blew both off the moment I used it. When I get a hang of this one I will surely go for the real high end single bevel knives! Thanks CKTG!

Amazing blade with awesome edge retention. This thing is a laser. The bevel on mine is asymmetric,and I will deal with it when I formally sharpen it far into the future. The asymmetry is more difficult to ascertain because,unlike the kuorichi knives,the border between stainless Damascus and the Aoko steel is not as obvious. As a bonus,my knife came with an octagonal handle (which I prefer) instead of the D-shaped handle. I own six Moritaka Damascus knives. The Damascus is not complex and appears to be only 8 or so layers. Awesome blade.

The Richmond Laser 210 AEBL-Petty is a special knife. It’s just long enough to be a good slicer,and just short enough to remain a ballerina on the board. I use this at work for beef fabrication,and it blows the restaurant "white handle" knives out of the water. It will portion Ribeye,and sirloin,and trim filet mignon much faster and with less waste than any western butchers or boning knife,it’s got just the right amount of flex for getting under silver skin and trimming it with a single stroke. AEB-L takes a screaming edge,and sharpens easily,holds it pretty well too. Cleaned trimmed and portioned 70 lbs of Sirloin,and 40 lbs of tenderloin today without a whimper. Great for roll cutting veggies too.

If God wanted a knife to cut through all the crap of the world,this is it. Perfection.

Very sharp out of the box and even better with a little time on a ultra fine ceramic rod and then the Handamerican borosilicate polishing rod. This knife does not cut,it melts whatever it touches.

Thanks for making these wonderful pieces available to us.

When I saw that I could pick up Fugimaras knives at that price I jumped all over it. His knives are amazing and this line is ridiculous value. Owning some of his extremely sharp when cared for properly carbon knives,I was looking for a slicer that could take a little abuse. The steel featured is very strong but takes a liitle time to sharpen,but can withstand light blowtourching etc.

Very impressive blade and a good deal too! I recent bought the video display knife and it arrived in perfect condition with the bonus of a discount. The blade geometry and the extra blade height is great. I really like the mono steel 52100 blade. Sharpens easy and holds an edge. The carbon steel blade is not overly reactive. Nice distal taper to the blade and thin tip for detail work. Good all around work horse performer. I did thin out the edge a little . So far a real good knife.

finish on the blade wasn’t the best had many high and low points and right at the tip it had a weird dent on the edge so i flattened it and made the belly a bit bigger and sharpened it gets insane sharp and it holds extremely well the weight is nice and the handle is cool. for the price nothing better so i understood why the finish wasn’t the best but overall extremely happy!

this knife is made of very very good steel. Takes a great edge! It will rust in humid conditions. Overall quality of the steel is high enough that i had a little science project with mine; here is a picture of the result:

The edge i put on this this is good enough to slice through a free hanging towel head on with full length of the blade. You would need 0.5 micron finish to attain edge hat refined.

When I got this knife I was amazed by the material of the blade,it felt wery crude and almost irritating. but then I tried it and it felt so good after a few days. And the handle feels so natural against my hand. It needed couple strokes with my sharpening stone before first use. The blade needs to be taken wery good care or it will rust. All in all a very good knife. If you are a fan of japanese knives its a must to buy. In fact its the best knife of my collection and I use it daily at my work. And the delivery was fast,even thou it game from the other side of the world.

The knives are great. They cut perfectly though all kinds of foods including meat. The box the knives came in looks great as well and made a wonderful Christmas gift for my husband who is a professional chef. Thank you again for the great product.

Really love these knives. Very sharp but I’ll have to wait to see for how long - nice to have the Kyocera sharpening for backup. Light weight and nice handle and the black version doesn’t look as cheap as the white.

I’ve used the Kyocera ceramic knives for over a year.They are now my knife of choice when I do anything in the kitchen-and inspite of a ceramic floor neither of them have broken. I bought two sets for wedding gifts,but a 5% discount for the next order is an insult.

Not cheap,and a little thick all around for a paring knife partially due to the sheepsfoot profile. If you’ve been recommended a Shun classic paring,stick to the traditional paring shape in my opinion.http://kazuhiko10.wordpress.com/category/tojiro-vs-shun/

I was a little reluctant to purchase a paring knife for under $6.00,and expect it to be sharp. However,this is by far the sharpest paring knife I have purchased thus far,and I recently retired,and have purchased quite a number of paring knives. I will certainly recommend these knives and will definatly purchase more. Thank you so much. Lena

I have owned at least a dozen Victorinox parers of various sizes and handle patterns over the years...



My take on these knives is that they are very well designed and as well made as a cast plastic handled knife can be,however the blade steel is typical "Swiss Army Knife" stainless; very stain resistant,but soft and not terribly wear resistant. When compared to other non-exotic stainless steel knives they are easy to sharpen,take a fairly good edge and hold it for a reasonable period. But they are nothing like the best carbon steel knives or some of the more modern stainless alloys.



The trade off in their favor though is that they are very hard to chip or break and if you do manage to severely damage one it’s cheap to replace!



If you want a reliable,competent knock-about parer it’s hard to go wrong with one of these!

The paring knife is superb !!! I saw the review for the knife on American Test Kitchen and they gave it a BEST BUY/Highly recommended. So thought I’d check it out for myself and I am not disappointed with it at all.You can’t ask for more in this paring knife.Handles perfectly,fit & finish is great,has a really sharp blade on this little sucker & PRICE? YA just can’t beat it.Top billing in my book...

This is a pretty good santoku. Comes sharp and keeps its edge for a pretty long time. The spine on mine was a bit sharp compared to other Henckels knives,so fit and finish could be improved there. Granton edge doesn’t do much either.

This was,and still is,my only decent knife. Overall I’ve been very happy with it in the two years I’ve owned it. Comes nice and sharp,decent edge retention. My only real complaint is some chipping back near the handle,but that’s likely more a product of my relative inexperience than a reflection of the quality of the knife.

The previous user talks about this knife taking a great patina. I think the real conversation is; this thing will take an exceptional edge! This knife was Sharpened on Shapton stones up to 8000 grit,then honed on Ken Schwartz’s tenth micron CBN spray. The knife would wittle a hair with ease.... and this edge never chipped,even on the hardest bamboo board. It really holds an edge exceptionally well,YES REALLY! The knife excels at push-cuts and slicing.

What a surprise this sharpener is. I have over $500.00 worth of Tojiro and MAC Pro knifes and I was looking for something to put an edge back on them when the time come,so I invested in a Chefs Choice Model 15XV Trizor Edge electric sharpener which is made for Japanese knifes. I used it once and found that it left a jagged edge on my knifes and also removed way way to much material. I then ordered this handheld sharpener after reading great reviews from others who own it and I’m not disappointed,just follow the directions and your knifes will be razor sharp again.

Hello Mark,I would rate the Minosharp Plus 3 a 10+ on a scale of one to 10. Just a half dozen passes with both a Tojiro DP series and 808 chefs knife removed all minor nicks and restored the blades to sharper than when I took them out of the box new. This is a great tool for anyone [like myself] that does not have the skill set or time to use the stone sets...

Hola Mark,



First let me start by saying that your service is "Top Notch"! I received the order in just a few days so shipping is FAST,gracias!



As a newbie I am slowly becoming "enlightened" to the art (and science) of kitchen cutlery - including the proper maintenance,care and appreciation of such important tools. I chose this sharpener based on the information provided by your video and the reviews above. The simplicity in its operation and its design was also a factor.



As soon as I got it out of the box I filled it with water and decided to put it to the test so I took my really cheap and insulting futile attempt at cutlery (yes,I admit,but I didn’t know any better at the time when I bought a set of "Miracle Blade" knives that I saw on TV. I have learned a few things since then) and ran the chef knife trough it. After 25 passes on the coarse stone it gave it a brand new edge. Then 25 more on the medium and finally 20 on the fine and it resharpened that sucker! The knife is,however,a low grade mixture of metal - not sure it’s worth even calling it steel- as it feels more like nickel. I know that I won’t be able to get a razor sharp edge on such an inferior product but I am OK with this. After all,that is what happens when you buy cheap stuff that is made in China "as seen on TV".



Anyway,I now have a Victorinox Fibrox 10" chef knife - GREAT affordable knife - which doesn’t need to be sharpened just yet but I am 100% confident that when the time comes all I will need to do is give it 10 to 15 passes on the fine stone to restore its edge.



I am now saving for my first Japanese knife,the Tojiro DP chef knife,looking forward to that and many more.



Until then,thank you Mark! And as a wise man once said:



"Stay sharp!"



Quintin...

I was a little hesitant when I purchased this knife. I am used to a heavier blade but the look and price point were too attractive to pass up. It is super sharp out of the box and the handle is great. I flew through some onions this evening at frightening speed and even though light,I loved the blade. I think it will be a workhorse but time will tell. So far...so fantastic!

For $99 this is an AWESOME knife! For $150 it would still be an awesome knife!



I have full review of this knife in the CKtG forum for those that might want to know more about it: http://www.chefknivestogoforum.com/goko-19c27-stainless-damascus-240mm-gyuto-t4736.html

I have been wanting to upgrade my kitchen knife quite some time. Wasn’t sure about spending $250 plus on a knife. When I saw this I jumped right in. WOW! So glad I did,didn’t know what I was missing out on. I grabbed an onion and was extremely impressed. I keep my knives razor sharp and have a damascus chefs knife as my regular kitchen knife. I thought it was good,but it isn’t even on the same playing field as this knife. Seriously thinking about sending one to my Mother and Father now. Thanks!

Bought this as a gift for my brother & sister in law. Was a real beauty! Didn’t get to use being a gift. But,wish I had bought two since Mark had such a good price on them. Really surprised at how light this 240mm is. My sister in law loves it! Ordered on Monday,received on Wednesday. As always the sales and service were excellent at CKTG.

This is a great knife: thin,nimble,excellent edge retention,looks good,and cuts really well. A bargain at $99 when I bought it,but at the current price still a bargain. Only downside is the handle,but I had Matt D. make a custom one and now its my favorite go to knife.

Great customer service as usual. Ordered on Tuesday received on Thursday. The knife is very exceptional for the price. FF is very good,OTB sharpness is very good. All this and Blue #2 steel! It is an exceptional knife for the novice and the line alike. The only thing I would add would be a Japaneese handle or the option for one.

Light and nimble. Blade heavy and the thinnest knife I own. I have used it everyday for 2 weeks or more and have honed it once or twice a day on ceramic. Still pretty damn sharp. I haven’t performed every kitchen task with it yet but it has done great so far.

Outstanding knife for the price. Wicked sharp blade right out of the box. The weight of the knife is intimidating at first,but after a few uses,you really get a feel of the knifes full potential. Not to mention the breathtaking Damascus finish. Wow!

Solid purchase! This knife is extremely light,the balance point is closer to the midpoint of the steel. The handle fits well in the hand and takes no time getting used to. Highly recommend this knife if you’re getting into Japanese knives or if you’re looking for a new overall awesome chef knife.

Bought this as my first japanese knife and have found it very useful. After a few weeks of pretty steady use at work it still remains sharp. My only complaint is that the blade is way too thin and the knife itself is too light

This knife retains a super edge. It was much lighter than expected considering the 240mm size. With most the weight in the blade. I Mosdef would buy another. Other line cooks always ask to use this knife when cutting tartar.



The only thing better than this purchase was dealing with Mark. He answered my question quickly,and help guide my purchase. Thanks guys,I can’t wait to buy my next knife from y’all!!!!

Can’t find a better knife for the money that is stainless. I’m not a big fan of stainless,but I love the Swedish steel in this blade. Not only is it very attractive,but it cuts great and is easy to sharpen. Get It!

I break this set into #400 stone and the rest three stones (#1k,#3k,and #5k). I use #400 stone on my japanese single bevel knives for aggressive sharpening or in progression after very coarse stones,like #150-#220. #400 is a hard stone,and it is very dish resistant. But,pay attention,beacuse it is very hard and can demage your edge if you hit the stone at its corners.

I use the rest of the set for regular sharpening progression of double bevel japanese knives,like Glestain,UX10,etc. This set should do for your stainless steel knives. #5k gives a toothie edge,but that is what you need for stainless steel knives,even for carbon steel knives,it is sufficient IMO. If you want to go further,I would recommend adding #6k Yellow Penguin,#8k Snow White,or #10k Chosera,which all seem to have similar attributes,only different grits. On #8k and #10k,swipe it for five times per side to prevent over-smoothing your edge.

As an alternate to this set,especially for carbon steel double bevel japanese knives,you can use Shapton Pro 1.5k,2k,and 5k. I cannot comment on Shapton Pro 8k stone,because I have never tried it.

I purchased this knife years ago when I began to learn kitchen and knife skills. I found it an excellent tool for that purpose at the time,and particularly well-suited to comfortably learning to use a 10" chef’s knife (which is a size that may be intimidating to some novice users).



I don’t use it as much now since I’ve acquired a number of knives that are better-suited for specific tasks. But it still sits in one of my knife blocks and I use it when the need arises. And I’ve given this knife to each of my grown children as a good choice for learning to use a 10" chef.



Since I have fairly large hands I appreciate the substantial girth of the Fibrox handle,and my hands rarely feel sore after long sessions with it ...something to consider if you’re of the age where that happens more often (isn’t getting old fun?)



If you have smaller hands,you may want to consider a smaller size (the 8") that might have a more comfortable grip. That said,my daughter who has fairly small,slender hands likes this size.



Also,the Fibrox handle provides excellent grip,something to consider when you’re learning to use a knife this size and want to avoid misplaced cuts or injury,or you’re hands are getting often. I’m not sure I’ve ever used a handle that has more grip with wet hands than the Fibrox.





I think one has to evaluate the Forshner chef knife for what it is....namely,an excellent tool at a great value price for light to moderate use,which in my experience is what many,if not most,home users demand of a chef knife. A good number of times I’ve put it in my knife travel bag to take to friends/relatives,and had them say they would buy it after using it there.



And they did.

:)



I haven’t found it to hold to hold an edge for extended periods of times,so it may require sharpening after a few hours of cutting. If you’re learning knife skills,you need to learn sharpening skills,too,so isn’t it better to learn on a knife in this price range instead of a high-priced knife you might damage severely?



Sure,there are knives out there that will hold an edge longer,but in my experience,they have usually cost me more.



The performance has equaled a fair number of knives I’ve used in the $50-80 range.



If you’re looking for a knife in this price range to learn on,or use it moderately in your kitchen,I think you’ll be satisfied.



I know I am.



I give it 5 stars on evaluating its performance in comparison to other knives in it’s price range.

I recently purchased this knife because I needed a cheaper everyday chef’s knife for a new kitchen I am working in. I love the knife and have no complaints so far. The size is perfect for my style and the size of my hand,and the quality of the product far exceeds the price paid. My current chef who is a loyal Wusthof fan will actually steal my chef’s knife to butcher fish because he knows it is sharper than anything in his roll. Great product,highly recommended,and shipping took no time at all.

I have been researching the hell out of chef knives. I’ve read Chad Ward’s great book "An Edge In The Kitchen" as well as Cook’s Illustrated reviews and of course the various knifeknut sites. I have to say,I am proud of myself for getting this chef’s knife. Believe me when I say I was tempted by the Japanese gyutos. But this is really one of them,with the advantage of steel that bends rather than chips,and without the $200 and up price tag. Just the fact that this knife is included in testing against those says a lot in my opinion. I thought I knew what sharp was,but I didn’t until I got this one. Out of the box,it was sharper than my old Chicago Cutlery when it was sharpened on a Chef’s Choice 110. It was sharper than what I used in a BBQ restaurant during training (Dexter-Russell). This thing is flat-out badass. You think about the cut and it’s done (be careful with your fingers!).

You cannot beat what you get for the price. This knife can become extremely sharp with some care. It may not keep the edge as long as higher quality knife but a little touch up will bring it back. Its in rotation with masahiros,tojiros,kikuichis when i work. Only complaint is the handle. Like the material but i have trouble getting a really comfortable grip on it sometimes

Bought this knife as something to use at the sushi bar I work at until I could afford a Shimatani. So far (second day of use) it has far surpassed the Henckels 4 star 8" carving knife that I had been using for sushi. At this price-point it’s an excellent choice for a beginner who doesn’t have the money to invest in a true yanagiba. Given that the steel is much softer than a differentially tempered yanagi,it does require frequent sharpening,but on the plus side,you can practice sharpening on this without fear of ruining an expensive knife if you are just learning how. . It should be noted,however,that the blade isn’t quite as heavy as it ought to be for this knife’s shape,so it may impact your sashimi technique later on when you get a better knife. TLDR: a great value for it’s price.

A very heavy diamond spray. Much better than others I’ve tried. 1 micron is perfect fir knives finished on 2-6k stones. Will bring your edge to whistling sharpness. I prefer it matched with felt.

Used it on five different knives and I must say very pleased with the results. Used after .5 micron Oxide and while you really won’t "see" a difference you can see if if you push cut paper or such. Very effort less. And like always,great customer service from Mark.

The 210mm petty should be the next "all the rage" blade...



This is THE knife for anyone who works the line. It is small (for tight working spaces),nimble,doesn’t rust. Edge retention is super. Great for protein slicing. Also works well for cleaning tenderloins.



Fit and finish is remarkable. Handle is top notch and nicely sized; same size as my 240mm HD gyuto. Knife is perfect in every way!



There is no better value in the 210mm petty range!

Great knife. Great size. F&F is incredible,as always with Konosuke knives. This thing is so light,nimble,and out of the way on the line. And it is sharp. Can’t wait to use this at work.

Very sharp as one expects from a Shun. To me the balance of blade to handle is cumbersome,awkward,and not easy to use. Perhaps designed for a VERY specific use,but its not a knife I enjoy using,nor will it be the one I reach for first.

Good thin profile and cuts very nicely. Edge holds up very well.

Steel takes it’s man (or woman) to sharpen.

I received a Richmond Addict II for Christmas. I was very happy with the gift,but it needed supercharging. Due to the fact that I am a noob at sharpening,and not knowing at the time that CPM154 is one of the hardest steels known to man and sharpens OH SO EASILY (sarcasm),I ended up spending an hour turning the edge into "needs a pro" sharpness. I e-mailed Mark,and as usual promptly received a response. I sent my knife off to Shaun,who incidentally,is one of the coolest guys I have ever had the chance of speaking with,and he sharpened it and sent it back. THE PROBLEM: I sent Shaun a Richmond Addict,and he sent me back a LIGHT SABER. I removed the knife from its shipping materials,proceeded to my works R&D Kitchen,and selected a sacrificial Spanish onion. Not knowing what to expect,I lightly tapped the heel of the knife on the end of the onion and heard nothing but the "smack" of the knife on the plastic cutting board. Tomatoes,zucchini,chicken,potatoes,brisket,and even some maki rolls for fun,all fell under the sharpening job. I can say without a doubt that not only does Shaun know what he is doing,but he takes you’re knife and makes it the best it can be. He uses Shapton stones exclusively,and it shows. A quick glance at the edge of my knife reveals my reflection staring back at me,yet the knife has a tangible bite to it,not often found on highly polished edges. While I may be a noob to sharpening,I know knives,and Mr. Fernandez will not only sharpen you’re blade,he will optimize it for any job you can throw at it. One knife,and I guarantee you he will make shipping you’re knives off once every few months well worth the wait. Thanks to Mark,Shaun,and of course CKTG!

This case holds almost all my knives and cooking tools (I have way too many knives and tools,hence the "almost"). No problems with durability. Does not take up half the prep table when open,like others I’ve used. Only downside,you’ll want to buy more stuff to fill it up...

I have had this bag for three years now and I have been nothing but happy with the capacity and look of this bag. However,over the past three months the zippers have started to bust,and the fabric on the outside is fraying. Once as a culinary student,and now as a TA at CIA,I recommend this bag,but look to replace in within 2-3 years

This holds just about all of my gear. If only there was a knife kit the size of a rolling suitcase. This kit has a great layout and holds all the knives I need for service plus all the pastry accessories and little tools that help out in the experimentation process. Definitely recommended and go for the ugliest color you can stand,the stares will be satisfying.

I use this kit at culinary school. It’s great for organizing tools and knives,but the quality on the zippers could be better (they split occasionally) and I wish it was a little easier to clean. I do have the older model,however,and it looks like they’ve addressed some of these concerns. Kudos to Koobi!

The performance of this knife justifies its price. Out of the box,it shaved hairs off my forearm with ease; after some tuning on a set of stones,it took and has held a razor’s edge. The ergonomics are neither as subtle nor as elegant as those found on some knives in the Cermax’s price range (such as the Hattori HD),but the fit and finish are first-rate.



Many who have tried this knife after growing accustomed to Japanese knives find the balance handle-heavy. In fact,the balance sits just behind the middle of the bolster. This will offer users accustomed to western knives a sense of familiarity,while offering improved handling and reduced weight in the hand.



Overall,this knife performs at the level expected of a product in this price range. Ergonomics and personal preferences will determine if this knife suits individual users’ needs.

I’m very happy with the Moritaka Gyuto KG-210 Blue "closeout" model. At 145 grams,this is one of the lightest knives I have in this size and fits well in my hand. This was a returned knife and I couldn’t find anything substantially wrong with it other than a tiny nick in the blade edge (that will come out after the 2nd or 3rd sharpening in a year or two).



I’m not worried about the carbon steel rusting since I clean/dry all knives immediately after each use and park them in a vertical knife block.



As an occasional home cook,I haven’t used it enough to judge how well it holds an edge. But I always look forward to using this knife and look forward to sharpening it someday.

I’m really happy with the Moritaka 210mm Gyuto. 145g and felt right in my hand. It’s now my favorite. Cuts better than any of the other 5 chef knives I have in this size. I’ve made a mix of beeswax + mineral oil (3:1) for my cutting boards and use this on this knife as well to keep it from rusting.

This is my favorite Japanese gyuto. The blade is made from a single solid piece of ginsanko (aka G3,gin 3) stainless steel. This steel has a moderate hardness of about 60 HRC,which makes it easy to sharpen,but it still offers decent edge retention and durability. This steel takes a very fine edge,almost like a carbon steel knife. What makes this knife especially outstanding is the geometry. It is extremely thin and light so it handles like a dream and just glides through most food with an effortless feel that has to be experienced to be fully appreciated.



The octagonal handles are very nice too.



Overall fit and finish is outstanding. These really are special knives.

The perfect chef knife. The thinnest,lightest,most agile knife I’ve ever held much less used. It’s a laser. Buy one bigger than you think you need -- you’ll be surprised at how easy and fun it is to use.

If you want a super thin knife that takes a screaming edge this is exactly what you are looking for. This knife is light as a feather and probably the single most nimble gyuto on the planet. It also takes a screaming edge and will out cut many other knives after it dulls due to it’s superior shape.



without a doubt one of the best gyutos on the market I would buy it again in a heart beat

I bought the 300mm gyuto -- which isn’t offered any more.



Cutting with this knife is as close as I’m going to get to using a frikkin’ light saber. I re-beveled the knife to 8 degrees. It can cut through a tomato just by placing the knife on the fruit and letting gravity do the rest.



Buy a bigger one than you think you’ll need. You’ll be thankful for every extra millimeter.

I read a lot about the quality of Hand American (HA) products on Bladeforums. I’m so glad I tried them out. I applied 1 micron HA Diamond Spray to the Balsa Magnetic Pads for stropping and was wonderfully surprised with the results. It has clearly taken my stropping and edge refinement to the next level. Perhaps the ultimate level!

This knife is simply amazing! I have only owned Wustoff and a couple of Shuns until now and this is an entirely different animal. Light and sharp as can be out of the box,this knife can take anything I can throw at it.(no bones though!) I can’t wait to put an even better edge on this and see what it can do. One of my employees,a devout Shun user,tried it out and was smiling ear to ear and saying "Wow,you really feel like you’re holding a fine instrument of culinary death here" Works for me.

I really like the HD knives. They are just as light and sharp as the White #2 series. I haven’t had to sharpen the HD yet and don’t know if it will hold an edge as well as the White #2. They appear to be virtually like a stainless knife although there is a very slight patina,but nothing like the patina developed on a White #2 steel knife.

Ive been waiting to get my hands on this knife 6 months. This thing is freaking awesome. Simply the best knife I own. It sharpens easier then any carbon steel I own and It doesn’t have to be constantly wiped down. I use it to slice proteins,peel and dice vegs. It gets wickedly sharp and holds its edge for a while. If you work the line this is the knife to own. Just don’t keep it out of your sight. With the ebony handle it looks just as good as it cuts.



For the home cook,Use your cleaver to hack thru bones and use your Konosuke HD knives to do the rest.

Wonderful steel! Solid and high quality. The only thing worth mentioning is that mine did not come with the acetate handle pictured. It has the handle pictured on the idahone ceramic rod which does not have an anti-roll feature but does have a ring to hang your steel. If you’re familiar with HandAmerican products then you know that they are subject to change as they see fit. 5/5 for the product,but 4/5 for not being as described.

This was my first chef’s knife. It’s sturdy and heavy,and I still use it from time to time when I am mincing large quantities of garlic or shallots; the extra belly is nice for those tasks. The weight and lack of a defined tip make it difficult to use for precise cuts,though. Most of the time,it stays in my block in favor of my lighter Japanese knives,but there’s no doubting that the Germans make a quality product.

This knife is the reason I currently own Wusthof knives. Very nicely weighted and holds an edge longer than knives of a comparible quality. I prefer the hollow edge as it allows product to separate from the surface of the blade. By far an exceptional design.

Great knife! Nice fit and finish. Good balance. The micarta handle has a nice texture for grip. Sharp as a razor out of the box,easy to steel and sharpen. Beautiful blade. VG-10 steel like a Shin classic,but I personally feel it has a better build. This has become my go to daily herb chopper. Love it! I’d give it 5 stars but I have yet to find the perfect knife. 4.5 Stars.

These stones work very well. I’ve sharpened many knives with them and they seem to wear slowly and cut quickly. All of the stones create an excellent edge. If you’re looking for a decent quality edge for kitchen knives,I think the 1k would suffice. The 3k and 5k refine the edge well but aren’t needed unless you really want a very sharp edge. sharpening through the 5k produces an edge almost good enough for straight razor shaving,though it’s not quite refined enough. Most knives with be plenty sharp with this set. A stone holder is not required but will make their use easier because they are short enough that your hands hit the counter or,in my case,cutting board that I use to prop them up. I’ll be getting a holder soon. Also,you will need a flattening plate if you desire a flat stone. They’re flat when new but dish as you’re sharpening. Supposedly,if you’re good enough,you can use the entire surface to wear the stone evenly but I’m not that good. CK2go has the best prices online that I could find for these stones- and I really looked. Good stones cost money and these are worth the expense. Pony up and you’ll be pleased with your purchase.

Great knife. Lightweight and takes an incredible angle. A great Japanese knife at a low price. A little more work taking care of it than stainless steel but worth the extra maintenance. Prefer this knife far more than my shun.

Bought it for my wife as she cooks most of the time. I got the softer steel compared to the higher price super steel version,1 because I’m cheep and the other because this purchase of a Japanese knife got me really interested in whetstones and other bench stones so I wanted a softer knife to practice on yet still have the real deal. Overall the knife was pretty much what I expected in quality and looks. I think I might end up removing the black finish and get it to a blued steel look and keep it dry or let it discolor naturally over time. I wish I had more experence in which to correctly share a technical review,however it seems a lot more easy to sharpen it compared to the Kitchen aid and Rado knives that get the shaft nowadays because I always have the Moritaki clean so it won’t rust.

Very attractive knife. I like the raw carbon steel look. The handle feels comfortable in my medium to large sized hand,and the blade edge is as sharp as the custom Damascus knife I had made a year ago. The blade is not too thin or thick. A great working knife and a good deal.

Great knife. Very sharp OOTB. Profile and grind make the the all purpose kitchen knife. The only downside is the western style corian handle does make then knife a bit heavy - but the weight is advertised on the site so you know what your are buying. A benefit of the heavier corian is that the knife is balanced over the ferule,rather than over the blade as many gyutos are. Really,it seems you can’t go wrong with this steel - pick the handle that works best for you.

The Global steel and quality we have come to expect. The angle of the handle to the blade and the semicircular shape of the grip-blade connection imparts uncommon versatility.

I’ve long been a fan of Keith’s boron carbide product. I’ve been using it on paper over glass for a long time. Not only does it put an amazing edge on things,but it does it FAST. There’s more to it than particle size and hardness numbers (it is the closest thing to diamond in hardness out there),but the practical side of it is that if you want a screaming sharp edge fast,get it. One of my favorite ’mixes’ is to followup a 16,000 grit edge with some boron carbide. Same particle size but what a combination!

I absolutely love the Hand American boron carbide semi paste. I use it on leather belts on my belt sanders in my knife sharpening business,and I am truly amazed by how quickly the bc puts a finely honed,mirror polished,scary sharp edge on my blades. This product has become a staple in my sharpening routine.

Beats the pants off 1 Micron Diamond paste. Just having used it for 2 days,I can already tell that I’ll never need to research a better 1 Micron compound for the rest of my life.

This stuff works. I had an old "cowboy" belt that had worn through at the buckle. I cut off a piece about 12" long and put some of the paste on the rough side. It works fast and definitely improves the edge leaving a mirror shine. After a dozen or so passes on the side with the boron carbide paste,I finish stropping on the smooth side of the leather. I have never made a sharper edge. I have never seen a sharper edge even when done by "professionals". Get some of this stuff and you won’t regret it.

I was really sceptical of how this paste on a piece of balsa wood could possibly make my knife sharper.

Let me tell you this took my knife from what I considered sharp to very sharp,from Sloth (The Goonies) to Russel Peters

Or in practical terms,from being able to cut paper to being able to cut the paper with just the suggestion of me cutting it.

This is part of my daily knife routine.

I have a part time sharpening business and use a number of compounds(from $2.25 to $40 per stick)...mostly chrome oxide . This stuff works very well...It sharpens quickly and effectively and leaves a very usable razor sharp edge that may be as sharp as most chefs will need. It spreads better than waxy sticks and each spread sharpens numerous times(havnt finished testing) I have urged chef friends to use this as their kitchen strop for most prep work.I use card stock for stropping on wood.For some of my knives I use a green compound for a finer razor cut. I’m going to try the Green Chrome .5 compound next.Thanks Mark for your honest no B.S. well informed info

A must have. As someone already said,this would be my only strop abrasive if I could only use one. Leaves a toothy,razor sharp edge. The edge is PERFECT for EDC pocket knives. I’m no chef but I’m very happy with the resulting edge on food knives. Wife LOVES the edges.

After six monthtesting I can say that this stuff works extremely well...after your fine water stones(I stop at 6000) or very fine oil stones(say soft washita etc) or fine diamond steel then a ceramic stick...this puts an excellent razor edge on knives...quickly too. I’ve used it in my sharpening business and had chefs try it too.For many uses this is as fine an edge as you may want or need. You can also use it on paper to polish knife steel discoloration and shine other metals(lay off the silver and gold unless very skilled) It washes off better than oily or waxy compounds...do apply it sparingly as little is needed...it also can rub off onto you..but washes right out. I spilled some by accident in my work vehicle Subaru(!!!).... Mark very graciously gave me a discounted price on my next bottle...Many thanks to you Mark!.... and CKTG!

This stuff applies so unbelievably smooth side of a leather strop and works amazing. Works equally well on the rough leather side. I use a Lansky for sharpening and after the ultrafine stones,this is my next step. I’m amazed how fast this stuff works. Lasts a long time too. You don’t need too much either. Going to get the green next.

If You are only going to own 1 knife in Your kitchen,THIS IS IT! Konosuke HD steel is easy to sharpen & keeps a great edge. I find it gets as sharp as White #2 (not WS#1),keeps an edge almost as good as Blue steels. Thiss knife is very thin and thus light weight in Your hands. But the best thing is it virtually carefree - doesn’t stain or rust like most carbons. If You are like me and own Several knives,than You should at least buy one in the Konosuke HD line to add to Your collection as You will find Yourself using more than You would imagine - I own 4 HDs even though I prefer the Konosuke Fujiyama series in White steel #1,but with the HD line there is much less care & no rust/stain worries.

This knife really is perfection. It is a complete joy to use and everyone who has used it has been amazed. Case in point. I took it to be sharpened and the guy who sharpened it told me that its design was simply beautiful. If you are on this page and ready to take the plunge,do it!!!

I have been using the 165mm Petty by Stephan Fowler for almost a year now and it is great. Very versatile and the edge is holding out well. I really enjoy this knife.

I am a chef and I prefer the shorter knives usually. This is a big knife but it is great! I love Global and this one is even better than most. It has a full bolster on it so it is easier to grip than on the the other Global knifes that have the tapered bolsters. I use it daily and love it!

Not for the professional chef but a boon in the kitchen. While I have large numbers of knives in the house our Kyocera ceramic knives have been our go-to knife for the last 10 years when we are dealing with tomatoes and similar vegetables. Cleanly breaks the skin and goes right in. The ceramic blade needs to be treated with respect so I would not recommend ceramic for chef’s knife or professional use,the slicer is really useful in the busy home kitchen. Only caution is how sharp these blades are. Both my wife and I have managed to cut almost to our bones with this knife when we first bought it. Only other caution is that re-sharpenning (which should be infrequent) requires either a diamond sharpenener (In Japan they recommend it) or sending the blade back to Kyocera for a $10 sharpenning. Each sharpenning should last years.

The knives arrived quickly and are very sharp and easy to clean. The one downside is that the handles are significantly smaller in diameter than most other chef and utility knives. If you have small hands this would be a great choice. If you have longer fingers ( most adult males) I would pick another knife such as the MAC,the handles on Global knives are not comfortable to me because of this.

I have this knife and the 8" chef,and 6" slicing/utility knife from the 5 star line. All of the knives are great. The only complaint I have with this knife is the handle is actually longer than the blade,thus making it awkward to do delicate knife work.

Excellent knife. Picked it up as a quick and cheap replacement for a honyaki yanagi that was stolen. Not quite as lively but at less than a fifth of the price of the honyaki I have been more than pleased with its performance. Came with a solid edge and only needed a little polishing to make effortless usukuzuri cuts. Steel is easy to sharpen holds an edge very well and is durable and chip resistant. I’ve had better knives but at this price it is impossible to beat the global

It is the ultimate knife for thin slicing. When do you want make thin slices,this is the knive.



There are two things that - when I do - the knife must be this one: one of them is "caponatta of eggplant". You must slice eggplant as thin as spaghetti!



Another thing when I slice cheese,ham and prosciutto! As I have Italian ancestors,I like - in the winter - slice these things and eat with bread and wine. You need to make thin slices,too,less than 2 mm. This is the knive.



It has no the better steel,it is not the sharpest,it has no the best handle... but it has the better design,ultra thin blade... and hollow!



I don’t know if you use the knives you have in stock to make some tests. Try to slice potatoes,1,5 mm each slice. As much I know you,I believe you don’t. If you make no test with the knives you have in stock,I advise you to buy one of them. If you need,I can give you the name of a Knive Store I know there,in USA... The owner is a very nice guy! :)

I meet Stephan a couple of months ago told him that I was a chef in Atlanta,and that I wanted a custom knife. He said “well come over”. Lol. But never the less we hatched out my new knife and I and as I was about to leave he said “while you wait for your knife take these”. So I have used just about every kind of knife that Stephan has made and they’re absolutely amazing. Beautiful burl handles that to the 52100 steel by the way which is my favorite (sexy polish). Stephan Fowler knives are in a league of their own.

If you are looking for one knife to do it all,this is it. The DT ITK has impeccable fit and finish,is made from a superlative kitchen knife steel,has a great profile and super geometry.



This knife is robust enough to handle pretty much any prep job,and the convex grind+distal taper gives it the geometry needed to fall through food.



Easily worth 2 to 3 times as much as it costs.

This knife is advertised as "Limited Edition" of 300,but I have doubts about how limited it really is. There was a limited run in 2013 and there was another run in early 2014,so perhaps Shun is referring to limiting it to only 300 knives per run,but with possible additional runs in the future.



Anyway,I absolutely love this gorgeous knife. There are some knife snobs who look down on this because it’s a Shun,calling it a "soul-less" knife made by a large factory,or any of such garbage descriptions. That’s all baloney. It’s a handmade knife crafted by some highly skilled people at Shun. It has plenty of soul to it.



The knife weighs about 9.8 ounces,i.e. about the same weight as a comparably sized German knife. It has a tall blade,which I prefer,but it doesn’t fit in some normal sized knife block slots.



Typical of Shun gyutos,the belly on this knife has a slight curve,which gives it decent rocking ability if that’s your style of cutting. The curve is nowhere near as pronounced as on German knives,but definitely slightly more than on most gyutos. It suits me just fine.



The fit and finish are totally flawless.



The blade is GORGEOUS to the max. I do worry,how future sharpening will affect the appearance of the blade.



Whereas most damascus blades with a heavy acid etch have a lot of resistance when cutting through hard veggies,this knife is smooth because the damascus pattern is highly polished and offers no friction.



The handle is very comfortable and gives the knife great balance.



I haven’t used it long enough to have to sharpen it and so can’t comment on edge holding quality of the steel or ease of sharpening.



To anyone but knife snobs,this is an excellent knife nonpareil.



Is it worth $500? To me it is,unquestionably.

All of my comments are as a home cook,not as a professional chef. The professional chef can have different needs from the home chef and many prefer a very light blade which I am not necessarily a fan of as the blades can be less robust. This knife is absolutely gorgeous and sharp. It cuts vegetables effortlessly,and I have also tried the tomato test with it (cut a tomato horizontally using only one hand,letting the knife itself do all the cutting). It easily passed this test.

I like the fact that the blade is wide and strong. It allows rocking. The handle and integration with the blade is very well done and allows for an extremely comfortable pinch grip (very much like a Kramer). The back of the blade is also polished which makes the pinch grip even more comfortable.

The damascus design is gorgeous! This is a work of art to use and behold on a daily basis.

I have had my Blazen 270 for about 6 months. The knife is great. it came very sharp out of the box and the fit and finish is excellent. The knife is light for it’s size and reasonably thin. After using it with the factory edge for a while I sharpened it to 10 degrees per side on my Edge Pro and finished it with a loaded strop. Now it cuts like a laser.



If you are looking for a western handled 270 Gyuto I would highly recommend it.

I have been using this knife for about 2 years now and it is one of my favorite knives. It takes and holds a super sharp edge. Also it has great geometry. The distal taper helps out a lot. What i like most about this knife is that it doesn’t have to be babied. It is solid enough that it can take real abuse in a professional kitchen environment.

I have had this knife for so many years that I really cannot recall being without it,and I cannot imagine being without it now. The straight edge makes dicing and mincing small alliums (garlic,shallots,scallions) so much easier than with rocker style blades. The level straight edge of the blade is extremely easy to re-sharpen on a stone or hone on a strop. I love the ’spur’ on the blade edge nearest the handle for digging into packages and the new space age cellophane packaging that is otherwise all but impenetrable without ruining the cutting edge or point of the blade. This little knife looks klugey but is any serious cook’s dream.

one of the best shaped paring knives. super comfortable grip and feel. when i first purchased the knife the heel of the blade was a tad bit too long for my hands to tourne but as time and sharpening went on,it is the perfect size now. highly recomend this knife for all small tasks. if carbon steel isnt a factor,this is a must.

It took me a while to get back to writing a review on this knife. Originally I had purchased the discounted petty because of the handle crack. But when I got the knife,it totally blew me away. Which is why I got the 210,my 240 Nenox was starting the wear thin,so I needed a new veg prep knife. The transition from one handle to the next was seamless. I actually prefer the Hybrid now actually. Word of advice this is a very thin knife. Chopping hair thin Negi,or Daikon and you’re fine. But I needed to take apart a Hamachi,and ended up severely cracking the edge,the remarkable thing is that silver 3 tends to wire quickly. Meaning a new fresh edge was only about an hour or so worth of sharpening,for me,on a set of Shaptons. I gave this knife 5 stars because it’s a beautiful Kono,their best handle-work by far. The steel,as well as thin grinds make this not a knife for someone who will need to get tougher jobs done. It needs to be pampered,but when you treat her nice this steel gets soo thin,and shaving sharp.

This is a nice step up from the 1000 grit stone. It seems like it will last forever and you don’t have to bother with the polish tapes. I got a nice polished edge with this stone.

Despite the history and quality of this knife company is excellent I felt this knife was just a little to flexible for my taste and is difficult to keep a good edge on it due to its flexibility

I use this knife every single day as a line cook and can say that it has been absolutely amazing. I throw it around and chop/slice with it all day long. The edge has held very,very well and the steel has performed flawlessly. Easy enough to sharpen and even better when this bad boy comes to holding an edge. This knife is worth all the money and way more. I am as picky as they come when it comes to my kit,this knife is on top. Great weight,great handle. Just don’t let anyone use it,they will not let it go!

The knife weighs out to 250 Grams



I got this knife for xmas and it came extremely sharp out of the box. I could slice the top of a tomato horizontally without even holding the tomato. f&f was great,but not the best,but since it is a handcrafted knife.. I guess one can appreciate the flaws. I’ve used it for 2 days at work and I prep 2 hours each time and the edge has been great.



If you’re looking for a serious knife with some glam,I highly recommend this knife.

Superb boning knife. This knife comes with a nice factory edge that holds up well. Blade has a little flex as needed,but is not whippy like a long thin fillet knife. Handle is super grippy even when wet with water,fat,or blood.

This knife for the price cannot be beat. I decided since I work in a busy kitchen that while hacking away at chickens I did not have time to be gentle with the knife and worry about chipping the blade of a more expensive knife. Well I was surprised at how much I like this knife. I have a lot of Forschner knives for my house use now. Also my culinary instructors all use fibrox pairing knives since they are always beat on or lost/stolen.

So far,the knife has been great! Very sharp,and the slight flex is great for taking a little meat with the skin off pieces of salmon,which we then fry,per sushi restaurants. It’s a lot better deal than a $90 German rigid knife I had,where the blade actually shattered into two pieces when I hit it on the wooden counter one day!

Best knife for the price for a Hibachi chef in my opinion,have been using this model and size for almost 10 years now. perfect balance and sharps very easily...Good for household use too. get one and see it for yourself!

First off awesome product and price.As stated these are quality and not like the 3m film,much more durable.



I used this after a 1k,5k,10k,and 13k sigma power,even though I think the 13k was overkill,would be fine after a 10k.



Sharp isnt even the word after finishing with this.More than enough for most users.

This saya is well made and pretty. Sadly it does not fit any of my 150mm petties. It is long but not high enough cut out. In particular it does not fit the Hiromoto AS,the Miyabi 7000 MC nor 2 different Spanish Jimenez petties. Maybe after a few years of aggressive sharpening the Hiromoto AS will have its day.

This was my first Takeda but it won’t be my last. I bought it based on the maker’s reputation on the knife forums. I wasn’t disappointed! This is a feather light knife that I thought might be too small when I ordered it. But after some use I have found it to be a great vegetable knife for my home kitchen. The Rosewood handle is a $100 upgrade on most traditional Japanese knives so this knife,while seeming expensive is a real bargain!

Light,REALLY thin,and a killer--I mean SMOKIN’ edge.



Don’t think twice about it...

My wife got me this as a 40th b-day present as I’d mooned over it in the past and been looking to move to a carbon-steel knife. Apart from being beautiful,it’s perfectly balanced,has an incredible grind (a forged blade that doesn’t wedge),rounded on top and in the back,and comes absurdly sharp OOTB. The only slight letdown is the handle fit,which is a bit sloppy. A bit of sandpaper and some board-wax corrected that issue quickly. It’s absurdly expensive,but it’s a marvelous piece of craft from one of Japan’s natural treasures. It’s hard to imagine anyone regretting this purchase...

This knife is just gorgeous,the handle is mmasterfully crafted.

The Pictures of this knife just don’t do it justice. The super steel moritaka produces has become my favorite. Easy to sharpen and holds a nasty edge.

After much research,I purchased a 270 White #2 Konosuke and couldn’t be happier. Great profile and all around workhorse. The edge was fair OOTB,but takes to the stones easily and takes a very fine edge. Patina is already forming and I am very happy with the fit and finish,smooth and very comfy. Great service from Mark and I will be buying more knives when my wife is not looking.

I got option 4. A bit more effort goes into sharpen ng,but the M390 has an extremely tight grain structure that takes the sharpest edge I have ever seen. The heat treat on this steel must have been phenomenal. Although this is harder to sharpen,I think it even gets sharper than my Takeda 240. It is also an extremely durable knife that after going through chicken bones showed no signs of microchipping or rolling under magnification. The custom handle does make this knife slightly more handle heavy,but the beautiful thinning job done on the blade more than likely contributed to that equally. The balance point is right where the handle meets the neck. On a knife this light,it is really just nit-picking for me to say anything about the balance point because I never even noticed it until about a

week after I got it and decided to find out where it was exactly. I regularly get the chance to try it out on a variety of items and having a very thin blade allows it to not only make quick work of onions,but also more fibrous items like turnips,rutabagas,and carrots. Being largely unreactive this knife does not require San Mai cladding like which allows it to be much thinner. It is this thinness combined with its durability and edge taking/holding ability that make this knife shine. The beautiful job done by Tim Johnson on the blade and handle turns just as many heads with its performance as it does with its appearance.

As always,thanks to Mark and Susan for bringing products like this to market. It is the small business owner,who brings quality and care to their customers and products that will set the bar higher for the industry. You are an inspiration to anyone who takes pride in their work.

Mark has a real winner in this knife. I find I grab it frequently for most chopping tasks.



It is well balanced with a thin blade profile. The blade is very wide to allow great knuckle clearance. The belly profile allows rocking the knife. The spine is alreay polished,a nice plus.



This is a true 240mm blade length. Therefore,its length is only about 3/4" shorter than most 270mm gyutos.



I think the knife could have been a little sharper. I spent a little time sharpening it on my waterstones and stropped it.

I have to agree with Roger - this knife is a winner. For $150,you’ll be hard pressed to find such a great steel on a blade this length.



Lots of great features - knuckle clearance for days,great height for scooping,rounded spine for comfort,and bellied up just enough that I’m getting stubbed.



That doesn’t even touch on how fun the knife is to use - light,thin,agile...makes prep around the kitchen a lot of fun.



To echo Roger,my only complaint is the factory edge. This was my first time sharpening CPM 154,and it took a great edge. I cut a more acute bevel and finished it on a suehiro 5k + stropping...wicked sharp.



Don’t miss out on this knife. It’s a great deal and a lot of fun.

If you are looking for a professional vegetable prep knife,then this is one of the best you will ever purchase. In addition to being incredibly beautiful,the Kanetsune Usuba is amazing in the kitchen. It is the definition of vegetable chopping; it is designed to cut very hard rind vegetables with complete ease. The cutting surface is very hard (to hold an edge),and it has plenty of heft to flow the cut. This is my go-to knife for vegetable prep work. You will not be disappointed with this knife.

This knife is extremely sharp,but casual or amateur cooks should not purchase this knife as the steel is very sensitive to staining. You must wash it immediately after every use.

I also really enjoy the precision that is possible with this stone. Unlike the previous reviewer,I really like my Chosera 10k a lot. It plays a key role in removing larger grit lines before using the Ozuku Asagi,which is saved for the final polish stages.

We first learned of these knives from a friend. We never seemed to have a sharp knife in the house and no matter how hard I tried - I could never sharpen the knives to be really sharp. We bought our first one and could not believe how sharp it was and better yet - how it never seems to get dull. Based on this experience - I bought two more and was very pleased that they has improved on an already excellent knife. We now have 3 very sharp knives and would and do recommend these to anyone who is tired of dull knives.

This was one of the first knives i ever bought for use in a professional kitchen. Until the i had been using wustof and henckels. My chef at the time recommended i buy these knives as they were a better value and preformed better overall. For a few years after that,this was my go to knife. It was only when i started using high end Japanese knives that i stopped using this so much. But i still keep it in my knife kit. This may be the single best value in kitchen cutlery for those looking at western style knives. I highly recommend this for both home and pro use.

i like the knife,its just not my favorite. i ordereda few different style of knifes and this one was included in my first real kinfe purchase. it works fine its just not as sharp as the other knife that i bought. and i now understand the difference in a western handle vs the octagonal handles. i dont find this knife handle is as confortable as the japenese style handle. this lack of comfort and feels wierd in my large hands. the ok sharpness and lack of comfort are why i dont recomend it unless your going strictly for price and value.

I got this stone as a replacement for a small 6"x2" fine/600 mesh diamond plate that I had been using to flatten my original 7"x1.5" King 1000/6000 combo stone. I really needed a bigger flattening plate since I recently got several large stones that the small diamond plate wouldn’t cover well enough for accurate flattening. While the Peacock is very flat and had a nice aggressive cut at first,that ended when I used it to remove the oil impregnated and saddled portion of two older natural Arkansas stones... it stayed flat OK,but the hardness of the novaculite stones apparently dulled its surface grit,changing the cutting characteristics much for the worse. If you get one of these I would recommend using it on only relatively soft synthetic water stones,ceramics,north american naturals or even harder Japanese or European naturals may destroy its ability to flatten very quickly. I did use a small coarse diamond plate on it,which restored some of its initial cutting power,but not to the point it was when new. I’ll be getting an 8"x3" DMT or other large coarse diamond plate to replace it and relegating the Peacock to use as a chip repair stone (although it leaves a very deep and ugly scratch pattern,so it may not get much use even in that capacity). If used only on softer Japanese stones,this stone deserves a four or five star rating,it works very well in that role,the only detriment being the rough scratch pattern it leaves on finer softer stones like my King 6000.

This hone base is very well made,sturdy and stable. I am using it with a balsa pad and the boron carbide paste and I also have the bovine leather pad that I’ll be using with the chromium oxide paste.

I’ve found the Hone base and the Magnetized honing materials,leather,felt,Balsa wood,and glass work remarkably well,and make the honing process really quick,and easy. What a great idea.

Base as such would work fine. Unfortunately none of the necessary media for using with the device was available (out of stock?) It isn’t worth much unless you have the necessary media to go with it!!!

I purchased this set from H.A and its been great. I’ve had it for three years and it works as well,if not better than the first day I bought it. Don’t let the two star rating above fool you. This is worth every penny.

Yet another 5 star product from this site. A quality base with weight to it.



The magnetic strips of balsa and horse leather I purchased stick very well,so no chance of slipping.



Don’ mind the 2 star post above. I was smart enough to get some balsa and pastes for mine.



With the pastes,you only need about 2 passes on each side,and your done. Very fast,very effective,very comfortable to use. Get it if you don’t already have one.

I ordered the whole range of HandAmerican products and Mark shipped it all the way to Australia for me. It was totally worth it! Keith has provided a very convenient and well-designed system. I like having all the HA gear because it allows me to experiment with different sprays,compounds,media and substrates according to usage or whim and this adds greatly to my learning experience and journey.



I would definitely buy this all over again. These products are not just effective,affordable and reliable,they exceeded all my expectations!

This is a beautiful knife blade and handle. It is really sharp,I can shave with this knife no kidding. I am more used to the classic chef style blade,so I can’t tell you as of yet about the comfort of use. I can say that just looking at the knife makes my day.

Mark went beyond the service one can expect and assembled the "Full Monty" EdgePro set before items all had been registered in stock so the package would reach it in time for me to bring back from the US. What exceptional service! I’ve been sharpening a few knives now and the set is superb! I highly recommend CKTG!

This knife is absolutely amazing. It had a really good ootb edge on it,used it for about 4 days of breaking down chickens and other proteins. when I did take it to my stones it was easy to sharpen a really nice long lasting edge. This knife feels great in my hand,with some nice heft to it,I have big hands. This knife will definitely last me a long time,and I love the rustic beauty of Fowlers knives,I will be buying more from him. Great service from Mark,shipped same day.

First off good value and price.



As said durable,not like the 3m films.



Used this as the last step in a progression of a 1k chosera,6k sigma power select 2 6k,10k chosera,13k sigma power,.5 micron plate.



Really hard to determine sharpness at this point,worked over an el cheapo aus 6 santokou to a 15.



It absolutely shaved hair,very course mind you,up the backside of my forearm with absolutely no resistance dry.No pull whatsoever.



I cant imagine the result going further with kens finer to sprays on leather then plain leather.



If you are looking for stupid sharp this is your ticket.

other than getting a new glass blank,these are nothing at all like dmt diamond...these are 3m abrasives just glued to the glass...and you would have thought to use non-water based glue but...the glass became unglued from the metal after 10 min...and the tapes will not last long enough for more than just one knife...so you will need more of those...

I was waiting timidly for someone to review this

"factory ginsan" but Im glad I just went for it.

Great knife,great steel,great price.. the ginsan from hiromoto gets shadowed from its more popular ao super brother,but if your looking for full stainless. this is the knife to get,handle is nicely sized,not big. f & f is modestly clean.

Tough and holds its edge very well.

And the hiromoto knives come with an encouraging letter on how the knife will make your food happier and thus the customers happier. (Nice to know we’re on the same page)

Would be satisfied paying twice for this knife,but glad its so cheap!

Reach for this knife 90% of the time at home and enjoy it just as much as a paring knife at work.

Have really enjoyed it. Very nimble,and took a fantastic,razor edge I could shave my face with. The G3 feels great on the stones and has held the edge for over a month and is still tip top.

For this price I am very happy. Reserving the fifth star for a true game changer with a wa handle I suppose,but this blows away anything I have used prior.

I was fortunate enough to try this knife,but with a different handle. It really surprised me how easily is gets through food. The edge geometry is rather thin,while the spine has enough stiffness to tackle most ingredients. This knife performs very well,and has a cool finish.

Hand American’s 0.5 micron diamond spray has made my stropping results a whole lot better than before. "Jumping" from a Naniwa synthetic Aoto (also sold by Chef Knives to GO) to this spray produces an edge sharp enough to give backbone shivers. Recently put such an edge on a Sakai Takayuki Grand Cheff gyuto (you can get yours from Chef Knives to Go) and the edge lasted longer than when finished with a King 8,000 grit waterstone or 0.3 micron aluminum oxide lapping film.



Very psyched about this spray and only wish I had the vocabulary to provide proper praise.

Excellent knife!

It’s’extremeley sharp and lightweigth wich makes it so easy to use. The only thing is that the way the handle is made it feels ackward when holding it for left handed people.

Lovely knife,cuts extremely well,holds a great edge and feels very comfortable to use due to the nicely shaped Rosewood handle. Fit and finish on the knife I have is also very good and differs from the more rustic finish of the supreme and aogami series.

The Takishima is not a hard stone. It is an easy stone to use and produces a good amount of mud which ’refines’ itself nicely. It does leave a nice mirror finish on the hard steel and,one of it’s nicest characteristics - leaves and extremely uniform finish on the soft steel with excellent contrast. The mud is silky smooth and for final polishing with the stone I find a light touch,’floating’ in the mud gives it that ultra uniform finish. I used it to redo a Konesuke kiritsuke,giving a very close duplication of it’s original natural stone finish. I preceeded it with an Igarashi stone,which is a great medium grit stone. The Takishima is somewhat similar to a hideryama stone,but with a somewhat finer finish.

Fantastic to use. Great for the home cook as well as chefs. Has kept its edge very well. Light to use with the ergo handles. Excellent shipping only took 12 days to get to New Zealand.

this knife as a utility knife is pretty close to perfect.



210mm length and just enough knuckle clearance plays nice with cutting boards while working good in your hands as well.



the steel holds an edge extremely well and responds superbly to light honing.



sharpening takes a touch more effort than most others but not difficult.



it does not need to be babied,the thing’s a rock star,if you let it be.

SIX+ STAR!!! Got this with a custom maple handle & had KEN shape edge & sharpen it. KILLER EDGE!!! Most impressive is the weight (or lack there of) - feather light. My favorite knife,only negative is that for some items I chop/dice is that at 210mm (around 8") it is a bit short at times. If You want a thicker heavier knife buy a Watanabe,but if You want a Light Laser Edge Knife THIS IS IT. ZDP-189 steel is not cheap (HRC 66),but YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!! The Konosuke HD series is also great but a bit more weighty (not as light). Again I STRESS **KILLER EDGE**

Outstanding knife. I was looking for a smaller,laser edge knife,and this knife is it! I ordered mine with a custom handle (different from the one in the photo),and Mark and Isaiah did a fantastic job!!!

I recently read an article on chef’s knives in Money Magazine. I purchesed a featured Messermeister Elite 8" chefs knife,along with a pair of scissors from Knivestogo based on the magazine article. Now I own a great knife,razor sharp,and through the Messermeister web site,located a top notch sharpening service just a few miles away. Now my knife inventory includes the sharpest edges anywhere. A great purchase!

Great quality! Both items were as advertised although I was disappointed to find the shears were made in China,not Germany. The knife has got the heft and feel of a high quality cutting instrument that give’s one a lot of confidence in their own ability. The shears have a lot of nice features and are very useful on a daily basis.

Chef’s knife is fabulous. Highly recommended. The scissors cuts well but it’s one of those "do everything" gadgets and it has a built-in jar opener and screwdriver. Will probably never use the jar opener and the screwdriver is so sharp and ill placed that it’s a hazard. I’ll file it down so we don’t cut ourselves on it.

On the good side... it was free.

All I can say is Wow! I took a chance on this knife because the handle is so different. But I am extremely glad I did. I have owned 3 other boning knives and I have really never felt that they were very good. This knife puts them all to shame. It has a nice long blade that is not "too" long and it is very flexible. I boned out a 23 pound ham very,very easily and also used the knife to skin fish fillet with ease. The handle is remarkable. It feels so natural in the hand and its weight gives you very precise control. The knife is stainless steel and cleans easily. It has earned its home in my knife block!

I especially like the strong taper and excellent balance. Although relatively new,it looks like it is going to hold an edge very well. My wife loves the handle. A comfortable knife for both of us.

I bought this knife from Chefknivestogo about two months ago and have found myself using it almost every day. The blade is quite thin and agile and retains its sharpness very well. As such,I find myself using it more as a baby-suji than a large paring knife,although this knife suits itself to both uses readily.



The steel seems very reactive to me but,to be fair,I’ve paired tomatoes with it and done a bunch of things that would make any knife patina quickly.



I’ve never met a petty I’ve liked better and the price is right here.

Fantastic Knife,edge is still very sharp sharp after a week of work. I used it to cut soft and hard cheeses,meat,fruits,and vegetables.



The edge does patina but it didn’t stain or discolor any of my food. I even left it hanging damp for awhile and didn’t have any signs of rust. Awesome knife!

Great knife that holds an edge fantastically. Takes about a months worth of work to finally get to any sort of condition that requires sharpening. Then that takes very little effort to get razor sharp.



The only drawback: super fragile steel. First,our dishwasher lightly dropped the knife into a ban marie and destroyed the tip. Then recently,I knocked the knife off of my cutting board and a majority of the blade has tons of chips,and the chips are very deep.

WOW this little knife is plain sweet! Extremely sharp and nimble. I wanted a utility knife to bring with me to work and this thing is easily a 9/10.

Steel is GREAT it is extremely sharp and the edge retention seems really good so far. The only possible con is the handle. There is a very very small chip that doesn’t bother me at all as well as the handle and tang not coming together as smoothly as they can... In all honesty i could care less! This is an absolutely GREAT buy. would recommend this knife to anyone.

Great little utility knife. Sharp out of the box,but I still took it to my loaded balsa and horse butt strop. Now it is hair shaving sharp. used it last night at home for some fine vegetable prep,and to bone a chicken. Edge was still sharp after going through joints. I am taking it on the line tonight to put it through some abuse. Can’t wait to see how well it shines there.

I have had this knife for almost a year now and I have loved every second of using it. I personally love White #1 carbon,nearly every knife I own is made of it. It takes an edge better than anything else. It does have the drawback of needing to be sharpened a lot more often though. This knife is one of the most comfortable yanagis that I have used. The weight is a bit heavier than average,but this adds to the control and the comfort,in my opinion. Buying this knife has convinced me to order the gyuto version of it to replace my Fujiwara Terayasu Nashiji gyuto.

You wanna know why there is barely anything written about this knife and why the video above is of a sharpening demo and not the the knife in use - because I think people are skeptical of the line,I was,I still think their logo is kinda corny and not sexy and exotic like other real Japanese Knife brands or even Shuns. I bought this knife only by accident when the salesperson took it out of the case to get to a different brands knife and it caught my eye and decided to try it. This is a damn good knife,I like the gyuto style blade profile,the handle is kinda small in a good way and the design just fits your hand real well. The blade aint a super lazer but is damn sharp and it has a good feeling of heft to it. Some might like a bigger belly on their knife but it’s fine by me. This knife has been a surprise welcome addition to my knife roll and I totally recommend it if you are looking for a sharp,well shaped,stainless Japanese style knife that can put in a solid day of work.

I’ve owned this knife for about six months now,and there’s nothing in my drawer I’d rather use. I have rather largish hands (I can reach past an octave on a piano),but it fits my grip well,and it fits smaller hands equally well. The blade is sharp enough for paper thin slicing and hefty enough to easily break things down. The balance is great,and it has just enough weight to it to get the job done without tiring you out. In the price range,I don’t think anything else can beat it,but just like any tool,it’s ultimately a matter of preference. Do give it a try though...I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Bought this for my travel kit but it stays out on the board at home getting used every day. Have to admit this is all the slicing cleaver I "need",clearly a Best Buy. Good F&F and a nice thin sharp blade compared to my China made cleavers and a fraction of the $ of my Japan made cleavers. Not "small" either.

I got introduced to HA products 7 months ago and I haven’t looked back since. The SiC is very hard and removes metal very fast compared to other compounds in the 2 micron range. It’s very easy to apply and to clean. It’s the perfect step up from a 5k stone and produces a great edge. I prefer finishing the edge with Boron and CBN afterwards.

Relatively thin,comfortably light,and solidly made,the Pro S Santoku is a solid option for those who like their knives shorter and more nimble. It isn’t my go-to knife because I prefer longer,classic chef knives,but there are others in my household who reach for the Santoku and are always well-served by it.

I have to admit that I was completely shocked at how well these stones perform. Although I didn’t buy them directly from Chef Knives to Go,they are from the same supplier. I had heard a lot of hype about the Shaptons but really didn’t appreciate why people are so excited about them until I tested them for myself. These stones put a gorgeous edge on the blade really quickly. They’re also easier and cleaner to work with than other waterstones.

I have now owned this knife for several months. The steel is the most "ideal" that I have worked with. I hand-sharpen with ease with a fine diamond steel (no 30-min job),and the blade literally sinks into my wood cutting board. The edge also stays sharp for an extended period. Outstanding knife. Get one.

This knife makes cutting a joy and not a chore. I use it for many hours each day and it’s light,but feels good in my hand at the same time. It slides effortlessly through everything and I enjoy using it! What a great investment :-)

This knife is incredible. I work at a high end Japanese restaurant in Chicago and use this every night to cut fish for sashimi. It takes a great edge and stays sharp for a long time. The best parts are how easy it is to take care of,being stainless,and how beautiful it is. Customers ask me about it or comment on it quite often. The only downside is Mark told me Konosouke is not making this knife anymore,not even as custom,so that sucks.

Wow. This knife is an anomoly- and worth every cent for the amount of ZDP189. Elated to see this composite in the culinary realm (hope to see S35VN surface soon!). Perfect balance and finish with Konosuke. The blade maintains a very thin profile at 270mm,which is a pleasure,as it gives the knife extended range with regards to tasking. A fine addition to anyone’s quiver. You will be pleased I promise.

The thing about ZDP-189 is first it is Stainless (doesn’t rust like carbon) Second it is solid (not clad like most SS) What I like is that it hardly ever needs sharpening - great edge and holds it forever. CKTG has the best selection,price and service around - can’t go wrong with CKTG!!! ZDP-189 is costly because it is so tough to work with but it isn’t hard to sharpen (like some claim) and Mark has some cheaper priced ZDPs in his Richmond collection - WinWin. Best SS around period!

This is one of the best deals on a santoku out there. I collect kitchen knives as a hobby. I own fine German,Japanese,French,and these 1905s may be my favorites. They are extremely well made,well balanced,proper heft,and hold and sharpen very well. All 1905s are a fantastic value. I use a santoku as a utility knife,mostly,yet this one is so nice and pleasant to use,I often choose it for tasks I would prefer a favorite ten inch chef for. Wonderful knife. Fantastic handle. Works very well for both men and women. Buy one,it’ll become the one you grab on impulse.

Initially I was a little skeptical of this set because it only had 4 knives and I didn’t know how good the bamboo block was going to be. Now that I have it,I can recommend it 100%. The knives are beautiful and great cutters plus the block is a gorgeous Shun block. Chefknivestogo.com did an awesome job assembling this set.

I finally decided to buy some "real" knives. I looked long and hard at Wusthof and a friend of mine has Henckels which I tried. Both very nice. Then I looked at the Japanese knives-really slick. I emailed Mark and he suggested the Tojiro’s. I bought the 5 pc set with the Shun block and they are fantastic. The balance and weight is nicer than the Hencels and sharp????? Just ask my thumb-slices like butter :)

I couldn’t be happier and I will certainly be more careful when drying the chef Knife.

Talk about surprised,I never thought that paper would work as well as a honing material,but it does. Works especially well on thin bladed knives,such as filet knives. I speak with experience,my son,and several other young men decided to hit the trout streams early,seven young men,and a certain father received the job of fileting 25 stockers,from a put and take stream. The filet knife was still sharp as could be after the midnight endeavor.

The greatest asset of the Kenneth Schwartz polycrystalline diamond spray is the large quantity (10.5 carats) of finely graded polycrystalline diamond particles in the spray bottle. I use bench strops with a very fine nap (such as "Russian" leather) and it’s quick and easy with this product to saturate the napped surface with diamond particles. The negative of this product is no matter what agitation I give the spray bottle,it always sprays with a lot of small "splats" so I haven’t been able to give a uniform spray although these "splats" of greater diamond content don’t seem to affect the ability to refine the knife edge on the strop. I also have polycrystalline diamond aerosol sprays from another source and while I can achieve a very uniform spray pattern with these products,the total amount of diamonds in the aerosol cans is small compared to the heavy concentration of diamods in just a few pump sprays of the Kenneth Schwartz product.

I really like this. Easy to use,compact,portable,easy to store... it has it all. I actually prefer it for my softer knives (ie less than HRC61) because it cuts/abrades less than ceramic or grooved glass. Extremely easy to use - hold the knife steady and move the Knife Mate very lightly across the edge at the bevel angle. Straightens the teeth like a dream! This is going to form part of my travel kit. Keith and Mark have done it again! Highly recommended - FIVE STARS.

Truly a work of art. I’ll send in a picture when I get a chance,but I have never seen a blade like this and it does its job like nobody’s business. The fit and finish is even better than expected,I mean the edges on the octagonal handle are even rounded! Worth every penny and then some.

I gotta be honest,I didn’t think I was gonna like this blade all that much. I thought I was just spending a lot of money to test drive the funy to see if I liked the style,so I could get the one from the FujiBlue#2 series to go with my Bunka. And it being a laser was a tough sell for me as well,I like a beefier blade. Buuut.....

I love this knife! It has a tremendous feel in the hand. Nice and light with a little bit of substance thanks to the handle and a touch of flex as well,which helps for the specific tasks it gets used for,skinning and portioning sides of fish. I measured the blade upon it’s arrival,although they escape me,the length was longer than 270 and the depth was shallower than I expected but still plenty of knuckle clearance. The OOTB edge was phenomenal,at only a week old I have no reason to run it through my stones,so I can’t comment on how long it takes to get AND hold it’s edge. But I’m sure that won’t be an issue for me. It handled root vegetables with no problem and minute sticking.

If you’re in the market for a 270 and want a sleeker blade than a true gyuto,I highly recommend this knife. Plus it will make all the Laser Geeks’ jaws hit the floor in awe.

After replacing all my knives I thought I was finished with mono steel knives. I needed a 270 for all my fish fabrication and rolled the dice with this model,to which I’m extremely glad the gamble paid off. I Love This Blade! It can handle a lot more than just proteins,I have quite a bit of root veg on my menu and it handles those with ease as well. If you’re in the market for a flatter profile gyuto,I would highly recommend this blade. You get a sense that the sleeker profile and weight of the metal comes off as being a little light,if you’re used to the heftier knives,such as myself but the ebony handle balances it out quite nicely. Which is what makes me really appreciate this knife immensely. After 6 weeks of extensive use the edge is holding up real nicely. Another surprise. I’m sure I’ll be putting my edge on it and running it through the stone progression once the Snow White arrives. I wish I had a good enough reason to get another one of these HD2s but now is not the time,maybe down the road I’ll make something up to get one more.

Razor blade! The ultimate "medium knive" (around 4-5.5" inch long). Light,ultrasharp,easy of sharp. I own also a Classic Shun Steak. Spend some dollars more and buy this one,the Premier!



The only thing - in my opinion - could be improve is to reduce the height around 0.4". But I do this myself,grinding it with a whetstone!



Even not talking about its beauty,this knive amaze! The price is a little bit high... But it is a lifelong aquisition...

Superb knive! Extremely thin,resistent! Razor Sharp,good grip. The handle is a little bit heavy (but I have a special predilection for light handle,because is better for fast slicing). It keeps sharps for a very long while! In my opinion,the ultimate utility knive!

Pros:

+ perfectly balanced and nimble

+ really cool blade profile

+ convex grind on edge makes for a very sharp and sturdy factory edge

+ very pretty

+ really easy to sharpen (as long as you’re ok with losing the convex grind or willing to learn some exotic sharpening techniques).



cons:

- there are harder steels out there,though this is still better than most German knives

- maintaining the convex edge will require going beyond regular whetstones (I’ve read about apparrati built with sand paper glued to a mouse pad...).

- need hands to be dry (more so than most knives) to avoid slipping on steel handle.

Great knife very sharp; light weight and nimble. I really like the fact that it’s really easy to sharpen and holds the edge a lot longer than its German counterparts in my kit. Would have given it a five star ratting but notice that the edge chips very easily so be careful. Other than that this blade is hard to beat cheers!

I have coined this knife,"A Mustang on an Escort budget"... I challenge anyone to find a better value.



The white steel gets wicked sharp,as expected. The profile is perfect for me; slight belly,with an adequate flat area. But the grind is where this thing shines,and to my surprise,I must admit. It has an excellent taper down the spine. It is a touch thick at the spine,but convexes towards the edge,where it is nicely thin... nothing will ever stick to this blade. It is a mini potato killing machine!!!



The price point erases any dislike for the uneven,heavy kirouchi finish or the faux kasumi edge...



Buy one; buy three; buy ten and give them as gifts....

Light,sharp,stylish and not very expensive compared to my steel knives. I’ll have to wait and see about their durability but so far i’m quite inpressed with the quaility.

great purchase and i would/will get more in future.

I have had this knife for nearly five years with no complaints. I have never sharpened it - as you can’t with a normal steel. I have used it probably five nights a week over this time and it is still sharp. Not razor sharp as it came but still sharp for safe,normal domestic use.



Plus sides are that it is light,very very good value and versatile - I’ve use mostly on veg but also occasional meat/fish prep as you do with a Santoku.



Downsides - can’t sharpen with out special ceramic blade sharpener and relatively uninspired designed.



Perfect function,long lasting and would highly recommend.

The honkenest block on the market. If your blade collection or the blades themselves are big,check this bad boy out.



It’ll hold multiple 12” (300mm) blades (sujihiki,slicers,yanagiba,etc) along with a 12” honing rod plus a bunch the other stuff,normal sized knives,shears,a cleaver…



Build quality is good for a production piece,just not as nice as a custom. At the price point it’s a very good value.



Be aware that it is huge. It takes up more space on the counter than other blocks. (But those aren’t going to hold 300mm sujihiki are they?)

Very sharp out of the box.Excellent blade geometry with a little taller blade than most pettys you find,which I found that I liked very much. Very comfortable handle and it is nicely balanced. I would rate this knife very close overall to my Denka No Hoto Fugiwara Terayasu,which means that I think this Nubatama petty is one great knife.

Posting a review for would me Xmas buyers. With the new picture it is easy to see the tip profile and after getting used to it it is not that bad. Actually works rather well for "draw" slicing food. As for everything else ... the fit and finish is definitely on the lower end. Handle needs to be sanded and blade had a large burr on the edge and not polished at all. If you are a knife nut then this will not bother you as it is an easy fix with some sandpaper and finer grit stones. The spine looks like it has been worked a little out of the box (fine for me) though some may wish a little more,again not a hard fix. Very thin profile and while the handle may be on the cheaper side the steel is nice. Single beveled on 90-10/85/15. If you do not polish it a first time an inexperienced user may think it is chipping after the first couple uses,again this (on mine) was a large burr left from the courser grind it comes with. I have been cooking professionally for about 10 years for whatever it is worth and I can recommend this knife for a budget buy. It will be a backup/loner in my bag and would make a nice knife for the first time user but be aware of my comments above if you have no knowledge of maintenance. If you do have knowledge and tools available to you and are looking for a budget knife for a friend who you want to try a Japanese knife then the work you have to do on this knife may be a positive instead of a negative as it can be a more personalized gift and what knife nut doesn’t like putting in a little work on their knife ... or friends knife :)

I just wanted to say that after some work on the stones and rounding of spine and choil this knife became one of my favorite knives. To this day I can’t tell you why it feels and cuts better than knives 3 times it’s cost,but it does. I purchased this knife years ago and while it’s a bit thinner than it was (from thinning and sharpening) it performs better and better it seems. I got rid of the cheaper handle and replaced it with a custom one and now I can’t keep it in my bag for work because my wife will be asking me where "her" knife went. I don’t know how the fit and finish are on these now,I’m guessing still a little rough compared to the better material and finish on the larger sizes if I had to guess looking at the prices,anyone may verify this with Mark. But even if this is the case even at a little bit more now then when I bought it,it’s literally a thief’s bargain if you want a knife to put some love into and that’ll give some love back

James fixed an addict 1 for me that was pretty much like cutting with a thick butter knife. Once I got it back it was exceptionally sharp. He can really take a knife such as the addict 1 that has a less than desirable profile and turn it into an excellent knife. Not a knock on Mark as he has updated the design since the first gen to fix those problems.

After being satisfied with my Global G2 chef knife,I thought this would be a good addition for vegetables,as it is listed as a vegetable knife. However,the blade is a bit short in order to be an alternative to a nakiri.



The knife comes sharper than any German knife right out of the box. Although I didn’t find it to be great for veggie slicing,my girlfriend likes it and I think its a good utility knife.



I’ve never had a problem with the stainless steel handles,yet they are not for everyone. The triangular shape of this handle is very comfortable to me.

I don’t have the exact custom handle in the picture since another customer had already bought it,but Mark had his woodworker Isaiah make an almost exact replica from the same block of maple burl. Being a custom handle junkie myself,I must say that Isaiah’s work is right up there with the better custom handles in my collection,with top-notch fit & finish. Great service from CKTG,with ~1 week turnaround time on the custom handle.

I bought this knife & a custom handle ZDP189 Konosuke. The advantage of this blade is that it hold & achieves a great edge & unlike the white steel it doesn’t rust (less care). While the ZDP189 has the better edge this knife is amazingly close at HALF the price ($$$). One thing to know is that the Konosuke White#2,HD & ZDP189 are all thin and extremely light,while the Fujiyama is a much thicker,heavier blade - Your choice,as all are great blades. Isaiah makes excellent handles - you will be very satisfied!!!

I purchased the Wa-Gyuto in part because it is not a staple of Takeda and to compare it with the Gyuto. As all Tekada knives the Wa-Gyuto is razor-sharp and well balanced. The spine is a bit thicker than the standard Takeda Gyuto. Due to its edge and balance it is a pleasure to use the Wa-Gyuto to prepare large quantities of vegetables.

I bought this GS-1 a good while back. At the time,it was the only paring knife I could find in the Global line. I have a pretty extensive collection of Globals,but this knife stinks AS a paring knife. When you try to pare with this knife,the blade is at a very awkward angle to your thumb,making paring difficult. This knife works ok as a ’mini’ chef’s knife,which is all I use it for now. Much better for paring would be GSF-46 or GSF-49.

You can not buy a better knife for this price Period! I personally prefer the hand forged white steel,but they are heavier & need more care. This HD knife is almost carefree,doesn’t rust,is amazingly thin,gets & holds a great edge and has an almost custom handle all for under $250 + FREE SHIPPING with CKTG!!!

I’m more of a Japanese-style handle person,however,this handle was to remarkable to pass up (for me). I love the multi-toned burl wood. Nice blade too,but the Adam Marr handle sold me. Better looking in person than photo shows & perfect fit for my hand - just the right thickness (not to large or to small,very comfortable feel/fit.

this is very well built knife. the fit & finish are perfect. the western handle & blade proportion & balance is excellent & extremely light even for its length. i bought this knife for a humid tropical semi-commercial kitchen environment. i wanted a handle that would never rot or need special attention & pakka wood is an excellent handle choice. i also wanted a versatile blade suitable for slicing which is rust resistant & has the characteristics of a carbon blade that will hold an edge & sharpen up with minimal effort. this knife fits the bill. the blade height at the heel is not over sized like some gyutos or chef knives which can make them less useful for slicing.



this knife is a great choice if you are looking for a solid knife with great performance & low maintenance.

I have a wide selection of well sharpened Henckels and Wusthoffs that I’ve used for years. I also have an unbranded yanagi (hi carbon) that I’ve used for sushi for years. But,the Masamoto CT Carbon 210 was my first foray into using a gyuto for everyday kitchen work.



Right out of the box,very sharp. I always sharpen new knives,but this one only required some light work with an 8000 waterstone and strop and it was ready to go.



This is a superb knife,and the description on CKTG.com was absolutely accurate.



If you do not have experience with hi-carbon knives - I would probably recommend something with a bit more stainless in it. But if you are ready for the challenge of caring for a hi-carbon knife - you’ll be rewarded with a superior edge.



Service and shipping excellent as well.



Thanks for a great online shopping experience and I’ll be back soon...

This is a very nice Honing Leather on the grain (smooth) side. I would be very hessitant using rough side for fine honing of knives,even when loaded with liquid grit,because it is,as the name suggests,rough. But,smooth side is great for final stage of your sharpening progression or for regular touch-up honing. You can also load the smooth side with powder grit,preferably 1 or 0.5 micron,depending on your edge type. Highly recommended.

Hands down the best stainless cutter on the planet right now. The combination of its geometry and construction materials makes this knife the standard which other knives are compared. Fit and finish are beautiful,and it holds a razor’s edge despite heavy use in a professional kitchen. Slightly more difficult to sharpen than the VG-10 steel,but far superior in edge retention and overall sharpness attained.

Went from a Global to this. Love the knife. First time I used it I could feel it cutting into my cutting board,something I hadn’t felt before. Very durable edge,incredibly sharp but more importantly well balanced and comfortable.

A good performer and a beautiful-looking bread knife,the Calphalon Katana bread knife was a nice addition to my collection. However,a more economical Forschner,while not as pretty,performed better for me and felt more comfortable in the hand. You won’t go wrong with the Katana bread knife,but you might be able to do better.

I called and emailed Mark with a few questions about some of the knives he carries. He thought that I would be happy with the Fowler petty. Problem is that they sell out really quick. I called Stephan Fowler and worked out a custom petty with an ironwood handle. Mark set up the invoice and walked me through sharpening stones etc. The knife took longer than Stephan had predicted because when he was making my blade (as well as others) he was not happy with the batch of steel he had procured. All those man-hours and he scrapped them due to personal standards. That is what "Made in the USA" is supposed to mean. Now I know why they sell out so quickly. The knife is amazing!!

I have come to have deep respect for the craftsman at Konosuke. This blade does not disappoint. Ever since Chefknivestogo started carrying the 270 Kiritsuke I have wanted one and now I have it! The blade is superb! It both cuts and sharpens like butter. The edge it takes can only be described as extreme. It holds it very nicely to spite what it says in the dis riptide of the white #1 steel. I used the custom handle option and was Not disappointed in the least. I will say,on that note,that the fit and finish on the handle was second to none. All around very Very high marks for this blade.

Despite the mislabeling,this is very nice,robust knife. Despite having lighter and more expensive knives available,I’m enjoy using this Artifex. TBH,it’s not the favorite (a Moritaka Gyuto) in my knife block,it’s less work to maintain and I like using it.



While a bit heavy (around 250g IIRC) compared to my other chef knives in this size,not as heavy as $22 SlitBar from Ikea (300+g) and still has a good balance between blade and handle. The Artifex Knife (Aebl steel,IIRC) takes a very nice edge and seems to be holding up perfectly to my occasional use.

I’ve been using this knife daily for 2 years or more. It remains sharp and totally wonderful. Works for slicing bread,slicing a dense winter squash,and almost anything else you can think of. It is,simply,the most used knife in our kitchen.

Excellent knife,it’s super sharp and lightweight. The finish on it is very nice and clean,haven’t had any problems with it so far and honing the knife makes it even sharper. I wouldn’t recommend using this knife for cutting hard items,it can loose it’s sharpness easily.

I recently purchased the Tadatsuna White Steel Wa-santoku 170mm from Chef Knives To Go. I have basically just tested for sharpness--my wife was amazed at how easily it cut wafer-thin potato slices. It comes very sharp and after several passes on a leather strop it could pass the "push cut" test with newspaper. Good service from CKTG.

This knife has no business being this good. I bought this solely on desire after seeing the picture on Facebook and didn’t really know what to expect. What I got was a super thin knife a nicely rounded spine,a beautiful damascus pattern and an excellent steel. It was very easy to sharpen and the edge is razor sharp. I can’t comment yet on how well it will hold up,but as a home cook I may never know. A great deal - even if it does have a plastic ferrule. Maybe because it has plastic ferrule.

Very nice knife with perfect finish,I am surprised how light it is.

Sharp right out of the box,no sharpening needed at this point.

Thanks for quick delivery - I would love to see more international shipping options though....

You know you have a winner when you hold one in your hand. After reading so much about it,I finally got a Masamoto HC,and it really lives up to what was claimed. Excellent fit and finish,weight,balance,takes a screaming edge at sharpening. I can get through the day’s tasks with no worries. It will be one of your best investments in cutlery.

The blade has a very sharp edge out of the box and was made terrifically sharp by my knife sharpening service. It develops patina almost instantly after use so one must be diligent to prevent rust. The 70/30 bevel works wonders on delicate fish flesh. (Be careful of your fingers!) Although it doesn’t do a great job at removing the skin from the flesh,so I have to use my Global 12 inch slicer for that. Weight and balance is perfect. The yo-style handle is just a tad thin for my hand,but it hasn’t hindered me from preparing food in my kitchen at home. A full time chef with bigger hands might want to re-handle it or perhaps buy a wa-style knife. This knife as become my go to knife at home,but has almost made me realize that I probably need an expensive,high quality mirror polished stainless gyuto so that I don’t have attend to the knife’s maintenance while I’m in the middle of trying to prepare a complex meal.

I work on the line and appreciate this knife for its unique handle. The handle is comfortable,holds a better grip than any other in my experience and the knuckle out at the bottom of the blade really lets you get good leverage when trying to get the best yield from your protein as possible.



However,this knife doesn’t hold the edge nearly as long as I would have liked. I am sharpening it after every one or two uses because it will stop pulling through a chicken breast easily.. still ergonomically a good knife and sharp when you do it yourself,often. Recommend for home use,not professional.

Love It! Was looking for an Usuba and asked Mark for a recommendation and for the second time he did not steer me wrong. Fit and finish are quite impressive and the blade takes a very sharp edge and holds it well. Great Craftsmanship from Konosuke.

To date,this is the best paring knife I have found. I would have preferred to get one from the GSF series as they are drop-forged,but the GSF paring knife simply is not as ergonomic. The 3.5 inch blade is nicely suited to people who prefer to use one paring knife and one large general kitchen knife for virtually everything (such as myself)...it’s big enough to do larger slicing and coring,and small enough to use as a precision cutter. The steel that is used is pretty good...it holds an edge reasonably well,resists edge deformation,and is reasonably stain resistant. For the money,it’s a good buy and a solid product...while there may be better paring knives available,you won’t find a better model anywhere near this price-point,so I highly encourage checking it out!

Needed some sharpening on receipt. Thin,short blade makes it excellent for delicate,small work. You’ed need a larger knife to quarter an apple but it is very well suited to removing the seeds and remnants of peel.

This is a nice,sturdy,dependable,"get the job done" kind of knife. It’s not as thin as some Japanese knives,nor as easy to sharpen as a carbon steel blade,but it’s very well-finished and holds an edge for a long time. It’s stainless,as well,which means you don’t have to fuss over it too much. I wish I’d gotten the 240mm,but otherwise,it’s the knife I’d choose if I could only use one.

I have had this knife for over a year now and it has been my workhorse knife the entire time. The wight is great on it. My only complaint is that I cannot seem to get it as sharp as my other knives for the life of me. The edge that i am able to get on it does hold for a while though. Great knife,but compared to masamoto I cannot get an edge on it...maybe it’s just me.

Sorry for my bad english. I have a knife just like this made for me. The knife arive to me with messanger at my door. It was packaged very nice. It come in a real pretty bag from cloth. i work with this knife in kitchen all day. I am a professional chef. the knife came very sharp and the edge last for me a long time making sea food. the steel very hard for this knife. The handle and the wood cover is beautiful but also very strong. I think this become my favorite knife.

I’m a Konosuke fanatic,but I’ve never been a huge fan of Wa handles. When these became available,I switched over to the western handles and couldn’t be happier.



All of my other Konosukes are HD steel,but I took a gamble (on Mark’s recommendation) to try the swedish stainless. I couldn’t be happier! It looks,feels,cuts and sharpens just like my AEB-L Devin Thomas knives,but is obviously wildly thinner.



The spine and choil on the western handled knives are not as rounded as the Wa handled units,but they are just as thin at the edge.



The handle is extremely neat and well fitted,with no filled in gaps or uneven radiuses. The fitment and quality is way better than all of my wa Konosukes,which are sloppier.



It’s a keeper,for sure. And it won’t be the only one!

Referring to the famous phrase "Go West,Young Man",I say "Buy one of Mr. Doi’s Yanagis,My Friend". Mr. Doi’s knives are exceptional; they are the sharpest and smoothest edges I have ever experienced.

This block is unique and looks amazing sitting on the counter top(much better looking in person that in the picture). I’ve seen others use this just as displayed on the box,and I would have given it 5 starts if this was the case,but my knives did not fit properly so it didn’t work out for me.



I would recommend to anyone to try who has 10 knives or less,because if it works for you then you will be happy with it.

I’ve seen these locally for much more than I paid here - a handy little board ideal for small jobs,and considering that bamboo has anti-bacterial properties and won’t dull fine knives like the plastic or glass boards,it’s an extra bonus to have around.

The Kangaroo strops are worth every penny. They are a high quality stropping substrate. The stiction produced when used with the edge pro produces a heavy burnishing effect in conjunction with the effect of the stropping compound you are using. The 2x6 size provides a larger working area allowing you to accomplish more per stroke.



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.



I use mine with CBN,these make a great finishing step for all knives.

When these were first introduced,I loved them. I have a very methodical and manipulative style,which is suited best with light weight thin blades. It seemed like a perfect fit! Its main fallback is its inability to be honed. After two years it was dull,and I had to send it away,at a $10 each way shipping cost,plus it took a month to get it back. Again,only 6 months later,I feel its dull. Kyocera needs to market a self sharpening system that doesn’t break the bank.

This was a long anticipated acquisition; but worth the long wait.

The OOTB sharpness of the edge was incredible! I only hope my modest skills can recapture the same level of sharpness when that time comes.

As usual,CKTG comes through with great service,which is great considering where else could I buy this knife?

Unfortunately,I purchased this knife before Mark was able to obtain them ( I like to support local/ family businesses),but I thought I’d offer up a review of the product to sway others to make the purchase.



These are the real deal. I have held both the Shun version,as well as a real Kramer. The Shun is literally a Shun Kaji blade with a Kramer’esque handle. The Zwilling has a perfect taper,great steel,nice grind,superb fit and finish. It really is comparable to the real deal hand made Kramers that go for 10x the price,literally.



As far as parers go,this is by far the most comfortable parer I have ever held. The handle works well in this size,and is completely smooth,no edges anywhere.



IMO,these Kramers are a must have for all knife nuts....

I was hesitant about buying 1 of these because of the price which is pretty high but when 1 came up in the close out section,I jumped at the chance.



The OTB edge is by far and away the best ive ever had. Since receiving the knife,it has received pretty much daily use. It is as sharp as it was when I got it!!! I have not sharpened it,simply the occasional strop!



The profile is outstanding and it lasers through everything. You can actually feel the smoothness of of the cut when you eat carrots for example! Pretty insane!



I had read mixed comments on the ginsan steel but I couldn’t be happier.



The fit and finish is impeccable,the knife is very beautiful,it’s stainless so very little care needed AND the edge just seems to go on forever!



I own various knives of different steels,White 2,Aogami Super,VG10,etc. This has quickly become one of my favourite knives,it is perfect for its purpose. I cannot imagine a "better" nakiri at any price level!



Extremely happy with this purchase and as always,thanks to CKTG for quick,easy service all the way to France.



PS. I’ve had the knife for 3/4 months

Works well for what it is. A drawback is whatever you’re slicing tends to want to flip end over end when you get 1/2 way through the cut & onto the other side of the blade. Whether this is due to a smaller blade or low RPM I can’t say.

The aogami(blue)super steel takes a great edge,is easy to re-sharpen & hold the edge good; same steel Takeda uses. The handle Isaiah made is an awesome looker,just STUNNING! It is some smaller in width than most japanese handles but I personal like this. Really a sujihiki/gyuto like Takeda’s (very similar). Evryday workhorse knife.

Got this one a few weeks back. I have learned to expect the best from Konosuke and this one did not disappoint in the slightest. The blade is nice and thin,has a some flex to without being noodley. IT is very sharp and holds its edge well and is easy to sharpen. I recommend getting the optional Saya with this knife. They are a good deal and fit well.

Why are so many "ergonomically designed" tools so awkward to work with? As far as I am concerned this knife is one such tool. It may be striking to look at but mine has been sitting in the knife block unused for over a year. Some of the other Shun knives are favorites in my kitchen. Maybe our preference for straight handles means that they are truly ergonomic.

I love love love the Ken Onion handle of this knife. I have had this specific knife for the past year and I was cooking almost every single day. The first day I handled it I fell in love with it. I went knife shopping with a friend the other day,held the Shun Classic and others and couldn’t stand them at all. They reminded me how great my Ken Onion is. However,the comfort level highly depends on how you usually hold you knife. What works for me may not work for you.

I have a collector’s hunting knife that I scratched somewhat when I used to sharpen by hand. I decided to try these and they were worthless. I addition,there is a horrible chemical smell,perhaps formaldahyde that has wrecked my sinuses. Even after double bagging in a zip-lock bag,it still stinks up the house. I expect I’ll throw them away as an experiment that didn’t work.

Well,was on the hunt for a natural 400 grit stone and after a chat with Mark,decided on the Ohmura. Really good solid 400ish grit stone. Cuts a tad slower than a man made but the stone is able to get a more refined edge. Kind of sandy once you get a mud worked up and doesn’t dish to bad and not bad either on water consumption. And the usual great service from Mark.

After looking at every gyuto on this site and others for weeks I settled on this knife for my primary home prep knife. It arrived in short order from CKTG as expected. This is not a fancy knife,but it is thin,light,nimble,sharp,and a functional work of art. As advertised the fit and finish of the handle to the bolster,to the tang,and even to the says,is great. No ridges,gaps,or epoxy to be seen or felt. The blade is nicely finished and tapered and the edges are all carefully rounded. My knife arrived with blonde horn bolster and the blade neck (machi) set all the way back to the handle (no gap as pictured).



So after using it for over two months I finally sharpened it for the first time yesterday. It sharpened easily and took a great edge using only three stones (800 - 2000 - 5000). I have often been skeptical of all the 5 star ratings on this site,but this has been a perfect knife for me. Sure,it is carbon steel and will stain even if you are careful with it,but thats what I wanted. I love the way the hardened irregular edge has taken a dark patina,and the rest of the blade has taken a lighter mottled rainbow color.



The only drawback to this knife is when,in a year or so,I treat myself to another new knife,I don’t know if I can look out of the Fujiyama line or not. I had wanted to try a different maker,steel,etc. Oh well.

This bag is well made. Fit and finish is quite nice. Very stylish. Lots of room and storage options. The shoulder strap is a bit cheap,though.



An interesting design is the pockets are designed to hold the blade without edgeguards. This proved to be less than ideal when my shun started cutting threads on the way out... AND i shaved some skin off my finger reaching for it because the blade was exposed on the knife next to it. So USE EDGEGUARDS!!



Another flaw is these pockets don’t work with all blades... my Cleaver for example. That said I was able to fit everything i needed... include a wide chef’s with edgeguard. I’m not sure if a saya would fit,as the pockets are NOT elastic.



I remedied the lack of cleaver space by cutting through the rest of that pocket and the space for two knives became one for a cleaver. Note that they provide you with a very large spot for a steel... and it would not work well for most knives,yet they did not think to include a cleaver spot.



Anyways,I have my chef’s coat,side towels,apron,and neckerchief,pens,sharpies,thermometer,measuring cups,bench scraper,whisk,etc. stuffed in there along with all the knives I need,so its not bad. It could be better... especially for the money.



The Messermeister Attache Case is cheaper and holds even more stuff... so I would recommend that. That would get a 5 star.

Beautiful knife,lightweight and razor sharp out of the box. Took a little longer to patina then my Takeda. Had a blast goin’ through some onions to break it in. Glad to have added a Moritaka to my kit.

May 2013. Well,I’ve only owned this knife (the Henckels Four Star II 6" Utility Knife) for a month,so I can’t really give a proper review (my main concern for any piece of equipment is long-term reliability),but CK2G owner Mark Richmond sent me an email asking me to review it,so here we go.



I’m giving this product four stars because it works great,but feels kind of cheap. Cheaper than it should feel for $100.



I bought this knife to use on things like peppers and other small vegetables where my usual 8" workhorse chef’s knife is too big. My two other main knives are a Wusthof Classic Ikon 8" chef’s knife and 4-1/2" paring knife; I really like that line’s build quality and look and feel. I considered getting the Wusthof Classic Ikon 6" Utility Knife (model 4506/16,also $100 on most online stores),but the blade seemed too small (as in,the dimension from the sharp edge to the spine). It looked more like a paring knife than a utility knife. This Henckels utility knife had the perfect dimensions.



My main problem with this Henckels utility knife is that it doesn’t have a full tang with a triple-rivet handle like most good knives. Instead it has a little rat-tail tang inside a polypropylene handle. And I’m worried that in five or ten years,that handle is going to fall off,and the knife will be garbage,even if the blade is still fine. It’s also a lot lighter than my Wusthof knives,which also makes it feel cheap. But maybe the weight is a good thing; you can be more nimble with it when cutting small vegetables.



Anyway,the blade is nice and sharp,and the handle is comfortable. Balance is good,although as I said,if you’re used to Wusthof knives,this one will feel oddly light in the hand. So far I haven’t sharpened it,I’ve just been using my F. Dick polished steel to maintain the factory edge.



It would be interesting to get a review from somebody who has had this knife for several years,to comment on how well this product holds up over the long term!

Super Gyuto! Perfect for the German Chef Knife Used looking to try Japanese steel. It’s not super hard like many Japanese knives,so chipping isn’t an issue. Has a heavier more substantial feel in hand than many super-thin gyutos. Handle is beautiful with great fit and finish. The cullens actually work,unlike on many granton knives. Edge retention is not on par with say a Blazen.. But holds an edge 3-4 times longer than ’ze Germans. Large Handle is good for pinch grip or those with large hands.

This is my favorite gyuto (so far) and I have a few really good one. The Takeda has the best combination of best sharpness,best edge retention,ease of sharpening,lightness,balance,rustic good looks,and blade geometry. It doesn’t necessarily score the highest on each separate category,but OVERALL it is to me the best performer.



The blade has a very acute angle. From the factory,there is no second bevel. The primary bevel is a sweeping and very noticeable convex grind measuring just over 1/4" wide. Where the primary bevel ends,the blade is about 1/16" thick. Beyond the primary bevel,the blade remains a constant 1/16" for another 1.5" and beyond that it broadens to about 1/8" at the spine. It’s kind of complicated geometry,but it works perfectly. The convex grind of the 1/4" primary bevel works quite well to keep food from sticking.



The edge holds for a very long time,but it does have a slight tendency to microchip due to the extremely acute bevel.



Sharpening is very easy. It produces a wire edge almost without effort.



It has to be sharpened by stone only. When I foolishly tried to use an F. Dick Titan honing rod,it created a wire edge very quickly,but the edge was also very chippy. I had to use a stone to remove the numerous microchips.



My 240mm Takeda gyuto is my favorite chef’s knife. I will be getting a 210mm of this also next year and I will put a custom handle on it like I did on the 240mm version.

It is hard for me to do this review. The knife was purchased for my daughter who is dominant left handed. She hasn’t had a left handed knife in years and frequently cut herself. When I last talked to her,she was very pleased with the knife.

I have watched both of Murray Carter’s Instructional DVDs. In the first DVD I felt there was 30 minutes of useful information out of a 4 hour presentation. I did not like how he used junk cutlery (that if you cared about a sharp knife you would not use) to demonstrate how to sharpen. There is definitely some good information in the demonstration it is however sporadic. If you are a first time knife sharpener it would be a good place to learn (there are 2 other videos I think are better). I watched it hoping I could get some additional technique from the demo and I did. If you have a basic understanding of Japanese knife sharpening I would skip the Intro video and go straight to the advanced video. In the advanced video Murray recaps his basic technique that he explains in the first video but manages to do it in 10 minutes instead of four hours! There is some good advanced technique taught in the video and he is much more organized in delivering the information. There is a 15 minute scene of him shaving with a knife that could have been edited shorter but he was trying to make a point. I would give the first video 2 stars and the second video 4 stars so the average for the pair is 3 stars.

Murray does a great job explaining his sharpening process and the philosophy behind it.



The first dvd is long winded but contains valuable information for the beginner. Perhaps a few small hints in there for the experienced as well.



second dvd is way more advanced and gets into repair and other useful topics as well as their philosophy. Also the instruction is shorter and to the point.



I take off so many stars because,who ever Murrays production company was or is he needs to re-release these dvds as they are not cross platform compatible. If you try to use it in anything apple it rejects it. Sony and JVC dvd players struggle with the disc as well. Windows machines seem to play the dvd ok.

I dont expect Hollywood dvds but the ability to play the movie is very important.

I feel for the price i should be able to play them on the platform of my choice.

I quite enjoyed the beginner dvd. It was quite informative. I especially like how he makes it quite clear that it’s about the technique not the tools. The second was a lot of him shaving. I did enjoy the sequence he went through to sharpen the knife though.

Pros: Nice wide blade,stays sharp.

Cons: I was 3 sweet potatoes into a case and the blade "holder" snapped (the entire peeler is made of plastic and is rather flimsy). Kyocera did replace it for me,so that’s a plus. Not sturdy enough for heavy usage or tough jobs. I rarely use this peeler anymore.



Kyocera’s Ceramic Everything peeler is better. For tough jobs just grab a generic supermarket all metal peeler or a knife.

This is an excellent ceramic honing rod - I have owned the same unit for over ten years,and it is still going strong. It works well on both Japanese and Western knives,and I have used it on a large range of modern and traditional steel alloys and edge types with consistently good results.

I would describe the grit as fine,but not super-fine. The build-quality is first-class,and if you drop and break a rod,you can readily source a Global replacement which refits easily into the handle (I’ve done this once).

The most appealing feature to me is the "feel" of this device - you really feel the hone working on the edge,which makes the job fast and fun.

The only reason I’ve deducted a star is the price,but I guess you get what you pay for.

This is a nice loupe that does the job. I have a 10x loupe without light,and it does not work well on knives. Illumunation in a loupe is DEFINITELY a must to examine knives’ edges. I gave 4 stars,becuase it is my first illunated loupe,I don’t know any better for comparison. But,it does the job,and at that price,it is a very good buy.

Examine the edge,notice rough spots... and concentrate on those areas. Repeat as needed - as simple as that.



Bargain price for how much it’ll improve your ability to develop a better,sharper edge.

this is a great product. It has a lot of uses other than for sharpening. I also use it for things like seeing slivers to remove them,inspecting 0-rings for cracks,as well as looking at knife edges. This has been the best tool I have to provide feedback so that I can improve my sharpening ability.

I like this loupe for judging knife edges better than my 20x Belomo (which has better optics but really lacks built in illumination making it very hard to use on edges). But I like it less than the 60x Mini microscope that Mark sold me. My main concern with the 20x loupe is a very bright LED that leaves me partially blinded after use.

This was recommended by Mark/forum and it works well and feels sturdy. However,20x is just enough magnification to let you see your edge,I would strongly recommend getting a higher magnification. You can see big picture problems and grind differences but definitely not subtleties.

Nice to see the continuity of the burr up close when wet hands can sometimes deceive us. Helps me minimize the size of the burr created therein extending the life of the knife’s material. Helpful and interesting but obviously not necessary.

Man,if I could give this product 10 stars I would! No lie,I have 15 of them. Mine were purchased from Amazon years before Mark got them but I’m so glad he did! Now I have another source of them.



I literally don’t know how I’d sharpen without this scope. The true magnification is probably 30-ish; is seems like manufacturers of cheap scopes like t his just pull a number out of the air. But the optics are astonishingly clear,especially for the price. The real killer aspect of this is the LED light shining right where you need the it. Brilliant! You can easily see a burr and gauge the amount of polish you have. Do you use the "Sharpie trick"? This will allow you to see where you’re hitting with a level of precision that will increase your diagnostic power exponentially.



The downsides? It’s kinda cheap feeling. I’d gladly pay $50 for an identical version built like a SureFire or Streamlight.



As an FYI,I also keep one of these in my work knife case and at least one in every first aid kit. They’re amazing for digging out spinters or seeing debris in someones’ eye.



Seriously,if you don’t have one of these,YOU NEED ONE! This will revolutionize the way you think about your edges.

For judging edges I like the 60x Mini Microscope (which Mark sold me and might be the same as the 45x) more than my 20x Belomo or my 20x illuminated loupe. Tiny,easy to use,lights not too bright,good field of view.

Pretty good solution for the stone width issue w/ EP. Will say might be more useful on EP pro than Apex,as the most acute sharpening angle you can achieve with thick stones like Shapton when using the stop collar is 13.6º

I have been using the EdgePro system for three years. This collar substantially improves results as even a new set of stones will have slight thickness variances. Reduces time needed at each grit level. Highly recommend.

Take the stone off of your edge pro and rest the bar on the guide. Now mount a stone and rest it on the guide again. See the angle change? The same thing happens to a lesser degree when you use stones that have different thicknesses. And,naturally,they all *are* different. The drill stop collar lets you compensate for the different thickness of the stones in the blink of an eye. There are several videos on YouTube showing how to set it up. I think this item is a must buy for anyone with an Edge Pro,especially when you are using the finer stones. It takes you from being close to right to perfect every time.

Must have,should be standard for every EP.

This is the only way to get perfect edges time after time.

Even when your stones are all about as thick,over time some stones will wear faster than others.

With this thingy you will have no problem with that.

    This set as many people before me has qouted,does really take your sharpening experience to the very next level,that is ofc if you are a person who demands the very best possible sharpness and cutting performance.

    This kit will take you a very long way,the base is solid and hold everything steady,the wood stropp is so nice and smoth and with the dimond spray that comes with it,just a few first stroke and you can tell straight away that your edge is now already something you have not touch or tase before.

    To finish of with the kits horse but strop,is just such a great product to work with,just with a few last smooth stroke your knife will end up in a condition that only deserve big stand up and take a bow.



    one thing I can advise to anyone who is thinking to buy this set is a few following details that is good to know.



    Yes for "GOD" sake buy this kit if you wanna take it to a new level and yes the price is so much value,after using it I could easy pay twice if I had to.



    when you use your Horse Strop,please what ever you do,do not just force your blade down on to it.



    Place it down nice a controled,otherwise like we all do in the start,even myself cut small marks on the leather,just cause the blade is so dam sharp,you really have to place it down nice and slow and then manke a light but yet firm stroke.

    Last thing what I love about this kit is that when you are using the strops and start stroping,the aroma / smell from the wood and leather is just unbelivible,that smell really is something beautifull to have around you when you sharpen your knifes. Great Product and Great Value for your money. and Tanks to Mark and his wife for exelent service ! Big TIme.

    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 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 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.

    This is a first class knife! I spent a long time researching different chef knives and i wanted a good workhorse knife,and I found it. Being stainless clad makes it easy to keep clean without worrying about stains. It gets sharp,stays sharp,and responds well to a steel.

    I highly recommend this knife and CKTG!



    Happy cooking!

    Excellent service by cktg,

    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

    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.

    I was looking for a blue #2 steel nakiri clad in stainless steel with a little heft. This is the knife. It wasn’t razor sharp OOTB. I gave it a 320,1200,8000 nagura stoning,polished with strop and the basics. It now pops hair off my arm. Take care of this baby. The edge can be fragile,pending on the angle and bevel you choose. I went to about 10 degrees each side with a nice visible edge. It’s the fine blue steel edge you must care for. The grinds are close to 50/50,just a tad more ground on the left side of the knife,but ground very sweetly. It is an extremely well made knife. Very fine craftsmanship on this puppy. The maker of this knife truly knows what they are doing. A true gem from the orient. An awesome knife and definitely a keeper! Thank You CKTG

    The beautiful 120mm petty is a perfect blade for many tasks, including the processing of smaller ingredients, filleting, and making garnishes.

A traditional oval handle made from rosewood and ebony completes the package.

    This is an excellent Santoku. The balance is perfect for a pinch grip,the handle is comfortable and the aesthetics are spot on. Blade performance is superb,every bit as sharp as Aogami blue super,but no where near as tedious to sharpen. An excellent knife at an excellent price.

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.

Shirogami #2 is also known as White #2 steel. It is quite similar to 1095 and White #1 steel but with extra carbon. This gives the blade a higher wear resistance than the other two alloys, coupled with good edge stability. It is carbon steel and thus needs care with cleaning and drying between uses. The cladding is left with a blacksmith, or kurouchi, finish. This protects the outer layer somewhat but does not alleviate the need for careful drying of this reactive blade.

    180mm is the entry length of most gyutos. The shorter and lighter size of this gyuto gives it a quality that feels fast and nimble. The blade is easy to sharpen to a razor-like edge and is coupled to a nicely finished oval rosewood hand with black pakka wood ferrule.

Katsushige Anryu is the fourth generation of this esteemed family of blacksmiths. He has just recently turned over the business to his long time apprentice Ikeda san while still working the hammer daily.

    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.

    I don’t navigate well through computer land. So I couldn’t find a way to leave a description of my brief experience with the afore mentioned knife. Didn’t find the thingee to click on. So to explain what I did,cleaned off the dark grey coating,Bad move? Honed the hell out of it with a porcelain rod and cut up a crop of vegetables. Couldn’t be happier with the knife.Can’t imagine anyone wanting better. If you’re in touch with the fellow that made it,please tell him he has my respect. I think the knife looks much better without the charcoal coating. I polish it down after use,apply a bit of walnut or cocoanut oil and put it away in a slotted drawer. Need to make a good wooden sleeve for it. Sincerely,Bruce

He uses Hitachi White Paper #2 as the core steel for this great-looking and performing bunka. He hand-forges the blade in the san-mai style using a multi-layer soft iron cladding. The outer layer is left with that great-looking kurouchi, or blacksmith’s, finish. This then transforms into the underlying damascus pattern, resulting in a blade of unmatched aesthetic quality. As both inner and outer layer are high carbon, they will rust if not cared for, so please clean and dry this knife during and after use.

    The ko bunka is a very versatile blade that is becoming more popular with both professional and home chefs. It is shorter in length than a gyuto which, combined with its tall blade height, creates a knife with very broad uses and appeal. This is a shorter version of a regular bunka and is favored especially by people who like push cutting and chopping techniques. The short length makes it very useful for in-hand work and processing smaller ingredients and proteins.

    The fit and finish are up to the usual standards of the brand. The aesthetic appeal is enhanced with some lovely chiseled kanji elements and coupled to the finely crafted rosewood oval handle with black pakka wood ferrule. No doubt the beautiful reverse tanto profile also adds to this compelling aesthetic appeal.

    I had a cheap Nakiri before I got this one. I loved it’s shape so much I just had to improve it. This is the upgrade I purchased and I couldn’t be happier. It’s razor sharp,and holds it’s edge. Holds up to the demands of a commercial kitchen.

    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.

    Great stone.



    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.

    The Arashiyama takes a moderate amount of time to soak. It cuts very quickly for how high the polish is that it leaves. It tends to stick to the DMT XXC pretty badly when flattening. Great stone overall.

    This is a quality stone. Hard and durable,the best feature about the Arayashima is the fact that it’s splash and go,and cuts fast and clean for a 6000grit.



    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.

    Agree that soaking gets a better result then splash and go.



    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

    This stone is fantastic. The feel and hardness are Awesome. It works up a nice mud and the finish can go from 6000 to 8000 depending on pressure and how much you work the mud. This and my Kitayama are,by far,my favorite stones.

    Great stone for woodworking too.

    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.

The Atoma diamond sharpening plates are a compelling answer to a number of those problems. The Atoma 140 diamond plate is made of diamond abrasive embedded in a metal pad in a dot matrix pattern which is mounted to an aluminum base. The 140 grit Atoma plate may be used as a coarse grit sharpening stone. When used on blades, the Atoma 140 removes steel aggressively to affect repairs quickly. The 140 is perhaps most often used as a flattening plate to repair and maintain dished water stones. Because of the coarseness of the abrasive and the hardness of the diamond it will abrade most any stone on the market and do so quickly. While there are other diamond abrasive plates on the market, the Atoma is noted for being extremely long lasting and thanks to the space between the diamond abrasive dots, the Atoma plates are not prone to suctioning themselves to stones the way many diamond plates will. The Atoma 140 grit plate can be renewed with an available 140 grit replacement pad which adds to the value of these plates. Measures 210mm x 75mm.

    I was fortunate enough to pick up thirteen new natural stones. Naturals never come flat. I had a lot of work ahead of me to flatten the stones to usable condition. This plate is coarse,flat and made quick (relatively speaking) work of flatening my naturals. I ended up getting a DMT 220 use after the 140 to get a finer finish but it was putting a very slight groove along the face of the stone so I don’t even bother now. After the Atoma 140,I use a nagura to condition the surface and go straight to sharpening. Highly recommended for natural stones or badly dished artificials.

    Main advantage is that it does not dish. Probably a bit faster than the EP 120 stone.



    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 idea behind balsa wood as a strop medium is that a balsa surface is soft but rigid. When you apply compound you are creating a custom honing surface. The compound particles embed and stay in place while you are working, and it’s easy to sand the surface clean and flat when the compound is spent. This provides a cheap and easy way to experiment with a variety of different honing compounds that you can mix and match with low cost and good results.

    I read a lot about the quality of Hand American (HA) products on Bladeforums. I’m so glad I tried them out. I applied 1 micron HA Diamond Spray to the Balsa Magnetic Pads for stropping and was wonderfully surprised with the results. It has clearly taken my stropping and edge refinement to the next level. Perhaps the ultimate level!

    I use a 10k stone followed by balsa wood with .5micron ken schwartz boron nitride,and balsa with .1 micron ks boron. The edge on both white and blue steel comes up to a 2 inch pinch distance paper edge cut with ease. Don’t think of balsa like the stuff from your model airplanes,this is hard balsa. Balsa ranges from 2.5 lbs/cu ft to 10 times heavier. This is almost like very soft pine,nothing like the balsa on kids toy airplanes where you can bite through it. Great stuff!

    I use two of them back to back. They stick right together,and I put .5 micron boron nitride and .1 on opposite sides. Just a couple of wipes on each side and knife is razor sharp. No need for support bases with these balsa strips they hold fine to cutting board or other surface if you stick 2 of them together. the minor bits of junk on them don’t affect the sharpening effects.

    I must admit that my sharpening skill is not equal to this stone. I started off with a bestor 1200 and this suhiro rica 5000. Yes,I do get good edges with this as a polishing stone. In the process I have given this stone divits and have not flattened it yet. Yes I need to flatten it but I am on a budget. This is a softer stone and it takes practice to be able to sharpen on it without cutting gouges in the stone. Learn your blade angles on harder stones. Lately,I have been much better at holding an angle. But I am fully willing to admit it is not the stones fault. It is my fault.



    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!

    The bestor 1200 is a rock! It removes metal and is a very sturdy stone that does not wear away as much as the polishing stone that I have.



    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.

    If I lost my stone collection,this would be the first stone I would buy. It’s really easy to use,cuts extremely fast,and has a nice smooth feel. It doesn’t need much soaking but if you leave it in water for a long time,it doesn’t make the stone feel mushy. I can get my knives sharp enough using only this stone,although I prefer to use finishing stones. I can’t think of a single fault with this stone.

    First waterstone I have ever used so take my review for what it is,a rank novices opinion. However,coming from oilstones to this is a revelation. I also have a few diamond plates,both eze lap plates of 600 and 1200. I will say that the bester 1200 is a completely different animal than the eze 1200. The finish is much better. I do understand about feedback and I think this stone has great feedback. A really nice feel in use and easy to tell when you are off angle. The sound and the feel change instantly. I am very happyso far to have made the switch and with my choice of stones. By the way,I use my stones for woodworking tools.

    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.

If you don’t own a CCK cleaver you are missing out on one of the pillars of knifedom. That’s a bit of an exaggeration, but this type of knife and this brand in particular are possibly used by more cooks and chefs around the world than any other.

    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. 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.

At least they are in the minds of many chefs who swear by their fast and efficient ability to take on a huge variety of cutting, chopping, and slicing duties.

    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.

    For the price this cleaver is a amazing bargain. I recommend it to any person who enjoys using a vegetable cleaver for home or pro use. it has a thin blade,light wight,and decent stock edge I took it to work day of arrival and was and still am very happy with the knife. Now I understand why it has "a cult following among some knife forum members"

    Oh yeah if you are a cleaver guy forget the small and get this one you will be glad you did.

    I didn’t know how much I enjoyed cleavers until I got this knife. I have a Shun,and several other chef knifes,and I enjoy the versatility and ability of this cleaver more than my other knives. The edge keeps for a great long time and you can bang it around. I work as a banquet cook and use my knifes all day. Also,totally stoked for getting the larger version of this cleaver.

    I was searching all over for an authentic CarbonSteel Chinese Cleaver in Germany,all i could find was either StainlessSteel made in china or good but expensive japanese made Cleaver. My search ended,when i accidaently stumoled on Chefknivestogo.



    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 !!

    The knife was a great buy. I love the size and feel of the blade in my hand. It chops through everything with ease. I don’t use it on bones,but everything else glides through the cut.

    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.

    The large CCK slicer came in the box very sharp. After about ten minutes on a fine Norton bench stone it can slice completely across a sheet of newspaper with snagging. If you are not a pro I highly reccomend watching the many U tube videos on how to use a Chinese Cleaver. If you hold it forward of the handle it handles like a dream. Although it is very different I enjoy using it every bit as much as my Wusthof 10 inch chefs knife. I like the large size and enjoy using it over my Dexter= Russel Chinese cleaver. The CCK is a no none sense tool for cutting. A tool for doing lots of cutting.

    I’ve recently acquired a 1303 (small slicer) and 1103 (large slicer),and have found the 1103 to be the superior tool. It weighs 50% more (15 vs 10 ounces,rounded),and performs at a much higher level. The 1303 may have a niche for smaller users (cooking together with gf) or finer cuts,but I find myself using the 1103 90% of the time,grinning uncontrollably all the while. I love them both,but recommend the large slicer if you must choose.

They are not used for chopping bone; they are slicers and are treated and used like a chef's knife. The Chinese have used the cleaver since the beginning of time and the Japanese combined it with their metallurgy and created some really nice cleavers of their own.

    Chan Chi Kee (also known as CCK) is a big name in Chinese Cleavers. They also make various kitchen tools and utensils for professional and home cooks.

    The Li’l Rhino Cleaver gets its name from looking like the small horn on a rhinoceros. It is a perfect tool for chopping herbs and vegetables. It's also a good choice for breaking down primal cuts of meat. With its pointed tip and rounded front end, the Li’l Rhino also loves to get between bones or remove skin.

    I picked up one of these years ago on a trip to Hong Kong. The edge wraps around all the way to the tip,giving you a longer edge than a standard cleaver,making it very useful for slicing cuts such as portioning fillets. Also useful for hanging style cuts as the forward edge is in a more comfortable position. Use it by making a cut drawing the blade towards you,flexing the wrist as you approach the tip.

    I bought this knife on impulse because it’s cool looking. I find my self using it a lot more than I thought I would,It chops great I also have found that this knife can be held almost like a pen and the forward edge can be used to peel celleriac and large turnips. All around a fun and useful knife the steel easely takes a keen edge.

    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.

    I grew up in a household that almost exclusively used this kind of knife in the kitchen,so I was ecstatic when I found this particular knife online. Kudos to this company for doing its research! The CCK small carbon steel cleaver is an unlovely knife,but it is a workhorse when it comes to vegetable prep. It is also offered at an awesome price here. The blade is thin,easy to sharpen,and even for my small hands the handle fits comfortably. I used to always use a chef’s knife when dicing onions and slicing tomatoes instead of my old $4 (now retired) Chinese vegetable cleaver which had a thicker blade,but this one glides through with no wedging. This knife has not let me down yet! If you’re looking for an entry-level Chinese cleaver for slicing and general vegetable prep that won’t break the bank but will introduce you to what this type of knife excels at,the CCK KF 1303 is for you. Just make sure you’re willing to deal with extra hassle that comes along with carbon steel knife maintenance.

    The CCK KF 1303 is a very thin blade Chinese carbon steel chef’s knife. Because it is a carbon steel knife with laminated surface,it would not rust until the laminated surface is removed. I have sharpened my knife,giving it a 10o/15o compound edge. In doing so,the bevel has no lamination and will now easily taint/rust/patina. The knife can take on an edge. The original factory edge is not too bad either.



    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.

    This is my second purchase and thus second review. I like to add that I have switched from the Dexter-Russell Chinese Chef’s knife to this CCK KF1303 knife as my main knife. They are both good knives,but KF 1303 has two big advantages. First,KF1303 can make thin and precise cuts because it is a much thinner blade knife. Second,the knife can be easily sharpened (thinner blade) and it remains sharp longer for it is made from harder steel knife.



    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.

    If you want to try a cleaver out to get a change from the standard chef/gyuto ... this is the one. There is a reason these things have a cult following. The finish on these are pretty poor as mentioned elsewhere. They look like they were hand made in a back room. With that said,for the money I doubt you could get better. The profile is fantastic,the steel is good solid performing Carbon in terms of sharpness,edge retention and ease of sharpening. And personally I prefer a nice patina over scuffed up stainless. If you can’t keep your knife clean and dry you should be shopping BB&B for kitchen aid knives. Just my two sense. I am always telling Mark to rehandle some of the cheaper knives and sell them for a little more. This is one of those knives. If it have a better finished handle I would spend 50-60$ for this knife. This gets 4 stars based solely on the price. I would give it 3 if priced higher,but for 30$ the rough finish is acceptable.



    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.

    Its dirt cheap,and its great too. Thanks to its extremely thin grind,it can perform on par with many Japanese knives,but it can be a bit lacking in edge retention and might not support as acute of an angle. If you’re looking for a fun toy to play with,this one is highly recommended.

    This cleaver may be small when compared to their large cleaver,but at 8+ inches,it dwarfs my German meat cleaver. The balance and heft is perfect,though. It’s already an extension of my hand.



    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.

Yes,it’s rustic with its kurouchi-esq finish and raw wood handle,but this is a serious chunk of steel that will take a very keen edge. It’s thin,lite,and makes me want to make dishes that require a lot of fussy veg prep. It’s straight high carbon,and mine’s starting to patina,but this knife is all about performance,not looks. Did I mention that it’s a breeze to sharpen too? I’m only deducting a star for the unfinished handle.

    I bought this knife for an experiment on the different styles of chef knife and cooking around the world. i have to say after trying the standard french knife,the gyuto,the santoku,and the american chef knife. this knife takes the cake. after getting this i have never worked faster and more accurate on the line. i love the weight and the length of the handle. it’s short but the way a knife is supposed to be held it’s perfect. sure handle is unfinished and the blade looks like someone took a steel train rail and turned it into a knife but that adds to the character. and personally who cares about what the knife looks like as long as it performs well. i love this knife and it is always welcome on the line at work

    After i got this knife I was surprised at how much faster I rip through prep work. the knife is amazing and I recommend it to everyone. sure it looks like someone hammered a railroad spike to make a knife but it works. The only reason i give it a 4 and not a five is that the blade needed a sharpening when it arrived,but after I took it to a wet stone I have not had a better knife ever. This is always welcome on the line with me.

    This knife is ok,if you really want a Chinese cleaver,buy other models,not this one,the blade is as thin as a piece of paper,which a real Chinese cleaver will never be like. I grew up in China,the real cleavers all have thin edge,but the back spine is usually pretty thick,I’d say at least 3 times thicker than the edge part,that gives the cleaver a very good feeling. Well the CCK is just too thin all over the blade which makes it too light to handel. Other than that,the knife is built with ok quality,the blade body is not flat,the edge is not straight,the handel is cheap,I have to say I’m really disappointed with it. It’s not even as good as the one I use to have,and I got it from a local blacksmith in a really small town where I grew up. I’d say that one is at least 3 times better and the price is 10 times cheaper.

    I ordered one to see what everyone was talking about. After about a year of using mine I can say that I love it.



    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.

    I’ve been using the blade for about a week,and I love it. Light and comfortable,then and great for slicing and chopping.



    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...

    This is an excellent knife that gets very sharp on the chosera outfitted edge pro that I bought along with it. The blade seems to be mostly happy with the screaming sharp 12 degree primary edge I put on it. However at 12 degrees,I find that the blade needs a run across the steel about every 45 min of service to keep it scary sharp. After putting a microbevel on the blade,I find that the edge stability is much better without any sacrifice in sharpness (reducing the need to steel). Minus one star for lacquered blade and a handle that still looks ugly even when drowned in mineral oil. On a final note,this blade is a great value well deserving of it’s cult status on the cutlery forums. If you want to watch vegetables melt before you,this knife is a great starting point.

    This knife arrived today,so I have only a dinner’s worth of experience to review... But I’m crazy for this cleaver. The handle is "rustic" but flawless,in this case. The blade thin and sharp and made very short work of some very precise cuts of veggies. Being a vegetarian,I won’t test on "proteins" as the word is used in culinary circles. But this thing is super sharp,super easy to handle,unbelievably well priced for wat I have. It seems robust enough,too,though I won’t test it as a "lobster cracker" or some such thing. When I get my sharpening skills together I can review it from that side,too... but given that it’s an inexpensive carbon-steel cleaver,it promises to be one of the easier knives in my collection in this regard,too. Thanks!

    Order arrived quickly and the order experience was excellent. I grew up in a rural area where functional wood handles and non stainless steel butcher and pocket knives were normal. I have a few that are 60 or more years old and still work fine. But they need to be kept relatively clean and dry when not in use. This cleaver is sharp and has easily cut everything I’ve used it for. I like the height that keeps fingers away from what is being cut and the shape that allows putting pressure on the front top. I like it for pizzas better than the rolling style cutters.

    I originally bought this for my Taiwanese mom-in-law whose decreasing strength made her long ago retire her crude heavy chinese cleaver. I have a Chan Chi Kee #3 large cleaver that I love and use extensively,esp. when faced with large amounts of asian root vegetables. However I’ve found the #3 small cleaver is very well-balanced,agile,and makes short work of small veggies and herbs. AND it looks awfully cool. So,I’ve selfishly decided to keep the it for myself and maybe order another for mom-in-law or perhaps a Nakiri. While I’ve found Chan Chi Kees are extremely sharp right out-of-the-box,they can be sharpened to razor sharpness. And they have a big WOW factor for easily impressed foodies when you hang them on a magnetic strip next to your Japanese,German,French and other kitchen knives. Seriously though,if you’re toying with the idea of a chinese cleaver,they are awesome tools and Chan Chi Kees are the best.

    I must say it is a rough finish,but an outstanding production blade.It is thin esp. at the tip,I put a double blended shinoge line on the edge,very sharp.I also like the rocker on this cleaver some have too much,& I dont like the totally straight ones either.The gentle rocker of this vegitable cleaver puts alot of blade edge on the board making it good for chopping & forward push cuts as well.If you do not mind it’s rough looks & the little extra care of carbon,you cannot lose at this price.

    I heard about this cleaver on Kitchen Knife Forums. I received it as a Christmas gift and was thrilled with the sharpness out of the box! The cleaver is rustic,and I wish I could have afforded the custom handle. I feel that it would have been worth the upgrade. However,the standard handle is sufficient. The cleaver is worthy of a custom handle! As stated earlier,it was sharp out of the box. Once it was put on the stones,it became extremely sharp and it is a fantastic knife!

    For the forty dollars I spent on it,I really love this knife! I’ve purchased other Chinese cleaver,but I’ve never been able to find one with such a thin blade. It makes for an awesome slicer. The steel takes a pretty steep,refined edge and holds it well. After several nights of moderate to heavy home use,the blade still shaves the hair off my arm after a bit of stropping. The only issue I’ve had with it is chipping of the blade. After dicing some sweet potatoes with it (yea,probably a dumb idea to begin with - I almost went with a heftier knife,but decided to test the cck instead)there were several small chips all along the length of the edge. I sharpened it at 15 degrees per side,so that may have contributed to the problem. The blade was still shaving sharp except for the chipped areas,though!

    OK,I don’t know anything about knives. When I retired,I decided to take a cooking class. She said the CCK 1303 was the nu plus ultra of Chinese Cleavers. Since I was a young man,I have put up with using dull knives and hating the process of trying to hack through vegetables and making a mess of every attempt. With this cleaver,not only is every cut clean and precise,it is just a joy to work with. If you are tired of stainless steel knives that don’t hold an edge,this is the vegetable cleaver for you! Buy one and see if I’m not right.

    Bought this as an all-purpose knife; was raised in a chinese household,so I prefer the feel of this cleaver. As other people said,the blade is very thin,and it is carbon steel,so it does require some extra care. This knife is fantastic to use for veggies,and it’s easy and quick to sharpen. For the price,there’s no better bargain if you’re looking for this kind of knife. I highly recommend this knife.

    I’m sorry to be a downer,I have other knives from you I love but this one is a big disappointment. It chips way too easily. The edge on ours looks like a saw blade and we take very good care of it,no rust,but the edge is badly chipped. We have not used it as a cleaver...only to cut. Maybe I just got a bad one.

    Cleaver is great,very thin behind the edge. The steel is on the reactive side of the spectrum. Take that with a grain of salt though as my only experience with carbon steel has been with old french carbon steel knives and they didn’t react as much. Speaking of those old knives,I love their look so I removed the lacquer on this knife with acetone and then sanded off the finish. Stained the knife brown with an apple cider vinegar soak followed by a rinse in hot water. Scrubbed the loose oxide off and now my knife looks like it is a hundred years old. I wouldn’t recommend doing that to your knife if it is to be your go to knife. Removing the lacquer will leave more of the taste of iron on reactive foods. It diminishes with wear,but it will always be there and it is much more noticeable with the lacquer off. Not a big deal on potatoes that you cook or on onions that have such a strong taste,but it is quite noticeable on something like an apple slice.

    I purchased this knife about a year ago and have since upgraded to the 1103. This knife is an absolute laser. I’m pretty sure they use magic to create the steel,pretty good retention,and so mind bogglingly thin behind the edge that after sharpening you can conceivably split atoms. Edge is easily maintained on a honing steel. Kurouchi is smooth and not at all grabby. This is the ultimate cleaver if you want to try out that technique.

If you don’t own a CCK cleaver you are missing out on one of the pillars of knifedom. That’s a bit of an exaggeration, but this type of knife and this brand in particular are possibly used by more cooks and chefs around the world than any other.

    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.

There are a 20 degree and 15 degree angle on it so you can just cut the one you want, place it on the stone, place your knife on top of the guide and it will give you the angle.

It's been used for centuries in Japan and works well. This bottle has a fine spray top so it's easy to use. Simply spritz the knife and rub it over the blade with a paper towel.

    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.

    Not a lot to say about this stuff. It’s oil! It does exactly what it’s supposed to without any off smells or toxic crap that can transfer to food. It’s kept all traces of patina off my new Tanaka Ao Ko nakiri...is that good or bad? :-)



    Also,cheaper than ordering from Japan! Thanks,Mark!

    Great quality,no odor & a little bit goes a long way. FYI: I’m new to Japanese knives (bought 2 from here so far) & their maintenance,but the oil doesn’t feel sticky or watered down.

    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.

    I ordered this alongside my first carbon Japanese kitchen knife. The oil was packed well (no spills,which is impressive since there is no "freshness seal" such as is ubiquitous on most other products of this type. Exactly as described,this is pure Tsubaki oil,completely unscented and thinner than your typical mineral oil. Good for anything knife related,it is very effective for honing on oil stones and works well as a handle oil too. The primary use of this oil,however,is as a rust preventative. I really can’t comment on this aspect much,only time (and a few humid summers) will really tell.



    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.

    Okay,it’s just a Sharpie...but if you work in a kitchen you know Sharpies are like ciggies in prison! They’re cash money! ;-) And everyone will always try to swipe your pens and Sharpies,that’s just life in the kitchen. Well,no one I work with has the CKtG version! It’s like LoJack for your pens.



    Highly recommended.

We recommend splashing water on your plate and stone and then marking the stone with a pencil and rub them together to remove all the pencil marks. A quick 15 seconds before you start sharpening is all it takes to keep your stones flat and in optimal condition for sharpening.

    Excellent value. I have two,one for knife repair and one for flattening/ slurry.

    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.

    The stone itself is gritty,but it arrived in a severely warped state sadly (each side was ~2mm higher than the center in a U shape)



    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.

    Super sweet saya! It fits my Richmond Artifex 240mm gyuto perfectly and the pin that holds the blade inside is a really nice touch. The wood on the saya comes sanded but unfinished,so don’t touch it with wet or oily hands or you’ll leave marks on it. I guess you could always stain/seal it so you don’t have to worry. Overall awesome saya!

    It is best to buy a knife and saya at the same time so we can ensure a good fit. If you’re buying a saya separately, we will need to know which knife you’re buying it for. Please let us know in the Comments section of your shopping cart.

    If a knife has a compatible saya, it is shown and linked on the knife’s page. If no saya is shown, then we do NOT have a saya that fits, in which case we recommend a felt blade guard.

    We do not sell sayas for knives we do not carry on the website.

Handcrafted from the highest grade solid maple hardwood, this end grain board is easy on your edges and doesn't show cuts as much as edge grain boards. End grain boards also resist warping.

    This board is made with top-of-the-line Titebond III glue and has finger grips applied to the sides for easy lifting. The board is finished with multiple coats of FDA-grade mineral oil, then buffed with moisture-resistant beeswax. For care, simply give the board a quick hand wash and towel dry immediately and let air dry after you're done. We recommend our CKTG Board and Handle wax for occasional application.

    These boards ship directly from the shop and will ship separately from other items in your order, usually within a few days.

    My Knives have never been sharper! I have the Richmond Artifex series 10" chef’s knife,and Josh put an edge on it that I didn’t think was possible. My knives are well used,I take care of them,but don’t baby them. The last time he sharpened that one in particular,I was able to shave with it for three months afterwards. Well worth the investment!

    Josh does a great with knives all around from sharpening to replacing handles to reshaping the knife. I got a knife from him recently which came in great condition. I let a co-worker use it to chop onions and he ended up dropping it and chipping the blade. I gave it to josh to see if he could fix it and it came back good as new maybe even a little better. Great work. Great speed. Great Quality!

    The Daovua Bunka Style Knife is the most recent addition to a new line of knives from a young barefoot bladesmith we discovered working in Vietnam. He uses car and truck leaf springs as his steel of choice. This is not quite as crazy as it sounds because these car parts are made with some rather good high-carbon steel. Most leaf springs are made from 5160, which is an excellent blade of steel.

    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 do not possess the best fit and finish in the knife world! 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.

    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.

However, this is a Western-style Kiritsuke knife, so it is ground on both sides of the blade for ease of use and maintenance. Knives like this are sometimes referred to as a kiritsuke gyuto. This design is easier to use and sharpen than the traditional single-bevel kiritsuke. It also allows for an ambidextrous personality to the knife.

    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 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 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.

While not quite a great oak, the Daovua knife company has grown—from a fledgling enterprise in Vietnam making knife and tool blades out of old car parts, to a thriving business that has spread into making some really great kitchen utensils at super attractive prices.

    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.

    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.

These discarded automotive parts are a very good source of knife steel as they are usually made from 5160 carbon steel. Many highly regarded custom knife makers use this steel source to great effect for their highly desirable custom creations.

    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!

Just one look at the blade. One listen to the story behind it. Any knife loving collector will find it hard to resist!

    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.

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 is a new addition to our line-up of US based blacksmiths. He runs a shop in Albemarle, North Carolina named Doberman Forge and won the prestigious blacksmithing contest Forged in Fire, which airs on the History Channel. We have been adding more American smiths to our store recently and we are particularly happy to welcome Gabe to the CKTG family.

    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.

A culmination of his culinary background and knack for design, this knife offers peak performance, showcasing a blend of traditional and modern elements.

    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.

    Very hard stone. Feels quite fine/smooth,I use it for final on German kitchen knives. I think this is ansi 1000-bonded(blocks)/loose grit,which is roughly 2500 in jis or ansi-coated(sandpaper/film)

    Stone puts a nice sheen on the blade and doesn’t feel like too large of a leap after the 400.



    Much better quality than other stones I have used,just remember to clean them often during use.

    2000 grit tape cleaned up after the 1000 stone in only a few strokes on my edge pro apex. Gives a substantial increase in the shine,remember to use light pressure and the only negative is the tapes do not last long. To me,that isn’t a big deal,they are sacrificial tapes,to gain a superficial gloss or mirror effect on the edge of a knife. I have polished about 6 knives and used 3 tapes.

    takes a bit of practice to avoid nicking and slicing the tapes. With practice,without skipping grades,each strip is good for at least 35 inches of knife. They appear worn quickly but will keep polishing fairly well even when grey and cut up. Most of the wear is in the center as most knives have a convex curve.

    3000 grit tape cleaned up after the 2000 tape and gives a substantial increase in the shine,remember to use light pressure and the only negative is the tapes do not last long. To me,that isn’t a big deal,they are sacrificial tapes,to gain a superficial gloss or mirror effect on the edge of a knife. I have polished about 6 knives and used 3 tapes. (both 2000 and 3000).



    The 2000 grit tapes were giving a mirror effect,but the 3000 just brings it out even better. I would like to next order a set of 6000 and see what they do.

The Apex Model Edge Pro Sharpening System is a highly portable unit which we especially recommend for home users and those chefs on the go.

    The Apex Model Edge Pro is a patented system that will sharpen any size or shape blade (up to 3 ½"" wide), including serrated knives. Knives can be sharpened at exactly the same angle every time, making re-sharpening so fast you will never work with a dull blade again. The water stones in this basic kit have been custom formulated to free you from messy, gummed-up oil stones. They last a long time and are inexpensive to replace. The Apex will remove far less metal than electric sharpeners or grinders, eliminating wavy edges and adding to the life and performance of your knives. If you have ever wanted to put a great edge on a knife without having to spend the time practicing free hand knife sharpening then the Edge Pro Apex system is for you. We highly recommend these tools! The Edge Pro Apex 1 sharpening set includes:

    I bought the Edge Pro Apex 1 kit about a month ago and I am delighted with my new little friend. The edge pro system gives you the precise repeatable sharpening motion that you need to sharpen almost anything. I bought the Apex 1 because I was skeptical and wanted to start with the basic model and I also wanted the freedom to buy just the sharpening stones I actually need. I am very happy with the results ☺ If you need a sharp knife like I do then the Edge Pro Apex is for perfect for you.

    Bought the basic model and the two extra stones to avoid paying for the ceramic and all the extra stuff I dont want. It came out cheaper. Shipped and arrive pretty fast also. I recommend getting an angle cube just to make sure your angle is right. Its not the products fault,the built in angles do not work for all products. No product is capable of delivering that kind of accuracy. This product and site is good.

    This is a good start,but 2 things you are desperately going to need. One is the CKTG custom made drill stop thingy,it is a must have at 4.00 dollars. You will also need either a lapping stone,or the edge pro stone leveling kit,you can’t sharpen more than a couple knives before your stones will dish out and deform. This is a real pain,the leveling kit is about 50 bucks. I bought this kit with the drill stop and the 1k stone,I was getting along great but had to wait for the leveling kit to ship from edge pro. GREAT system though.

This handy tool will allow a novice to put razor sharp edges on his or her knives in no time. But this is not a system just for novices...it is used industry wide by chefs and line cooks who need a quick repeatable sharpening regime that is compact to carry and easy to set up.

    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.

    I was never very good with freehand sharpening/ polishing. So I sucked it up and bought this system. I say sucked it up but how much would it cost to buy five stones and a ceramic rod? Not that big a difference. Granted those stones are bigger and will last longer but given the learning curve and the time saved,this seems like a good trade off for me. There are limitations-the depth of the blade. I have a cleaver that is too big but if I take the guide off and use a custom cut block back there I should be fine. Also hawksbill knives--but I don’t have any. I should be able to do scimitar shaped blades in a much more controlled manner than freehand. Overall I am very happy with this system.

    Great product! Handles tanto’s,recurves,serrated,little,big knives and more! Extremely well made! I would recommend this to anyone who wants to sharpen several knives to a perfect edge. If you are only using it for 1 or 2 knives... it may be a waste of money. If you are using this for hunting/fishing/camping/and kitchen... then you will not find a better system out there!

Perfected from 20 years of sharpening over 100,000 knives, Ben Dale manufactures the world's most accurate knife sharpening system designed with the end user in mind. Whether you are a chef, butcher, hunter or simply someone that just likes knife sharpening, the Apex Edge Pro Sharpener is the tool for you.

    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.

    With a little practice the Edge Pro 4 is easy to use. Sharpened my 5 inch blade stiletto’s with a 320 grit stone first and then with a 600 grit stone to an unbelievable laser sharp edge. If you have tried other sharpeners like I have this product is the best. Buy your Edge Pro 4 from Chefknivestogo - timely product delivery and service.

    The EdgePro was a great investment for me. It is dead easy to setup and use,even though I’d never done any sharpening before. Within my first couple of sessions I was able to get a much better edge on my knives than what they came with from the factory. I chose the Apex 4 because it came with the high-grit polishing tapes. They allow me to get a beautiful mirror finish on the edge,and I find that the mirror polished edge holds its sharpness longer too. Another great feature of this system is the compact carrying case it comes in - now all my friends want me to bring the EdgePro with me when I visit so I can sharpen their knives! Its fun and hardly takes any time at all for knives in relatively good shape (i.e. no major chips). I’m looking forward to experimenting with other stones made for the EdgePro,such as Chocera and Shapton. Easily worth the money.

    I wish I had stumbled across this years ago. I have only been moderately successful as a hand sharpener,and have been hesitant to buy other kits (Gatco or Lansky). It does take a little practice to get going,but the same is true for any system. Go ahead an buy another 120 grit stone if you order a system,because you are going to want to reprofile a bunch of blades after you start using this. I just put a scary (to me) sharp edge on a kit knife that has been a piece of pretty but useless of junk. This was my second knife to sharpen on the kit,and I feel confident enough now to tackle my Randall #25 that I use to clean deer (yes I actually use a Randall to cut things).

    The EdgePro is a worthwhile investment in my book!

    The entire CKTG buying experience was superb. Mark clearly answered my questions (he picked up the phone on the first ring,old school,I like it)and the Edge Pro was shipped the same day I bought it. As for the Edge Pro itself,it works even better than I thought; I put a shaving-sharp edge on all my knives on the first try.

    Love it. Near mirror polished blades and almost perfect re-profiles (even S30v!) in record time (both of which are my limited by my ability,not the system). Truly scary sharp results.



    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.

    This is a really terrific ceramic hone. Like all Idahones it has a great feel and works very well. I find the Idahones to be superior to any other brand I’ve tried. The plastic sheath is really brilliant- it protects the hone from damage,and when you draw the ceramic from the sheath the opposite end had a socket that holds the rod,allowing the entire length of the sheath to serve as a handle. Very slick!



    I carry this one and a HA Borosilicate Glass hone in my work roll at all times. If either broke I’d be on the horn to CKtG for a replacement ASAP! For twenty bucks I gotta call this one a no-brainer!

    This is a nice "mod." It only saves a few seconds probably,but it is just less hassle to change each stone. My only concern really is how long the spring will last,but it is pretty inexpensive if you ever have to replace it.

If the list of knives on this page does not excite you consider looking at debas which are Japanese styled knives which are also commonly used in this role."|"tagrchswstfl."|""|""|""|""|""|""|"(:DOBERMAN :DOFO80BU16 :KATKHO18FIHA :MACCHSEFI :MACPRFIKN7 :NISG2TSBUKN1 :TAGRCHSWSTFL :HAVGTSFI21)"|""|||""|""|""|"Knife Types "|||""|"https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/fillet-knives-90.png"|"https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/fillet-knives-91.png"|""|""|""|""|""||| find-override||ITEM.|"Find-override"|"http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/find-override.html"|""|||T|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""||| fishse||ITEM.|"Finish Sharpening Service"|"http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/fishse.html"|""||||""|""|""|""|""|"The factory edges on the Richmond knives will shave out of the box but this group of guys that I nickname the Knife Posse can do better.

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.

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 push cutting over a rocking style. The thin blade is made from a super hard steel called HAP40, which is a powdered metallurgy (PM) alloy. The steel is exquisitely heat treated to a high 65-66 HRC.

    This is a knife that 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 in strength and wear resistance. The cladding is nicely polished and, together with the lovely, semi-custom oak octagonal handle with 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 combines with its other fine attributes to qualify the Gihei HAP40 nakiri as a great value.

    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."|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|"(:FUFKHCAGY27 :KANASUVGGY27 :KIELCAGY27 :KOAOSU27GY :KOHAGY27 :KOBL2GY27 :KOWEASGY27 :KOHAWAGY27 :KOVGDAGY27 :KOVG5TSGY27 :KOFUBL2SU27 :KOHD2PE18EB :KUFUASGY27 :KUSESG2GY27 :KUFUVGGY18 :KUROSAKI3 :MAKUGY27 :MAKI27GY :MAYUGY27 :MAKOGY27 :MASH270GY :MOASGY27CH :MORITAKA7 :NAGIGY27 :SARADABL2SU2 :SUZDDAGY27 :SUZDDASU27 :TABL2GY27 :TAGRCHGY27 :TAKAYUKITUS7 :TAKAYUKITUS8 :TODPCHKN27 :TOGYR2POST27)"|""|||""|""|""|"Knife Types Gyutos "|||""|"https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/gyutos-270-300mm-45.png"|"https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/gyutos-270mm-96.png"|""|""|""|""|""||| hand-held-sharpeners||ITEM.|"Hand Held Sharpeners"|"http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/hand-held-sharpeners.html"|""||||""|""|""|""|""|"Here is our current selection of sharpening jigs and hand held sharpening machines.

    Hankotus are stout knives used for boning and trimming meat. These knives have pointed tips for inserting the knives into the cut and short height so the knives can turn to cut along bone, connective tissue, or fat. Hankotsus are sometimes unsharpened or obtusely sharpened at the heel to give a very strong edge for tough work during boning. Hankotsus are commonly asymmetrically ground so users should be aware that these knives may require a different set of techniques for sharpening and maintenance.

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!

They are real bang-for-your-buck items that look and feel like far more pricy counterparts. The knife featured here is from the AS Morado line.

    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.

Enter the Harukaze AS Morado!

    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.

The look is the most obvious attraction. Resembling weapons more than any other kitchen knife shape, kiritsuke knives are quite unusual in many other ways. Just as important as the look is the function they provide from having a slightly flatter profile than a regular gyuto. The fine tip is also great for intricate detail work.

    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.

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.

    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 fine santoku 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!

We like the name and image it conjures up! We have Harukaze knives made exclusively for CKTG by a well-regarded factory in Tosa, Japan. There are various types of steel and styles available in this multi-line range of cutlery.

    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!

    We really like the profile of this very versatile slicer. It can easily be used as a short-height gyuto. And at the price it represents one of the best values on the site.

    Harukaze means windy spring and has since become one of our best brands for good quality bang for the buck knives with high performance and excellent steels.

    This fine looking gyuto is made from the ubiquitous stainless steel known as VG-10. It is also called V-Gold 10, and it is, hands down, the most used stainless steel in the Japanese kitchen knife industry. There are several reasons for this popularity, leading among them are the great stain resistance of the steel and its ability to take a very sharp edge.

The softer stainless steel cladding is given a tsuchime (hammered) finish, which enhances the knife’s great looks and also helps in achieving better food release.

    The mid 180mm gyuto is a real jack-of-all-trades in the kitchen. It can tackle virtually any ingredient, large or small, cooked or raw. This particular version of the ubiquitous chef knife possesses a great balance and fast cutting action. This is a wonderful rendition of East meets West. The western style handle is attractive and easy to care for with a sturdy full metal tang. It is very well finished and adds a touch of class to the attractive aesthetic of the damascus hammered blade.

    Very sharp,easy to manipulate,and avery handsome knife. It does a great job on tomatoes and fresh mozzarella,two items that can be downright frustrating with a below-average knife. I was especially impressed by the short amount of time it took to get shipped.

    Harukaze means windy spring and has since become one of our best brands for good quality bang for the buck knives with high performance and excellent steels.

    This fine looking gyuto is made from the ubiquitous stainless steel known as VG-10. It is also called V-Gold 10, and it is, hands down, the most used stainless steel in the Japanese kitchen knife industry. There are several reasons for this popularity, leading among them are the great stain resistance of the steel and its ability to take a very sharp edge.

    The Harukaze is a classic gyuto and is the most popular blade shape used by American cooks. It's on the long side for a gyuto at 213mm (they list it at 210mm), which adds balance and versatility to the knife. The edge is double-sided, so it is useful to right- and left-handed users. It is also a breeze to maintain. This is a high performer and great looks at a very attractive price.

    This Hammered Damascus line is the knife of a hundred companies. I dont know if Sakai Takayuki finishes the knife off any different than Togiharu,Gekko,Yoshihiro,etc... but I had to give one a try and have to say that this knife is legit. Fit and finish are decent - barely crooked bolster but handle is a nice size and fit. Light yet doesn’t feel flimsy and damn sharp out the box. Bevel on mine is not 50/50 almost like a 60/40. The knife itself is a looker though the inclusion of "made in japan" under the kanji is a little corny. All these slight flaws don’t hinder the fact that this knife has been performing strong in a professional kitchen while getting a lot of use as a line knife and not being handled lightly. I haven’t sharpened it once,not even out the box and it is still cutting through almost anything with ease as long as I hone it every once and a while. Wouldn’t use for heavy prep or anything sloppy - handle can get a little slippery,and Im not saying it is taking down chicken bones but it was working fine on small pumpkins the other day. Overall,this isn’t some gift shop knife even though it is sold under many names and stories. I would recommend for any use - home,student,pro

We specified a kurouchi finish to these knives for the added protection it affords, as well as the great rustic look that so many people love.

    The inner core of White #2 is covered with a layer of soft iron that adds lightness and strength to the blade. It is quite a stout blade for a bunka but it is still light and nimble in hand. These knives are so versatile they can cover almost all needs in the kitchen, from in-hand work to major prep sessions. They come with a lovely oval rosewood and black pakka handle which is perfect for right- and left-handed users.

    We are very impressed with the overall fit and finish of these knives given their very keen price. We think you will be too.

The Harukaze name is derived from the Japanese word for “windy spring.”

    Harukaze White #2 knives are constructed from high carbon Shirogami #2 steel. This is a very popular alloy used for kitchen knives. It is favored for its great edge retention and ease of sharpening characteristics. The blade is made san-mai style with an outer cladding of a soft carbon steel. The iron is left with the forger’s scale on the blade for that classic rustic look. The cladding not only looks cool, but it also goes a long way in protecting the soft iron jigane. Daily maintenance is reduced significantly by the use of this kurouchi 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 well-finished oval rosewood and black pakka wood handle.

    These knives represent some of the best value in our store and would make the perfect introduction to the world of Japanese kitchen cutlery.

    Harukaze means ""windy spring"" in Japanese. We like the name and image it conjures up! We have Harukaze knives made exclusively for CKTG by a well-regarded factory in Tosa, Japan. We specified a kurouchi finish to these knives for the added protection it affords, as well as the great rustic look that so many people love.

    The inner core of White #2 is covered with a layer of soft iron that adds lightness and strength to the blade. It is quite a stout blade for a santoku and it's workhorse feel gives confidence and adds durability to the edge. These knives are so versatile they can cover almost all needs in the kitchen, from in-hand work to major prep sessions. They come with a lovely oval rosewood and black pakka handle which is perfect for right- and left-handed users. The blade guard is the best choice for this knife. Our santoku sayas don't fit well.

The dimensions also make it well suited to taking on smaller ingredients or ones requiring fine detail work. It has a nice profile, good for pushers and rockers. There is a nicely executed symmetrical 50/50 edge which will hold that sharpness very well.

    These are great-looking knives, for sure. But they are also real performers.

    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.

Plenty. Osaka/Sakai is a port town and the Portuguese sailed to this area and began trading guns and tobacco to the Japanese starting in 1543. The Japanese took well to both items and Japanese farmers began tobacco farming soon thereafter. Initially, most of the production was made for the elite classes of society. The tobacco leaves were cut finely and smoked in pipes. Of course they needed a good sharp knife to process the leaves and some entrepreneurial blacksmiths developed the necessary techniques to manufacturer a high quality tobacco knife for the task. The knife resembled a tall cleaver. The photo to the left is an example of one of these knives. These knives quickly became famous for their cutting performance and the Sakai name became synonymous with quality blacksmith production of steel cutting tools.

    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.

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.

    This history of the blacksmith tradition of Echizen was written by the Takefu Co-operative/association. Our translator Erina Olstadt did the translation.

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.

    This is a great rod! Aggressive and fast, but not ultra low grit. It is a 1200 Grit, about 20 Microns, and works great. Also handy for pulling the burr off of cheaper steel knives. The steel will discolor the rod, but it will continue to work well.

    Fast, neat abrasion. And made in America.

    This thing is great! I use it on softer steel knives like Henckels/Victorinox Forschner and on my harder steel Japanese knives. A few very light passes on each side and my blades come back to paper towel shredding sharpness. What works best for me is to hold the Idahone horizontally, with the tip on the edge of a kitchen countertop. I then hone the blade almost as I would on a sharpening stone. I would rate the Idahone fine at 2K Japanese water stone grit level, maybe even finer - it puts a nice toothy edge on all the steels I've tried thus far.

    Get the eraser as well - it's inexpensive and it just works.

    I think the rod is quite nice for its purpose. However I am disappointed to find a nick in the honing surface. If I had been buying it in person I would have inspected it and found another without the flaw. It still does a very nice job on my Shun knife but I have to be careful to miss the nick.

    Love these. They call it at 1200 grit and I think this is accurate. However, where this thing pulls double-duty is ""cutting"" the burr off of cheap steel edges. The 1200 grit with ultra light pressure leaves a fine edge for general kitchen chores. It is only fair to warn that these will break. They will also get stolen. My reason for purchasing here.

    This is a great honing rod. Up to this point, I have used a global which seemed to do the trick. This rod is a finer grit than the global but seems to work every bit as well. (I don’t know what the grit is, but perhaps somebody could chime in and say). When I purchased this, I also purchased the Mac rod which is also a nice addition. The Mac is a well made honing rod that deserves more time on my knives before I submit a review. That said, when using the both the Idahone Fine and the Mac, I have to say that the former gets the nod. The edge this puts on the blade is remarkably fine, provides some toothyness, all with just a few swipes. As for my knives, I have had success with this rod on the whole lot. This includes my softer all carbon Sabatiers, and my harder Japanese blades (Moritaka and Misonos, both carbon and Ux10s). Oh, and you Sabatier holders out there: Let me say that again. This rod does a very good job with the carbon Sabs: Just three or four swipes a side and you are really good to go. Great edge, great performance. Simply put, other than the fact that the build is not quite as robust as the Mac, this is a great rod for the price. Look at it this way, for the price of a decent bottle of wine, you can get a hone that really does help you maintain a screaming sharp edge with ease. What more could you ask for?

    Excellent hone. About 3 weeks into using a new Mac Mighty Chef's knife, I felt a slight slip on one section of the knife when slicing a tomato. One series of strokes across this hone, and the knife was working like it was out of the box. The length is perfect for a 9.5 in chef's knife. Highly recommended.

    I use this on some Japanese stainless and carbon steel knives. Fast and easy results. I should have bought this thing years ago. If you already have a bunch of stones and you get tired of setting up every time your knife needs a touch up, the Idahone will make your life a lot easier.

    This is my first hone stone at this grit level.



    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.

    A very nice finishing stone. It feels slightly softer/chalky than the Kitayama but if used with very light pressure it’ll create a very refined edge. I’ve used this with and without a Nagura and I find for stropping it works better without mud. I think the mud gets particles from the knife that don’t have a chance to break down when stropping and those particles could dull edge. I also like using green chromium oxide on a piece of flattened hard maple for stropping.

    I got this stone because my progression went from a 150 grit to 1000 grit stone,and I often felt like I needed something in between. I must say I really like this stone,it seems to work very fast but leaves a finish that cleans up easily,especially when I am comparing to a 150 grit stone. I had liked using my 1000 grit stone as my starting place for resharpening knives,this stone has taken over that job,as it does it faster. I really like this stone,the color gives you a good idea of how much metal you are removing and I find it feels very smooth to use. I recommend this stone to anyone,and would like to try more of them.

    (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.

    For a combo stone,this is probably the best on I’ve ever used.

    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.

Now this process could finally end when it’s 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.

    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. 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.

The workshop is located in the Miyagi Prefecture and has been in operation for over 350 years. Once in a while we are lucky enough to be able to offer a unique and historically significant knife line to our customers. The knife line we present here is significant in that it is probably the last series of knives being produced using the Nakaniida process.

    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 is created using a technique known as the Nakaniida Process, which involves 28 steps and is unique in that the blade is hardened three times. This entire process is carried out by Mr. Ishikawa himself.

    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.

We commissioned her to make these amazing prints to celebrate our 20th anniversary.

    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 features a really elegant suminagashi finish that is enhanced by some finely hand-chiseled kanji elements. The unusual hybrid handle is the design element that sets this knife apart from most others. It utilizes a multi-layer laminate of oak to reduce the chances of shrinkage and distortion while remaining 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.

    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.

In fact the blacksmith responsible for these stunning new knives, Katsuyasu Kamo, is better known in Japan for his work in the cutting and gardening tool arenas. He has been forging blades for over 50 years and is one of the founders of the famous Takefu Village Co-operative Knife Factory.

    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.

The sleek bolstered construction. The light colored multi-ply oval handle. The slim understated finish to the blade. All of this results in a truly handsome knife. Fortunately this beauty is more than skin deep.

    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.

His forte was originally in the industrial and craft end of the blade making business but we are very glad he has ventured into making blades more fit for the kitchen.

    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.

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.

    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.

As a maker of blades required to tackle tough workloads he is an expert at forging and constructing sturdy and resilient cutting utensils. We are extremely happy to be the only company outside of Japan selling these unusual and attractive kitchen knives.

    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.

The hankotsu is a knife that falls into this category for many aspiring users.

    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.

    Out of the box edge was good. This knife is pretty easy to sharpen and stays sharp though some beatings. It is a fun knife to use.

It is the same steel that is used in the ever-popular Kikuichi TKC line of blades. The honesuki pictured here is specially designed for processing poultry, but many use the knife for other tasks as well.

    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!

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.

They have been making blades for many different needs and uses with an emphasis on butchering, filleting, and other meat processing functions. Their products are very well made and use some of the top steels available, including the popular semi-stainless alloy, PS60. This steel is used in the manufacture of razor blades as well as other cutting tools. PS60 is almost identical to AEB-L and 13C26. Kanehide is able to increase the hardness to HRC 60-61 through special heat treating; they also increase the wear resistance by giving the blades a cryogenic treatment with liquid nitrogen at minus 180 degrees Celsius.

    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.

    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!

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.

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.

    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.

    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.

After having sold these knives for the past several years, our opinion of them has not lessened at all. There are several reasons for this. Number one is the steel. The knife is made with a very popular semi-stainless steel using a mono steel construction. It is the same steel as can be found in the Kikuichi TKC line of knives, but at a hefty reduction in price. The alloy is hardened to 61 Rockwell. The steel combines several attributes of a stainless steel (less prone to corrosion and thus less maintenance) with the edge holding and ease of sharpening associated with full carbon blades.

    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!

    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 asked them to make up some blades using their proprietary semi-stainless steel, and the results surprised us. These are great blades at a really great price.

    TK steel is like a bit of stainless and a bit of carbon. It takes and holds a nice edge while being easy to resharpen. Meanwhile it is semi-stainless, so the normal maintenance routine associated with high-carbon blades is reduced quite substantially. It is a mono steel construction and the steel is hardened to 61 HRC. 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.

    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.

It is a perfect introduction to Japanese-style chef knives. Easy to maintain, easy to sharpen, and easy on the pocket.

    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.

    Yes,this Kangaroo is something to hop around about! I use it to finish my straight razor,and I’m completely blown away by my results. Use it with nothing on it after your compounds. It keeps an edge that I trust on my face,day in and day out.

    What an amazing strop! Despite the 1" x 6" format it works very well for freehand stropping,even on large knives. Not surprising I guess since it was developed by a guy that sharpens gyutos on Post-It Note. :-)

    Kens strops are amazing. And the Kangaroo is no exception. It is extremely thin,and has almost no give,thus making your chances of micro convexing your edge very small. Compounds work fantastic on it as well. Highly recommended. I do prefer the 2x6" size for freehand stropping.

    The Kangaroo strops are worth every penny. They are a high quality stropping substrate. The stiction produced when used with the edge pro produces a heavy burnishing effect in conjunction with the effect of the stropping compound you are using.



    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.



    I use mine with CBN,these make a great finishing step for all knives.

    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.

    The 1"" x 6"" strops are mounted on aluminum blanks. Pictures can't truly capture the smoothness of the roo, which must be touched to truly believe just how fine it is.

And when it comes to great looks very few patterns can better the ladderback design. Ladder damascus has a more organic look than geometric patterns like herringbone and diamondback, but it is more uniform than the more widely known random patterns.

    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.

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 one of the results of this collaboration. The Kanjo black damascus is a unique knife to our site made with VG10 damascus and a unique finish that gives a dramatic look to the blade. The knife is fully stainless and has excellent heat treatment and a grind that makes quick work of cutting food.

    Fit and finish on these knives are top shelf and the design aesthetic is excellent. The knife also comes with a new black handle that looks great on the dramatic blade.

Here is a beautiful example. VG-10, or V-Gold 10, is a modern cocktail of carbon, chromium, cobalt, manganese, molybdenum, silicon, and vanadium. 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. It is fully stainless and thus really easy to maintain.

    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.

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. I pushed him to do knives in ZDP-189 since I knew that steel was very popular with our customers but was not being used by many of our suppliers. At the time, Henckels had an exclusive for ZDP-189 and it took a while for the steel mill to relent and start selling the alloy to outsiders.

    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.

He has taken to the job in an amazingly short time and is now producing some very nice blades, especially considering the short apprenticeship. Both father and son are master sharpeners and they only do edge sharpening on doughnut wheel machines.

    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.

Kanjo started working for his father about 5 years ago, after he graduated from school. He asked me a couple years ago, over some beers, about designing some knives for CKTG and these fine items are the result.

    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.

Their compact length, tall height, and reverse tanto-style tips make them perfect all-arounders in many home and professional kitchens. They are fun to use for many styles of cutting and chopping, and the pointed delicate tips make them great for fine detail work like garnish prep. These knives are tight, fast, and dexterous in use. Plus they look so cool!

    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 company is based in one of the four famed Japanese knife making meccas, Takefu Village in Echizen. The Kanehiro Company then moved into the hands of famed blacksmith Yoshimi Kato.

    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.

    Magnificent knife! 25º (total) cutting edge and an 11º secondary bevel. Beautiful balance. I scored a leg of lamb straight out of the box and it cut through so the cutting was easily controlled. Like a surgeon’s scalpel. No force or sawing required. Leaves Shun and Global for dead! Try this to discover what a high-end Japanese knife really is.

When the Kanehiro AS 240mm gyuto was introduced to Chef Knives To Go, there were few knives offering Hitachi Aogami Super carbon steel, a premier cutlery steel, coupled with the convenience of stainless steel cladding.

    This Kanehiro Nakiri was straight-razor sharp upon delivery. The metal on this blade is incomprehensibly strong considering the light overall weight of the piece. Truly an exquisite product from a talented smith. Very pleased.

    I really,really like these knives. Not only are the blades visually stunning (the finish can be described as dark gun metal),these Kanehiros are HARD. Ping the blade and listen to it resonate. The difference is like comparing crystal to glass. These are effectively small swords. Amazing blacksmiths at work here. It would be fantastic to see more types of knives from this maker.

    It’s taken me a couple of months since I got this petty,but I’m ready to review. Great fit and finish. Unbelievably sharp out of the box. Love the handle(mine is a darker wood than in the picture). I’ve been amazed at the detailed cuts I’ve been able to produce with this little baby. It took some getting used to(this is my 1st 150mm petty)but is sooooo worth it. Buy it!

    This is a wonderful knife. The edge is perfect out of the box. The fit and finish is very nice as well. The knife is a feather weight,weighing only 120g. The edge where the aogami shows looks great once it starts to color. If you are looking for something comparable to the Hiromoto aogami core cladded knives,these knives are the way to go.

    Great knife,very light,very stiff,and good F&F. Aogami super steel can be very easily made scary sharp. Thanks Mark for the recommendation. The primary bevel is a little bit sticks to some foods,but a simple polish job fixes that.

The characteristically oblong blade has a very flat profile for maximum edge-to-board contact. No accordion cuts around here! It is a thin blade purposefully made to avoid splitting or wedging in hard ingredients. The squared off shape also makes it a perfect shovel for food transferring.

    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.

    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 cherry octagonal handle with a black pakka wood ferrule.

It is a fine grained high carbon stainless steel that possesses a similar cutting feel and ease of sharpening of a classic carbon steel. Ginsan steel is an excellent stainless steel for forging and, in the hands of a skilled smith like Kato-san, it is a very similar alloy to white steel in terms of edge formation and sharpness.

    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 which adds to the aesthetic appeal while aiding with food release.

    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.

At 270mm this is a medium sized example of the breed, so it is perfect for home chefs or pros working in tight spaces.

    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.

Shorter in length than a gyuto, this knife has a tall blade height which allows for a wide range of uses. It is especially favored by those who prefer push-cutting and chopping techniques and is often used in place of a short gyuto or santoku. Plus, its attractive reverse tanto profile adds to its appeal.

    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.

He recently took over the business and is making quality knives for us, just as his father did. He works at Takefu Knife Village cooperative, home of some of the world’s greatest blade makers.

    This is about the smallest size that the gyuto style knife is 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 knife is made from VG10, a very popular stainless steel among some of the top knife making powerhouses like Shun and Myabi. 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.

    A traditional rosewood and pakka wood handle is a perfect match for the blade in terms of form and function. It’s a great looker and a wonderful all-around performer.

He recently took over the business and is making quality knives for several brands, just as his father did.

    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.

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.

    This line is made from the popular stainless steel called VG-10, which is known for its great edge-taking and edge-holding characteristics. VG-10 is also known as V-Gold 10 and is a stainless steel with a high carbon content of 1%, plus trace elements that 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. The inner core is revealed under the damascus which then transforms to a great looking nashiji (pear skin) finish.

    Many chefs like the added length and height that 270mm knives bring to the table. This example boasts a really nice 55mm height coupled with a full 270mm edge length. The added ease of maintenance from the VG-10 and stainless cladding makes this a perfect knife for a large busy kitchen environment.

They are employed almost exclusively for cutting vegetables. The classic oblong shape is the main feature of the knife, as is its very flat blade. The shape of the nakiri bocho differs according to the region of origin. The knives in the Tokyo area are rectangular in shape, whereas the knives in the Osaka area are called kamagata nakiri and have a rounded corner on the far blunt side.

    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.

    The Kato Nashiji line of blades bears the proud name of his family and lives up to the reputation that they deservedly have for making great handmade kitchen cutlery. They are constructed using a san-mai combination of VG-10 and a stainless damascus outer cladding. The VG-10 hagane is hardened to 61 HRC and, together with the stainless jigane, makes for a knife with very rugged characteristics which is also very easy to care for.

    This is a classically sized and styled petty, with a blade length of about 146mm and a height at the heel of almost 30mm. It features a really nicely radiused choil and a flat cutting edge that sweeps to the fine tip almost 3/4 of the way along the blade. The blade is beautifully presented with the multi-layer damascus showing on the lower road and transforming into the upper portion which features a nashiji finish and some lovely hand engraved kanji.

The name is derived from the Japanese words suji, which means tendon, and biki, which means pull. It is a perfect implement for draw-slicing cooked proteins and soft foods like terrines and pates. The thin narrow blade allows the user to make a cut in one action thus disturbing the food as little as possible.

    The Kato Nashiji Suminagashi is a line of fine cutlery that bears the proud name of the famous knife making family. It is another example of why they have their enviable reputation for making great handmade kitchen cutlery. The Nashiji Suminagashi blades are made using a san mai construct of VG-10 and a stainless damascus outer cladding. The VG-10 hagane is hardened to 61 HRC and together with the stainless jigane, makes for a knife with very rugged characteristics which is also very easy to care for.

    The lovely looking blade is attached to a traditional octagonal rosewood handle with a black pakka wood ferrule. This is superior looking and performing sujihiki is made by one of the great blacksmith houses. And at this really competitive price, it is easy to recommend.

This results in a blade that can take a really sharp edge while being able to sharpen up easily. The symmetrical grind on the blade is relatively thin and has a very nice distal taper beginning about 2/3 along the spine. It has a bit of flex and is light in the hand. The finely finished black pakka wood handle gives the knife a good central balance point. It is attached with a stainless steel bolster and 2 rivets.

    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.

    OOTB,first impression; It’s really light and actually seems like a stainless knife for some reason. Weighs in at 148 grams. The balance point is fingertip length in front of the bolster.



    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.

They are a larger blade that can handle almost any cutting or chopping jobs around the kitchen. The Kikuichi Elite Carbon is a great example of the breed. It boasts a mono steel construction of SK-5 carbon steel which has the ability to take an extremely sharp edge.

    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.

Softer carbon SK-5 steel is a feature you will love at home or at work for its ease of use in slicing meats, vegetables, and fruits of almost any type. The full-length edge from tip to heel is also easier to sharpen before or after every use. This is a large knife but it may well become your most used blade with its multipurpose capabilities.

    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.

    This is a knife i fell in love with immediately when i opened the box. It just has that cool factor. I initially bought it just for fun. I had expected it to be a thick and heavy boning knife. When i picked it up for the first time,i was amazed at how thin it was. It is like a petty knife rather than a boning knife. I have since been using it in place of both my honesuki and petty on a pretty regular basis. As it is carbon,it requires a little extra care,but i have found that this steel is not too reactive. And because it is carbon,edge upkeep is really fast and easy. I have put a pretty thick edge on this so it will hold up while breaking down chicken and other poultry,but you can put a much thinner edge on this and it will hold up great. Every time i pick this knife up it grows on me more and more. Is it really that great of a knife or is the "cool factor: just that overwhelming? who knows... but i love this knife

    I bought this knife primarily to butcher deer,elk and other large game animals as I’m a hunter and wanted to replace my Forschner boning knives with something that was a little less flexible and held an edge better. This knife filled the bill perfectly. I boned out deer carcass without missing a beat. This knife finished the task with as good an edge as when I started! It is a carbon steel blad so you’ll have to care for it,dry it and oil it until a patina develops but like any carbon knife it sharpens fast and holds an edge a long time! This is a VERY nice knife and I expect I will be using it on more game next year!

    The knife is a decent deal for the money. Fit and finish leaves a little to be desired as the handle had some very small gaps where it attached to the tang. Also,the markings on the knife were stamped on rather than engraved which means they’ll disappear with any amount of patina/use. Holds and edge well and takes one very quickly. Blade is flexible (though not like a boning knife).

They feature a double-sided grind and are optimized for slicing and carving a variety of boneless meat and fish products with precision and ease. Because of the relatively long blade-to-height ratio, they achieve this act with very little drag or food stickage. The soft carbon mono steel construction has a very tight grain structure. This endows the knife with a wonderfully sharp steep edge which is easy to maintain and sharpen. Of course, it will rust if it is not completely dried after use. The gray patina that develops will aid with this corrosion resistance over time.

    A really excellent sujihiki. Came very sharp out of the box and got even sharper afterward.



    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.

    this knife looks flawless out of the box. one of the best knives i have bought,should’ve bought this earlier before. on the first nigth on the job,it worked perfectly and fish barely sticks to it =) one thing i hate about carbon is that it discolors if moisture "baked" itself in the blade. But,overall this is a good buy! oh and one more thing: the black saya cover offered in this page barely fits the sujihiki,dont even bother with the cover. it fits just in to scratch the knifes edge,bad bad design but the paint looks great...

    Bought this knife a few months ago for slicing fish and have been pretty disappointed since I opened the box. Balance isn’t as good as my kikuichi carbon guyoto,handle feels light and cheap in comparison,and the kanji is screened on instead of stamped like they used to be. Knife sharpens up pretty easily on my 1000 & 6000 stones,but it definitely doesn’t hold an edge as well as some of my other carbon knives. Would definitely recommend spending the extra cash and going for the misono sujihiki instead.

In fact the original company dates back 700 years. Kikuichi was originally a manufacturer of Samurai swords that bore the Emperor's Chrysanthemum symbol as a mark of their excellence.

    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.

An added bonus is that it is very easy to sharpen.

    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.

    Where do I start,This knife is exceptional to begin with. I just graduated LCB culinary college and work at Emeril’s Restaurant,City walk,Universal Orlando. First off after using German steel since I started in this industry,there is no comparison Japanese steel is Superior! I’m a very particular person and making a decision when buying a new Chef’s Knife was nearly impossible. Seemed the more I researched about Japanese knives,the harder it was to make a purchasing decision. I looked at many many knives; Misono ux 10’s,Blazen,Hattori Hd series,Suisin inox. All these knives are amazing when it comes to sharpness,balance,weight,design,and strength. I think what sold me about the Kikuichi was it’s superior quality. No gimmicks,no lies,this knife is the truth and absolutely beautiful. It came razor sharp,I could shave my forearm with it right out of the box. When you hold this gyuto you can truly feel the quality instilled into its production. I was so excited to go to work the next day and use it. That lunch we did about 325 covers and that night we did around 600 covers. To no surprise this knife did not even need a quick run on the steel through out the day. It held its edge through the entire 925 cover day. It cuts through anything with complete ease. This Gyuto is truly a dream. It is the sharpest knife in my kitchen hands down,and by far the most beautiful. My chef asked me the other day if he could use my "sharp knife" (Kikuichi Gyuto),When he has Shun’s and Mac knives. That should tell u enough about the quality of this blade. Hands down Superior to other Knives. To top it off,the look of this knife will get people in your restaurant talking. Nobody can deny its beauty. 5/5 stars This is the best knife under $1000 hands down. I have not sharpened it yet and am extremely excited to see exactly how sharp I can get it.

It combines an 800-grit side for edge setting and sharpening and a 6000-grit side for final polishing and honing.

    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. Measures 185 x 63 x 25mm."|""|""|"

    Wery good stone. If you hold dear your knives and want to keep them sharp for every day use,you must have one. This one is good,for it has the coarse side and the fine side. And the price is cheap. Just remember to soak it well (15mins) before use.

    A good combo stone for the price,with a caveat: for best results,get an intermediate grit stone like the Bester 1200k or Naniwa Aotoshi 2000k to "bridge the gap between the 800k and 6000k surfaces on this stone.



    Also be aware that this combo stone is somewhat smaller and should be used with either the included base or a dedicated stone holder.

    Very very very easy to set up an use,the coarser side works well for very dull knives and for repair work,the finer side is great for quick resharpening and regular maintenance. I bought a cheap diamond plate for flattening the stone,from Chefknivestogo,which is a good companion piece.

    Great purchase as a beginner set,by the way.

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.

    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 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.

    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.

    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 handle is rosewood octagonal.

    This single-bevel knife is made specifically for left-handed users.

It has a ‘weapon’ look to it. And this knife is certainly a kitchen weapon of the highest order.

    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.

    Service was great as usual and the knife was wicked sharp OOTB... Only thing is that the blade was very unevenly ground. It dipped up in the middle preventing contact with the cutting board in that section of knife.

    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 is the only truly multipurpose traditional Japanese knife, and in Japan only the executive chef in the kitchen is allowed to use one. This 240mm knife blade slices, dices and minces quickly and efficiently, making it the knife you'll reach for again and again.

    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.

    decent made knife,no flaws,handle seems a bit small (more fit for a small hand). Knife is about 1 inch top to bottom,so feels in hand like a slicer (yanagi). good price for blue steel #2.

It is a classic sword shaped blade with a fairly flat edge and long sharp tip. This is a general purpose blade in Japan and as such can perfectly slice fish or process vegetables with equal ability.

    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.

He specializes in the production of high quality, traditional Japanese blades. In 1980, Echizen was the first production center for forged blades to be awarded the nationally recognized Traditional Craft Product accolade. Blades have been hand-forged there since the Muromachi period (1392-1573).

    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.

    The knife is finished with a nice rosewood octagonal handle with black pakka wood ferrule. Please note that 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.

They are now used more generally as well. These knives are made from high quality, high-carbon steel, in this case Aogami Blue #2. In order to retain their edge and add strength to the blade, they are constructed with a layer of softer iron on the outside of the core.

    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. It's not a flaw it's an aesthetic choice based on a traditional way of installing the handles. See photo #2 for a visual.

    Over all this is a wonderful yanagiba. out of the box it is really sharp but the blade road is on the rough side but a trip to the stones will fix that up. Minimal high and low spots,the handle is ok nothing special. Over all a really nice knife and the great shipping and service from Mark.

As with all the knives in this collection, the cutting edges are forged from Hitachi White Paper #1 steel, a high-carbon alloy that is very hard but not so brittle as one would expect. The outer layers of the blades are formed of many-layered Damascus steel, which is called ""Suminagashi"" in Japanese. The blades' hardness is 63-64 HRC. These knives are not stainless steel so care needs to be taken with cleaning and drying the knife after 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 word funayuki literally means “going on a boat”! These are extremely thin blades and in Japan, typically only executive chefs are permitted to use this style of knife because it can easily chip in less skilled hands.

    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.

    This funayuki really is like a scaled down version of a deba.

    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 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.

    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.

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. Expert sushi chefs can actually employ different cutting techniques to enhance the esthetics and flavors of each type of fish.

    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.

    This stone doesn’t need to be soaked before use,it works great as a splash and go. Don’t use the nagura to build a slurry,it’s there for cleaning up the stone,rinse the slurry off. This stone cuts amazingly fast for such a fine grit. It gives a mirror polish finer than most 10k stones. It’s a steal at twice the price. Now that I have used it,I can’t believe I lived without it for so long. This is the nicest finishing stone I have ever used. It’s got a great feel,nice and smooth,not too hard,not too soft.

    This is my first whet stone that I have purchased and it is everything I hoped it would be. I normally do not soak the stone prior to use rather splash it with water. However,it works great either way. Mirror finish on the blade and envious co-workers abound. Great purchase.

    I use this as my finishing stone after a Suehiro Rika 5000 grit water stone. It polishes up the edge very nicely with relatively little time. Would strongly recommend this as a finishing stone! You should flatten the stone after every use because the metal particles from the blade do accumulate on the surface of the stone.

    This is an excellent stone.Use after a good 6000 stone and(Do not soak)just splash and keep wet by wiping with fresh water frequently,it will give you a very quick mirror polish as good as or better than any 10-12000 grit stone.It is a pure bonus that it is large and inexpensive

    I’ve wanted to use this stone for a good while but always kept putting it off. Do I regret it. Wonderful stone for the price,easily worth twice the amount. Hard stone yet fast cutting,low water consumption (just splash and go). But I should note that while yes this stone will work as a 8k it will shine if used after 8 or 10K stones. The finish will be much better if you use it this way. Simply an awesome stone.

    The large size makes this a real bargin. I dont soak this stone,it just takes a splash and is ready to use. Doesnt clog or dry out and the feed back is very nice.

    This is a really nice stone for finishing a knife. I use it as a splash-n-go stone with a little more splash than my other splash-n-go stones. Great stone before going to the strop.



    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.

    This is a fantastic finishing stone. I use it after a 6000 grit Ohishi or 6000 Arashiyama. Depending on how much pressure I apply or how much mud I create,this stone can finish like an 8000 or 10000 grit stone. It’s a splash and go stone so it does not wear quickly. I also like that I can flip it and use the opposite side. I have an Imanishi 10000 and on some knives the Kitayama finishes better.

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.

Its tall height gives increased finger-to-board clearance while its shorter length makes it ideal for handling a wide variety of produce and proteins.

Kei Kobayashi is a young blacksmith who, until now, was mainly involved in knife sharpening and finishing. He's done some excellent knives for us over the past year and this is another beauty!

    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 love giving these young, and sometimes not so young, blacksmiths a path to show the world what wonderful things they can do with a piece of steel.

    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!

    The nakiri is a do-it-all vegetable cutting machine and is a wonderful all-around push cutter, slicer, and dicer that is becoming a popular 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.

    He uses a core of SG2 which is laminated with a soft stainless steel to protect and add strength and ductility to the harder core steel. The outer layer is treated to a fine hairline finish which contrasts beautifully with the polished SG2 edge. Knives made with SG2 have outstanding edge performance and toughness, together with an ability to take a super sharp edge.

    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.

It is also a good substitute for a yanagi when making sushi. They are similar to western slicers but usually have a thinner blade and harder steel. Sujihikis are also always double bevel, unlike the single ground yanagiba. The sujihiki is undoubtedly one of the most elegant of all the knife styles.

    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.

It is shorter in length than a gyuto and, combined with its tall blade height, creates a knife with extensive uses and appeal. Bunkas often replace short gyutos or santokus, 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.

    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.

This hotbed of knife makers is populated with some of the best craftsmen in the industry. We asked Tsukahara-san to make this line for us because of his abilities forging this very popular but sometimes difficult steel.

    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!

    Really enjoying this new knife. It is quite sharp and glides almost effortlessly through all the veg I could find in the kitchen. The only problem I have now is to figure out what I am going to do with everything I have already chopped up.

    This is a very good knife for the money. It is certainly not a cheap knife.



    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.

    I’ve bought this knife as a gift to myself for my birthday,and I can say that I’m really impressed!The F&F of the knife is very good,everything is well rounded and the patina that will form makes the knife still more beautiful! The OOTB sharp wasn’t actually great,but not a big deal,because the knife is very easy to sharpen (I’m still a noob) and the edge retention is out of this world. I recomend it to everyone that wants a really good wa-gyuto,but don’t have the budget to buy more traditional knifes( By the way,something better that this will cost at least 130 more dollars).



    Thank you Mark for the help and to make this knife possible!

    The Kohestu Aogami Super 270mm Gyoto is one fine blade. Its does exactly what Mark Richmond said it would. Its a prep workhorse and boy does it make me life easy. Ths aogami super metal did tarnish just as I was told it would,however I like the oxidation. Its a absolute joy to use in a professional kitchen. Holds a super fine edge for weeks. Its so elegant in function and form. I’d would buy again and again.

This result is a knife that is easy to care for, as only the edge will oxidize over time. Aogami Super is a really great steel to use in kitchen knives as it allows for a good edge establishment and also really good retention of that edge. It does not wear as quickly as many other steels so it is fairly easy to sharpen too.

    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.

    A nicely finished ho wood handle featuring a traditional octagonal shape means this knife is light and easy to hold with a great balance.

Aogami Super is a really great steel to use in kitchen knives as it allows for a good edge establishment and also really good retention of that edge. It does not wear as quickly as many other steels so it is fairly easy to sharpen too.

    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.

    A nicely finished ho wood handle featuring a traditional octagonal shape means this knife is light and easy to hold with a great balance.

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 Kohetsu AS nakiri is constructed from Aogami Super steel clad with a protective layer of stainless steel. Rockwell Hardness is 64 for these knives, and each batch of steel is tested for consistency. We have made these knives to maximize performance while minimizing unnecessary “bling” and its associated cost.

    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 (on a different blade).

    Kohetsu knives cut to the core of blade design and execution. Try one...we know you will agree.

It comes with a ho wood octagonal handle that, together with its 60/40 grind, make it suitable for both left- and right-handed users.

In Japanese, santoku means “knife of the three virtues.” This refers to its ability to perform the three acts of chopping, slicing, and dicing. Some chefs believe the santoku is more versatile than a nakiri, its only real competitor, in the home kitchen. The santoku has a relatively short blade, up to 200mm, and a rounded tip with a slight point. It is made with a two-sided, asymmetrical 60:40 grind which is ok for left or right-handed users.

    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.

    Really nice knife.

    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.

    This has a great profile.

    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’m a line cook and I’m using this knife for work. I’m very pleased with my purchase; it feels much less hefty than the Shuns my coworkers favor and I really like the shape of the blade itself. Superb edge. Only reason I give it 4 stars as opposed to five is that I think it’s possible there might be less blade friction if there was more polish on the SS cladding,but I’m sure that’s a modification that could be made after market.

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. 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.

    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.

The word Kohetsu roughly translates to “be happy” and we really think that is a perfect description for these well-made and keenly priced knives. They are made in Seki City by a small shop that designs and manufactures knives and specializes in finish sharpening.

    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.

    Please note that 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.

Other gyutos with these specifications and quality can cost twice as much. CKTG is the only place where you can purchase these high value, high performance Kohetsu knives.

    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.

The reason it's there is during the process of making bolster, the factory cuts the end, where contacts the mahogany scale, straight. While doing this, the blade itself has to be set not to move and the jig has a small projection or a dot to hold it firm & tight. Usually, they get polished out.

    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.

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.

    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 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.

    This line has taken us years to develop and refine and we think the efforts have paid off.

    Love this knife. The western handle fits my hand well and leaving off the bolster for economic reasons actually makes the blade a better tool. OOB sharpness is scary and the finish on the mirror edge is reminiscent of much higher priced knives. This quickly supplanted my Shun 8 inch chef as my go to prep knife. Excellent knife at an unbelievable price point. highly recommended.

    Was a little uncertain on this knife. Price and quality of steel seemed too go to be true. Fortunately my worry was quite unnecessary. The usual excellent service CKTG provides brought me my blade in no time. OOTB sharpness was outstanding (one of the best OOTB edges I’ve ever received) so i wasted no time putting it through it’s paces. Turned an onion into white rain with minimum pressure and worked through carrots with precision and safety. Love the pantene forming right up against the polished edge. Real pro look. At this price I had not expected a workhorse knife but low and behold it is! Great value,great service and a real pro knife ...I’ll be using the heck out of this tool for sure.

    As usual the customer service was excellent. The shipping was not only free but fast. The knife itself is a beautiful piece. I bought this as a gift for my brother and sister in law. After receiving it. I wanted to keep it. Extremely light! Laser Light! The FF is very good. OOTB sharpness is very good. Wish I had order two at this price point. Another great offering from CKTG.

    Another winner for sure. OOTB sharpness is top notch,simple design without flashy addons. I love the weight. Perfect for my aesthetic. Also,it’ll make it less likely to get stolen at work.



    CKTG had fantastic service and very quick shipping!

    My mom was looking to upgrade her kitchen knives so I thought the Kohetsu Blue#2 gyuto would be a nice upgrade from her Wustofs. The blade looked really nice on arrival. I recently used it at her house and was able to slice a tomato into 2mm slices from top to bottom with horizontal cuts and almost no help from a second hand to hold the tomato in place. Best thing is that the handle,other than lacking a bolster,is a dead ringer for the Wustof handle,so I was able to convince her to Put it into the Wusthof block rather than sticking it a drawer where it would risk damage.

    This knife is probably the best buy for the money on the website. What definitely caught my attention is that it has the blue #2 steel for such a low price. Blue #2 steel will hold an incredible edge. This knife cut through a bell pepper like the vegetable wasn’t even there. The knife also has a nice gradual taper from the cutting edge to the spine. If you’re looking for great value for your dollar,definitely check this knife out.



    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!

    This 240mm gyuto is a great cutter at a fantastic price. The larger than normal 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 even corrode, the addition of a 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 symmetrical grind 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 240mm Kohetsu gyuto.

    This knife hits the sweet spot for price and performance. The handle seemed bulky for an almost laser until using it...i find the handle to be quite comfortable in use. Slight blemish between core steel and stainless near the tip,but doesn’t effect performance. A must have at this price.

That’s the Kohetsu Blue #2 Gyuto 270mm in a nutshell.

    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.

The blades are made from a variety of top shelf steels in many shapes, styles, and finishes. One of our very favorite steels is Aogami, or Blue #2 high carbon steel. This very popular alloy has been developed by Hitachi Metals and is liked by many makers and users of fine kitchen utensils. Blue #2 does display a slightly lower wear resistance when compared to Aogami 1 steel, but at the specified hardness of 62 HRC, this is barely discernible. One great attribute of Blue #2 steel is that it is quick to sharpen. This good looking kiritsuke is a gateway knife into the world of Japanese carbon steel blades. The super slim and thin blade is covered with a layer of stainless steel to enhance the strength of the knife while providing extra corrosion protection.

    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.

The Kohetsu brand came about when we asked our blacksmith in Seki to make us a line of knives that would bring our customers top-flight cutting performance, using the best steels, impeccable heat treatments and nice, thin grinds. The result was a range of very different knives that all heed to these same principals.

    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. 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 line of knives features excellent heat treatments and very nice grinds. The gyuto listed here is made from Blue #2 high-carbon steel. Specifically developed for tools and knives, Blue #2 has a high wear resistance but low toughness. It is easy to sharpen, even at high hardness rates, while its edge-holding is outstanding. The inner core is clad in stainless steel, which will keep all but the mirror-finished edge from forming a patina while making daily maintenance a much more straightforward task.

    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.

Not only will they appeal to line cooks and other professionals but they make a great entry into the world of Blue #2 steel blades for home cooks too.

    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.

    This knife is thick and tall for a petty. However,I have no problems peeling daikon,cucumber,oranges,etc. OOTB sharpness is average but sharpens wonderfully and has goo grinds. The handle is the knifes only weak point. A versatile tool at a fair price.

A well-made, sharp, good-looking performer at a super reasonable price.

    The knife featured here 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 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.

    We have completed the package with a practical and strong octagonal handle made from walnut with a black pakka wood ferrule. 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.

This great-looking knife is fashioned from Hitachi Blue Paper steel #2. It is forged with stainless steel cladding to add stability to the blade and protect the inner core from corrosion. The construction is san-mai, so the cladding does not wrap over the spine. The stainless steel cladding has an unusual-looking nashiji (pear skin) finish applied to it. Please clean and dry the blade between uses to protect the core steel from corrosion.

    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.

Customarily it is associated with mid to high end products and prices. We are therefore really happy to be able to provide lovers of fine knives with a range of utensils made with this highly regarded steel, but at an affordable price.

    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. You will still need to take care of the edge and dry the knife after each use.

    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 special sized tall gyuto listed here is made from Blue #2 high carbon steel on the edge which was specifically developed for tools and knives. Blue #2 has a high wear resistance but since it's made from carbon steel it's easy to sharpen, even at high hardness rates, which in this case is HRC 62+-. The inner core is clad in stainless steel which will keep all but the polished edge from forming a patina while making daily maintenance a much more simple task.

    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 brand is split into 8 lines made up of various steels, styles, and forging techniques.

    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.

They have been created exclusively for CKTG.

    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.

It comes in at just under 240mm in length. It is a very light knife at just 6.3 ounces. The blade height is in the middle of the range of gyutos. The handle is made with dark gray pakka wood and has a black pakka wood ferrule for excellent looks and long-lasting durability. It feels and acts like a true laser. It really is a finely made knife in all regards.

    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.

    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.

It differs from a Western boning knife in its triangular shape and the fact that it is stiff with very little flex. The honesuki works very well for deboning poultry and typically has an asymmetrical edge. While it is called a boning knife, it 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.

    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.

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.

HAP40 is extremely tough, and so not as likely to chip along the edge as the steel used in traditional knives.

    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.

    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.

HAP40 is a wonderful steel for kitchen knives, especially when heat treated to 65-66 HRC. The heat treatment applied to Kohetsu blades is actually 65 HRC and is of notable quality. This combination results in a knife that takes a great edge and stays sharp for a long time.

    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.

In fact, it fulfills the primary knife role in many kitchens. It also deserves its name. Santoku, meaning “three virtues” in Japanese, is an all-purpose knife with a taller blade profile than a gyuto. Its three virtues are the knife’s ability to cut fish, meat, and vegetables. Santokus have flatter bellies than gyutos and are ideal for push-cutting or chopping. The profile makes them easy to sharpen too.

    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.

It is made from HAP40 steel which is a semi-stainless alloy. As it is not fully stainless, the edge might stain or patina over time. But this just adds another layer of character to this great looking knife. The inner core is covered with a softer stainless steel for added protection and strength. The HAP40 steel is hardened to 65 HRC which is very high.

    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.

    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.

    Excellent knife! I needed something my wife would not have to maintain like my carbon steel knives. The blade height is not high enough to keep my man knuckles off the cutting board,but fits her quite nicely. The edge is quite impressive out of the box slicing through newspaper as fast as you can push it with no hesitation and it falls right through food. I have been using it as a home cook for about a week with no noticeable drop in performance and no sharpening. It dropped one star because of the grind,it is not quite convex enough to prevent food from sticking to it. Well worth the money,buy it!

    Excellent knife,fit and finish is very good. The knife came sharp out of the box and holds its edge for a long time,thanks to the Hap40 steel. Performance is also very good,the knife is thin behind the edge and the grinds are good. A+ on this Gyuto,highly recommend.

    This is a great knife because it glides through hard veggies without effort. That is,of course,due mostly to the thinness of the blade. I haven’t used it long enough to saying anything about how well the steel stays sharp or how easy it is to sharpen. Mine is still wickedly sharp. It’s no secret that ultra hard particle steel knives will lose that insanely sharp edge somewhat quickly,but will hold a still very sharp edge for an equally insanely long time. This suits me just fine.



    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 powder metallurgy HSS steel HAP40 manufactured by Hitachi can be hardened up to between 64 and 68 Rockwell. We chose 65-66 HRC. It is a fine grained steel that takes a very sharp edge. But of greater note is its almost supernatural ability to hold that edge. No other steel on the CKTG site gets even close to HAP40 in terms of edge retention. We have just started working with this remarkable steel and so far have been blown away by its strengths and abilities.

    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. I shot a video of him sharpening these knives that you can view at the bottom of this page.

    This knife is just incredible I first ordered the nakiri version and the edge retention was just so phenomenal i just had to order the 240mm version,it lasted 3 weeks without having to hone it on my ceramic. In my opinion better than my $600 Takamura. This is the knife of the future guys. Even at rockwell 66 this knife doesn’t chip

    I’ve only had this one a week,but I’m already very impressed. I’ve banged it on the board a little and it is apparent that the edge on this knife just will not roll.



    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!

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 HSS steels, it is relatively easy to sharpen on normal stones and holds a really sharp edge even after prolonged use.

    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 is a fine grained steel that takes a very sharp edge. But of greater note is its almost supernatural ability to hold that edge. No other steel on the CKTG site gets even close to HAP40 in terms of edge retention. We have just started working with this remarkable steel and so far have been blown away by its strengths and abilities.

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.

    Got this knife yesterday and couldn’t wait to try it out. The cutting edge was very sharp at the toe and heal,but dull in the center of the blade. Upon close inspection I discovered that the cutting edge was concave in the center rather than convex or straight. After a couple of hours of reshaping and sharpening,the blade profile is now correct and the knife has taken an extremely fine edge. I put a 10 degree bevel on it and was surprised how easily it sharpens for such a hard steel.



    It really does fall through food. I would have given the knife five stars if I didn’t have to profile the blade.

    Just to echo what Ken said,the blade out-of-the-box on mine had a slight concavity to it in the middle (actually around 3/4ths of the way back on mine). I had no problem reshaping it rather quickly to make it flat with my Atoma 140 plate on my Edge Pro (this reprofiling took around 5 minutes). I also brought the bevel closer to a 50/50 grind,as the factory edge was very close to a chisel grind in fact,probably around 90/10. It’s now around 60/40 and I’ll bring it closer to 50/50 yet in future sharpenings but it’s already enough for there to be no issues with steering,etc.



    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.

Kohetsu HAP40 series knives are a new addition to the label that will appeal to the performance customer demanding unmatched edge retention.

    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.

    This is a great petty. I chose this knife because of the steel and I am so glad I did. OOTB it is razor sharp. I believe this one will take lots of use and hold an edge longer than most. I got this one to be a user and it so far has exceed at every task I have used it on. Would I buy it again .. simple answer is you bet worth every penny.

    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.

    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 stones, if not quite as easily as traditional steels. Knives made from HAP40 keep their sharpness 3 to 5 times longer than traditional knives. The alloy is extremely tough, and so not as likely to chip along the edge as many other steels used in traditional knives.

    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.

    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.

The combination of the 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.

    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 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.

This is one of the most popular alloys used for kitchen knives because of its inherent toughness and ease of sharpening characteristics. The steel is slightly less wear resistant than other steels but we specified a hardness of 62 HRC which alleviates this issue almost entirely.

    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.

We feature many different steels, techniques, and styles in this impressive range of Japanese kitchen cutlery. Each sub-brand is made by a different blacksmith, chosen for his particular abilities with the specified techniques and steels. Our newest line is named after the river that flows through the Niigata Prefecture, an area rich in sword and knife making tradition, and the place where these blades are made.

    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 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 created these knives to fill a need for easy to use and maintain kitchen knives that look great but are easy on the wallet.

    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.

    Excellent quality for the price point. I’ll probably send it in to replace the handle,however,the blade is exceptional,it’ll shaved arm hair OOTB. I’ve only had this piece for 2 weeks so I’m not sure how the edge will hold up. Overall I am extremely pleased with this Nakiri.

This well-known blade smith uses the ever popular VG-10 steel for these knives. It is easily the most used stainless alloy in the kitchen knife industry, and for good reason. 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.

    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.

It is used by many leading manufacturers including the “big boys” like Shun and Miyabi. It is fully stainless and thus really easy to maintain. Edge retention is of a high standard and it is well liked for its wear and corrosion resistance.

    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.

    We have furnished these knives with classic western style handles made from black pakka wood with a stainless steel ferrule and 3 stainless pins.

It is a very tough steel with some great characteristics. Among them are good edge retention and a high level of wear and corrosion resistance. The steel is specially designed for high-quality blades used in cutlery. VG-10 can be sharpened to a fine edge that is very durable and can be tempered to a hardness of RC 60 without becoming brittle.

    Kohetsu is one of our in-house brands and we have this line made by renowned blacksmith Tsukahara-San. He 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 a big knife! But not an unwieldy one. In fact, the very fine blade and thin profile go together to create a knife that is very dexetrous and easy to use. Of course, you will need a big cutting surface to get the best out of this size knife. Given that, it is a blade fit for almost all uses. Whether you are chopping or slicing, using a long knife is a wonderful experience. The fit and finish of the pakka wood handle, stainless bolster, and blade are exemplary. This is a lot of knife in all regards.

VG-5 is a highly-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 VG-10. VG-10 also contains cobalt, which is absent from VG-5.

    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!

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.

    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.

In the case of the VG-5 line of kitchen knives we believe we have met that goal. This line of tsuchime (which translates roughly to hammered in Japanese) knives has been created for pro cooks and home chefs looking for robust, good looking performers that sharpen easily. They use VG-5 steel as the core that is heat treated to 60 Rockwell.

    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 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. 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 full range of eight lines encompasses many different steels, techniques, and styles of blades. But they share one thing in common: they bring you the best cutting performance using the top steels on the market with impeccable heat treatment and nice, thin grinds at an affordable 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. Hand held 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 though herbs and other small items. A great looking black pakka wood Western-style handle and stainless steel bolster complete the package.

The brand encompasses several different lines featuring a variety of steel types. The VG-5 line is a fairly recent addition and is made using this easy to maintain stainless steel.

    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.

    These are not only fun to use knives but they are easy to maintain too.

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 VG-10.

    Our overriding aim here was to give you an excellent knife at a reasonable price and we think we've hit the mark with this beauty of a knife. The grinds are slightly asymmetrical and it can be easily sharpened evenly on each side. Out of the box, the cutting action is outstanding. Great performance and great looks, all at a great price!

The cladding is applied in the San Mai style. The FM sharpener then applies a stunning finish to the blade face that emphasizes the cladding line and enhances the overall look of the knife.

    The FM knives feature a slightly different design profile, including a much taller blade and thicker spine. These now have more of the feel of the older Fujiyamas. It also bears some lovely hand engraved kanji elements made by master engraver Mr. Kawamura.

    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.

If you like a laser, this is a knife that has to be tried and, probably, owned. It defines a class with its amazing grind, simple elegance, and extreme abilities.

    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

    Excellent knife. The wife with her tiny hands even has no trouble with this one. Razor sharp out of the box,and has held the edge very nicely so far. I would highly recommend this knife to anyone.

    I have a lot of Japanese knives and this is by far the most impressive cutter due to the geometry and edge,but mainly the geometry. Noticeably thinner than a Tadatsuna INOX with better edge retention. The geometry is superb and the fit and finish is excellent although I don’t find the handle all that attractive but the saya is great. The steel qualities are comparable to the Ichimonji TKC,although the HD steel seems to be finer grained like white steel and produces a very refined edge. The TKC tends to have a more toothy edge which makes it better for slicing beef. The HD is awesome for cutting vegetables like onions and carrots that cause other knives to wedge. The edge holding is good but not stellar if used on poly boards. It must be used with a light hand but touches up easily on a 5K stone and also responds well to steeling. All around great knife,really good as a line knife,but not quite a workhorse. Mine is sharpened 80/20 at about 10-12 degrees.

    Even expecting this to be thin and light,I was still in awe at just how light it really is. The 240 really feels like a 210. If you use a 240 regularly,maybe stepping to the 270 wouldn’t be a terrible idea. Many people talked of the handle being smallish. I find it very comfortable. I like the octagon/ round hybrid; and it seems a perfect size for the weight. Its actually about the same size as my 240 Takeda,which is a much larger knife. OOTB edge is good; not stellar. takes a little work to achieve a great edge,but does get exceedingly sharp. Have used it exclusively for several days on the line,and has maintianed it edge well,with occassional stropping only. The spine is nicely rounded,but not the choil,which is an easy fix. This knife has lived up to all my expectations 99.99% Thanks again,Mark! Great transaction as usual!

    This is one of the commonly hailed "laser" knives. Its a very thin chef’s knife. Superb fit and finish. Its comes very sharp but the edge is not a fine edge and you will not truly see the benefit of this superb knife unless you put this knife to some fine Japanese Waterstones. The geometry of this knife is very similar to a Suisin Honyaki and a Tadatsuna. This is a superb chef knife if you like em’ thin. Great buy for the money! The Saya it comes with is OK...about average as Japanese Saya’s go.

    My first laser,and now one of my favorite all-time knives. This knife will get screaming sharp,more so than anything I’ve used. The steel is very fine grained.



    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!

    The Konosuke HD 240mm wa-gyuto combines many positive features sought after in an ultra-thin chef knife.



    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).

    I’d been looking for months at all these thin blades,and couldn’t pull the trigger on any of them because of my uncertainties that they would hold up in a professional kitchen. This knife had many good reviews,and I’ve always been on to baby my knives somewhat anyways,so I took the plunge. First night with it at work,after using it through an 8 hour shift,I saw tomato relish on the list for the next morning. I stuck around and diced 2 cases of tomatoes in about 35 minutes with this bad boy,and I could still give my arm a decent shave after. Knife is very thin,and almost too light for my taste. It really feels like there’s nothing in my hand at all. My only complaint is that I went with the 240mm instead of the 270 :P

    This HD impresses me more than I thought. It’s just as light and sharpe as its White #2 steel cousin. I haven’t had to sharpen it yet,so I don’t know if it will be comparable to the White #2 steel version.

    Shipping was ridiculously fast,as always. Ordered on Monday,it was here on Wednesday. The knife: Ultra sharp,ultra thin. The first thing I cut with it was a Russet potato and it glided right through without any the usual "crack" you hear with other knives. I am using the OOTB edge so no experience with it on stones or with a different edge. The things stopping me from giving it five stars: It’s a bit too light. You’ll have to work the knife a little more,although the sharp edge definitely helps. Also,the blade is super thin so there is a slight slight amount of flex. I wouldn’t go smashing garlic with this thing,or any other action other than a cutting motion. It’s my go-to knife now.

    The Koon HD 240mm is a fantastic knife! I have been using it solely for over a month and so far its performance has been outstanding. It is very thin (although I was expecting thinner for some reason),very light,and nimble. Its edge retention is great and it is very easy to sharpen. It also feels really nice on the waterstones. The reason I am giving it a 4 star is because I think this knife is slightly on the light side for my style of cutting but that is rather very subjective. The handle feels great – I feel that it has more grip when wet compared to the treated ones. It is rather light for my liking. The knife is also blade heavy so maybe opting out for aftermarket handle could balance the knife perfectly and add some needed weight. For the ones that wonder the knife does come little on the short side ~ 235mm. I have been using 240s and the difference in length is not noticable. Bottom line is that this knife is an outstanding performer and great value for the money. Mark,as usual,is top notch.

    I thought I had a sharp knife. Then I got the Konosuke. Wow. And I must say Chefknivestogo.com provided excellent service.

    This knife cuts like a dream! It just slides right through all kinds of meats and veggies. My first laser,and my favorite knife,by far. Just a joy to use.

    Just got this knife today,it’s my first ever nice one. Although I can’t compare it to other japanese knives,the moderate amount of prep I did today was REALLY fun and the konosuke is probably 100,000 times better than the generic stainless I used to use. Get one or get a nicer one,and definitely get a saya.

    Wow,what a great knive! Due tue the thin blade it slides through the food. I did the tomato test after I had resharpened the knive with 1k,2k and 8k Stones it I needed only one half stroke without any force to cut it in the middle.

It is the laser by which most other lasers have been judged. It not only boasts the usual exemplary fit and finish common to all Konosuke high-end knives, but the beauty is more than skin deep.

    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.

If you like a laser, this is a knife that has to be tried and, probably, owned. It defines a class with its amazing grind, simple elegance, and extreme abilities.

    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.

    The physical attributes extend to its beauty and elegance, a look that is further heightened by the wonderful fit and finish and attention to detail. A handle made from one piece of laurel wood is a perfect balance in terms of looks and function. We really like this knife!

They have been making high-quality blades for over 80 years. During that time, they have earned an enviable reputation for quality and superb performance among many knife cognoscenti.

    Konosuke is one of our most popular manufacturers and the HD line is one of our biggest selling single lines. When they were first released, they would sell out within minutes of being put online!

    The HD steel is a semi-stainless steel that Konosuke heat treats to a hardness of about 61 Rockwell. This results in an easy-to-sharpen edge with an ability to maintain that edge even after long work sessions.

    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 very light, nimble knife is the epitome of a Konosuke blade. You owe it to yourself to try one!

    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!

Their reputation for fit and finish is equaled by the outstanding grinds and edges that the various blacksmiths give these much-loved blades. The owners of Konosuke have curated one of the finest lines of kitchen cutlery spanning the extremes of price and exclusivity, but without ever taking their eyes off the brand’s hallmark levels of quality in every regard.

    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!

These knives are perfect examples of why Konosuke is one of our most popular and sought-after brands.

    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.

This excitement is amplified when it is a new line that plays outside the normal Konosuke box. Unlike their other lines, the SKD blades are made in Sanjo City, which shows in the general shape and geometry when compared to their more usual Sakai models.

    SKD has a fine structure and good distribution of the elements, which in turn make 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 is often thought of as a stainless carbon steel in terms of its feel and ability to take an edge.

    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.

    One of the most outstanding aesthetic qualities of the blade is the hammered face and a wonderful grey colored kurouchi finish. 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.

    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.

Today, we are delighted to release our latest product in the MADEI series- the SUMIIRO.

    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!

They have been in business for over 80 years, and have earned an enviable reputation for quality and superb performance among chefs, knife lovers, and collectors. The company employs many different blacksmiths and sharpeners to create the huge variety of products they offer, each being a master of both the materials they use and their required skill sets.

    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.

They are now improved in almost all aspects of construction, finish, and metallurgy. The basic semi stainless steel GS core is now heat treated to a higher HRC rating of 61-62. The grinds have been made smoother and the overall fit and finish taken to a new level. As before, the core is clad with a softer stainless layer which protects and strengthens the blade. It also makes for much easier maintenance.

    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.

Their impressive line of knives encompasses a wide variety of materials and finishes. They construct their knives from some of the best steels available and use blacksmiths that have attained legendary status to craft these fine implements.

    The new Sanjo YS line of kitchen knives is a wonderful addition to their canon. Boasting a core of “secret” semi stainless steel, which is very similar to their highly regarded HD2 knives, the blades are hammer forged san-mai constructions with a stainless steel cladding. The core steel is hardened to a high rate of 63-64HRC. 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, most unusual for a Konosuke, and the height is well proportioned, coming in at 46mm. Grinds and edge geometry are typical Konosuke: first class! The overall balance of the knife is also really well conceived with the use of a gorgeous handle made by Khii Studio from enju and maguro woods.

They never disappoint in any respect be it design, materials, or fit and finish. And so it is with this stunning new knife that stands at the core of the Sanjo YS line.

    The new YS gyuto is a semi stainless steel construction clad in a full stainless layer. Konosuke does not publicize the type of steel used but it is very similar to their ubiquitous HD2. It is a semi stainless steel so you will see some patina over time. In this case it should further enhance the stunning look of the blade. We love the way that the kurouchi tsuchime finish of the cladding fades into the perfectly executed satin lower blade road, which in turn reveals the polished hagane and beautiful shinogi.

    As the knife is made in Sanjo, the length matches the advertised number more than Sakai knives. In fact it comes in at just over the 240mm spec. The blade height is well proportioned to the length and it should appeal to most users. The edge geometry is standard Konosuke fare. In other words, superb!

    Rounding out this great package is an octagonal Khii Studio handle made from enju and maguro woods. This not only perfectly matches the blade in aesthetic terms, but it also results in a knife that has a balance and feel that is as good as it gets.

They are an unusual knife in the West but a staple in most Japanese kitchens. Their prime task is to chop vegetables (nakiri means “greens” in Japanese) but they are also a good tool for many other cutting tasks around the kitchen. They differ from the deba in their shape, as they have a straight blade edge suitable for cutting all the way to the cutting board without the need for a horizontal pull or push. They are also much thinner than the deba.

    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.

Santoku means “three virtues” in Japanese. This refers to the 3 cutting styles this knife is designed to perform: slicing, dicing, and mincing. The blade has a wide sheep’s foot profile with a flat edge that curves to the tip. This knife is much lighter, shorter and thinner than its Western counterpart.

    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 edge profile is fairly flat with some nice curvature toward the tip. The knife is beautifully thin behind the edge, and as with all of his knives, edge sharpness out of the box is stellar.

    These stunning knives are a wonderful addition to his line-up, and we believe they will become some of his most popular.

We are very pleased that he did not!

    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 Gyuto 240mm are 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.

Now he brings another revolutionary look to kitchen cutlery with these amazing looking Fujin knives.

    Kurosaki is particularly adept in his treatment of select steels. In the case of the Fujin series he chooses to work with Aogami Super and has done a remarkable job with this alloy. The knife comes with a nice, rosewood octagonal handle.

He began his blacksmith work in 2002 when he started working in Kanehiro-uchi-hamono. He claims he was not a natural blacksmith from the beginning and wanted to quit many times. We are very pleased that he did not!

    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 VG-10 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.

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. Since banno bunkas have fairly flat profiles they are most adept at push cutting and chopping rather than rock chopping.

    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.

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.

It is a multipurpose blade with unmatched versatility. 210s are perfectly at home rocking, chopping, or slicing, whether through vegetables, tubers, or proteins. They are the perfect size for those who want the standard kitchen knife profile but don't want the extra length of a 240mm or 270mm.

    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.

He has created some of the most stunning designs since starting his own line of kitchen cutlery. He combines great steels, wonderful construction techniques, beautiful profiles, and his signature patterns to make some of the most outstanding looking and performing knives we carry.

    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. It is named after the god of thunder, and with the driving rain look of the blade face it is aptly labelled.

    As with all of his blades, fit and finish are of the highest quality. His profiles and grinds are of equal caliber, resulting in a knife that come out of the box with a great edge and one that will look good and perform well for many years to come.

    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.

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. Just one look at the choil photograph reveals the amazing craftsmanship and design abilities of this talented blacksmith.

    The new Senko line of knives does not sway from this tradition but, as with his other lines, it comes with a unique and stylish look. The hammer marks of this design resemble mini triangles and together with the fairly high polish give the upper surface a wonderful sparkle in the light.

    Kurosaki-san has used SG2 powdered metallurgical stainless steel as the core steel. This is covered, san-mai style, with a 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.

    A really nice octagonal handle made of rosewood with a pakka wood ferrule echoes the fine fit and finish of the blade and completes a well made, great performing kitchen knife package.

Yu Kurosaki began work as a smith with the Kanehiro Uchi Hamono and, along with his brother, trained under famed blacksmith Hiroshi Kato. Over the past few years he has taken his company to new heights with a slow but steady introduction of many wonderful kitchen knife lines.

    The Kurosaki Senko SG2 Gyuto 240mm 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 about 56mm pairs perfectly with an edge length on the long side of 240mm. The first third of the edge is flat, transforming into a slight belly which will allow for some rocking. The balance is in line with a normal pinch grip point and the over all weight is on the lighter side of 240 gyutos.

    As with all Kurosaki knives, the Senko is graced with a perfect fit and finish from the super fine tip to the lovely handle. The Senko boasts yet another unique Kurosaki hammered finish, this time made up of tiny triangular marks that when polished reflect the light in a beautiful and fascinating way.

    We think this knife is a perfect balance of form and function, at a most reasonable price especially given the high levels of aesthetic finish and beautiful grinds. Highly recommended.

Kurosaki-san is a young blacksmith from Echizen who is making great blades for us. He began his blacksmith work in 2002 when he started working in Kanehiro-uchi-hamono. He claims he was not a natural blacksmith from the beginning and wanted to quit many times. We are very pleased that he continued!

    Here is the 240mm sujihiki and it has a really nice profile with grinds that are outstanding and super sharp edges out of the box. SG2 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.

    This knife is quite thin, especially behind the edge, slightly tall, and of average weight. There is nothing average about its performance or looks, however. You simply have to see and hold this exquisite instrument to truly appreciate the many wonderful attributes that Kurosaki has built into this fine knife.

    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.

Fashioned from the ever popular R2 stainless steel, these beautiful blades are a joy to use and behold. The stainless cladding on them is simply outstanding.

    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 minimum as the knife is full stainless. The profile is quite flat in the belly with a nice gentle curve up to the very finely crafted tip. Overall the knife runs in the middle of the 210mm gyuto pack. 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.

He left school at 16 and originally went to work in the automotive industry. However, since his childhood he was fascinated by the art of forging, knives in particular. When a position opened for a junior apprentice with a nokaji of great reputation, Kato-san, he jumped at the chance and joined this outstanding blacksmith at the age of 17. He spent 15 years with Kato-san, then 8 years with Anryu-san, Living Treasure of Japan. For the last 5 years he has been the Senior teacher at the Takefu Knife Village Association (TKV) School of Knife Making. He is the youngest blacksmith to be granted the title of Master Nokaji by TKV.

    We are currently offering 2 lines of beautiful knives from master blade smith Yu Kurosaki using R2 powdered steel. The Kurosaki R2 wa-petty is a beautifully crafted knife from the master blacksmith. R2 steel is also known as SG-2 and it is a highly regarded alloy for making fine kitchen blades. The core steel is covered with a stainless steel in a san-mai construction. The stunning finish is hard to capture in photographs.

    The knife is laser thin behind the edge and has a balance and lightness that is hard to describe. It comes with a traditional style octagonal rosewood handle. You really need to try this knife to get a feel for its outstanding attributes.

Sujihikis come in a variety of lengths ranging from 180mm all the way to 300mm and beyond. This 270mm blade is right at the sweet spot: long enough for single action slicing yet compact enough for kitchens with limited space availability.

    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.

    This is a great ceramic rod. I use it almost daily to keep my edges up to par. I was worried about packing a ceramic rod in my knife bag until I got this one. I have been carrying it in my knife bag now for about a year and it shows no sign of breakage. This is a great product.

    This ceramic rod corrects all the other minor issues I had with the first version of the ceramic rod (i.e. breakage,coloring,etc.) I’ve used it for a few weeks now and the grooves on the side make honing my knives very easy! If you’re in the market for a ceramic rod,buy this one - you won’t regret it! Thank you,Mark for all your great recommendations and help in acquiring such awesome tools!!!

    Excellent value for money steel. This steel alone will cover all your needs. Has 2 zones for honing - aggressive and smooth,so you get 2 in one. Also being ceramic it is also well suited to Japanese knives. I think this steel could be improved with 2 changes. It should be a bit longer at say 12 inches. Also I don’t care for the rubber end. For those who hone with the steel horizontal,you may find that the rubber end just gets in the way.

    This is a wonderful hone. I really like that it has a coarser side for knives that haven’t been kept up. It really makes keeping edges sharp. I would highly recommend this as a stand alone or to compliment a standard steel.

    I love the two sides for honing on this rod.

    Keeps my knives scary sharp between stone sharpening,and does it’s job.



    Well built and worth every penny.

    This honing rod is just a great product. It is solidly constructed,and the two-surface design is both clever and very effective. Until now I have used a Global ceramic rod,but I prefer the feel and performance of the MAC.

    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.

    One major problem...

    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.

MAC knives from Japan are well known for their value and overall quality of construction. The MAC Knife Chef Series of cutlery is a value-priced line made for a variety of tasks and users. It features the same molybdenum alloy as the original MAC series of knives. Like their higher priced siblings, they also carry a 25-year limited warranty from the manufacturer.

    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.

    I’m increasingly skeptical of the value of a Santoku,particularly if you have a large kitchen. That said,this is my wife’s favorite knife. Fit and finish are really nice. The blade is about 2 mm thick at the bolster. It stays sharp for-bloody-ever. When it does dull,it’s super-easy to resharpen either on oil or waterstones. Be aware,though. The scalloped sides do not keep things from sticking. Look nice,though

    I am a professional chef and this knife holds up to everyday use. I have a forschner diamond steel I use every day and a wet stone once a week. This knife holds an incredibly sharp edge and is easy to sharpen. It does not have the fashionable appeal of a shun or other Damascus blade but is just as sharper or sharper (assuming you take good care of it. Great knife,great value.

    It came dull out of the box,which is surprising for MAC. F&F was poor,with noticeable gaps where the wood meets the metal tang. Handle and profile of the knife don’t work well for my large hands,leaving too much distance between the knife and the food. The heel of the knife is too thick,which is also counterproductive for me.



    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)

    This a Great Paring knife,I had originally purchased a Tojiro paring Knife but I found that its blade (Even Though Its Sharp)is a little thick on the top which makes it extremely difficult to cut through vegetables like Potatoes and Carrots,but the MAC glides rite through them.

    I love this little paring knife. It just fits the hand so nicely. Out of box sharpness is excellent. Great balance and blade profile. I find that 3.5 inches is the sweet spot for me on a paring knife and this falls just short of that. I have two paring knives in my block. This one and a Shun. I much prefer this over the Shun.

    One of the best values in 8" chef’s knives out there. If I had $100 and needed a chef’s knife in this length,this is the one I’d get every time. Mac handles run smaller and fit both my and my wife’s hands well. I like the thin blade geometry (2mm at the bolster) and the blade is sharp Out of the box and stays that way for a long time. The dimples do nothing,but they look nice.

    I have fancier knives but this is the one I use 95 percent of the time.



    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.

    The knife was purchased for a wedding present so I didn’t use the knife. I couldn’t help taking it out of the box to inspect it and see how it felt in my hand. If I didn’t have a extensive set of Wustoff classics and looking for a Takeda soon down the road I wouldn’t give it a second thought as a personal purchase. What I can say however is that the service and delivery provided by Mark of Chefknivestogo was,as always,first class. I have corresponded with Mark regarding questions about sharpening stones,various knife products and Mark has always responded promptly and in a courteous,professional manner. I wouldn’t purchase a knife anywhere else other than from Mark at Chefknivestogo. Thanks Mark.

    I recently purchased a MAC Professional Series 7” filet knife and wanted to write a review since there is nothing on the web about it. This is my seventh MAC,however I also have Shun,Moritaka,Takeda and Forschner. I think I have around 30 high-endish knives. I love my true Japanese Kuro-uchi knives but cutting through acidic foods (tomatoes and citrus fruits) leave the blade stained and uneven in color from base to tip. It does not effect the cutting ability but it just looks ugly. So I usually grab my Mac’s for those jobs. Also,I rarely use my large knives (>7”) unless it’s a slicer. Even my $200 MAC 10” Chef knife gets little use.



    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.

    When the knife arrived,the sharpness was acceptable. It certainly was not this OOTB razor that many claim MAC’s are. The knife has a fantistic feel in the hand. Very no fatigue when using at all. QC of craftmanship is good,not great. Overall,I would recommend this knife. I do believe that there are better values than MAC blade wise. Handle wise,this is as good as it gets for me. I deduct 1/2 star for value and QC.

    Even though the US market is now flooded with Japanese kitchen knives,the MAC pro will hold it’s ground. Very good ss blade. It’s a real kitchen knife. It is not a whippy laser nor a heavy German style knife. The 8.5 MAC pro has perfect balance. I have NEVER used a knife that has this good of a feel in my hand. I would not recommend the 8.5 or the 9.5 for a womens hand. This is a different handle than the 8" Mighty. Craftmanship is very good,not perfect. Blade geometry suits me very well. I would say a solid 4.5 stars. I will add a final note; many people comment how easy the MAC pro’s are to sharpen,I did not find that to be the case. I put a super nice polished edge on it,but it’s harder steel than I would have thought. Still highly recommended!

    This gyuto was my entrance into Japanese knives and I still use it almost every day.



    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.

    This is the best mass produced knife I own - my first foray into Japanese knives,and still one of the favorites in my ever growing collection.



    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.

    This has become my main go-to knife in the kitchen. Coming from a forged German chef’s knife,the MAC is far more nimble and versatile. It’s a perfect meld of Western and Japanese design. The bolsterless blade produces a much more comfortable pinch grip. Also,since there’s no bolster to push your fingers back,the 9.5" is MUCH easier to control for fine work than even an 8" German blade. The length is a nice compromise for folks who find a 10" too long. It’s not a short knife by any stretch,but it’s a sensibly sized blade. Out of the box,it’s shaving sharp with a beautifully finished blade. An occasional touch-up on the MAC ceramic honing rod keeps it that way,even with hard professional use.

    This is an excellent knife. Very sharp out the box. The handle is very comfortable. The only quip I have is that the wood around the underbelly of the handle seemed to raise up a little so as not to be seamless after the first or second time I hand washed the knife (the knife was never submerged in water,only run underneath the tap for rinsing). Handle aside,I love the knife and it’s length. The length took some getting used to,but it’s wonderful once you make room for it.

    My first MAC,and it hopefully won’t be my last. The blade came incredibly sharp out of the box,and the blade retention is out of this world. I don’t baby it,but it absolutely doesn’t show. Don’t write it off as a knife for fruit and veg work,it works better at cleaning strip loins and skirt steaks than any boning knife I’ve ever used.

    I’m a professional cook and have had this knife for over a year now,and I can safely say that it was the best all around value in my knife bag. For around $50 this knife is razor sharp,holds a great edge,is easy to sharpen,and is very comfortable to use,not to mention quite durable. The 6" is the perfect size for finesse knife work,or for breaking down ducks,quail,etc. Essentially it can manage tasks that no paring knife could,yet will make your paring knife obsolete due to its small size. In my kitchen I use this knife more than my Misono chef’s knife...enough said.

Bread knives are adept at breaking down melons, pineapple, and other large fruit; they are great options as slicers for prep or service; the delicate skins of tomatoes are a breeze with a serrated bread knife; and of course, they are ideal when the occasion arises to slice bread. The MAC Superior bread knife has established itself as the standard against which all other bread knives are measured. The scalloped edges come sharp from the factory, MAC’s molybdenum vanadium steel holds that edge extremely well, and the thinness of the knife reduces resistance in the cut improving performance. The handle is ergonomically upswept to provide knuckle clearance and is made of durable, water resistant pakka wood scales. *Note: Our bread knife saya does not fit this knife.

    My first dedicated bread knife. This particular make and model is routinely recommended around the world. Books,web sites,you name it and this one knife gets called out. People will talk about getting a handful of knives that cost well over $200 each but finish the set with *this* one. I love mine and an happy every time I pick it up and use it. Cakes,breads,boneless meats......they all react well to this blade.



    I will give one or more for holiday gifts this year. It is a joy to use.

    A superb bread knife as I discovered whilst at work at the Sydney cricket ground.Had to make a ton of sandwiches for sale at the various retail outlets.Crisp baguettes with asst fillings were no match for the Mac.Am however waiting for an oppurtunity to use the mac on crisp puff pastry - That I reckon would be the ultimate test.

    This is by far the best bread knife I’ve ever used. Beats the Victorinox. I cut thick crust sourdough bread and this stands out as the quickest and the most precise. Can’t imagine a better knife.

    After reading many glowing reviews of this knife and wanting something better than the decent Forschner I had for the past 10 years I bit the bullet and got one. I was shocked at how much better the Mac is,smooth crumb free cuts everything I have found. Crusty artisan breads to supper soft white bread to sponge cake the cuts are always clean and smooth.

    I used the knife to cut a dozen loaves of bread the first time I used it. It took very little time to cut into slices. A couple of friends helping wanted to try it too. I don’t think they had ever experienced a knife that sharp. This was my second Mac knife.

    First let me make it clear that I am not a professional chef. I have recently started to make my own bread and felt the need for something better than the Walmart special that I was cutting it with. I was already familiar with the MAC 8" chef’s knife so had little trouble choosing their 10.5 inch (25cm) bread knife. This knife looks more like a sword! It is super sharp and makes slicing bread effortless. Edges of the cut bread look sharp and clean,unlike with my previous knives. It requires virtually no pressure to cut through a loaf. I also use it for slicing tomatoes and it makes achieving thin slices very simple. The only other thing I would say is that it is vital not to clean it in the dishwasher.

    Chef Knives to go were cheap and super fast with their shipping. I will be using them for future purchases.

    Simply put,it’s fantastic. It’s replacing a 12" Cutco,and a 12" Forschner Slicer. The slight concavity of the edge is great for letting me use the entire length of the blade without having my knuckles hit the cutting board.



    Great knife at a great price.

    A little pricey,but it is the best knife I’ve ever used for slicing bread. Really neat slices,the push cut is unusual but you get used to it,I just love sailing through a loaf of homemade sourdough (no matter how fresh,it never squashes) with just one or two pushes! none of this sawing rubbish =) - the length is great too,anything shorter is fairly useless for handling a respectable loaf.

    I love this bread knife. I use it for a lot of kitchen tasks,including slicing crusty baguettes,slicing cheeses,and pretty much any task that requires a long,razor sharp blade. A word of warning,though: the steel used for this knife will faintly rust and discolor in a matter of hours if kept in a magnetic blade guard. Not a fault of the blade,but at least worth mentioning!

Used it to bias slice Indiana duck breasts as well as rare teres major portions for steak frites. Well balanced and beautifully executed knife.

    Best santoku well under $100 period. Cooks illustrated top pick.

    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

    This has been a great knife. I’ve owned it for about 6 months now and use it almost daily in my home kitchen. I usually use it to slice vegetables and use another knife for meats but occasionally I will use this to butterfly shrimp.

    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.

Let's break down what each word means since it's a mouthful. Makoto Kurosaki is his name. He chose the name for his brand as Makoto because his brother uses Kurosaki. Sakura means Cherry Tree which is revered for it's beauty in Japan. If you ever travel to Japan in the spring you'll be amazed at the massive amount of blossoming cherry trees everywhere. Makoto san use cherry wood handles on his knives which inspired the name. Tsuchime means ""hammered"" and refers to the hammered cladding on the blade. Bunka is the profile of the knife. Phew!

    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.

Makoto san has come up with a very nice knife line here with the Sakura Tsuchime. Let's break down what each word means since it's a mouthful. Makoto Kurosaki is his name. He chose the name for his brand as Makoto because his brother uses Kurosaki. Sakura means Cherry Tree, which is revered for its beauty in Japan. If you ever travel to Japan in the spring, you'll be amazed at the massive amount of blossoming cherry trees everywhere. Makoto san use cherry wood handles on his knives, which inspired the name. Tsuchime means ""hammered"" and refers to the hammered cladding on the blade. Gyuto means ""cow sword"" in Japanese and is the shape of this knife. Phew!

    Makoto Kurosaki has used SG2 to make this excellent gyuto. 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 tough feel but can 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 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 gyuto 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.

Alongside his younger brother Yu, who eventually opened his own shop in Echizen, Makoto continues to collaborate on various projects, maintaining a strong connection with Kato-san. We are thrilled to partner with this incredibly talented blacksmith.

    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 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 made by master blacksmith Hiroshi Kato and features a beautiful cladding of stainless damascus steel with a look reminiscent of fog or mist.

    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.

This is a highly regarded steel in knife-making circles due to its toughness and ability to take a very sharp edge. The stainless steel is hardened to about 61-62 HRC and is then clad in a softer stainless alloy using a hammer forged san-mai technique. This adds to the overall strengthen of the blade and protects the VG-10 inner core. The VG-10 spine and edge are left exposed. The cladding is a damascus multi-layered steel which receives a unique finish reminiscent of fog or mist, thus the name Kiri, which means mist in Japanese.

    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.

    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.

    The Kiri grouping is made from the ever popular steel called VG-10. The stainless steel is hardened to about 61-62 HRC and is then clad in a softer stainless alloy to strengthen and protect the VG-10 inner core. This cladding is applied in the san-mai style, in which the VG-10 spine and edge are left exposed. The cladding is a damascus multi-layered steel which receives a unique finish reminiscent of fog or mist. This is where the knife gets its name of Kiri, which means mist in Japanese.

    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. Plus it looks great! Masakage is renowned for their outstanding grinds and excellent fit and finish which is very apparent on this fine knife.

    These are very easy to care for knives as both the hagane and jigane are fully stainless. The magnolia handle is matched with a red pakka wood ferrule which adds to the great appeal of this fun and functional kitchen knife.

    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!

    What a dream this knife is! Wonderfully crafted and functional blade. As you might expect,this knife has it’s limitations. It definetly excels at vegtable prep,but because of its length won’t be great for slicing or fabricating proteins. If you are looking for a more multipurpose knife,a gyuto is your best bet. Very pleased with the steel and would definetly recommend adding this knife to your collection!

They have earned an almost legendary status that comes from the combination of superior grinds, heat treatment, and fine fit and finish. Oh, and these babies cut! In fact this is a baby in the gyuto world coming in at just 180mm in length.

    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.

    First off,a few specks:



    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.

    Masakage Koishi gyuto 210mm

    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.

Blade lengths run just under 10 inches, and are large enough to handle large ingredients like heads of lettuce, but still deft enough to mince onions. The Koishi line is made from Aogami Super Steel that has been hardened to 63:65 Rockwell. This means that it will take a razor sharp edge and hold that edge for an impressively long time. The gently sloping belly of this blade makes it easy to use for both choppers and rockers. The Kurouchi finish lends a rusticity that makes the knife stand out amongst many shiny competitors. The knives come with a cherry wood wa (octagonal) handle with black ferrule for contrast.

    This is by far the sharpest thing I have ever held. It is very light and comfortable. The edge stays sharp even after cutting lemongrass for an hour straight. Very easy to sharpen as well.

    First week with this knife and it’s impressive. The lines and weight are great. Keeps a great edge. Out of the box sharpness is pretty good but a little fine tuning and it’s one of the sharpest I’ve seen. Would defiantly recommend this line of knife.

    My first stainless clad aogami knife and I love it so much I don’t think I can go back to full stainless. This knife is has a beautiful rustic finish,a razor sharp edge that cuts like butter and is really comfortable to use. The blade had a very slight bend in it that was easily fixed thanks to Mark’s advise. Apparently clad knives can bend because the steels settle at different rates. Mark sent me a link on how to fix it and also offered to fix it for me for free. Great experience and beautiful knife. Thanks Mark!

Their exceptional construction, grinds, and materials have resulted in a bit of a cult following among knife aficionados. And it’s no wonder: these are cutting and slicing stars. They have some of the best grinds and edges we have encountered and justifiably occupy the top spot in the Masakage range of Japanese knives.

    The Koishi line is constructed from Aogami Super High Carbon Steel. This is one of the kings of high carbon alloys and is revered for its toughness and ability to hold an extremely fine edge. The inner core of this knife is clad with a softer stainless layer 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.

    Bunkas are quite similar to santoku blades in that they have a very flat edge leading to a slightly curved belly and thin tip. The outstanding feature of the bunka is of course the reverse tanto-style tip that gives it that characteristic weapon like look.

    The well finished octagonal handles are made from cherry wood with pakka wood ferrules.

These blades are strikingly beautiful and take razor-sharp edges.

    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 knife looks like it means business - like an A-10 coming around for another gun run or a flight of Apaches popping up over the horizon - and it does mean business. Fit and finish are great,balance and feel are perfect,and it takes a hair-popping edge. The blade profile is incredible. Simply a great,great knife.

For nearly 60 years Kato-san has been has been perfecting his talents and skills using traditional methods. His skills and talents are blatantly obvious in this exceptional series of knives.

    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.

He makes various lines of knives under his own name as well as for the Masakage brand.

    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.

Over the years the cooperative has grown and is now one of the centers of knife making in Japan.

    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.

It has a stiff blade, unlike western boning knives, and a very pointed tip. Honesuki knives are usually small blades averaging about 150mm-160mm in length. Knives that are larger are called garasuki and they are also thicker and heavier overall.

    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.

This is a very popular stainless steel that has great edge-taking and -holding characteristics. The name is derived from the Japanese V-Kin 10 branding. Kin is Gold in Japanese and thus you get 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.

    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 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 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.

The core steel of White #2 is handled impeccably by the smith. A very refined edge is possible on this knife though, like most all Masakages, the edge the knife comes with is pretty darn sharp. The symmetrical convex grind and blade geometry on all of Kurosaki’s 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.

    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.

    Beautiful knife. Sharp as a razor out of the box. I did leave my roll in the trunk of my car on a stormy night and didn’t realize I had a leak so it got some rust. Very reactive. I just did a vinegar soak and baking soda paste wipe and it came out with a beautiful patina and is back to full form. Great knife. Favorite in my collection.

He works in the famous Takefu Knife Village in Echizen, which has been highly recognized for supplying excellent products for 700 years.

    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.

The treatment of the White #2 core steel is some of the best we have seen. The steel is a pleasure to sharpen, takes a silky edge, exhibits little to no chipping and has excellent retention. Some of the more beautiful knives on the site, Masakage Shimo blades clad the W#2 core with soft iron Damascus hammered to resemble frost patterns on windows during the winter.

    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.

    So far,this knife is fantastic. The best all around performer I own. Edge profile is utter perfection and the knife has a really good convex grind so nothing sticks to this puppy.

The handcrafted blade sports a core of White #2 steel treated supremely well. The edge is capable of acute angles and very high levels of refinement without becoming chippy or losing integrity. The core W#2 wears an iron Damascus cladding that is fairly reactive. Both the core and cladding should be kept dry and acidic ingredients should be wiped off often during early use. Once a patina forms, this will become less necessary.

    Kurosaki is one of our favorite young knife makers, producing phenomenal blades from his workshop in Takefu Village. The Shimo line sports Magnolia wood handles with Pakka wood ferrules. Fit and finish is good and the edge profile on these knives is fairly flat. 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.

    In 270mm format, the weight of the knife is still quite accessible and the blade remains incredibly nimble. The additional cutting power makes this a favorite format with pro cooks.

Working out of Takefu Village, Kurosaki has gained a reputation for crafting knives that are great all-around performers, exhibiting wonderfully convex geometrics through the middle of the blade, exceptionally thin grinds behind the edge and world class treatments of his chosen steels. In the case of the Shimo, Shirogami #2 is deployed as the knives’ core steel. The rendering of this popular alloy is outstanding. It begs for high levels of refinement, is easy to sharpen, can handle acute angles, and exhibits excellent retention.

    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.

    I received my nakiri today and i have to say that I am very impressed with it. It was very sharp out of the box and glided through all my ingredients with very little effort. It is paper thin behind the edge,light as a feather with the best finish sharpening job I have seen so far. I would say that in terms of sharpness and how light it feels,it is on the same realm with takeda; I own a takeda gyuto 240. With the design and the feel and the steel used(W2),even though my favorite is Aogami super,I would consider this a masterpiece of a blade worth every penny.

    Just reporting back on my Nakiri after almost a year using it. By far the best Nakiri I have ever owned. It is a true laser in every aspect of what that word truly means. It drops through every ingredient with ease. There is absolutely no wedging on any ingredient no matter how dense. That is what I call a true laser. In my humble opinion,it is slightly better than the takeda knives in terms of food penetration; And this coming from a true takeda fan with 2 of his knives in my arsenal. Anyone eyeing the masakage line should get their feet wet with the shimo line. I guarantee,you would not be disappointed.

    Very beautiful patterning,extremely thin behind edge hence effortless cutting. Achieves razor edge,but does not hold it as long as blue steels. However,I use full shinogi depth as bevel on l/h side (a sort of flat back)and about 30 degree microbevel on open side. Edge lasts 4 or 5 times longer. Readily restored to razor sharpness with a couple of light strokes from a polished steel. I now do this on all kitchen knives.

    There was no surprise with this knife. It is very sharp,well-finished,ergonomically and aesthetically pleasing,and very light weight. The finish releases food,including potatoes,very well. This is now my go-to knife and hard to imagine a better one.

    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.

    Bought this knife based on the recommendations in the forum. As usual,the knife was delivered very promptly - Thanks Mark!! OOTB sharpness was good,though not fantastic - certainly sharp enough to use effectively and efficiently. Three weeks later and the edge is still there,mostly. Very impressive. F&F is great and the aesthetics are better than the picture shows. Highly recommended!!!

His abilities with a wide variety of steels and finishes is quite amazing as witnessed in this lovely santoku. Masakage Shimo blades are made with White #2 steel as the core. They are then clad with a soft iron Damascus hammered to resemble frost patterns on windows during the winter. It should be noted that both the core steel and the cladding are reactive. In fact, the iron cladding on these blades is some of the more reactive on our site. These knives should be kept dry and wiped clean even during use.

    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.

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.

    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 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.

    What can I say? I LOVE this knife! Bought it about 10 months ago after meticulous research on CKTG and time has proven that I chose wisely.

    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.

    After careful review of many knives,I chose this one as my first from CKTG.

    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 !

    Well my first of the Masakage series and I’m very impressed. Sharp right out of the box and thin behind the edge and nice and light. The handle is comfortable and ever at 210mm (more like 215mm it’s good enough to use in a pro kitchen all day. White 2 is very quick to sharpen while the stainless steel jacket makes care minimal. And the usual great service by Mark.

    Could not be happier with this purchase. I dug deep in my pockets for this piece but it is definitely worth every penny.



    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!

    Awesome knife - our first Japanese knife,love the WA handle. One reviewer was disappointed with the finish on the handle - my perception as a part time woodworker - it has fine grit in the finish intentionally to aid grip - it is NOT poor quality - the very smooth red band supports that theory. Love the Yuki!

    This was my first Japanese knife purchase and I found the videos and the reviews/recommendations very helpful with narrowing down the choices and making the selection. I had been using a 10" Henckel’s and was looking forward to the the different handle type and forward balance point,the grind,along with the lighter weight. When I received and used the new knife,it was all I had expected and more. It felt so much more natural to use for various cuts and the weight was a welcome change. The fit and finish were excellent.The downside was gaining the awareness of what’s available and what a difference it can make,for a small cost….

    This knife deserves 5 stars,it’s a beauty and the OOTB is good. The only reason I am giving it 4 stars is that I didn’t feel the handle had a very good finish. Fit was fun and the pakka wood is great. The magnolia on the other hand could use to be sanded at the very least,it has a bit of a rough feel. I plan to use some high grit to smooth it a bit however I probably will not seal it because it doesn’t feel as if they had and it will feel great once finish sanded.



    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.

    This Honesuki rocks ass! Mark recommended this one and now I see why. I was looking for a better alternative to the Tojiro DP Honesuki,but with the same level or durability. This knife crushes the Tojiro. It’s similar in comparison to a .22 caliber rifle and a .357 magnum.

    This knife has become one of my all-time favorites. I find myself looking for excuses to use it :-)



    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!

    I got this knife Christmas of ’13. All I can say is impressive! In my kitchen at work I butcher different proteins daily and this is my go to blade. Nothing stands a chance,filet mignon,chickens,heck I went through 20 rabbits with it a few days ago. The precision tip and thickness is a must for anything with a bone. It also has a larger handle which gives a nice grip while working on tougher meats. Worth the money and more!

    The Masakage Yuki 120mm petty has really good edge retention,the white #2 gets really sharp,easily takes an edge,easy to maintain because of the cladding,a little thick for a petty above the shinogi line so its a bit stiff and wedges just a bit but thin enough behind the edge to do really thin cuts. Really love the height of the blade plenty of knuckle clearance. feels good in the hand. absolutely love this knife.

This well-respected blade master is one of the founders of the Takefu Knife Village cooperative.

    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 comfortable Duracon resin handles are anti-bacterial and easy to the touch. They endow these knives with a light and balanced feel.

    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.

    Masamoto chef knife has a great balance and good sharp edge. The only down side is the handle which I think is poorly made and finished. I can see grind marks on the sides and bottom of the handle.

    The Japanese,of japanese knives. Perfect size,great balance and ergonomics,this is everything you need in a professional knife. Pretty much on par with the greatest,if not THE greatest gyuto you can ever own. Fast shipping( only took two days). Purchased the universal saya to go with it,fits perfectly! CKTG has most certainly the best customer service,responded well to all my questions with quick reply. I most certainly look forward to my next purchase at this site.

    Thanks Mark!

The body of the blade has a wide rounded shape and a comfortable handle even for those with large hands. This line is often praised for having Masamoto’s famous edge and balance without being too heavy or too light.

    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.

    I am a weekend home cook. I have always used dept store knives,so this was a huge upgrade. For me this knife is great. I am not very good with longer knives so this is pretty much my chef’s knife for now. It came very sharp and the balance is perfect.

    Great knife. Gets very sharp and retains that edge for a decent time in a pro kitchen. Fit and finish is better than average but not flawless.



    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...

    Like it’s bigger brother the 210mm chef’s knife this utility knife is a gem. Perfect for small tasks where a bit more percision is needed this is almost perfect. it’s thin blade makes short work of delicate tasks.

    The handle is a little small for my hands but other than that it is great

We have just started stocking these knives and we could not be more pleased with the price/performance quotient they deliver.

    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!

Masutani is a small blacksmith shop located in Echizen in the Fukui Prefecture. They are a new addition to our ever growing catalog of kitchen knives and they are gaining favorable reviews from our customers. This great looking gyuto is a perfect knife for home cooks or pro chefs seeking a blade that is easy to use and maintain.

    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.

We get particularly excited about knives that break the price performance barriers and provide a high level of quality.

    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 either 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.

Masutani knives are made using some of the very best stainless steel and damascus steel combinations. They are laser cut from pre forged sheets. We are most impressed with the well-executed grinds and edges. The blade is very easy to maintain on a daily basis and it will sharpen up with relative ease. VG10 holds its edge really well, so this will not be a requirement needing attention very often.

    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.

VG10 is celebrated for its high carbon content, ensuring both longevity and remarkable edge retention for culinary excellence. Encased in a softer stainless steel in the unique san-mai style, the knife receives an exquisite finish. A meticulously ground deep blade path reveals the VG10 steel edge, giving it an enchanting hamon-like allure.

    We were taken aback by the performance this affordably-priced knife delivers. Although it might benefit from an initial sharpening to unlock its true prowess, it's poised to rival knives that come with double its price tag. It's an ideal pick for novices eager to embrace the simplicity of a Japanese knife or a cherished gift for budding chefs and home cooks.

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!

Amongst these are the many fans of the profile and performance characteristics of the classic Sabatier chef knife. The shape has been mimicked by many makers resulting in some particular iterations receiving unmitigated praise. As a result of this demand we asked one of our favorite blacksmiths, Tanaka-san, to realize his interpretation of this ubiquitous blade.

    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.

    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.

They combine beautiful aesthetics with fine craftsmanship and outstanding performance. Katsuto Tanaka is the principal blacksmith responsible for hand-forging these lovely blades in his famed shop located in the town of Matsubara in the city of Omura, Nagasaki Prefecture.

    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. The heft and strength are confidence inspiring. It comes with a very nice walnut octagonal handle.

The Matsubara company has been making knives and tools for many centuries, and their rich history translated into some finely crafted knives that are highly regarded around the world.

    This 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 Tanaka-san clads the blade in a layer of stainless steel so that only the mirror finished edge will be reactive. The nashiji is a hammer applied finish, not pressed, that helps with food release while adding a great look to this finely crafted blade.

    This knife is mated to a lovely octagonal handle with a burnt Urushi finish using oak wood. It's a striking combination.

This core steel is laminated in the san-mai style with softer stainless steel, giving a lovely nashiji (pear skin) finish. This adds strength, reduces mass, and makes daily maintenance a breeze.

    Looking like the offspring of an encounter between a cleaver and bunka, this unique knife is a wonderful tool for almost every cutting and chopping duty in the kitchen. It is thin like a bunka, but it is tall like a cleaver and great for tall ingredients; big hands or a simple desire for a taller blade are addressed with this versatile shape.

    We are always on the lookout for unusual knives of all types and the Matsubara Blue #2 Nashiji Kiri Cleaver certainly ticks all the unique boxes in our opinion. This was created as a result of our customer comments, so we hope it hits a chord with you.

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.

    The Blue #2 core steel is a very popular carbon material that has the same carbon content as white steel #2, but with additional elements chromium and tungsten. With these additional ingredients, Blue #2 blades often display better edge retention and durability. The outer stainless steel cladding aids in rust prevention and ease of general maintenance.

    Fourth generation blacksmith Katsuto Tanaka is the principal blacksmith at Tanaka Kama Kogyo, a famed shop in the town of Matsubara in the city of Omura, Nagasaki Prefecture. We're big fans of Tanaka San's work. This hand crafted knife is truly a family affair with mother, son, grandson, and wife assisting Mr. Tanaka when making these knives.

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. Unlike many of the breed, the Matsubara Blue #2 Nashiji Kiritsuke is a double bevel design so users whether right- or left-handed will be able to enjoy the virtues of the incredibly useful and fun to use knife.

    This 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 Tanaka-san clads the blade in a layer of stainless steel so that only the mirror finished edge will be reactive. The nashiji is a hand applied finish that helps with food release while adding a great look to this finely crafted blade. The hammer marks you see on these blades are made in the forging process and not stamped with a press.

They have their origins in a blacksmithing tradition that came to the town with refugees from the Battle of Dannoura, over 800 years ago. The same age-old techniques are being used today in the production of knives and tools bearing this historic name.

    The nakiri featured here is constructed from Aogami 2 carbon steel. The alloy is known for its outstanding edge life and toughness. The core steel is covered san-mai style with soft stainless steel which is given a lovely nashiji (pear skin) finish. This adds strength, reduces mass, and makes maintenance so much easier.

    The growing popularity of nakiri knives in the West is a testament to their outstanding abilities and great looks. They are the ultimate vegetable cutters. Boasting a very flat profile and tall blade height, they are perfect for push cutting and chopping. This is a fairly middle-of-the-road blade in terms of size and weight so it should please most users.

    Mated to a nice walnut octagonal handle, this is a knife to both use and admire.

    This line of knives from Matsubara has become one of our favorites on the site in a short amount of time. They combine beautiful aesthetics with fine craftsmanship and outstanding performance. Katsuto Tanaka is the principal blacksmith responsible for hand-forging these lovely blades in his famed shop located in the town of Matsubara in the city of Omura, Nagasaki Prefecture.

    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 Sujihiki 240mm 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 240mm Kiritsuke. 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 octagonal handle.

He then forge-welds a layer of soft stainless steel to the core using the san-mai method of awasi (cladding).

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.

    Tall petties are fun and useful knives to have around the kitchen. They can tackle a multitude of tasks due to their short length and taller than usual blade height. Garnishes, filleting proteins, and chopping herbs and smaller ingredients are all within the scope of this versatile knife.

They have their origins in a blacksmithing tradition that came to the town with refugees from the Battle of Dannoura, over 800 years ago.

    Tanaka-san hand forges all of 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 not only protects the inner core of Aogami 2 steel, but also adds a level of dampening to the blade which reduces the chances of fractures while making the blade easier to maintain.

    Even though the cladding is stainless, these knives should be kept clean and dry to avoid corrosion to the exposed core steel. The cladding receives a really lovely 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. This particular knife comes with a very nice custom octagonal handle pictured. Our Kiri cleaver saya does not fit this knife.

    Aogami 2 carbon steel is undoubtedly one of the most popular steels used in the manufacture of kitchen knives. It is noted for its outstanding edge life and overall toughness. The core steel is covered san-mai style with a soft stainless steel which receives a lovely finish. The hammer marks you see on these blades are real, not stamped with a press. The cladding adds strength, reduces mass, and makes maintenance a lot easier.

    This great looking santoku has a rather flat section at the heel end and then transitions into a nice curved belly about halfway along the edge. Blade height is generous especially for a santoku of this length. This is a robust blade in size and weight which will find favor with users looking for a knife that feels solid and stiff in hand and on the board.

    We combined his blade with a sweet oak handle in an octagonal shape.

They feature a flatter profile than some other chef-style blades and are particularly suited to push-cutting techniques rather than rocking styles. The delicate sword tip makes them very useful for small or intricate work like preparing garnishes.

    Mr. Tanaka hammer-forged this blade from Ginsan stainless steel. It is very good at taking and holding a sharp edge and sharpens more easily than many other stainless steels. A softer Damascus cladding is applied to protect and strengthen this hard-edge steel and is finished with a near mirror polish and hand engraved by Mr. Tanaka himself.

    A traditional octagonal handle completes the package and gives the knife a great look. *The Santoku A saya is the best fit.

Kurouchi is a black carbonized finish put on knives to protect the steel and provide a barrier against corrosion on carbon steel knives. It also adds strength to the inner core.

Bunkas feature a flatter profile than many other gyuto blades and are particularly suited to push cutting techniques rather than rocking styles.

    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. 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 Cleaver measures 215mm in blade length and has a thicker than average spine measuring just over 3.4mm at the base. It also boasts a taller than average blade height of 85.9mm, making it a great choice for people with larger hands and those seeking more finger-to-board clearance. 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.

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.

    Matsubara uses White steel #1 for the range of knives that includes this 240mm Gyuto. They hammer forge the blades in the traditional way. To reduce the fragility of the core steel they cover the blade in a softer carbon steel which imparts strength and lightness to the knife. The “blacksmith” kurouchi finish adds an additional layer of protection to the blade while enhancing it’s aesthetic appeal. The final touch comes in the form of some lovely hand engraved kanji characters.

    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.

Katsuto Tanaka is the principal blacksmith responsible for hand-forging these lovely blades in his famed shop located in the town of Matsubara in the city of Omura, Nagasaki Prefecture.

    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.

The core steel is AUS10, which is a higher carbon version of the popular AUS8 alloy. The added carbon gives the edge a slightly higher level of retention while still allowing for ease of sharpening. It is hardened to about 60 Rockwell. The core steel is then given a multi-layer soft stainless steel cladding with a very nicely realized damascus finish. The outer cladding not only adds strength to the blade but imparts lightness as well.

    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.

This not only adds to the great looks of the blade but results in a knife that is easy to maintain and care for.

    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.

They look quite similar to a classic Japanese usuba but are regarded as an alternative to a deba. Unlike either they are a two-sided blade. They are primarily intended for chopping vegetables. In fact, Nakiri Bocho translates to “knife for cutting greens.” The nakiri differs according to the region of origin. In this case, the rectangular shape originates from the Tokyo area. Many people use a nakiri as an alternative to the santoku knife. Their flat profile and blunt tips make them especially useful to those people preferring a non-rocking style.

    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.

It has roughly the same carbon content as the ever popular alloy, 440C, but it is made with slightly less chromium, so it is a bit less rust resistant but a bit tougher. AUS10 has some vanadium added (which the 440 series lacks), which improves wear resistance and refines the grain for both toughness and the ability to sharpen to a very keen edge.

    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.

    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.

    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.

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.

They are made in a small, family-run blacksmith shop located in Miki, Japan. So far, we have been selling knives constructed from SKS93 stainless steel, but recently they have sent us some new additions that are made with VG10. This is one of the most popular stainless steels among Japanese knife makers, as it possesses good edge retention and is very wear and corrosion resistant. The step up to VG10 steel takes these great knives to a higher level compared to their siblings, especially with regard to edge stability, ease of sharpening, and stain resistance.

    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.

    This is a truly wonderful knife. If you are looking to drop some money on a cleaver you intend to use for a long time this would not be a bad purchase. Handforged,razor sharp out of the box,amazing edge retention and impeccable fit and finish are all attributes of this knife. While it is smalled than most Chukabocho out there its size is perfect for someone working in a professional kitchen where space is tight but a cleaver is still your weapon of choice. It is well balanced and dead straight on the edge,no belly at all. It is slightly thicker than one you might order from Moritaka but perhaps that is just my knife. I have seen absolutely zero loss in functionality though in light of its thickness. This knife is a work of art that I would recommend to any cleaver lover.

    After a lot of thought I purchased this Moritaka instead of a stainless blade,I’m so glad I did !

    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 deba originated during the Edo period, in the city of Sakai. It was originally designed to cut tobacco for the Portuguese traders. Over the years it became more popular for general kitchen use picking up some refinements along the way to becoming the deba we know today.

    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!

Moritaka chooses to present these knives with a gorgeous kurouchi finish which bolsters the blades’ anti-corrosive properties. The grinds on this series are excellent and the edges are an absolute dream to work with. Easy to sharpen through high grits and capable of steep edge angles, the edge is nonetheless durable and exhibits great retention.

    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.

    This is a top product indeed. I allready bought the Gyuto 210 mm directly at Moritaka’s site but the €/Yen hanky panky almost doubled the price of this top product. Just charging as done with Chef’s went perfect. And the cost for shipping is reasonable too.

    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.

    The craftsmanship of this blade is just beyond words. I was taking back by its out of box sharpness if that’s a word but after I took its across my 3000 stone it was just something amazing.

    No frills,pure functionality. I’ve had the knife a bit over 2 weeks and it is a new favorite of mine. Very very sharp,durable,and has a nice weight. It’s a bit of a change to break down fish with a deba if you aren’t used to it but after a few times you will love it! Great purchase

    A cheap (-ish) way to a hand made Japanese knife.



    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.....

    I rate this knife at 4 of 5 stars.



    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 bought this and a matching 130mm petty knife,and they are both absolutely fabulous. They’re light and perfectly balanced,and make my hand-forged Sabatier knives feel downright heavy and clunky. The black finish is very beautiful and serviceable,and stains much less than other carbon steel knives I’ve used. Highly recommended!

    I recently purchased this gyuto from this website about a month ago. The service was immediate and shipment was hassle free. The knife itself has an undesirable appearance to it at first glance,but has soul... I am a professional chef and have put this blade to use. I use it to cut meat,peeled fruit and tuna primarily... Vegetables with membranes dull the blade quickly in one service,but it still works flawlessly on meats after the emergency tomato slice prep. Is it an all purpose knife? Not necessarily. If you buy this knife you must pamper it. Most of the black has come off due to use,cleaning and honing with a ceramic steel 5 nights a week. The black may be gone but the knife has improved its appearance and shown its true colors by constant care.

    I bought this knife based upon Mark’s recommendation for an excellent carbon-bladed wa-gyuto that could handle a professional environment. I must say,the man knows his knives.

    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.

    I bought this knife as recommended by Mark,and let me just say that he knows his knives. The edge on this thing is ridiculous,and its retention is incredible. It is very lightweight,yet feels sturdy. I bought this to be a workhorse,and it hasn’t let me down once. Yeah yeah,it rusts,blah blah,just wipe it down and dry it after you’re done using it,and you won’t have any problem. This knife looked rustic to begin with,but now that it has formed a patina,it just looks bad@$$. I HIGHLY recommend this knife.

    This in my fifth or sixth knife from CKTG and they are outstanding. There is a lot to like about this knife. I’ve been using it for about three weeks and the steel is everything they say it is. My only complaint is the blade profile. It’s very flat. In fact the knife looks more like a narrow blade santoku than a gyuto. This profile works perfectly well for slicing,but when dicing and chopping the heel of the blade is jarring when it strikes the cutting board. I’ve altered my technique to compensate and even ground the heel down a bit,but I’m pretty sure I will send this knife off to a sharpening service to have its profile reshaped at some point in the future.

    This knife feels like an extension of my hand. After a quick touch up on my stones I julienned 2 gallons of onions and 2 gallons of carrots and the knife was still sharp enough to keep going for the rest of the day doing light work. All the other chef’s and the line cook’s can’t believe that I got it for the price I did.

    I’ve had this knife for more than a year and it’s perfect. Of all my knives,this is the one (1) that food sticks to the least; (2) that wedges the least; (3) that sharpens the quickest and easiest; (4) that gets the sharpest; (5) that holds its edge the longest (though I just bought a HAP40 gyuto that I expect will best it in that regard); and (6) is the lightest and most nimble in the hand. The only downside is that it must be wiped after each use. That’s not really much of a downside in my opinion.

    I had the oppurtunity to use this knife for week and thought I would share my impressions of it.

    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 !

    I’ve been using this knife for about 2 weeks now,and what can I say,this knife is a beauty. Edges are still razor-sharp and cuts everything like butter. The Kurouchi finish is much smoother than the Tanakas I have and the water-resistant rosewood handle is one of the best I’ve seen. My friends tell me I’m obsessed and I think that summarizes my experience very well.

    This was my first purchase from CKTG.com and so far it has been great. This knife is awesome! I have used it daily for the last few weeks and there has been nothing it has not sailed through: honeydew melon,onions,carrots,celery,and squash all are sliced,diced,and minced with ease. I have never owned a knife that was this sharp before and has maintained its sharpness for so long. The finish is spectacular and must be seen in person to truly appreciate it. Anyone who is looking for a trusty blade can stop with this knife,it is sharp,durable,and beautiful. A true gem in any collection.

    My second Moritaka and I love it just as much as my other. This thing takes a beating and keep on coming back for seconds. Even with a 15-20k polish on a natural stone the edge will still last a good while. It sharpens with ease and the edge holding is out of this world. Only draw back if the handle for a right handed person but for the steel it’s easily over looked. And the usual great service from Mark.

    This is a truly impressive knife. After many hours of research,I went with the Moritaka gyuto and I can hardly say anything negative about it. The blade geometry is excellent and the knife is balanced right where my thumb and pointer pinch the blade,making all all kinds of cutting projects feel easy and natural. The knife seriously feels like an extension of my hand.



    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.

    After using this knife for almost nine months I find it a real workhorse and a pleasure to use. The steel is almost magical. It holds an incredible keen,and durable,edge. I had some chips that were probably my fault but when I starting sharpening they went away very rapidly. How is that possible? I thought that the steel would be very hard to sharpen since it held such a great edge ….not so! Usually hard steel is hard to sharpen.



    I love this knife!

    My Moritaka Gyuto 240mm came in with a small dent at the middle of the blade. The spine thickness is a bit too thin for this length. I’ve bought a Moritaka Nakiri 165mm before and I love it with its beautiful rosewood handle. I’m disappointed with the Gyuto 240 unfortunately.

    I am extremely please with this purchase. I have been putting off buying another chef’s knife for quite a while and spent a long time deciding which one to buy. This knife is very sharp out of the box. The handle is even nicer than it appears on the webpage. It has a little more weight to it than my other Japanese knives,which I like. The balance point is exactly at the pinch grip point. Helpful and super fast,personable service from the team at CKTG. Ordered late Wednesday night,shipped Thursday and was delivered from WI to TX on Friday before noon! Great knife and fantastic company. This knife is absolutely worth the money.

    Really nice package,the knife is really sharp. When I did the flowing test with the paper,this knife performed really well. However,I do need to point out some miner issue. First,I have to say the Aogami Super Steel is super good,but I found a little rust spot on the blade. Note that it is really normal. Please make sure that you buy the oil to protect the knife ASAP. Overall quality is unbelievable.

These knives punch beyond their price point and are a great piece of Japanese blade-making history.

    The blade is paired with a lovely custom, 4,000 year old, bog oak oval handle.

    I purchased this Gyuto recently and couldn’t be happier! The kuro-uchi finish is nice and even but still rough enough that food does not stick. The Aogami Super blade takes an excellent edge and keeps it through hours of use. The blade has an excellent geometry and very flat blade profile which I prefer.



    The customer service was second to none also. My order was processed right away and arrived 3 days later.

    This knife is beautifully crafted and very hefty. I bought for two reasons- I was looking for an extremely trusty workhorse knife,and because the Kurouchi look just captivated me. (They say when you buy a knife,you’re taking a piece of the craftsman’s soul with you. If you don’t feel it,it’s not the knife for you)



    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 :)

    It’s taking a bit for this knife to grow on me,though to be honest I bought it to replace a European boning knife. This knife does very well boning out chickens,which is what it is designed to do. Not so good at removing silcerskin from beef though. It takes a good edge,but needs a lot more work than my Takeda Guyuto and won’t get nearly as sharp. great fit and finish and a beautiful handle. Get one if you are boning out a lot of poultry.

    OOTB - Not very sharp,really needed a lot of work starting at a 1000g stone,but considering the steel it became very very sharp after some work,no scratches or warps or anything,just perfect OOTB except for sharpness.



    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.

    It took me a while to pick out which Honesuki I wanted. I was looking for a well priced one that I would happy with. I chose this one based on the core steel and octagonal handle which I find better than other handle types. This knife has not let me down. Like others have said it needs a little work out of the box I sharpened on a 4k then 8 stone. Finished on a strop loaded with diamond spray. This knife is one i couldn’t live without.

    I picked this knife up not knowing what to expect having had no experience with a Kiritsuke. I love it. It takes little to put a ridiculous edge on it. It holds the edge very well. Fit and finish are both very nice as I have come to expect. The tip on this knife is exceptionally thin and sharp. My favorite things to do with this knife so far are slicing steak and brunoise of just about anything. Great Knife!

Over 700 years of tradition and craftsmanship have been brought to bear in the Moritaka Supreme series of knives which house a core of Aogami Super (AS) steel between layers of softer iron cladding. Ever innovating, Moritaka welds a stainless tang to a hand forged blade to prevent corrosion under the handle. Indeed, the kurouchi finish on these blades also improves the corrosion resistance of otherwise highly reactive cladding. The symmetric grinds on Moritaka Supreme knives get very thin behind the edge and display a degree of convexing to aid in ingredient separation. Finding hand crafted blades of this caliber, and premium AS steel at this price point, is a virtual impossibility, making the Supreme series of knives some of the best values on our site.

    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.

    This is a gorgeous knife! This is my first knife made with aogami super steel and now i know what all the fuss is about! It came very sharp ootb. I even shaved a big patch of arm hair off ootb! It isn’t as quick to rust as other carbon blades i own. And i know its preference,but i love the rustic look of the kurouchi finish on the blade,and LOVE the sword tip! Its a head turner for sure! Sharpening has been a breeze,and you can get it razor sharp. Also,it’s amazing to me just how long this blade holds it edge. I highly recommend this knife or any other Moritaka for that matter. They are a great deal price wise as far as I’m concerned.

    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!

    I bought a few Moritakas years ago and recently bought this one for a friend. The finish and handle quality are far superior on these newer knives. Moritaka does a nice job with their heat treatments. Their blue steel takes and holds a better edge than a Hiromoto AS but not as well as Murray Carter’s. The geometry on these is kind of strange. The thickness at the spine continues down towards the edge for quite a while before tapering. The profile seems more ground than hammered. This makes it a fairly heavy very strong workhorse knife. Not going to fall through carrots but no need to baby it. The Kiritsuke is a real looker.

    Extraordinary cutting ease from the shallow bevel geometry extending 1/2 inch up the edge,the uniform thinness of the blade and the heft (good weight). The edge outlasts Blue paper steel (Rockwell 63) on Tadefusa knives,and other lower hardness Aogami steel

    Great knife,really love the look of it. I like that it is a great workhorse knife and not just a collectors item so i dont feel bad using it in service for a variety of different tasks. Not many complaints about it,out of the box it was sharp but not as sharp as I expected,though I very very easily made it super scary sharp and the edge retention on this knife is unreal. I used in extensivly on my 12 hour shifts and it still remains scary sharp after all that abuse. By far the best knife I have used,I have to be careful,its so sharp it tends to sometimes bite into the board if i push to hard. Highly recommend this knife and any of the moritaka knives...truly feels like a work of art that you can enjoy while working. Thanks to mark for the recommendation.

    Great knife sharp right out of the box I owned a shun,henckles,two tojiro knives. I must say that the shun and henckles will never be as sharp as this moritaka even out of the box the aogami super steel is far superior to any stainless steel knife by miles!

    Great knife extremely sharp. I have owned a Shun classic,Henckles,a bunch of Tojoro knives,forschner,and Swiss knives all Japanese or western and this knife is the sharpest. I have always been a fan of blue steel knives and I realize the shuns,henckles,etc can never really get as sharp as the blue super steel...great knife,great price,great customer service.

    First Moritaka and not my last. Awesome knife all around. The blade is very flat with a little curve at the tip. Out of the box was good to push cut paper. Edge retention is out of this world. Took it to work for two days of hard prep and only stropped it after the end of the day then was good to go. Took it to the stones to touch it up which was easy. Only problem is the D shape handle as I am a lefty but don’t let that stop you. And the usual great service from Mark.

    This knife is AMAZING! Otb,very sharp... a minute (literally) on the stones and strop and "wow". Katsura muki is so much easier. The knife provides a good deal of feedback and patina is less of an issue than I expected (in comparison to my yanagiba or usuba). I’m equally impressed with the prompt answers to my question from Mark and excellent service. Also,the free sharpie in the box was a nice treat... I’m always hunting for one at work,and never remember to get one at the store. Thanks again Mark!

    This knife is worth every penny. Was quite decent OOTB,but gave it a quick sharpen and it took a super sharp and precise edge and holds that edge ridicoulously well with a little TLC. This knife has come through heavy prep still holding a serious edge. Aogami super is great steel and moritaka has obviously mastered it. Kiritsuke/gyuto is a unique and very verstile style knife. It is a priviledge to own one from a great company with roots as deep as Moritaka has. I highly rcommend any knife from Moritaka,as well as the superb service from Chef Knives ToGo.

    This knife was screaming sharp out of the box. I could not believe it. I have pounded it through all kinds of product from poultry fabrication to veg work and this knife tears through everything I can thorough at it. I don’t use it for fish,I use a single bevel Deba for that,but for work horse tasks it is perfect. I also have a Yanagiba for slicing proteins. Now for the service. These guys are quick to respond,the shipping is mind meltingly fast. I got may two days after I ordered it with free shipping. Will be ordering from them again.

    My awesome wife got this for me for Christmas. It immediately became my number one knife. I haven’t run it over my sharpening stones yet but it was pretty sharp oob. Love the balance and shape of the blade. Feels great in my hand and even flew through some of the tough winter vegetables that we have been working with lately.

    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!!!

    Love this knife,came sharp out of the box,was easily made sharper.



    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’ve had this knife for several weeks now and I absolutely love it! It’s got a very straight edge with a small amount of curve towards the tip,which means it can rock-crop/slice small things like herbs-garlic-shallots. This knife is best suited to push- and pull-cuts with the edge parallel to the board,slicing,peeling and chopping tasks.



    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 still my go-to gyuto. the steel takes an awesome edge but is prone to chipping because of its 64 rc hardness. I would but this knife again in a hreatbeat if anything every happened to mine.



    this is a knife for knife enthusiasts,to be sure. it needs a lot of TLC but is more than worth it.



    Highly recommended.

    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.

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.

    This is my first knife from CKTG. I decided on the Moritaka after talking with Mark and others on the CKTG Forum. Excellent place to go for any questions you may have. I had excellent sales and service from Mark and CKTG. Knife arrived quickly and well packaged. F&F were very good. Very Sharp OOB. I have cut a lot of trinity with this knife and it cuts silky smooth. Overall very happy with this purchase. I will be buying more knives and accessories from Mark and CKTG!

    I received this knife a last week. The edge out of the box was ok,and could slice paper well. I put it on the Edge Pro Apex and sharpened it with the custom Chosera stones before stropping it with compounds from Hand American and Ken’s corner. It’s a laser now as you can see in my video.

    I highly recommend this petty to everybody. The fit and finish is incredible and the steel is fantastic.

    Great knife! I have been replacing my set of work knives and this is perfect for a Wa-styled paring knife.



    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.

    Great little knife from a great family! Very sharp and cuts well. Looks great! Very traditional type of style. Definitely need to wipe dry or it will rust (but should will all knives). Price is great for this knife! Shipping is always great from ChefKnivesToGo - thanks for carrying so many great knives!!

    I was having a hard time finding a paring knife or petty that I liked enough to by. Until I saw this little number. I chose to buy it because it is not to long and the blade has some height to it. My first impression of it out of the box was WOW! Its even More Wicked than it looks on cktg! After polishing the edge a little I gotta saw that it performs better than I had expected,(and I expected a lot). If you like the way it looks then buy it. You will be happy you did. Full Five Stars from me!

    This has become my wifes go to knife and I use it as well.



    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.

    I’ve been using this knife now for a couple of months,it has replaced my shun premiere (pairing) and is the only knife i need for service,the only thing is the rust (since i cut lots of fresh vegetables during service) is a pain to be cleaning it,though i kept the paper that came with the knife and just dry it and packt it back,so far i have only sharpen it once on the whetstone,and still use it everyday,a beautiful knife worth the money

    Brilliant,perfectly balanced,incredibly sharp out of the box,though it got even better after a few minutes on the stone. This and my Moritaka 240mm gyuto do almost everything I need to do in the kitchen. A beautifully crafted knife.

    Most of my Japanese knives are quite heavy,so I purchased this one with lightness and handiness in mind. It does not disappoint. It arrived moderately sharp,but I prefer my blades to be razor sharp. A little time with a fine grit Japanese water stone and my new sink bridge turned this blade into a "shaver" in short order. It comes with an attractive and comfortable rosewood handle that you usually are charged extra for. My wife also prefers it to most of my other heavier knives and her favourable impression certainly helps to justify my obsession with good-quality knives. I would regard this as a very good entry-level knife.

    I have used this knife for about 5 months now and i absolutely love it. I use it as a paring knife/utility knife. I had it professionally sharpened and all I have to do from time to time is polish it on a 6000 grit stone and strop and the bite never goes away. Highly recommended for those serious cooks out there. Just keep dry after each use and rust should not be a problem.

    This is a really nice knife,comes quite sharp OTB and sharpens up really easily. I have been using it in a professional kitchen and it holds its edge through many days of work with some gentle stropping.



    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.

    Moritaka 150mm petty.

    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

    I purchased this knife along with Takeda Banno Funayki in an an effort to answer the question: "How well do super traditional Japanese blades compete with ultra-modern knives?"



    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.

    As always,I am very pleased with the product and the service.



    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.

    I have been putting this review off for awhile now thinking the new would wear off and I could give a more accurate review of this knife. The knife came lickety split and fairly sharp OTOTB.After acouple of three weeks I put the stones to it and now this knife is truly amazing. Now that the veggies from the garden are ripening I use this knife everyday and often. For a knife that was just going to be another knife has become my favorite. Love the steel and the handle. Fairly easy to sharpen an holds that edge. And yes you get to wipe it,and wash it right after using it or you get that sweet "It’s not rust it’s Patina! Moritaka AS steel is amazin!

    When I ordered I was a bit apprehensive about the kurouchi finish. But when I opened the box it was beautifully rustic. It was screaming sharp ootb. It feels great in my large hands. It has just enough height that I can use it on the board with a pinch grip. I put a 12 degree bevel on it and it chops and slices with no wedging or and minimal sticking. After a couple of weeks on onions,tomatoes and some proteins the exposed edge is developing an attractive blue patina. This is a great utility knife that fits nicely between your small petty and gyuto.

    Highly recommended.

    This is a wonderful knife and it is my third Moritaka. This Supreme 165mm Petty has an excellent balance,the thickness if its spine support the knife very well. And of course,it is super sharp. My first Moritaka came with a beautiful rosewood handle,if they are continuing the use of the same kind of wood on their handles,that would be a 5 stars knife easily.

    This knife is a very light weight knife. I think that even MAC knives seem to feel heftier. It’s wicked sharp though and the images online don’t do the knife justice. Well worth the money if you want a feather with a razor’s edge.

    This is a great deal on a hand made aogami super knife. The coating on mine was a bit sloppy,but aogami super is very appropriately named. I work in a sushi bar 5-6 days a week and was starting to get a bit of soreness/stiffness in the top knuckle of the thumb of my knife hand. I was using a fancy,heavy,modern damascus santoku for my veggie and roll cutting duties and after switching to the Moritaka my thumb is thanking me. This think is astoundingly light! It’s also scary sharp,and like all straight carbon steel it’s (in my opinion) easier to sharpen than soligen,molybdenum,or VG10 steel. The handle is great too. Similar to Shuns D shaped,but with a more pronounced "bump". A feather weight lightsaber.

    This is an excellent deal on a fantastic knife. The kurouchi finish is rough,but delightfully so,if its your taste. The rosewood handle is attractive,lightweight and still well balanced. The blade itself is razor sharp out of the box,and should stay so,as is the nature of Aogami Super steel. I have yet to sharpen,however each knife comes with one free sharpening through moritaka,or should sharpen up easily on your own stones. Overall,this knife is a workhorse with lots of character and a purchase that will not be regretted.

    this is by far the nicest santoku i have seen but i am partial to agomi super steel. i like the fact that a stainless tang was forged to the blade to prevent rusting up in the handle. the kurouchi finish does not bother me in the least. the right handed handle has a slight ridge in the D. very nice overall.

    received this knife about 2 weeks ago and really love it,the edge has stayed sharp with lots of use in a professional kitchen. Amazingly light weight and comfortable my first Aogami Super Steel knife. Only complaint is that the appearance of the knife(Kurouchi finish) comes off after wiping it off and cleaning consistently.

Moritaka Hamono has been crafting swords since the 13th century and has been making kitchen cutlery for five generations. The longevity of the brand 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.

    Moritaka knives feel at once both substantial yet nimble in the 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 a thing of beauty. 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.

    The blade is paired with a lovely custom oval handle made with 4,000-year-old Bog Oak.

The edge steel used is Aogami Supersteel and it's clad in kurouchi finished iron. The history and tradition accrued from over 700 years of hand forging swords and knives is evinced wonderfully in the rustic aesthetic of these blades. These knives are from the supreme series and are made with Aogami Super. Moritaka’s treatment of the Aogami Super steel is excellent and they insert that steel into the soft iron cladding at their shop.

    Light as a feather and sharpe as a razor out of the box. Nice wood handle,very nice blade with a smooth Kurochi finish. Great grind makes this a handy small gyuto or large petty. Great for doing delicate prep on smaller veges. I have been using it for over two weeks and the edge is as sharpe as I the day I got it. Blue #1 should sharpen up very well. Great quality and a real bargain. Buy it!

    Absolutely fantastic knife -- I’d been looking for a reasonably priced hand-made nakiri for some time,and this fit the bill perfectly. The octagonal handle is ideal for me,and the OOTB edge is sharp enough to push-cut paper. Great value for the money,and best of all,there’s no cheap plastic ferrule!

    This is not one of my favorite knives. The handle feels cheap and the light weight of the knife makes me feel like i’m going to break it every use. The edge gets razor sharp with a good sharping though. Out of the box this was not sharp enough for me so after 10 min on the stone its a lot better.

    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. The photo above is one I took of Nakagawa san on that first visit.

    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.

    After being tipped off by our forum customers, I inquired about the rumor that Morihiro san sharpened these blades, and this was confirmed by our contact.

    The Naniwa Green Brick of Joy is fast becoming my favorite stone. Use it with a lot of water on the surface and it cuts around the speed of 1,000 grit waterstone. Let the surface dry as you continue sharpening and the stone finishes like 3,000-4,000 grit waterstone. Dishes faster than some other stones,but it’s truly a pleasure to use.

    A long time favorite stone of mine. It is the ideal stone for European knives,allowing you to go from a very coarse stone or plate up to a level of finish more than adequate for European knives. Also works well in a sequence for harder Japanese knives too. Using the dried mud from lapping the stone dried on paper gives you an excellent ’stone paper’ for polishing the sides of your knife. Very smooth stone with excellent feedback. HIGHLY recommended stone.

    Man,this is an amazing stone! It’s not that far from the 2k Chocera but at a fraction of the price. Like the Chocera,it’s "dense" enough to go from an Arato (even a 320/C DMT) right to this one with great results. You really can’t go wrong with this one. I can’t recommend this stone highly enough!

    After using this for awhile I have to say this is a "magic bullet" for German knives. Most of the time when I have to sharpen a Wusthof or other German the owner has steeled it to the point that you can barely tell which part of the blade to sharpen. ;) Typically I’ll use a DMT XC and/or C to cut a good clean bevel; I’ve found that I can jump right from the DMT C/320 and even right from the XC/22o to the Aotoshi 2k with no intermediate stones. It’s "nutrient dense" enough to not only polish out the DMT scratches but put an impressive shine & superb cutting edge on in one shot.



    With my new "1-2 Punch" of DMT + Green Brick I no longer dread sharpening Germans. Er,okay...I dread it less. ;)

    I don’t know how I lived without this stone. It cuts as fast as a 1k and polishes to a mirror finish. The feedback and feel of this stone is buttery smooth. It’s easy to flatten and doesn’t dish as fast as a 1k superstone. I’m perfectly happy with the edge off this stone,I haven’t felt the need to use a finishing stone,yet.

    The green brick is exactly what it says -- a joy to use. It is the best 2000 grit stone I’ve used in years. It produces good mud and does not dish easily. It will last me a lifetime,due to its size. You cannot go wrong with this stone. Absolutely great! Fast shipping,and great products. Thanks Mark,for another good one.

    Outstanding stone!! I’ve had some time to try a few different knives on it and I love it! Great,silky smooth feel with a very high polish for a stone rated 2k. I’d guess the finish is closer to 5k almost mirror finish with light pressure. Very fun to use but very easy to gouge if your angle isn’t steady.

    A friend let me borrow this stone about a year ago,and I finally purchased it tonight. After using many other systems I found that this stone is the absolute best all around stone I’ve used. I’m the type of person who likes to keep a quality working edge on their knives rather than sharpening from the ground up. This stone is very easy to work with and gives amazing feedback,and not to mention the working surface is huge. The only reason I didn’t order one earlier is they were out of stock the last time I looked for it and no other retailer seems to have this stone. I use this stone as a finish stone and see no necessity of going any finer for almost all of my uses. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

    OK stone for the money I mean the stone is huge but in opinion it is picky about what steels it want to sharpen. Softer steels will get screaming sharp and have a nice semi gloss after sharpening,but your harder steels will still get kind of sharp but not really what I call sharp. I was looking for a stone to bridge the gap between 800 or 1000 to 4000 and I believe there are better stones for this. Great service from Mark as always but if I ever wear this huge thing out I believe I would try another 2k stone over this one. Also this stone is very soft it feels like a king almost,again and just my opinion but the one thing this stone is great at is for a working edge work the stone until kind of dry and let it load up to get a nice hazey finish and a decent working edge .

    Great stone all around for the price. It does clog a bit more than other stones,but you just add more water and keep on sharpening. If you are new to sharpening and looking for 1 decent stone to add to your rougher grit this is the one. Cuts fast and leaves a nice toothy edge. It does tend to dish because its a softer stone,but you get a lot of stone for your money.

    This is a nice stone I don’t know if its me but I don’t think this stone is a joy to use. I bought this stone because of the price and I’ve read that everyone loves this stone. While its a good to have I do notice like someone else has stated that it depends on what steel your sharpening on how well this stone preforms. This stone clogs quite easily but I find cleaning the surface with a nagura really helps improve the preformance and unclog the stone.

    This is a great stone; cuts beautifully and is a great size,wide and long so large gyutos are no problem.

    Does tend to build a thick slurry if not kept watered during sharpening but this doesn’t detract from its performance.

    I am very pleased with the performance of this stone. I received this stone by accident; but it turned out to be a great blessing. Having used Ark stones,Norton water stones,and Sigma Power stones,I was really surprised at how well this Chosera 1000 works. First,it’s pretty fast and cuts wonderfully! The stone is super dish resistant! It slowly works up a slurry and polishes blade backs (woodworking chisels and plane blades)to better than all but the Sigma. What I love about the stone is how it continues to work even when loading up. I’ve experienced no glazing with the stone. The green slurry is annoying,but it washes right off without a problem. Likewise,this stone is quick and easy to flatten. And,like the Sigma Power,the Chosera 1000 has a superior feel to the other stones I’ve used. Though the higher price was an initial hinderance to me,I’ll have to say that I expect it to outlast all other stones (well,not the Ark stones) I’ve tried. This stone gets flat,stays flat,and demonstrates excellent longevity. I’m glad I tried it!!!

    I have quite a few different bevel setters that I use for my straight razors. The Chosera is without doubt the best by far. It works equally well for knives. CKTG sells it WITHOUT the base which is far better (do not buy it with the base). You can use both sides that way and it is easier to lap under running water. The feedback is unmatched. I suggest also getting the Chosera 400 for those who want to start with a lower grit. As always,super service and speedy shipping from CKTG.

    It doesn’t get any better than this stone at the 1k level. It is hard and cuts fast and leaves a smooth bevel. If you are even halfway serious about sharpening,you need to pick up a Chosera 1k. Chefknivestogo has the best prices and top notch service. I highly recommend.

    It is a very hard stone yet it polishes it is thicker than a standard Chosera probable 15% since it is an occasional stone unless it is used to sharpen razors daily it is likely to last many years .

    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.

Alternatively, the fast-cutting action of the Chosera stones means that sharpening progressions can reach a broader grit range with fewer stones. This 2k stone could readily refine the scratch patterns of coarse girt stones like a 600 grit before moving onto a much finer stone to finish. Like all stones in the Chosera line, this stone is fast-cutting and slow dishing and has an excellent reputation for providing pleasant feedback.

    As a woodworker,I’m looking for fast,effective ways to flatten blade backs and bevels. The Chosera 400 is truly a fabulous stone. It’s very dish resistant,loads up but still continues to reestablish edges and sharpen without glazing. The Nagura included with it is highly helpful in creating a cutting slurry.

    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!

    Chosera #400 is a hard and very dish resistant stone. It takes a little time to form slurry,but then it glides on yanagi’s blade. You may first try this stone for setting bevels/minor repairs on yanagis before going to a rougher stone. I prefer this over Beston #500 on yanagi,because Beston frequently needs water and its abbrasives get cought up in front on shinogi line and scratches the flat part of yanagi.On deba knife,this stone feels a little rougher,because of deba’s thick and narrow blade characteristics. For deba,I would prefer either Naniwa #150 or Beston #220,which Mark added lately. On the other hand,I would prefer it over Beston #500 on deba,as well. On double bevel knives,I don’t like it much because the narrow blade road skids on the stone rather than bite into it. At the end,if you have space for another stone,buy it for single bevel knives to use it for light bevel setting/minor repair work or as intermediary stone between very rough and medium grit stones. Good stone.

    This stone is a beast. When I first got it,I set bevels and removed chips on over two dozen blades (mostly friends’ neglected knives) before I began to notice the dishing. Very hard,cuts fast,dishes slowly. Excellent coarse grit stone,and feels smoother than 400 when you work with it.

    Let me just say upfront that this is a great stone. Great feedback,slow wearing. The finish the stone leaves is,by itself,almost mirrored. When used with it’s sister,the 10k,the edge is out of this world.

    I purchased this stone to use as a more aggressive alternative to my Sigma Power 1k. I’m finding it to be a great foundation stone for resharpening edges that need a bit more than just a quick touchup. I would categorize it as a 1k on steroids,as it does the same job just faster. It also has that same lovely,consistent,and smooth feel of the whole Chosera line. It’s quite fast,especially when freshly lapped,and while it does leave slightly coarser scratches then a 1k,it is still fine enough that I can use it in the same progression in which I was using my Sigma 1k. While your mileage may vary,in most cases,I believe you could go to the same stones from this that you would go to from a 1k. On edges that are either small,hollow ground,or micro beveled,I’ve been jumping from it all the way up to my Snow White 8k. This may not work for you knife and razor guys,but many of us woodworkers love being able to do these big jumps. On larger areas of steel,such as blade backs,I put my Sigma Power 6k into the mix,and while it does take out the 800 scratches without any trouble,I’m thinking a Chosera 3k,which I’ve used but do not own,would be an ideal stone to follow the 800. I was expecting this stone to be quite thirsty,and while it works best with a soak,it works quite well with a heavy splash; the water tends to sit on top for a while rather than being sucked into the stone right away. Also,because it is relatively hard and fast it really helps you to get your edge geometry correct at the get go. So far I’m also finding this stone less prone to overloading and clogging than some of the other Chosera’s I’ve used,and I think I like it a little better than the Chosera 1k,which I don’t own,but have used a number of times and quite like also. This stone doesn’t get a lot of press,presumably because it is an 800 where as 1k’s tend to be more popular,but keep in mind that a Shapton 1k is also technically an 800 grit stone under the current JIS rating system. If you are looking for a “medium” grit foundational stone,the Chosera 800 is a serious force to reckoned with. I highly recommend it!

The Naniwa Super Stones work well for everything from restoring an edge or repairing chips to simply touching up the edge.

    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.

It leaves an amazing mirror-like finish on the blade of high end Japanese knives or blades. This allows for ultra silky cutting and slicing.


    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."|""|""|"

CKTG is the sole North American distributor of these stones with no bases which are made a full 2 cm (0.75”) thick. Many of the cheaper stones you'll find are just 1 cm thick and so can wear down after just a few years of use. Or worse, they stand the chance of cracking more easily since there's just not enough strength in the thin material.

    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 is a beautiful stone to work with on a Suehiro rubber base. Even slurry produced and you can see exactly what and where material is removed because the stone is white. I’m really glad I got this 12K stone before I strop the blade. I don’t soak the stone,just spray on water or spread a palm full from the faucet. Highly recommended.

They are made with a new resin bond and a tighter control of grit particle size. This bonding agent gives the stones two distinct advantages. First, the resin bond allows for a higher concentration of abrasive particles compared with less expensive methods of stone bonding. The higher abrasive levels contribute to the speed and ease of sharpening. Second, these resin bonded stones don't require soaking in water prior to use, just a sprinkle on the top is all that is needed. Do not soak these stones!

    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.

    Although the price was initially a concern,I am very glad I got the 3K SS. I use this on straight razors and I love the feel of the stone - kinda like a pencil eraser but much firmer. Fast cutting very high quality product combined with great service from ChefKnivestogo makes this a perfect option to keep things sharp. Also a worry was how long this stone would last but after using it for a few days I cannot imagine this stone not long outliving me. It is such a fast cutter that it is hard to wear the stone down at all,as long as you don’t overdue lapping this stone will have a 100+ year lifespan.

They are made with a new resin bond and a tighter control of grit particle size. This bonding agent gives the stones two distinct advantages. First, the resin bond allows for a higher concentration of abrasive particles compared with less expensive methods of stone bonding. The higher abrasive levels contribute to the speed and ease of sharpening. Second, these resin bonded stones don't require soaking in water prior to use, just a sprinkle on the top is all that is needed. Do not soak these stones!

    This particular 400 grit stone is excellent for establishing a new bevel angle or removing chips from the blade. This stone is the lowest grit you will need if you maintain your edges. If your knife or tool is not damaged or allowed to get too dull between sharpening sessions this 400 would be the coarsest stone you would need. They measure 210 mm x 70 mm x 20 mm. "|""|""|"

    The Naniwa SS 5K stone is a soft,slow stone that is able to put on a mirror polish that belies it’s grit rating. Easy to use,moderate feel for a beginner,tends to load up quickly on some steels. Overall,a good stone to follow a 1K or 1.2K like the Bester. Follow this with a strop on felt with diamond spray and the knives are good for the week.

    This Naniwa super stone is a good size soft stone. The finished bevel is mirror shiny; shiner than other 5000 grit stones.

    It is easy to gouge the stone especially when grinding the edge leading.

These Naniwa Super Stones from Japan are designed to allow you to sharpen quickly, and with a minimum of maintenance. The latest version of these stones are resin based, so they do not need to be (and should not be) soaked before use. Just a splash of water is all that is required to get you started.

    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.

    This 8,000 stone is a wonderful final stage for most knives. We believe it’s a great way to get professional results at the end of your sharpening or reshaping regime."|""|""|"

    Almost as fine and darn near as fast as a Chosera 10K,without being nearly nearly as expensive. Shines like the similarly priced Naniwa SS 8 and 10Ks without being as soft and as prone to gouging. Not only outstanding by itself,but partnered with a Kitayama will create a world beating edge.

    The Jyunpaku (aka "Snow White) is a wonderful stone! Although I primarily use it to bridge the gap between the 5k and 10k Chocera’s,it’s a great final finishing stone in it’s own right. While it’s not in the Chocera series it does feel very similar; it seems to have a very high grit density and the same "creamy" feel of its Chocera kin. At the price you’re crazy to not have this stone in your collection!

    Got a slice mounted to an Edge Pro blank.



    It really paves the way for edge refining after the 5k and just before 10k polishing.



    Has very good feedback,cuts well.



    A must in your collection.

    One of my absolute favorites. It’s fast,smooth and works on every steel I’ve tried. I don’t know why this stone isn’t in the Chosera line,because it works so well between the 5k and 10k.



    It produces a bright mirror and doesn’t dish.



    Just perfect!

    I never and I mean never thought I would love a stone as much as this one. It cuts while it polishes who could ask for more. Unless the customer wants a higher grit I stop with this carbon or stainless. I don’t go any higher on my own knives and I can whip through a 10 lb bag of potatoes and a 5 lb bag of vadilias with my Richmomd remedy sharpened with this stone and won’t even have to touch up the knife,maybe just hit it with a handamerican strop and put it back in the rack till the next day. As usual unmatched service from mark and sue no one can touch it.

    Might as well be called a Chosera 9.9K because its 99% of what the Chosera 10k is. I’ve only had my Snow White a few days,but have been using it side by side with a small piece of Chosera 10k I bought at a discount. Like the Chosera 10k it doesn’t visibly absorb any water when you splash it,and while you can use it as a splash and go it does work much better with at least a 5-10 minute soak. I am a woodworker and have been using both to put a final polish on my chisels and plane blades. On typical O1 and A2 tool steels the Snow White is at least as fast as the Chosera 10k. On small bevels you can easily jump to it straight from a 1k. The Snow White and the Chosera 10k produce an edge that is nearly identical in terms of sharpness but the Chosera does impart a slightly,though noticeably brighter finish. Aesthetics,however,is the biggest difference in the end result. Also,with the Snow White,or really any hard stone,you can work up a finer edge and higher polish by wiping the surface of the stone dry and working the edge a bit longer on the surface as it dries out further. When I do this with the Snow White it easily works up to at least a 10k polish and edge. I suppose the Chosera 10k can take you a little farther if you do the same thing,and while it definitely puts on a brighter polish at the get go,I believe the vast majority of people wouldn’t be able to tell a difference in actual sharpness between it and the Snow White. The Chosera 10k is awesome,no doubt. But,if you’ve ever wanted one,and couldn’t justify the expense this is the stone to get. Naniwa’s best kept secret!

    My Junpaku arrived with one of its corners crushed,so a small bit of it flaked off as soon as I unpacked it. However,it didn’t factor into its performance. The stone was a bit peaky on the edges and center,and required a bit of flattening with my course DMT plate. I put it through its paces with a variety of steels. Stainless proved to be the most difficult of the bunch to finish with this stone,but it ultimately produced a finely polished edge. The Junpaku has good hardness,so gouging shouldn’t be an issue. The polish it achieves is quite nice for an #8k stone. The results it can produce are undeniably good,so it is a 5 star performer. However,it tends to clog in my experience,which is a pain. It also is a bit high maintenance or cracks can form,which isn’t uncommon. Therefore,I have to dock it a star. Even though it’s more of a splash-and-go stone,I find a good 5 minute soak will saturate it well enough to start sharpening. Keeping a spray bottle on hand is also recommended. The Junpaku is a quality proven stone.

    So far this nagura has been fun to use. While some suggest not to mix natural with synthetic’s (different shapped abrasives and such),I picked up 2 One the use on J-Nats and one for synthetics. Both have produced good results. I also got a great haze off my Shapton GS 1k and 3k with the use of this nagura. I find this one a bit hard and rather smooth.

    If you own a natural stone that isn’t the fastest on giving up the mud like the Jyunsyouhonyama (which I own) then you should get one of these. I recently used it on the Jyunsyouhonyama and it quickly gave me a good starting point. After a few passes I had a good mud worked up. Before hand it would take a very long time. So if you have hard stones that don’t make mud very fast pick up one of these nagura’s and it will help. As usual great shipping and of course Mark is awesome as well.

    Picked this up for woodworking. I have a J-Nat that is hard and tends to skip when flatting the backs of planes and chisels. This nagura creates a fine smooth paste that makes the tool slide easily on the stone without skipping. It creates a very fine matte finish. I didn’t use this stone much up to this point but the finish and edge it creates with this nagura is amazing. I thought this stone was low quality but used with the nagura,I have to say I’m impressed.

    Natural Nagura is a MUST for a Natural Finish/Polishing Stone,like Ohira High Grade (approx. 9-10k grit) and Honyama (8-9k grit)natural stones. Don’t use synthetic nagura on natural stones; somehow it is not the same. I use it in a combination of circular and up-and-down motion to further smoothen the stone’s surface and also to create a slurry for my yanagi knives. Slurry makes the yanagi knife glide effortlessly over the stone,also helps in polishing action. Without slurry,yanagi knives tend to get stuck over the stone or do not glide well (which may be dangerous as you may end up having cuts in your fingers). As for double bevel knives,like a chef’s knife,I use nagura just to clean the surface,then wash it off so that narrow blade road grabs the stone,increasing stone’s feedback. However,some prefer washing off the slurry for all kind of knives; or they create slurry out of stone itself bu using a fine diamond stone. Try both ways,and you guys decide.

    A Natural Nagura is a must for a nutural finishing stone,like Ohira High Grade and Honyama stones. I apply a combination of circular and up-and-down motion to smoothen the stone surface and to create slurry for my yanagi knives. I find slurry helpful on yanagi knives,because it helps yanagi glide over the stone and also facilitates extra polishing. Without slurry,a yanagi tends to get stuck on a natural finishing stone. On the other hand,I wash the slurry off when I finish my double bevel knives,like a chef’s knife,because slurry decreases stone’s feedback (biting into blade) on small blade road of a double bevel knife.

    This nagura works up a nice fine slurry. It appears to be harder than other naguras. Lubricates the stones well...

    During the early Edo Period, the city of Hirosaki was a castle town. There were over one hundred forging shops in the area. Nigara Forging is one of these historical Tsugaru blacksmith shops. The Nigara company has kept the traditional forging techniques alive and has remained committed to high-quality blade forging for centuries.

    This is one of the most beautiful knives we carry. The raindrop damascus on this SG2 Stainless knife is dramatic and makes it a piece of functional art.

    The ""Anmon"" design was inspired by the rippling water of the Anmon Waterfalls, cascading from the foot of the World Heritage Shirakami Mountains adjacent to the city of Hirosaki. The ripple design on the knife comes only after forging 25 layers of steel, resulting in a sharp and durable blade, resistant to rust. No two blades have the same markings, as each is made carefully by hand.

    You have to see and handle this knife to truly appreciate the quality of workmanship and materials. A real stunner! It's topped off with a very nice wenge octagonal handle with buffalo horn ferrule.

The Nigara company has kept the traditional forging techniques alive and has remained committed to high-quality blade forging for centuries.

    This is one of the most beautiful knives we carry. The raindrop damascus on this SG2 Stainless knife is dramatic and makes it a piece of functional art.

    The ""Anmon"" design was inspired by the rippling water of the Anmon Waterfalls, cascading from the foot of the World Heritage Shirakami Mountains adjacent to the city of Hirosaki. The ripple design on the knife comes only after forging 25 layers of steel, resulting in a sharp and durable blade, resistant to rust. No two blades have the same markings, as each is made carefully by hand.

    You have to see and handle this knife to truly appreciate the quality of workmanship and materials. A real stunner! It's topped off with a very nice Wenge octagonal handle with buffalo horn ferrule.

    I have been a professional knife maker and polisher of blades for longer than I can remember. I specialize in Japanese style kitchen knives,and all my blades are hand sharpened and polished. I also love to shave with a straight razor. The Ohira Tomae is a great finisher. It is possibly one of the finest hones I have had the pleasure of using over the years and is guaranteed to put a wicked edge on your knife or razor. It has great slurry production and yet is consumed relatively slowly. A stone like this will probably outlast it’s owner a number of times over in a home setting - and it is a very long lasting stone even in a professional sharpening shop.

    This is my first finishing stone. I’ve now used it on about 10 knives (mostly Japanese but including a few German) and followed it up with stropping first on a loaded leather strop and then a plain leather strop. My assessment is WOW!



    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.

    Great per-polisher. When my kitchen and pocket knives start to loose their keen edge I pull out this stone first to bring them back. I then like to finish the edge on the Ozuku,followed by a swipe or two on the balsa strop or smooth steel.

    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.

    This is a great finishing stone for both single bevel and hard steel double bevel knives. My stone gave me around 10k grit,taking Kitayama as an #8000 grit reference point. It leaves a finer edge than Kitayama,yet edge gets more aggressive and also significantly harder. The difference is very obvious,literally you feel you have a different knife,in a good sense. It looks like this is typical of natural stones. It works equally well on my yanagis and chef’s knives. I generally stop at 8k with synthetic stones,but natural stones enable you to move up by couple of thousand grits. For single bevel knives,you need to use a natural nagura to optimize this stone’s potential. Natural Nagura on a Natural Stone makes a big difference. For double bevel knives,I don’t recommend using nagura. Nagura makes double bevel edge slip rather than bite into stone. That bite is what makes you feel the narrow blade road of double bevel knives and adjust your angle in sharpening. I also recommend buying medium grade Ohira Tomae for double bevel knives. It has also good feedback and my stone was around #7000 grit,which is good as an aggressive finishing or progression stone for harder steel knives and as a finishing stone for softer steel knives.

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.

So it was no surprise that we jumped at the chance of stocking these very unusual takobiki blades from our good friend Mr. Masanobu Okada.

    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!

It is a well-made item at a very keen price.

    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.

They have recently added several new styles to their line which we are now stocking.

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 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.

    The classic Honesuki knife is designed to process poultry. The pointed tip and triangular shape make it a great blade to get into joints and between bone. However, it not meant to cut through bones. The blade is normally stiff and quite stout.

    This version, made by the father and son team at Okeya, adheres to the design principles of this style of the blade but unlike many Honesuki, 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.

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 Ginsan, or Silver 3, steel. The core steel is hardened to 61 HRC. The G3 inner core (hagane) is then covered with a layer of softer steel to protect and add strength. This outer layer (jigane) is given a very nice tsuchime hammered finish which is actually more visual than textural.

    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.

They are customarily stiff blades with very pointed tips and a triangular shape. While some are single sided, this Okeya Ginsan Honesuki is a 50/50 symmetrical ground blade. This makes it far easier to use and sharpen for most people.

    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.

They have recently expanded their line into more common kitchen knives like gyutos and santokus.

    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.

    This knife stupid sharp. I use it mostly for opening boxes and bags of onions and stuff. Keeps it’s edge pretty much no matter how hard you work it. Only problem is the handle.

The Okeya team have expanded their line of blades into kitchen knives like gyutos, santokus, and other styles. The bunka featured here is a good example of this new range of utensils.

    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!

Wishing to expand the business, they branched out into the world of kitchen knives. And we are glad they did!

    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.

They use only high quality materials, in this case Hitachi White Paper #2 steel, which is hardened to 60 HRC. The hagane (inner core) is covered with a layer of softer steel to protect and add strength. The jigane (outer layer) is given a very nice hairline finish.

    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 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.

Has a nice oak handle on it. 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.

    this is a great stone soak it for ten minutes or so and you have a stone that can easily get the knife "restaurant" sharp with proper use or like me use it to clean up bevels set by dmt’s and put a good edge on the knife before you make the next jump. This stone is so large you will probably be passing it down to your kids and it makes a beautiful red mud.

    this is my favorite 1000 grit of all time it is a huge I mean huge like the big green brick and cuts like crazy without dishing I actually see this stone lasting most people a lifetime,I usually follow up with a small jump to the naniwa big green brick to finish the profile and get some of the scratches out before I jump to higher grits it’s a great 1-2 punch to do it that way and marks service is unbelievable as usual.

    In 50 years of knife sharpening,I’ve accumulated probably every Japanese water stone on the market. And this 1000 grit red brick is as good as any of those,if not better than most. Every knife or tool sharpener should own one. Great price and fast shipping!

    This stone is amazing it’s the best 1k I’ve ever used. I just received this stone and have sharpened 3 knives and done tip repair in about 30 min tops. It’s almost a splash and go stone I haven’t soaked it for any period of time just spraying it as needed. It’s just slightly muddy which is what I wanted in a 1k it’s hard and cuts very fast but leaves a beautiful edge everything about this stone is perfect I will never need another 1k ever.

I've been a knife nut for as long as I can remember. Some of my earliest memories were of my grandpa sharpening his Case and Buck knives on an old, well-worn Arkansas stone. I was born in the rural mid-west so I grew up hunting, fishing and generally enjoying the outdoors- and of course, a sharp knife was central to all of those pursuits. I've spent most of my adult life working as a professional chef so I guess it was inevitable that I began to specialize in sharpening kitchen knives. I experienced an epiphany when I discovered Japanese knives, and shortly thereafter, synthetic Japanese water stones. It was about that time that I stumbled upon the many forums dedicated to knives & sharpening. There was a world of knowledge and experience I'd never imagined existed. Down the rabbit hole I went!

    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.

    Neat little thing to have around if you don’t drink wine and save the corks. Removes the burr with ease and since a lot more wine companies are going with synthetic cork now a days (which are to solid for me) nice little alternative.

    I haven’t seen any reason to have this. Maybe for very small burrs on softer steel blades. On harder steel blades with s significant burr I see no change after using it. For the price it’s worth a try though. Some like it. I’d suggest getting better at removing a burr with the stone you are already using.

    Let me cut it short. I was sceptical at first,but it works and it works better than a cork; especially when it is loaded with 1 Micron Baron Carbide Paste. You can cut into edges to de-burr,or as I figured out you can also de-burr hard-to-go wire edges by rubbing it to your edge with 10-15 degrees angle and do it in sections. Just imagine you are polishing your shoes with a pad. It is that sort of a motion I am talking about.

    This Hard Felt Deburring Block is excellent,not only for the intended use but also for polishing the blade.Cork is also good for deburring but not easy to find. I would highly recomend this item from Chefknivestogo. Mark and Sue are very nice and helpful and their shipping is FASSSSST.

    When I got this block a year or so ago I didn’t think it was of much use. I was trying to use it on large burrs that are easily removed with the stones. Where this item truely shines I’ve now found is for very small burrs when the edge is very sharp and a burr may be more difficult to detect. Now that I know how to use this tool I feel it is an essential tool for any sharpening setup.

It is a hotbed of blacksmithing talent. The Sakai method of knife making is based around a loose consortium of different smiths, sharpeners, finishers, and woodworkers. A knife will travel from blacksmith to sharpener and beyond based upon the desire of the customer and the availability of these different talents.

    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!

    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.

The yanagiba and usuba are the other two. These knives are customarily made with single-bevel grinds, as is the case with this fine example. Deba knives are designed and used for processing fish. Some users adapt them to poultry parting and cutting vegetables, but fish preparation is the real raison d'etre of this iconic knife.

    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.

    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.

    All of the knives in this collection are single-bevel style blades and are thus only fit for use by right-handed users. The blade is constructed from Hitachi White #2 high carbon steel core with a soft iron cladding for protection and added strength. They are reactive, so you must keep them clean and completely dry between uses. The simple ho-wood handle has a D-shaped profile and is attached to the blade with a buffalo horn ferrule. An excellent saya and pin complete the package.

    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.

    All of these knives are single bevel and are meant for left-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. The blade is constructed from a core of Hitachi White #2 steel with an iron cladding. They are reactive so you must keep them clean and completely dry between uses.

    This is a heavy and stout knife. It has a very thick blade measuring 8.8mm at the heel. The front face is given a primary bevel that extends almost all the way to the edge where a small micro bevel is applied. The backside has a very slight concave face which ends in a flat grind all round the sides. This aids in food release but does restrict the knife to left-hand users.

    Each knife comes with a custom made wooden saya with pin. Handles are Ho wood in an oval shape and have buffalo horn ferrules.

CKTG works with a small, specialized blacksmith shop to manufacture the Shirogami White #2 blades which we then send to a specialized knife sharpener for final sharpening and polishing. The blades are passed on to a local handle maker and engraver to finish the knives according to our specifications.

    The blade is made from the popular Hitachi White #2 carbon steel with a soft iron cladding. As such, it will corrode if not cared for properly. The inner core of White #2 steel takes and keeps a good edge and it is quite easy to sharpen. But do remember that this is a single bevel blade and as such it is only suitable for right-handed users!

    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.

    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.

Yanagi-ba or Yanagi is a long and very thin knife used in the Japanese kitchen, belonging to the group of Sashimi hōchō to prepare sashimi, sushi, sliced raw fish and seafood. In Japan, preparing sashimi and sushi is a task only undertaken by the most skilled and experienced chefs who follow methods and practices intended to minimize damage to the delicate flesh of the fish. There are very important conditions that the sliced cross section be smooth, shiny and sharp in a microscopic view. Those conditions cannot be met by other knives. Yanagi knives are especially designed to satisfy this very strict requirement.

    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.

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.

    Great starter kit. Hard to go wrong with Shapton GS. The diamond plate isn’t the greatest,but overall a good value and perfectly functional for stone flattening and coarse repair/reshaping.

    I previously had never sharpened my knives and this set has worked great for me at a relatively low cost. The stones are super easy to use,no soaking or anything. It is nice to have the holder,the other things I could do with or without.

    I was recommended this kit. I wanted to choose the 4 piece stone kit for over $300. If you’re just starting or on a budget this kit is great. One should know that 1k and 4k on these stones feel very fine but does a great job of sharpening. It almost felt as if had I bought 4 stone kit that it would have been buying unnecessary equipment.

Because wear is uneven the stones become dished with high and lows areas that diminish the precision of the resulting edge and decrease the size of the contact area between the stone and the blade thus slowing the cutting action.

    While I was familiar with the Shapton product,I was not familiar with Chef Knives to go. What a great treat to find a family owned business that has the best prices and personal service. I got what I wanted,when I wanted it and for a great price with friendly service. I was so impressed I posted the website on the woodworking school boards.

    No point owning a bunch of glass stones without this. Got mine today after putting it off for a while. Flat stones in about two minutes . Worth the initial outlay,renewed my four stones back to new again. Sharpening is now as quick as it can be,and more accurate.

    When I first started trying to sharpen my own knives,a few years ago,I purchased a Shapton GlassStone set-500,1,4,8K. In hindsight,I think it was a great starter set,& of these stones,the 1K definitely got the most use-a good starting point for factory edges that need refinement & also a base for knives that need further sharpening.

For users who need to cut the toughest of steels they can shorten the distance between stones by plugging the 2k in between a 1k and 4k making for short and effective sharpening sessions.

The stones are also extremely convenient to use since they do not require soaking, just a splash of water. The stone is mounted to a glass backing plate.

    This stone is fast and leaves a wicked good edge. For German knives,this is as far as I go. A Japanese knife will take this edge and keep it for a long time. 2000 grit Shapton is enough to make your factory edge seem dull. This stone can also be great for upkeep in between major sharpening. Very highly recommended.

Like all Shapton Glass stones this stone is designed to handle the most abrasion resistant steels with aplomb. The stone is renowned for cutting fast, wearing slowly, and giving extremely precise bevels and is coveted for requiring no soak, only a quick splash of water to get working.

    Just got my 220 in the mail today. Shipped in the usual "greased-lightning" time.



    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.

    Absolutely a beast of a stone. This will cut fast enough but you’ll still be able to jump straight to the 1k after this without a 500 stone. Highly recommended if you don’t own anything below 1,000 grit. If you have a 500 stone then a 220 would be the next lower stone. If you have a 120 or 220,the 320 is perfect to follow those up and get ready for 1,000. Very fast cutter,even without slurry,unlike the 220 and 120.

The 4k is often the first “fine” or “finishing” stone used. Following something in the 1k range, the 4k can produce a toothy but refined edge for a wide range of cutlery applications, or it can continue polishing an edge before stepping to an ultra-refined 8k or even 10k finish. The Shapton Glass 4k makes an excellent option in this grit range with the Shapton Glass line’s characteristic hardness helping produce precise edges, its fast cutting and slow dishing, and its splash and go convenience. 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 don’t think that most folks appreciate how great these glassstones are-the GS 4K is a perfect stone to follow your basic sharpening stones. The point I appreciate the most about the glassstones is how fast you can splash them(no soaking needed)-a big plus in a busy kitchen...

    This stone is amazing,it removes metal fast,it does not dish or at least takes a ling time to do dish. It is hard not soft like the Naniwas super stones. It does not need to be sprayed over and over,it creates a slurry. It seem to slow wear and stays flat no need to lap it,at least after 3 knives. But the one thing I like the most is how fast it is. I got the Naniwa Chosera 400 and I think the Shapton pro 320 is faster or maybe about the same.

    I had a coworker tease me for buying a $60 rock. I doubt he’ll have anything clever to say about my knives! It sharpens evenly and smoothly,unlike my cheap sushi supply stone,doesn’t require soaking and VERY fast steel removal--the swarf is BLACK. It raises a very workable burr and though it cuts fast,I don’t feel like the burr sneaks up on you,the stone is very consistent and gives good aural feedback,which helps a newbie like myself. The box does a good job,I just put it on a board mate so it won’t slip,and the holes in the bottom mean I can just let the stone dry a bit and store it away. I doubt I will buy any other stone for a long while.

    I own the 1k also and this is the best 1-2 punch on the market today. You can actually set the bevel if the knife isn’t too worn. Spend about 10 mins and than move on to the 2k and then you’re talking about some cutting,instant swarf and it set the first polish before you make the jump to the next grit of your choice. Splash and go,cut and shine,not overly expensive and the best part,mark and sue with their service who could ask for anything more. Happy cutting everybody. Shapton pro rules!

    I would give this 10 stars if I could. I believe it actually works better than the 1k but in succession it is a one two punch that can’t be beat. It cuts and polishes,for most home kitchens it might be all you need if you’re not picky and obsessive like most of you knife junkies,when this wears out I might buy 2 so I will never be without and when or if you want to jump to the 5k shapton than you will be carving roasts and birds like a pro. The only thing else that can be said is the super service from cktg every business should use their program as a template for their company. peace jmbullman

    My experience is Shapton Pro line is much better on carbon steel and tool steel knives than on common stainless steel knives. I also have 1k and 1.5k as medium stone,and 5k as finishing stone. They are all good and I use them almost exclusively for my carbon steel and tool steel (like steels similar to D2) double bevel knives. For example,shapton pro 1k,2k work great on my Yoshikane knives. Again,as always,it depends on how your knife interacts with your stone.

    I bought the Shapton Pro 2000 stone from you about a year ago. I’ve now used it 8-10 times on various kitchen knives (double edged euro-style chefs and slicers,and also a nice shiro-ko Yanagi [sushi slicer]) and I’m floored at how nice this stone is. It has a great "feel",and cuts surprisingly fast yet feels very smooth and controllable. I’m looking forward to rounding out my collection with the 1K,5K and 8K stones as soon as funds permit me to pick those up.

    Just like some of the other reviewers said,I would give 10 starts to this stone. It grinds metal very fast,I don’t know why but it seems to be faster than the shapton pro 1k.It doesn’t absorb water,the water just seems to stay like big drops on top of the stone. This stone is hard,nothing to do with slurry,it is a good finishing stone for the average kitchen knive. In the 2k-4k grit stones I already had the Norton 4k,shapton glass 4k and,Naniwa ss 3k; I think my Shapton pro 1k is going to be my favorite on that range.

    Hard to beat the shapton 8000 fine polish stone. Doesnt clog or dry up and leaves a finer scratch patten than other 8000 man made stones I have. The resign base ceramic matrix of course make it feels more artififial than other non ceramic made stones...so the slurry is less natural and the feedback different..but makes fast work of polishing my japanese plans and chisels.

We will be providing warranty support if you have issues with them. The name of the Pro stones is Kuromaku Professional and these are the same stones as the old Shapton Professionals.

    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.

    No need to soak. This stone works like a charm. It creates a very consistent surface that’s ready for quick hone.

    One of the best cutting medium stones I have ever used I use this stone rite after my 600 chosera and all you have to do is splash and cut. It builds a quick burr and to top it off the case serves as a holder while u sharpen. When it wears out which I don’t see that happening any time soon I will buy another hands down the best 1000 for the money.

    received this and the 5k as a gift. I have never sharpened a knife on a stone before. I have watched many videos though. sharpened an old chicago cutlery knife in 10 minutes to a working edge. next sharpened a house knife that had been used daily for 8 months with no sharpening. another matter of minutes and it was back to slicing. I loved it. feels great. no gouges so far. builds my confidence to eventually sharpen my own knives. dries fast. handy case/holder. all color coded.

    Very fast cutter,it dish very slow. This stone does not seem to wear. It is hard,and does not need to presoak. It is a perfect finish stone for an average kitchen knive,and it is the perfect bevel setter for straigth razors. It cuts steel real fast with a nice finish. It feels and cuts steel like a Chosera because it is a hard stone. I’d buy it again

    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 1500 hones very well and leaves a finer scratch pattren than the 1000. It is a little slower to get a burr but not much slower. After getting a sharp edge I can go to my 5000 grit stone without needing a coarser intermiate middle stone.

    The Shapton Pro 5000 grit stone is a light,compact,and easy to carry high quality "splash and go" sharpening stone that comes in a in a protective case. It works great in combination with the Shapton Pro 1,000 or 1,5000 grit stones. You can use it for minor edge repair and to maintain a sharp edge. When combined with the Shapton Pro 1,000 grit stone,it is a fantastic "one-two" punch portable sharpening solution for knife kits. A perfect addition to knife kits for culinary students and chefs alike.

    Number 3 on the list and once again does not fail to impress. Once again cuts very quickly and leaves behind a crisp edge with still good bite to it. Splash and go so always a plus. Dishes really slowly so no need to constantly flatten.

    Very nice stone. It’s about half as thick as my Chosera stones,but very nice nonetheless. The stone is nice and hard and pulls metal instantly. The splash-and-go non-soaking quality is great. This 15K might not be as legendary as the Chosera 10K,but its a fraction of the price and a great finishing block for sure. I have a combo of Chosera and and Sharpton Pros. 400,800,1000,3000,5000 are Chosera and the 220,8000 and 15000 are Sharpton. I’d highly recommend either brand,but do prefer the "feel" of the Chosera. If you are looking north of 5K then these Pros are your best bet!



    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 Sharpening Pond is made with high quality materials to give a dedicated, enclosed area for sharpening.

    Many won’t be willing to pay for something as simple as a commercially-built pond,but this one is really nice. It’s big enough to contain a large amount of water/slurry and a couple of stone holders simultaneously,yet the sides are low enough to not interfere with sharpening,at least when using the Shapton stone holders. It also makes a nice place to store a stone holder or two,several stones,and a lapping plate.

    I really enjoy the holder. It is well worth the wait for the manufacturer to improved the product. I also appreciated being kept up to date on the status during this improvement period.

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.

    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.

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.

He is one of the best sharpeners we know and that ability is so important when making knives from this material that are as thin as these.

    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!

His first line of kitchen knives have a very distinctive design philosophy which can best be explained by the master himself:

    “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!

These are the same alloys but the SG-2 brand is resold and rebranded by Takefu Specialty Steels. We don't have a saya that fits this knife.

    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

The Shibata Kotetsu line of knives are made using a core of R-2 stainless powder steel covered with an outer layer of a softer stainless alloy. The inner core is hardened to a HRC rating of 62-63. This 2-steel combination is easier to sharpen, keeps its edge longer, and it resists damage better.

    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.”

    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.

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. It is perfect for those wishing to do their “sushi thing” without the added complexity of using and maintaining a single bevel blade.

    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.

This new knife also has that classic reverse short sword tip but with a more pronounced angle and point.

    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!

In the Sakai tradition, it is a small, thinner deba knife, with a single bevel. In the Tosa region, it became common to give the knives a double bevel and use them as a gyuto would be used. Our latest blacksmith find, Shindo san, works and resides in Tosa, so his rendition of the funayuki follows in the local tradition.

    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.

Honesukis are knives that are primarily intended for processing poultry and other birds. They can, of course, be used in other circumstances based on your needs and likes.

    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 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.

    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.

They can vary significantly in both profile and size, running anywhere from 75mm to 210mm in length. As they are similar to the common western version of the knife, they are adept at many small and detailed cutting tasks. Petty knives are also a great tool for preparing garnishes and other artistic cutting operations. The Enjin SRK8 Tall Petty 120mm is designed with a slightly taller profile for extra finger-to-board clearance.

    This pretty petty is the perfect choice for in-hand cutting and getting into tight spaces and around obstacles. It also works well as an herb chopper. The short blade adds rigidity and stiffness resulting in a quick, easy to control implement.

    Blacksmith Shindo san makes these knives out of a steel known as SRK8. This interesting alloy is not used a lot in the industry but that may change as people get to appreciate its qualities. Similar to Hitachi White #2, this steel can take and hold a really nice edge. It is slightly tougher than White #2 with the addition of small amounts of chrome and nickel.

    A good-looking burnt oak wood handle with an urushi finish completes this very nice (and nicely priced) package.

The size, weight, and responsiveness of this size knife make it a perfect choice for chefs looking to own just one good blade—a blade fit for almost every purpose. The Shiro Kamo 210mm gyuto is such a knife. The inner core of SG2 steel is one reason for this. SG2 is a great alloy for kitchen knives because it can be heat treated to a fairly high level, 63 HRC in this case. Yet it sharpens with relative ease and holds an edge as well as most steels. The softer outer layers of stainless steel contribute to the knife’s strength and resilience. Some rather tasty etching reveals the layers in a dramatic semi-matte fashion which aids in food release and just looks so cool!

    The Kamo is no laser, yet it is still a light knife for its size. The lightness translates into a blade that is stiff and responsive. The blade length runs a bit longer than the 210mm specification.

    The Shiro Kamo gyuto has a nice rounded belly and comes with an edge that is fairly sharp right out of the box. This is a great-looking knife that is a breeze to maintain and a joy to use. The classy-looking wa octagonal handle perfectly complements the blade in terms of both looks and balance.

    We are really happy to be able to once again offer these great knives to our customers.

    The Kamo SG2 bunka is a lovely kitchen knife that features some stunning damascus work, and fit and finish that are as good as it gets. The very talented blacksmith, Kamo-san, works wonders with R2 stainless steel, turning it into some beautiful pieces of functional art.

    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.

    Two of the outstanding attributes of Shiro Kamo knives are their great grinds and out-of-the-box sharpness. The nicely finished spine and choil are well executed and reflect the care and attention that has been devoted to the making of this fine piece of cutlery. The package is completed with a great-looking wa octagonal handle.

    R2 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 63 HRC. The outer layer of soft stainless steel is applied in layers and then etched to reveal the lovely semi-matte damascus pattern. Because of this 100% stainless construction, there is no need to be concerned with corrosion or discoloration.

    These small gyutos are perfect for home cooks and the 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 finely crafted series of SG2 alloy kitchen knives is a testament to his skills and dedication to his art.

    Art is a suitable adjective to describe this great looking gyuto. The stunning damascus look is achieved by forging multiple layers of stainless steel over the core of SG2 alloy. The knife is constructed in the san-mai style so one can see these layers when viewing the spine of the blade from above. The upper portion of the blade is etched to reveal the cladding and the lower portion is ground to achieve the fine edge and further reveal more of the hagane. It is a lovely look that, together with the nicely chiseled kanji script, results in a dramatic-looking blade, high in aesthetic value.

    240mm gyutos are the standard chef knives in many kitchens. They are all-around workhorses capable of processing almost any ingredient. The Kamo gyuto is a fairly light blade, but no laser, with a medium height and thickness. It has a sharp and precise feel to it. The profile is quite flat with a small amount of belly for those rocking cuts. Fit and finish are very good indeed with a nicely rounded choil and spine.

    The stainless construction ensures that daily maintenance will be kept to a minimum while a high degree of edge sharpness is attainable with little effort. We think you will love this knife as it's one of our favorites!

The jigane (outer layer) is etched to reveal a lovely semi-matte pattern. Some fine kanji script is chiseled into the blade to enhance the handsome aesthetic.

    SG2 is powdered steel that exhibits really good strength, excellent wear resistance, and the ability to take a very sharp edge. It's made by Takefu Specialty Steels.

    The Shiro Kamo nakiri featured here is a really fine knife. While the knife is quite light, it is still a stiff and responsive blade, but certainly not a laser. The blade thickness is fairly stout at the neck but thins down to a fine edge and tip. The profile is almost dead flat with just a hint of curvature to the belly. The tip is rounded to allow for a slight rocking action. The overall fit and finish are as good as any in its price range (and better than most). The same goes for the out of the box edge sharpness.

    If you seek a blade with character or “soul,” a knife that can handle a multitude of ingredients, and you want to experience the latest in easy to maintain metallurgy, then the Shiro Kamo Nakiri would be a perfect choice.

Shiro Kamo knives are made by Master Blacksmith Kamo-san from Takefu Village in Japan. It's rare to find blacksmiths who excel with both grinding and forging but Kamo-san is one of them. He works with a very small crew of just two other workmen. While many shops farm their blades out to various workmen for the different stages of manufacture, Kamo-san keeps these operations in-house and under his personal supervision.

    The petty featured here is a wonderful blade that can double as a petty or paring knife. It is the perfect implement for making intricate garnishes. Constructed from SG2 (R2) powdered stainless steel with a softer stainless steel cladding in a Damascus style, the face etching is very well realized and reveals a lovely pattern from the cladding layers. This is a light blade but one that feels strong in the hand. Edge sharpness out of the box is excellent, as are the overall fit and finish.

    This is a really fun knife and one that will surprise you in its abilities to perform many tasks around the kitchen. It’s also a great and inexpensive way to experience SG2 steel.

Constructed from SG2 (R2) powdered stainless steel with a softer stainless steel cladding in a Damascus style, the face etching is very well realized and reveals a lovely pattern from the cladding layers. This is a light blade but one that feels strong in hand. Edge sharpness out of the box is excellent, as are the overall fit and finish.

    This is a really fun knife and one that will surprise you in its abilities to perform many tasks around the kitchen. It’s also a great and inexpensive way to experience SG2 steel.

This finely crafted series of SG2 alloy kitchen knives is a testament to his skills and dedication to his art.

    Art is a suitable adjective to describe this great looking sujihiki. The stunning damascus look is achieved by forging multiple layers of stainless steel over the core of SG2 alloy. The knife is constructed in the san-mai style so one can see these layers when viewing the spine of the blade from above. The upper portion of the blade is etched to reveal the cladding and the lower portion is ground to achieve the fine edge and further reveal more of the hagane. It is a lovely look that, together with the nicely chiseled kanji script, results in a dramatic-looking blade, high in aesthetic value.

    270mm sujihikis are the standard slicing knives of choice in many kitchens. They are all-around slicers capable of processing almost most ingredients. The Kamo sujihiki is a fairly light blade, but no laser, with a medium height and thickness. It has a sharp and precise feel to it. The profile is quite flat with a small lifted tip.Fit and finish are very good indeed.

    The stainless construction ensures that daily maintenance will be kept to a minimum while a high degree of edge sharpness is attainable with little effort. We think you will love this knife as it's one of our favorites!

    The blade shape is fairly conventional for this type of knife, featuring a fine tip and slight belly and it will excel with push and pull cutting. We are now supplying these knives with a beautiful sandalwood D-shaped handle with a black pakkawood ferrule. This is a really fun knife and one that will surprise you with its ability to perform many tasks around the kitchen. It’s also a great and inexpensive way to experience White #2 steel. For care please wash after using and towel dry completely to avoid rust.

One-piece extends from one edge of the blade table to the other, while the center piece slides back and forth independently and can lock in to position to accommodate a wide variety of blade shapes and sizes. It works well by itself, but when combined with a magnetized blade table it makes sharpening on the Edge Pro easier than ever before. The Slide Guide is machined from 6061 T6 aluminum, and has a .002"" thick hard anodized coating to protect it from wear and tear over time. A high quality accessory to add to your arsenal of sharpening supplies.

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.

    While a little more than the two-rod "universal" holders,this one is a lot easier to adjust as the nut spins easily on the shaft and noticeably more stable (it’s wider as well as longer). Well worth the modest difference in price.

    Solid stone holder,doesn’t want to slide around and the single bar makes it pretty easy to swap between different sized stones. My only gripe is that the rubber that holds the stone at the front and back is pretty tall and the shapton glass stones only slightly peer over the top of this. This isn’t a problem now,but years down the road this could prove problematic to flattening your stones and sharpening your knives. If you exclusively use Shapton glass stones or other thin stones,spring for a nicer stone holder,otherwise this is a great investment for those of you who are sick of your stones sliding around on wet towels

    I must admit that my sharpening skill is not equal to this stone. I started off with a bestor 1200 and this suhiro rica 5000. Yes,I do get good edges with this as a polishing stone. In the process I have given this stone divits and have not flattened it yet. Yes I need to flatten it but I am on a budget. This is a softer stone and it takes practice to be able to sharpen on it without cutting gouges in the stone. Learn your blade angles on harder stones. Lately,I have been much better at holding an angle. But I am fully willing to admit it is not the stones fault. It is my fault.



    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!

    The suehiro rika 5000 grit waterstone is a great stone and cuts extremely quickly,generating a good amount of slurry (which is good!). I use this as an intermediate stone between my random 1000 grit stone of unknown brand and origin,and the kitayama 8000 grit stone and does a fantastic job of sharpening.

    Great Stone! I bought it because of the positive reviews and the low price. After putting my knives on a MinoSharp 1k stone,I can finish on this stone and get an edge that will shave my arm effortlessly.

    The feedback on the stone is awesome and the edge is even better. Couldn’t recomment this stone any more.

    This is a great fine grit stone. Puts a near mirror finish on my double bevels (white #2 carbon AND vg-10 stainless). I also use it every morning to touch up microbevels. It laps easily,doesn’t dish too fast,and has great feedback. I’d call it a good balance between hardness and softness. I’ve been sharpening with whetstones for about a year now and I’ll say I would have preferred to start with this as my first fine stone rather than the 6000 grit side of the steelex style combo stone. Since this seems to be wearing none to quickly (i’ve been using it for about 6 weeks,lapping it a couple times a week),I’m happy to continue practicing with this stone for quite some time and may even re-up when the time comes. In addition,since I use a stone holder,I’m glad that this was available here without the base. The wooden base version seems to be much more common.

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 matches perfectly with the magnolia octagonal handle and a traditional black buffalo horn ferrule.

    This Sukenari has a double-sided edge that is 50/50 and has a nice Kiri tip. In fact, the very fine blade and thin profile go together to create a knife that is very nimble and easy to use. It's a blade fit for almost all uses. The knife has a versatile profile with a sizable sweet spot for chopping, a gentle belly for rock cutting, and a thin pointed tip for detail work.

    We are making some of these formidable blades available with very nice rosewood octagonal handles that use buffalo horn ferrules.

    If I could give this one four and a half stars I would- it really works well! For years I’ve carried a couple big ol’ green art erasers (like you used in kindergarten) in my work knife case to clean my ceramic "steels." They work pretty well but are a little messy- the crumbs get everywhere. Plus,they wear down pretty fast. Not the Superaser,though! It cleans much more thoroughly than an art eraser but creates minimal waste. And it doesn’t wear much.



    Eventually you should hit the ceramics with Comet or Barkeeper’s Friend but this little doodad will let you go many months between thorough cleanings. Highly recommended!

    This product is perfect for keeping your ceramic rods clean and free of metal. I used to use a big green art eraser,but it was messy and wore pretty fast. The Super Eraser works at least as well but is much more durable. After cleaning two moderately loaded rods I could detect no wear.



    A very good product at a terrific price. Very handy to have!

    Cleans quickly as expected. Although not necessary to use after each honing,it’s easier if you do.

    Magnets the size of a 2 inch cube or larger can cause serious damage to fingers if caught between 2 magnets such as breaking bones or losing finger tips.

    Neodymium magnets are brittle; they can be broken or can splinter in a collision. One should wear gloves and protective glasses when handling these magnets, because splinters and/or spacers could disengage and fly from the magnets.

    Normal Neodymium magnets will lose their magnetic properties if heated above 175 degrees F (80 degrees C). Higher temperature rare earth neodymium magnets are available in our store.

    The strong magnetic fields of neodymium magnets can damage items such as television, computer monitors, credit cards, bank cards, computers, diskettes and other data carriers, video tapes, mechanical watches, hearing aids, loud speakers and VCRs. Pace-makers may be damaged or switch to ""Test Mode"" in the presence of a strong magnetic force, if a pace-maker is in use, keep a minimum of 3 feet distance.

    Children should not be allowed to handle neodymium magnets as they can be dangerous. Small magnets pose a choking hazard and should never be swallowed or inserted into any part of the body.

    Under no circumstances should you try to cut, saw or drill the Neodymium magnets! Not only would the magnet break, but the resulting dust from the magnet is very flammable. Neodymium magnets should never be burned, as burning them will create toxic fumes.

    Ingenious little addition to the EP. I suggest buying two of them as there’s just enough room to squeeze two of them underneath the Apex table,doubling your holding power. The only drawback i’ve found is that it’ll collect metal dust from reprofiling which can scratch up your blade if you don’t wipe the table clean or change your blue tape often.

    These magnets (I am using 2) really help to hold the knife in place. You still have to make sure your knife is held in the correct position. I do worry that the magnet will interfere with the angle cube (these magnets are not supposed to be used near computers),but it does not SEEM to interfere with the readings.

They have a deft feel and tall blades which endow the knives with a great deal of versatility in their 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. They have become a very popular alternative to the classic Western chef knife or small gyuto.

    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.

    First off all,this is the thinnest knife i’ve ever seen,its ridiculous how thin its behind the spine,the shape it self has an aggressive tip and a nice tapper towards it,heck its even thinner than my second moritaka petty which i use for fine details. the blade profile its amazing,i love that even though it’s not clad,it has a cool pattern towards the edge,edge OTB is amazing,i did strop it a bit on a 10,000k naniwa after a couple of uses and it has kept amazingly sharp. Fit and finish is unreal for this price. Haven’t work it through a whole sharpening cycle,still havent figured out how im going to proceed with this one since its powdered steel,i think i will go mainly through shaptons and finish at 10,000k for a polished edge,i will write down another review when i do so. nevertheless for the price,this knife outperforms all the vg10 i own,it is my second to go knife since i love my aogami super ones,but it’s growing a lot on me,I only wish we could get a wa version,and/or a 120mm petty for service,i would not hesitate in get one right away

    As other reviewers have stated this knife is insanely thin. The fit and finish is great but some may find the handle is a bit small. I use a pinch grip so this is not a big deal for me. Long story short if I let somebody I work with use this knife they are amazed and begin to rethink what sharp really means.

    This knife is a scalpel. Takes the most unreal steep edge due to it’s ridiculously hard steel. Thinnest chives in the world,can take apart octopus,slice sushi,anything that you need a fine edge for. Lasting 2 weeks in a high pressure kitchen between sharpening. A good strop/hone brings it right back.

    This knife is so sharp OTB that it has made me question the sharpening skills. My other knives don’t compare. It’s pretty amazing. But when I look at the edge,it’s a mess. nicks,flakes of metal,wandering edge. Lost a star for that would have been 2 or 3 off except it’s so dang sharp. If it’s this sharp now,I can’t imagine it once I’ve had a chance to sharpen it up right.

    My new Takayuki arrived yesterday. It really is a beautiful blade with little refinements that set it apart from any of my other knives. In terms of style it is most like my 240mm Kanehiro in weight and balance. In other words,it’s a knife of considerable heft. And,if this knife is any indication,I’d say the sharpness gap between carbon and stainless has really narrowed. I can’t yet speak to how well it will hold its edge,but it’s clear it can be made very sharp. The Magnolia wood handle is larger than any other Wa-gyuto in the block,and it is closer to square shaped than rectangular on the wide faces. I personally like the size,but I guess someone with small hands might find it bulky. I’ve only used the knife for one dinner prep,but it performed flawlessly. I have to admit that I currently use thinner,lighter blades most of the time,and the added weight and thickness took some adjusting to. At times I thought,"This blade is just too thick to make a thin,clean cut," but it delivered that cut every time. I’d highly recommend this knife to anyone looking for something special in a stainless blade.

Sakai City is a city located in Osaka Prefecture, Japan, on the edge of Osaka Bay at the mouth of the Yamato River. It has been one of the largest and most important seaports of Japan since the medieval era. It is now home to some of the most famous knife makers in the world.

    The city boasts a network of small artisan shops that focus exclusively on different tasks of the knife making process, such as grinding, handle making, and engraving. The Takayuki Damascus knives featured here are made by blacksmith Suogo Yamatsuka and grinder/sharpener Hirotsugu Tosa.

    This elegant knife is made with a core of Silver-3 or Ginsanko that is clad with a 63-layer damascus stainless steel. The knife runs shorter than the advertised length, coming in at 232mm. But coupled with a height of 46mm, it is a well-proportioned gyuto that will appeal to most users. The grinds are truly stellar, as befitting a knife finished by the great Tosa-san.

    This is a very fine cutting instrument in all regards. In both form and function, it stands with some of the best. Very limited availability.

    I have owned this knife for over six months. The Ginsan steel holds an edge longer than I need and gets almost as sharp as white #1,sometime I think it gets sharper. The only knock on this knife is the 8oz weight,but maybe that is from the hand forge process. I was unable to duplicate the stiction free demo in the video. That said the knife isn’t "sticky" like production knives.

    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.

They are typically stout, short blades with a very pointed tip. The most unusual aspect of the hankotsu is its heel design. The blade transforms straight into the handle or bolster, so there is absolutely no knuckle clearance if using on a cutting board. This 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. Hankotsu knives also have an edge that is not sharpened all the way to the handle, for safety reasons.

    The Takayuki company makes this knife out of Bohler N690 stainless steel. It is a mono-steel design, so there is no cladding over the core. The steel is hardened to about 60HRC. This is a great Swedish stainless steel that is well-liked in the knife industry for its rugged and easy-to-maintain characteristics.

    An excellent quality knife ootb. I especially like its thick rugged pakkawood handle. The knife is very sharp,i have not had a chance to tackle some big meats with it. just a few small snappers to which it fileted with ease. it has a thick spine with rounded edges,cant say exact width,but it can definitely withstand some beating and popping of large bones. My exec even said these are rare knives to find and great to have in your kit. Haven’t gotten around to put it to a stone,then we’ll really see how this steel rates. Pick one up if you handle boney meats on the daily,if they’re in stock that is.

    Great for most butchering tasks. Used it to bone out some strip loins. Also great for poultry. Edge retention is good. Great service as usual from Mark.

    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.

The added height, compact dimensions, and reverse tanto tip add up to a kitchen utensil of extreme versatility. It is a wonder tool for most cutting and slicing tasks around the kitchen. Its shorter length makes it easy to handle and a great choice for smaller boards and hands. The shape also gives the knife a rigid and superbly controlled feel.

    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.

He is the son of the famed blade maker Keijiro Doi and has been making top-shelf knives for many years. Following in such illustrious footsteps can be a daunting task, but Itsuo-san has more than accounted for himself in this industry.

    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.

One look at this blade is all you need to see that we have succeeded finding another of these unique knives.

    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.

    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.

These knives have a very sleek and simple beauty that features a graceful curved blade edge and a spine that is straight all the way to the tip.

    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.

These tough, and good-looking knives are the product of years of research and age-old craftsmanship conjoined over 600 years of knife making.

    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.

Their multi-purpose abilities have engendered themselves to becoming a favorite with many chefs both professional and on the home front. The sharp edge of the blade is used for cutting, while the blunter top edge is used to pound and tenderize meat. Turned on its side, the cleaver is an excellent tool for smashing garlic and ginger. You can even use it to transfer food from cutting board to pan. These knives are probably the most popular blade style in the world and for good reason.

    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.

Sakai Takayuki is located in Sakai/Osaka Prefecture. They manufacture a huge variety of kitchen knives encompassing many steel types, construction techniques, and blade styles. The Inox line of cutlery are price-conscious knives that are made with a stainless steel the makers call Inox. The word is actually a catchall for any stainless steel containing a minimum of 10.5% chromium by mass. In the case of this knife, the steel is actually AUS8A, a high carbon molybdenum steel which is very corrosion resistant.

    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.

The first blades made in the region were actually made to cut tobacco. These days, the deba is primarily used to clean and fillet fish and dress poultry and other proteins. Its most obvious feature is its very thick spine and heavyweight. 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 several varieties including the longer Mioroshi-deba, the shorter Ko-deba, and the medium-sized Ai-deba.

    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 actual stainless alloy is a proprietary secret but it is a full stainless alloy that is stamp-cut to produce the mono-steel blade. It possesses excellent edge retention and is relatively easy to sharpen. This do-it-all chef knife will be easy to maintain on a daily basis especially compared to carbon steel-based blades. This knife would be a good choice for chefs who need a rugged, versatile cutting machine at an attractive price.

    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.

During this time they have amassed a wealth of knowledge which has been passed on from generation to generation while being added to by these successive master craftsmen. The company was recently taken over and has since been reinvented with the addition of cutting edge technology to their existing knowledge base.

    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.

They have been making blades for over 600 years and have products that span the entire spectrum of kitchen knife styles, constructions, and price points.

    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.

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.

    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.

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 cell destruction to the fish. 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.

    The Takayuki Inox Yanagiba 300mm is a classic yanagiba with a twist. It is constructed from a stainless steel that the makers dubbed Inox. In fact the alloy is AUS8A which is a high carbon molybdenum steel which is very corrosion resistant. It is also capable of taking and maintaining a very sharp edge. The knife thus offers the user a wonderful traditional cutting tool that comes without the need of the heavy maintenance customarily required with carbon steel blades.

    The hand forged blade is beautifully finished with a semi-satin look and some lovely chiseled Kanji elements. It is fitted with a well-made traditional D-shaped ho wood handle which has a buffalo horn ferrule.

    This is wonderful knife for any user entering the world of traditional Japanese blades. It is well made, easy to maintain, and comes at a very reasonable price point. Highly recommended.

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.

    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 left-handed users. It is coupled to a well-made traditional D-shaped ho wood handle which has a buffalo horn ferrule.

Yanagiba knives are one of the three basic knife styles employed in Japanese professional kitchens, together with the deba and the usuba. 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 cell destruction to the fish. 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.

    The Takayuki Inox Yanagiba 300mm is a classic yanagiba with a twist. It is constructed from stainless steel that the makers dubbed Inox. In fact, the alloy is AUS8A which is a high carbon molybdenum steel that is very corrosion resistant. It is also capable of taking and maintaining a very sharp edge. The knife thus offers the user a wonderful traditional cutting tool that comes without the need of the heavy maintenance customarily required with carbon steel blades.

    The hand-forged blade is beautifully finished with a semi-satin look and some lovely chiseled Kanji elements. It is fitted with a well-made traditional D-shaped ho wood handle which has a buffalo horn ferrule.

    This is wonderful knife for any user entering the world of traditional Japanese blades. It is well made, easy to maintain, and comes at a very reasonable price point. Highly recommended.

Odd shapes, unusual materials, and out of the box techniques all pique our interest. So it was an easy ask to take on this new line of knives from one of the most popular Japanese kitchen knife makers, Sakai Takayuki.

    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.

VG-10 is sometimes called V-Gold 10 and it is arguably the most commonly used stainless steel in the Japanese kitchen knife industry. The word Nanairo means seven colors in Japanese and this refers to the multi colored handles they are using on the knives. Some VG-10 knives can be harder to sharpen than 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.

    For many home cooks the 210mm gyuto is the number one choice, the most valuable tool in their kitchen. This is the knife that you can reach for time after time, task after task. With this blade length these chef’s knives are a perfect tool in any kitchen. They can tackle just about any cutting or chopping task. 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.

Their products span the entire gamut of kitchen cutlery. In 1982, Takayuki received the high honor of having their knives designated as Traditional Arts and Crafts.

    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 santoku knife blends attributes of a gyuto and western chef knife with a unique blade geometry that utilizes a sheep's foot tip. A sheep's foot tip comes from drawing the spine of the knife down to the front and tip, so there is 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 rocking motion. ""Santoku"" translates to Three Virtues. This is a perfect word to describe the three cutting tasks which the knife performs well: slicing, dicing, and mincing.

    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.

He is considered to be one of the best blade smiths in Japan and his work is sought out by both kitchen knife enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.

    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.

    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.

They are long enough to tackle most fish sizes while being short enough for tighter spaces. The long length is important for making the slice in one movement. A sawing action will deform the piece while damaging the fragile cell structure of the fish. Conversely, the more compact dimensions of this 270mm make for easier maintenance and sharpening.

    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.

He is considered one of the best bladesmiths in Japan and his work is sought out 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.

Tokujuo knives are made with the care and precision demanded by Japanese professional cooks. The blade is forged from top quality shirogami #2 (white paper #2) steel using a ni-mai construction, and a traditionally ground single bevel—so these are for right-handed users only.

    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.

In more than looks too. This VG-10 based utility knife is a well-made kitchen cutter that is easy to maintain and care for. VG-10 is the most used stainless steel in Japanese stainless kitchen knife industry, for good reason. Chief among them are the great stain resistance of the steel and its ability to take a very sharp edge. Some VG-10 knives can be harder to work on the stones but the smiths at Takayuki have originated a special tempering technique which results in a hardness of 60 HRC while making the knife much easier to sharpen. The VG-10 core is clad with a fine looking soft stainless steel damascus layering that receives a tsuchime or hammered finish.

    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 current version of the company was established in 1946, and has since become one of the biggest manufacturers of Japanese knives in the world. Their products span the entire gamut of kitchen cutlery. In 1982, Takayuki received the high honor of having their knives designated as Traditional Arts and Crafts.

    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.

Kengata blades have a classic Japanese sword-like tip, so they fall into this category perfectly. The combination of the reverse tanto tip and the short, almost santoku profile results in a blade that is versatile, easy to wield, and very stout.

    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.

It is made from the very popular stainless steel known as VG-10. The name stands for V Gold 10, or sometimes V-Kin-10 (kin means ""gold"" in Japanese) and it is by far the most popular stainless alloy used in the making of Japanese kitchen knives.

    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.

However they are also a good choice for many other cutting tasks around the kitchen. They differ from the Japanese deba in their shape, as they have a straight blade edge suitable for cutting all the way to the cutting board without the need for a horizontal pull or push. They are also much thinner than the deba, with a taller blade height.

    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 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.

    I’d first heard of Sakai Takayuki Knives a couple of years ago,but they’ve been remarkably hard to track down. Needless to say,I was ecstatic when I saw them on Chefknivestogo. Not only did Mark stock the slightly more available Inox series,but the hammered damascus series as well! So ordering it was a bit of a no brainer.



    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.

    I had been looking for a Nakiri blade for awhile when my brother handed me an amazing Chef’s Knife delivered straight from Japan. It turned out to be a Sakai Takayuki product,more specifically,a 210mm Hammered Damascus Chef’s knife. I loved from the first time using it! I knew about ChefKnivestogo.com prior to receiving this gift and I couldn’t believe it when I saw that they carried this high end line,and more specifically,they had a 160mm Nakiri with a 50/50 bevel (important for us south paws) IN STOCK!!



    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 knife is a true looker. It was the second Japanese made knife I purchased. I own more wonderful Japanese knives now but find myself reaching for this beauty often. Out of the box it was an absolute razor. Shaved half the hair of one of my arms showing it off to friends. If your looking for a Nakiri in the $100.00 range don’t hesitate.

    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 results in a knife that favors less rocking motion. ""Santoku"" translates to Three Virtues. This is a perfect word to describe the three cutting tasks which the knife performs well: slicing, dicing, and mincing.

    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.

The company is now owned by Aoki-Hamano Seisakusho, whose aim is to pass on traditional techniques while incorporating modern methods and materials. They truly want the world to know that their knives are not tools, but rather crafted items filled with the spirit of blade smiths and sharpening artisans.

    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.

    This knife came out of the box with a razor edge. The feel and use is superior to anything I’ve used. Like it’s part of me... I will be buying others.

This great-looking sujihiki is made from the ever-popular VG-10 stainless steel. VG-10 is sometimes called V-Gold 10, and it is arguably the most commonly used stainless steel in the Japanese kitchen knife industry. There are several reasons for this, primary among them are its exceptional stain resistance and its ability to take a very sharp edge. Some VG-10 knives can be harder to sharpen than 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.

    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.

    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."|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|"Resources For Knife Collectors Takeda Knives Knife Brands Takeda Knives Shop by Steel Aogami Super Steel Takeda Knives Knife Types Japanese Knives Takeda Knives Accessories Add On Items "|||""|"https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/takeda-hamono-coin-99.png"|"https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/chefknivestogo/takeda-coin-96.png"|""|""|""|""|""||| takeda-knives||ITEM.|"Takeda Knives"|"http://chefknivestogo.stores.turbify.net/takeda-knives.html"|""|||T|""|""|""|""|""|"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).

    Third-generation blacksmith Shosui Takeda is renowned for his work using Aogami Super Steel to make his iconic kitchen knives. Takeda knives are instantly recognizable due to their kurouchi finish and unusually tall blade height. The combination of these design elements lends the knives a weapon-like appearance.

    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.

Shosui Takeda, representing the 3rd generation of Takeda blacksmiths, is making some of the most unique performance knives on the market from his small shop in Niimi. The Stainless series employs the same Aogami Super steel found in Takeda’s Classic line. The AS is then clad in soft stainless steel, which makes these knives almost as easy to care for as fully stainless alternatives, yet they retain the performance associated with finer-grained carbon steels.

    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.

    After much research,I decided to invest in the Takeda Nakiri. The reviews and history of Takeda knives certainly did not disappoint. I don’t need to rehash all the wonderful features but I will mention how I store this knife. I certainly recommend that after use and cleaning it be stored on a magnetic strip with nothing touching the edge. This will insure proper air circulation for drying.

    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.

    This knife is a joy to use. I like to think of this knife as the project car. It’s "all there." But it needs lots of work on the stones. The handle is not that great.

    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 :)

We particularly like that he uses the traditional methods to make all of his knives.

    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.

The fit and finish is of a high grade and the grinds are very well executed. They are made from Shirogami 2 high carbon steel which is hammer forged san-mai style with a soft iron cladding. This popular alloy has very good edge holding and very high working hardness. This means that it can be ground to exceptional sharpness, which it retains for a long time. These blades are prone to oxidation, which means care must be taken to keep them clean and dry between uses.

    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.

It can also serve as a poultry butchering knife. The deba first appeared during the Edo period in Sakai. 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.

    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.

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).

    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.

Located in Osaka Prefecture, Japan, on the edge of Osaka Bay, Sakai City sits at the mouth of the Yamato River. Sakai has been one of the largest and most important seaports of Japan since the Medieval era. Once known for samurai swords, Sakai is now famous for the quality of its kitchen knives. Most high-quality Japanese cutlery originates in Sakai, and knife production is now the major industry in the city.

    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.

Their dead flat edge contacts the board at all points so that accordion cuts are avoided. The name usuba translates to thin edge. The fine blade and slender spine minimize the crushing of the vegetable's fibers, leaving a sharp shiny surface on the cut side. This is also the knife style used by experienced chefs to perform the difficult ""katsuramuki"" rotary peeling technique.

    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.

They usually run from 210mm up to 360mm and over! Yanagibas are used for slicing fish and other proteins and are therefore preferred with a long blade. The main reason for this is a desire to make the slice in one movement, thus performing a perfect cut while disturbing the ingredient as little as possible. At 210mm this knife is perfect for home chefs or instances where space is limited.

    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.

    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.

    "|"We designed these sayas pins for use in all our sayas and we're really pleased with them. It was way more difficult than we originally thought but now we have plenty to sell for our customers that lose them and need replacements. The pins are made out of birch wood and they have a rounded head on the top for easy twisting and a tapered post so the pin grabs the hole as you push it further in.

    Chef Knives to go was very prompt. I ended up buying the Tojiro 3 piece set upon Mark’s recommendation. I highly recommend these knives. I have been a German knife fan in the past. The Tojiro set is a remarkable value. Sharp (very). Good balance. Finished well. Thanks for the recommendation.

    I bought this set for one of my cooks,for the price they are incredible,took a great edge,my only complaint is the handle on the gyuto is rather bulky. Great customer service from Mark and ultra fast shipping. Thanks!

    I’m very impressed with the service. I have placed the order on Jun 5,at 2:00am. And the same morning at 10:00 am,my order was already with Fedex poeple. I have received my order today Jun 7. Pretty fast service and delivery. All three knives are SHARPPPPPPPPP! There may be some tiny imperfection here and there on the knife edge,but I can not see them with naked eyes. I had to use 3X magnification glass to see them. I do that whenever I sharpen my knives too. All in all,I’m very please with this set. Will definitely buy another set for my best friend.

    The knives are sharp.

    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.

    I’ve been working in kitchens for several years,this has led to my mild obsession with collecting kitchen knives. In my kit I have Shuns,Globals,Macs,Wusthofs,etc. but for day to day use I use a Tojiro.



    The balance,ease of maintenance,edge holding,and handle comfort of these knives exceeds everything else in my quiver.

    This set is a good bargain on some very sharp knives. I like everything about them except the handles which are quite "blocky." I got out some sandpaper of various grits and reshaped the handles,following the contour of the bolster to make a more radiused handle (I am sure I voided my warranty). The handle material responds well to shaping. I used a wipe-on poly finish to seal the handle and the results look and feel better than the original. I think Tojiro could do themselves a favor if they paid more attention to their work on handles!

    Purchased these after reading any review and trying many knives at local stores. Of all those I tried,these seemed the best at their price point,and a month after receiving them,I have no regrets.



    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.

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.

VG10 steel is easily the most used stainless alloy in the kitchen knife industry and for good reason. VG10 ""super steel"" is composed of carbon, chromium, cobalt, manganese, molybdenum, silicon, and vanadium. All of these relatively small amounts of other metals give the VG10 steel its most important properties, such as its ability to hold an edge coupled with great durability. The VG10 core is clad in 13-chrome softer stainless steel which delivers an effortless sharpening experience and adds structural ductility and support to the blade.

    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.

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.

    For the price you cannot go wrong buying any of the Tojiro DP line of knifes. I started out by buying 2 of the MAC Pro series knifes but decided to try the Tojiro DPs and I now have 5 of them. In my honest opinion they beat the MAC and even the more expensive Shun line of knifes hands down in workmanship looks and sharpness. I kid you not when I tell you that every Tojiro DP knife I have received so far from Chef Knifes To Go have came sharp enough to shave the hair off of my forearm,which is how I test my knifes when I sharpen them at home.

    It’s hard to beat this one for the price and quality.

    These knives are great. I just purchased this knife and also have a tojiro santoku which I use every day. Highly recommended for professional use. Great price. Maintains a beautiful edge. Sharpens easily on a wet stone and if you’re using a steel it comes instantly back to life. Awesome if you work in a kitchen and need knives that can withstand constant use without losing their funtionality. Great knives.

    The Tojiro DP gokujo is very similar to a Western boning or fillet knife and should be a familiar pattern for most cooks.

    I really like this one. The Gokujo is basically a Japanese version of a Western boning knife. The fit & finish is very good and it was exceptionally sharp OOTB- I felt no need to sharpen it before taking it to work. The only minor quibbles I have are that the unsharpened portion near the heel end of the blade is a bit larger than it would need to be,and that the knife was a little larger than I thought it would be.



    All in all this is a superb knife and a screaming bargain at the price.

High-end VG-10 steel is found in the core of this series which has been treated to provide excellent sharpness, edge retention, and ease of maintenance. These qualities make the Tojiro DP line one of the best options for cooks interested in sampling Japanese performance cutlery for the first time. Western handles on the DP series are rendered in black stamina wood and are seamlessly integrated with the tang and bolster. Indeed, the bolster’s curved transition into the blade make this knife equally comfortable in a pinch or racquet grip. One would be hard pressed to find knives that are constructed with the same attention to performance and quality at similar prices.

    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.

  • Blade Length: 180 mm

    Good knife overall. I bought it for a gift,and although it’s too small for me,it came sharp and does the job for the person intended. I was thinking about the Santoku,but I feel this shape is more useful.

    Great little knife. Very sharp edge out of the box,and the handle is much better than I expected after hearing that the handles on the DP line are too boxy. This is a good length if you want a nice agile knife with the shape of a gyuto but the size of a utility knife. I would definitely consider buying another knife from this series in the future.



    Service was excellent as well,and shipping was very fast.

    Great out of the box but needs to be sharpened. It has a weight to it at first which turns into being helpful with the heavier prep which it is sometimes meant for(pumpkin.) Handle is comfortable but not amazing. Its great for working in small spaces.

    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.

    F&F is just ok but it’s also not the most expensive knife. After reading reviews I expected a little more sharpness ootb but after I opened it up there was no problem with getting a nice edge on it. A little lighter than expected but will make for a good little line knife where space is limited.

    I admit to being somewhat skeptical because of the price,as we have some very expensive top of the line knives in our kitchen. This equals the others’ performance,and I mean solidly equals. It sharpens easily,and holds an edge. We have budgeted for replacing about 15 knives next year. We’re going with Tojiro. Sometimes there are real values in this world. Thank you Tojiro. I do feel it’s unfair to call this "entry level" or a "good introduction" because this is the real deal--what I’ve come to expect from the fin Japanese artisans.

In the DP series, Tojiro’s excellent treatment of VG-10 core steel provides for extreme keenness without sacrificing edge integrity or retention. The core steel is laminated with softer stainless steel which enhances the ease at which the knife can be sharpened and provides an element of support and ductility to the harder core. These qualities, in concert with nice convex grinds which aid in food separation and a high level of fit and finish, make the Tojiro DP series regarded as one of the best values available in the knife world today.

    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 fit and finish on this knife is good,and the sharpness is excellent. The knife sharpens fairly easily too!



    Highly highly recommended.

    This is knife is just unbelievable. I have not used many other knives other than Chicago cutlery,which plains sucks imo. All that I can say is that this knife lives up to its reputation,plus there’s a reason that this knife finished second only to the Misono ux 10 - it’s that good. I am planning on purchasing the accompanying pairing knife to go with this,as well a sharping stone and a magnetic block to store it in. Definitely a big bang for the buck here!

    I love this knife. Sharp and quiet in the hand,almost delicate. Lovely to look at,too. Be very careful when you sharpen it. I put scratches on the knife’s side when doing so. I don’t know of a sharpener that absolutely has no way of scratching the sides,though.

    After doing much research,I decided to make this my first Japanese knife purchase. I couldn’t be happier. The blade was sharper out of the box than any of my Wusthof knives have been even after professional sharpening. No fit and finish issues whatsoever,just a well made knife at a FANTASTIC price. I would’ve paid at least 150% of the price for this great knife.

    This is my all purpose knife. I used the full length of the blade,so it isn’t too short for me. There were 2 burrs on the choil(one in front of the bolster,ouch!),but they were removed easily. The downsides are minor,sharpish angles on the handle end,soft(easily scratched) steel cladding,and a big ugly logo on the left side. Everything else leaves little to be desired. Holds a great edge that’s durable,lightweight,well balanced,and stainless throughout. I abuse this thing and it is good to me in return. Fantastic value.

    Just received the Tojiro DP Chefs knife this morning and gave it to my prep cook. Together we went through 50 lb. onions,15 lbs. lemons,5 lbs jalepenos,and still sharp enough to glide through 25 lbs of tomatoes without honing. Great knife so far. Fit and finish are great. Sharp out of the box. Very fast shipping from Chefs knives to-go. We will be buying more.

    Impressively sharp,right out of the box. Still getting used to it. Not as much "rocker" from the tip to the heel,as with my german knife. Sort of a long flat section from the heel to middle of the knife (or it’s just a much more gradual curve),so it’s almost like a nakiri combined with a chef’s knife in some ways. If you tend to point with your index finger on top of the blade,rather then pinch,the square edges on top of the blade are still sharp enough to cause discomfort,but not actually cut you. I have a tendency to hold the knife further down on the handle,so I have to consciously choke up on my grip so I’m putting more downward force with my palm,rather than with my fingers pinching the blade,or else the top of the blade tends to rub my index finger raw. Looking forward to getting more of the Tojiro knives.

    I own a knife sharpening business so I see and handle LOTS of knives. Of course,I USE them as well. The value of the Tojiro DP’s just cannot be beat. These are light,sharp,beautiful knives at a price that makes them affordable for anyone who is serious about cooking. I expect that in years to come,this three-ply design will be a standard in kitchens around the world. The VG-10 steel center ply with a Rockwell hardness of 60 ensures that they will stay very sharp for a long,long time. Although a number of Japanese mfrs produce this style of knives,the Tojiro DP line is the value leader.

    Best starter knife! This knife just makes life easier at work and at home!

    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 sharpen knives a lot and I have an obsession with sharpening which has led to a burning desire to have a good knife. I decided upon the Tojiro DP after discussing the product with Mark. I have never ordered a knife online so I was a bit apprehensive.

    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.

In the DP series, the maker’s handling of the stainless VG-10 core is phenomenal and has extracted the best characteristics of the steel. The knife takes a highly refined, incredibly sharp edge that is exceptionally durable and easy to maintain. The core is clad in softer stainless steel which is easier to sharpen and provides structural integrity to the knife.

    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.

    I have been using a Tojiro DP 240 for a couple of years now. It gets regular use in the kitchen. I love this knife. It’s balanced well for me. The fit and finish was fine. No issues at all. The 240mm length is well suited for the home cook. The metal sharpens easily and holds a razor sharp edge for a long time,depending on how it’s sharpened. The Tojiro DP line is a good entry into Japanese knives. So good in fact that you may not find no need to upgrade.

    This is my first ’official’ Japanese gyuto after coming from Global and Shun knives.



    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.

    I bought this for my friend who was impressed by the cutting demonstration of the 210mm version. I own a 240mm Moritaka Gyuto which is the best Japanese knife I ever owned,but Tojiro DPs perform almost as well. I don’t think the alloy core of the Tojiro DPs get as sharp and durable as the AS core of the Moritakas,but for something that’s almost half the price,the Tojiro DPs deliver the best bang for the buck.



    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.

    Great knife at a great price. VG-10 at 60 HRC has become a golden standard in production knives,just take a look at the Shuns and the new Henckels,and the Tojiro has it at a great price. It has its quirks though,like its boxy handle. For a more in depth review check out http://kazuhiko10.wordpress.com/category/tojiro-vs-shun/

    Excellent knife! It had great weight,perfect profile,sharp OTB,and holds the edge extremely well!



    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!

    The 240 DP was also a "coming of age" knife for me. It was the first "real" J-knife I got after my initial foray into "Shun Land." And the Tojiro has been excellent. Years later many high dollar flavor-of-the-month knives have come and gone but the Tojo has remained a fixture of my kit. The F’n’F is just okay but good for the price. The main attraction is the blade. It takes a good edge and retention is fine. The DP isn’t the thinnest one out there but I have much spendier knives that are thicker.



    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. ;)

    Been using the Tojiro DP 240 for about a year now (in a professional kitchen),and I really have nothing but good things to say about it. Will blast through frozen lobster tails and still be good to chiffonade garnish an hour later. Easy to sharpen,great fit and finish. Big boxy handle good for big hands,and subsequently a bit handle heavy. Great steel for the price,I now own their petty and boning knife.

    Wow. No need to take my Misono to work now. Completely blown away as soon as I opened the box. Razor sharp and fit and finish well above what I expected for a $100 knife. I don’t think you can find a better knife for the price. Definitely going to be adding a few more Tojiros to my kit.

    This was my first "professional" knife purchase and I couldn’t be happier with it. I researched chef knives for a while before deciding on this and while I can’t compare it to more expensive versions,I can’t imagine a much better knife than this,especially at this price.

    Highly recommended!

    Hello all,



    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.

    I bought the 240 immediately after getting the 210 because i liked it so much. The blades are nice and thin,sharpen/hone easily,and stay sharp for a long time even in a professional setting. I use the 240 for my job and the 210 for home use (which i would recommend for others too if you are debating which one to get) because i like the longer blade for intensive prep and there is more clearance for your fingers for repeated cutting/slicing/chopping motions. The price is great. It’s a really good beginner knife for the price/quality and great for learning how to sharpen/use a whetstone so you aren’t concerned with messing up a 200 dollar knife’s edge.

    This is a really fantastic value for the money. The knife is very well made,and is durable and strong. What i like is that instead of being pretty first,like many japanese brands that are marketed in the U.S.,this is useful tool first,without worthless frills. It is very sharp with a beautiful edge,and of course will sing when put a water stone. I like the 240 mm size,it is not to large for home use and is very practical. I use to slice and chop vegetables,filet skirt steaks,cut melon,and everything in between. While it has some flex,it is not whippy,and this gives you confidence when using it. The video of chopping garlic is dead on - this is not a knife that you have to baby or be afraid to use. Finally,the edge is very durable for how fine the angle is. Overall a great product at a great price.

Indeed, many accomplished amateur and professional cooks find these knives to outperform far more expensive alternatives. Tojiro uses soft stainless steel wrapped around a hard core of VG-10. The excellent heat treatment of these knives provides for a blade that is easy to sharpen, has high edge retention capabilities, and can take a wickedly sharp edge.

    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.

    I’ve been using a Chinese Cleaver for almost 3 years as my primary knife. I used it for nearly everything. Recently a friend of mine introduced me to a wider array of Japanese cutlery and let me use a few of his gyutos. So I decided to take a plunge back into a more standard chef knife. He helped me evaluate my chopping/cutting style and this was on the top of his list for me because I am a little hard on my knives. I chop a lot of things at work and did not think my style carried the finesse needed to use a laser thin gyuto (like my buddy prefers). This was the perfect fit for me. It has a thin edge capable of carrying out more delicate tasks ... but with plenty of steel behind the edge to hold up to rigorous line/prep work. The handle is also very substantial and not for small hands like other J Knives I have seen or used. It is on the heavier side when compared to other J knives,but still lighter than Western Knives of the same length. It is a little over 10 inches on the blade alone after all. All in all it is a great fit for me ... balanced,good weight,durable blade/handle,and has a Japanese edge I have come to admire for it’s thinness and durability. You can’t go wrong with this knife in my opinion if you are looking for a Japanese workhorse of a knife that will last for quite some time no matter what you throw at it.

    I actually have tested out Salar’s (above posters knife) and did a little work on it for him. Pointed the tip a bit more and thinned the knife so it wedges less. This is the 3rd Tojiro I got to test. All Chef knives in sizes 210 (8inch),240 (nearly 10inch) and his 270 here (call it 11inches). As they go up in size they get bigger,and not just the blade. This thing is a beast. When I first used it I was not a fan... but after spending some time with it I have come to like it more and more. After thinning it and putting a more aggressive tip on it (it’s kind of rounded OTB) it performs as well as knives twice it’s cost IMO. The handle on the 270 is almost too big for me and very boxy. Aside from that I think it might be the best priced 270 on the market. The VG-10 steel is very tough and if treated right hold up to about anything. For me it was a bit hard to "feel" on the stones trying to sharpen it and set new bevels,but is quite easy to sharpen now I am getting a feel for it. The profile is also quite good for push cutting,slicing and rock chopping as opposed to the Shun classic which is strictly a rock chop knife IMO with the continuous sharp curve from heel to tip. If you are into knives and maintaining them and understand the lingo here ... this is a great solid knife for the money.



    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!

    I’ve owned my Gyutou for about 4.5 years now and I cannot say enough about it,it’s great. As a Chef for 30 years,I’ve had all the Henkels,than Wustof’s made,some Sabatiers; I have 3 Kasumi’s with Damascus steel,which are nice,and my Masahiro carbon is too sick for regular work. But this knife was beautiful from day one. Its size,edge,rocker and balance are all gret,at a price that was the best. My Sous Chef (later on Top Chef!) first brought one in,and I had to get one. But for me,the best point,was the handle. I love the size,heft and feel of it. My Kasumis have round handles and they don not give you the grip. I also have the honesuki,a slick,beauty,but it does not see as much use. My 270 is my number one workhouse,but I would not have it any other way. i just want the Sujihiki/slicer to match!!(as if I NEED another knife!!)

    Tojiro 270mm gyuto… First some figures.



    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 have big hands and have difficulty getting a comfortable pinch grip on smaller knives like my wife’s Global G-2 (8",1.75" depth at the heel). The big,"boxy" Tojiro handle that bothers some others is great for me (the Victorinox/Forschner fibrox handles are more comfortable yet,but frankly do not look nearly as awesome),and the 2" blade depth ensures that my fingertip stays above the edge like it’s supposed to.



    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.

In these knives, VG-10 is expertly treated to bring out the best qualities in the steel. These knives can take and hold an incredibly sharp edge which is very easy to maintain and can stand up to the demands of professional kitchens. The fit and finish are high and the stamina wood handles are very well done and can withstand some serious use.

    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.

    This knife is a champ and a real value to boot. Fit and finish was as good as any Wusthof or Henckles knife I have ever owned which is to say--Excellent!



    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!

    I am amazed by the toughness and durability of this knife. These knives are intended to be used to cut up chicken and I frequently use mine for breaking down whole chickens. I have pounded it though breasts,bones and all,and the blade has never shown the slightest bit of micro chipping. It holds its edge very well and is very easy to sharpen,especially for a stainless. I think this knife represents great value. Also the Honesuki size/shape makes a tough,good all purpose utility knife.

    A small,rigid-bladed knife with a very functional slicing tip this Eastern boning knife is really well put together and fun to use. Sharp,holds an edge well,and that tip will slip into the darndest of places. Note to self: do not use this knife to undo stitching in one’s clothing,tempting though it may be.

    This is one of the most used knives in my kit. A wonderful value and i have yet to find a honesuki that works better. The core steel will take a wonderful edge and does not chip easily. It stays sharp a long time as well. This knife can take a lot of abuse and still keep on going. The fit and finish was good,although the handle is not the most comfortable in the world. But,who cares... i still think this is one of my favorite knives.



    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.

    A great knife for a lot less $$$ than anything else out there. Great for breaking down birds. I’m sure it will kill racks of lamb,as well. I usually go for more rounded handles,but for a boning knife,I think the western style handle is more secure when you are using different types of grips while breaking down messy stuff. Excellent bang for your buck... Oh wait,I said that already. Gotta get a couple more Tojiros. Did I say great bang for your buck?

    Great little knife. F&F was very nice,and the knife has held it’s edge admirably after breaking down a couple chickens. It is very handle heavy but I don’t mind that for the job it’s doing.

    I’m giving this one 5 stars for Quality and Value. You can buy a more perfectly finished knife with fancier steels,wood handle etc,but not at this price. Even a knife snob may want to consider getting one of these to do real boning work. In the event that you chip the blade (though unlikely) you haven’t damaged a hand made heirloom. Here’s a few points to consider:



    • 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)

    I have to pile on another rave review for this knife. While I have considerably more expensive knives I still keep five Tojiro blades in my work case; well,this one is probably the best of them all! Nearly everything about this knife if perfect (when the price is factored in,at least). It’s sturdy and very sharp OOtB. The slight blockiness common to Tojiros is actually an asset with this one.



    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! ;)

    I resisted buying this knife because I questioned its quality given its price. Eventually,I was won over by the cascade of positive reviews. Everything they say is true. This knife is one of the great Japanese knife bargains. It’s only shortcoming,in my opinion,is the too sharply cut edge on the rear of the handle. It’s not comfortable as it comes out of the box,but you can soften it in less than 5 minutes with some fine grit sandpaper (180),followed by some extra fine grit paper (400). Just "lightly" work the edge at a 45 degree angle. Take your time checking the edge as you work. Rub the edge with your finger to polish off the dust and you are good to go. The edge will look like it just came from the factory only better.



    Needless to say,Chef Knives To Go has it all: knives,price,and service.

    Received this knife as an Xmas present. I deboned a turkey for the Xmas brunch and it did very well except for removing some smaller tendons and bones from the drumpstick. I did polish the blade a little bit on a 4K stone afterwards and deboned a chicken. The chicken breast literally jumped off the rib cage. Also,cutting through wings for airline breasts and separating drums/thighs was just easy.



    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.

    I’ve had this knife for almost 10 years. It is such a great value. Stays sharp forever. I mean I never have to sharpen it. I want to sharpen it,but when I check the edge,it just doesn’t need it. You could add a couple hundred bucks to the price and it would still be a good deal. I do an insane amount of volume catering and this thing is the textbook definiton of a work horse. BUY IT !

    very sharp out of the box and nice thick blade too.



    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.

    Awesome piece of hardware. I swear it just melts into my hand. Great box edge,and fit and finish is perfectly smooth. Tore through three birds already and the edge could use just a bit of help on the stones. The finish scratches easy,even a soft dish towel dulled the surface with micro scratches. I don’t care one bit. The way this knife feels and handles is.....Flawless.

They then transition into a gentle curve to the reverse tanto style tip. The blade length of this specimen is 208mm at the edge which is perfectly matched to the 45mm height.

    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.

The quality of the core VG-10 steel, stainless clad construction, blade geometry, versatility of edge profile, and high level of fit and finish are unmatched at the price points offered. Convexing on the blades is done very well, the tapered spine on most knives in the DP series heightens balance and dexterity, and the flush handle surfaces make these knives incredibly comfortable to use for long periods of time. It is no wonder that these knives are favorites among value-conscious professional and home cooks in both Japanese and Western kitchens.

    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.

Plus,it came fantastically sharp OOTB. It’s the first knife I’ve bought in ages that I didn’t need to sharpen before taking it to work.

    Always wanted a nakiri and when I saw the price I ordered it. Also as a way to "push" myself into push-cut instead of rock-chop. Way sharp OOTB,haven’t felt the need to put it to a even a hone yet (2 weeks). Handle is good European style,great bolster and balance with pinch hold,with or without index finger on spine. Fit and finish of blade,bolster and handle excellent. Good as 2x 3x the price. Over-ripe tomato slices you can read a paper through. So nice I ordered a Tojiro guyto and petty - both excellent fit and finish - and just as sharp OOTB. We’ll see how long the edges lasts. I’m curious how the VG10 will sharpen on my (heresy) oilstones.

    Recieved the knife. Thank you CKTG for quick service. I was looking for a quality,inexpensive Nakiri and was excited by the reviews. This knife fell a bit short for me. IMO it needs sharpening out of the box. The tang is slightly longer than the handle and the edges are relatively sharp. This is not an issue when using the knife but speaks to fit and finish. The spine is relatively sharp as well and the edges will have to be "broken" hete as I use a pinch grip. Weight and balance on the knife are very good. Very nice knife after sharpening and taking off the sharp edges but this should have been done by the manufacturer.

    You get what you pay for with this knife. It’s wonderfully sharp and technically good,though not a lot of attention was paid to details. The handle was not finished symmetrically,the blade is not perfectly aligned with the handle,some grinding marks are visible on various parts of the knife,the sharpening of the blade could have been better too. The handle material also smells a bit funny,and comes with a manufacturer’s notice that it is normal for "white powder" to come out of the handle material. The instruction manual’s English is also horribly broken. That being said,none of the above minor issues are noticeable when actually using the knife,which is what really matters. Overall,as long as you are not looking for a perfect finish,this a great knife for the price.

Tojiro DP knives sport a hard VG-10 stainless core which is expertly treated to achieve a wonderful balance of extreme sharpness potential, ease of maintenance, and edge retention. The VG-10 is laminated with softer stainless steel, which improves the sharpening experience and adds integrity to the knives’ construction. This knife features a nicely tapered spine and great convex grind, which heighten the blade's dexterity and improves food release respectively. Fit and finish is very high with a nicely transitioned bolster, flush surfaces and a bulletproof stamina wood handle. Overall, these knives are arguably some of the best values available.

    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.

    Takes a wicked edge and cuts great. No rust issues at all and it will be used for cutting veggies and left wet.

    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.

    This is my second Tojiro dp knife. The fit and finish is flawless on the knife I recieved. The handles are pretty square on my Tojiro’s so a little work with some sandpaper can shape them to your liking if it bothers you. I haven’t touched mine. The knife was fairly sharp however I did a little thinning and polished up the edge and this really is now my new favorite knife. It definately will support and hold a keen edge. 5 stars for a great knife at a awesome price.

    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 quality of build and high level of performance exhibited throughout the lineup is usually reserved for much pricier blades.

    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.

    I have been in love with Tojiro knives for over 5 years,when you could only find them direct from Japan (though they were about 40% cheaper then!). This santoku is perhaps the best bang-for-buck knife out there,and I’d recommend it to just about anyone. Chefknivestogo delivered it quickly and in perfect shape,and I’ve been impressed with their customer service and love the video reviews!

    Bought this as a gift for my son’s mother-in-law (Marija),who admired her daughter’s Masamoto santoku,gifted by me a few years ago. The Tojiro was decent sharp out of the box,but I tuned it up to 8K with Shapton stone on Edge Pro,plus leather strop. Will report back when my good friend and great cook Marija tells me how the Tojiro performs.

    I would like to rate this somewhere between 3.5 and 4 stars actually. The knife is well constructed,but not so pretty. I still think it is a high value knife. The factory edge is not suitable for use IMO on this example. It is quite "heavy" behind the edge. So,after a bit of thinning and sharpening,a little handle contouring,it is a very serviceable knife. The value is in the blade,steel,and hardening. Just needs some tweaking. I recommend this knife for the cook that works the line and wants to go to the next level,or the knife person who is looking for the basis for a nice suji and doesn’t mind,or enjoys tinkering. It gets,and stays,very sharp.

    Awesome knife. I have had it for over a year and only recently have I fallen in love with this knife. I think heavy use and repeated sharpening has actually thinned it a tad bit and its just a pleasure to use. I can sharpen it up and use it for a few days heavy on the line,and I can still cut tomatoes with the tip because its just so darn thin. I can pull cut cold cooked chicken breast easier than I could before I beat the hell out of this thing. It’s awesome.

    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.

    Like all tojiro DPs I think this is a great knife for the price.



    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.

    Thick handle. bulky and takes a little getting used to. Edge needs serious thinning for it to come to life. Holds an edge with the very best. Stiff,great big knife. Fit and finish leaves some to be desired. All taken care of with a few hours with the dremel tool.

The DP VG10 2 Rivet series has come to us especially designed for home cooks who are making their first foray into this somewhat complex and confusing knife universe.

    Like the regular DP, the DP VG10 2 Rivet line of knives is made with VG10 stainless steel as the core. They use a 13-chrome stainless steel as the cladding to protect the core while reducing weight and increasing shock resistance.

    Tojiro has expertly treated this steel to provide a cutting edge that can achieve extreme levels of sharpness, while exhibiting great retention properties. It is also very easy to maintain and sharpen.

    The main difference between the DP and the DP VG10 2 Rivet range of knives is in the handle. While the DP uses an integral bolster and stamina wood for the scales, the DP VG10 2 Rivet line eschews the bolster in favor of a hidden tang design with a more squared handle made from a reinforced black wood. The shape is almost a hybrid of wa and yo handle shapes.

    The thinner grinds and lighter handle result in a very easy-to-use knife that is perfect for young cooks and those preferring a featherweight cutter in hand. They are made with the customary attention to detail that Tojiro is known for and as such are simply an amazing bargain.

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.

    This is a great bread knife. The handle has a slight upward cant from the blade that gives your knuckles plenty of clearance. The fit and finish of the handle is perfect.



    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.

    WOW!



    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.

    Fantastic knife,

    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.

    Best bread knife I have ever used hands down. The only thing I can say about owning this knife,is it took me so long to own it. Been using in a pro kitchen,first bread knife to stay in my bag. It doesn’t make the guy who went one on one with Iron Chef Michael Simon look so crazy for doing everything with a bread knife,hell now I think I may join him. I’m glad makers are finally starting to figure things out. Keep it up. I’m waiting for a day when it takes longer than 1.5 days to get something from Mark. He makes it hard on us knife guys.

    Tojiro has officially put its brand on the world map of knives with the ITK Bread Knife.



    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.

    I got this in and finally got a chance to use it on a Pineapple and watermelon. What a difference compared to using my large Gyuto’s! Great for taking the skin/ring off of the food and then slicing down. No wedging and nice clean cuts. Also cuts bread very cleanly,too. Great knife,but a lot more versatile than I thought it would be!

    A classic,clean-looking bread knife with a superb fit and finish. The blade is long and thin. I wasn’t particularly excited about this knife until I went back to my previous bread knife (a Pure Komachi,which is not a bad knife at all for $10). The Tojiro is a WAY better knife than the inexpensive Komachi - the scalloped edge sails through crusty bread,and the slight curve of the blade helps make sure that you cut cleanly all the way through. A real workhorse,and a good value.

    I’ve purchased three of these knives so far. Two were gifts for my sister and a friend. None of us can imagine using any run of the mill bread knife after using the Tojiro ITK. I’ve created another knife geek in my friend who is now slicing bread so thin he’s holding it up to see light through it! lol

    Best bread knife I’ve ever owned. Perfect length,great blade (incredibly sharp!),and really well-made overall. 4 stars instead of 5,only because the handle felt a little awkward for me at first. I can’t quite put my finger on why. Maybe it’s because I’ve gotten used to wa-style handles lately. In any case,after using it for a little while,any awkwardness disappeared as I quickly grew to love the performance of the blade. Although it might look out-of-place to most people,personally I’d love a wa- handle put on this knife!

    Wow! That’s all I can say. I’ve never had a bread knife that can cut through the softest bread without even crushing it a little. Amazing.

    i have used this knife to cut exclusively sourdough breads with thick crusts. after about 1 month,the blade of this knife was completely dulled and burred. not only that,but the stiffness of the steel barely holds up when slicing larger breads. i can see how this knife would be fine for softer,yeasted breads,but for artisan hearth loaves this knife does not perform.

    Fantastic bread knife. It cuts excellently,and though I haven’t tested it on a hard,crusty bread yet it flies through light breads leaving nary a crumb. I have docked 1 star simple for F&F; I would give it 4.5 if I could,but just be aware that the tang on mine was slightly rough and larger than the scales,and the scale fit was fairly tight but not perfect,with some slight gaps.

    The knife is a beautiful,well crafted tool. The blade is quite thin,and very sharp allowing for thin slicing of bread. It cuts through crusty breads with two strokes of the blade and is proving to hold up to the test of a line work knife. The blade is a little more flexible that I would have cared for but it is also how it is able to be so thing. Overall I give the knife a 4.5/5

    I agree with some other reviews saying the knife is to flexiable when cutting through harder bread but still it is amazingly sharp and I don’t regret buying it.

They tackle a huge number of tasks and the Tojiro kitchen shears (FK-843) are one of our favorites.

    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.

    Very high quality and sharp. Can tell they will last and be easy to sharpen when necessary. All metal,no plastic weak points to break. Extremely easy to take apart and clean- just open all the way and remove each half. Dry immediately after washing to avoid rust.

R-2, aka SG-2, is a very 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 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.

    You get what you pay for. The blade isn’t ground with high level of craftsmanship,The handle wood is little bit rough looking and cannot be compared with handles coming from higher end manufacturers. there is a big hole where the blade meet the handle that I need to fill with epoxy for hygiene concerns,Now,all this in mind i would buy this item again should my purpose is to heavily use a deba made with shirogami,if I am buying a deba to have it displayed and work with it occasionally,then I would buy a more expensive Deba

They are used primarily to cut fish, though they are also used to cut other meats on occasion. This 180mm Deba is made from a high carbon, reactive Shirogami steel (also known as White #2). A carbon steel like this needs regular maintenance and oiling to prevent rust, however they also also take a sharper edge which will last longer than stainless steels.

    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.

    I was looking for a budget deba and got much more than that. it came out of the box with great F&F. It was extremely sharp and ready to use although it did spend some time on the stones before it got use. I use it to fabricate many different size whole fish and really enjoy the feeling the knife gives. It is a great buy for someone wanting a great value.



    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.

    Just received the knife a couple of weeks ago,my first Deba,and I love it! I’m new to japanese style knifes but have been reading up on them for about a year and as a fisherman I was fascinated by this knife due to how incredibly different it was from western style filet knives.



    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!

    A terrific budget deba. This is a steal for the quality of this blade. A complaint is that my bolster will slide up and down periodically,but that’s nothing a soak in water (or some wood glue) can’t fix.



    OUTSTANDING deba for the price. So far it’s been a dream fabbing striped bass,bream and salmon with this knife.

The knife is also increasingly popular with western cooks for a multitude of tasks including roast carving. Its name, ""yanagi"", means ""willow blade"" as this knife has long and pliant characteristics of a willow branch, and the most important principle in using a yanagi to prepare sashimi is not cutting down but pulling with its long blade in a single motion. Sashimi and sushi are ideally prepared so that sliced cross-sections of fish are as smooth as glass, shiny, and sharp. The Tojiro Yanagi is designed specifically for this purpose.

    Important design points for it are as follows:

  • Length: the Tojiro Yanagi has a long blade to cut a fish block only in one direction, using a pull-cut motion. (Zigzag cutting creates a poor quality cross-sections).
  • Thickness: this yanagi has a very thin blade, requiring very little force, reducing tearing and smashing of delicate proteins.
  • Hardness and Durability: this blade is made from Shirogami (White #2) steel which is durable and takes a very sharp edge. The Shirogami core (visible at the polished edge) is wrapped by a second layer of Shirogami cladding (the smooth satin finish closer to the spine of the blade).
  • Finish: The Shirogami cladding has a smooth satin finish on this blade, which glides through protein. The steel is also reactive, so extra care is needed to keep the blade dry lest rust set in. Being a reactive blade, the Tojiro Yanagi will develop a beautiful patina over time.
  • Single Ground: The Tojiro Yanagi is blade is angled on one side only. This allows control in the blade angle for delicate cutting and allows for ease of sharpening. This yanagi is a right-handed version in which the blade is ground only on the right side (front face).
  • Cutting Direction: While almost all western knives are used to push and cut, this traditional Japanese knife is used to pull and cut instead.

    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.

    Ootb was a bit of a mess,warped left side with an odd bevel for some reason. Handle was nicer then most tojiro itks. After a good bit of work getting the geometry right this really does cut fish very well. So to sum it up,for the price can you really beat it. Put in a days work and you have wonderful piece of white steel ready to go.

The 300mm yanagi is one of the most popular sizes for this style of knives. The blade is constructed with a core of White #2 steel (also called Shirogami and White Paper 2 steel) sandwiched between a softer iron outer layer. White #2 steel will take a screaming sharp edge and well. These knives are traditionally single bevel and used primarily to slice raw fish, but many use these as standard slicing knives. The blade is attached to a ho wood handle and water resistant resin ferrule. 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.

At this length they are a great choice for chefs who prefer compact knives or who work with restricted board space. This petite cutter is also a great choice for prepping garnishes and other smaller items.

    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.

The new Hammered VG10 series of knives is another example of their ability to combine great materials and high levels of construction and design, all at an affordable price.

    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.

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.

    VG10 is the most favored of all stainless steels in Japanese knife manufacturing and is employed by most makers, from the big guns to the smallest one-man shops. The steel was developed by the Takefu Specialty Steels Company, so it makes sense that most of the local smiths employ it.

    The knife has really well executed grinds that will surprise many, especially given the keen price point. A simple ho wood handle with a D-shaped profile completes this well made and easy to maintain knife.

Tojiro is one of the giants of the Japanese knife world, loved by home and professional chefs for their high quality and very reasonable prices.

    VG10 is, hands down, the most favored of all stainless steel in Japanese knife making, from the big boys to the smallest one-man shops. It was developed by the Takefu Specialty Steels Company so it only makes sense that most of the local smiths employ it.

    We really like the combination of a VG10 core with the rustic look of the hammered kurouchi finish, all wrapped in a package that is easy to maintain and good to look at. 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 knife is basic in terms of fine detail but it makes up for this in its abilities on the board. This knife performs, and does so with style and ease. Add in the very keen pricing and you have an affordable blade that can be a gateway knife or a do-it-all knife, or anything in between.

    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. Often it will come with a rustic kurouchi finish which is the dark, rough finish.

Their very unique shape gives them an air of mystery and tradition. This blade shape takes on all kinds of ingredients and tasks with consummate ease. While looking like a traditional bunka, the Tsubaki Blue #2 bunka is more accurately called a Hakata bocho. The main difference between the two is in the length of the pointed nose and the curved spine. These unique knives originated on the island of Kyushu in southern Japan.

    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.

Right across the street from his workshop is this beautiful marsh where his father grows these long reeds that he harvests and uses for making traditional thatched roofs on buildings.

    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.

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.

    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.

Right across the street from his workshop is a beautiful marsh where his father grows long reeds that he harvests and uses for making traditional thatched roofs on buildings.

    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 produce this knife. I manually insert Hitachi Aogami #2 steel into quality mild soft suminagashi cladding. I carefully made it annealed into the ash of rice straw, which adds carbon powder.

    After forging (the steels together), considering the hakata's 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.

AS is one of our favorite steels 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 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.

    The sakura style handle is made from cherry wood and it complements the blade both in looks and balance.

    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 lightweight.

    The fine blade is matched to a really well-made handle constructed from solid oak. The overall fit and finish are of a high standard. Highly recommended.

It is made in Japan by the Aichi Steel Company. You will occasionally see two AUS-8 steels being used by knife makers: plain AUS-8 and AUS-8A.

The result is a very high level of corrosion resistance coupled with great hardness, toughness, and harden-ability, high levels of wear and abrasion resistance.

It is a very good steel for making kitchen knives given its high level of corrosion resistance coupled to an ability to sharpen easily to a razor-sharp edge. This is very resilient steel so it makes for an easy to care for edge and knife overall.

    The blade is quite thin—certainly not a laser, but it does have a nice distal taper towards the tip. Very well done for a knife at this price point. The full tang is also stainless and the bolster is integrated into the blade. A good-looking brown oak handle is attached to the tang with three stainless pins. A nice engraved set of kanji characters is a surprise addition to this well-priced knife.

    Ginsan Stainless Steel was created by Hitachi Metals and it is primarily used to make knives that function in ways that are similar to high-carbon steel. But the big plus is the lack of maintenance required over its carbon siblings. The steel composition is very pure compared to most alloys, as it is comprised of just iron, carbon, and chromium. The pure nature of the steel gives it a great ability to take a fine edge and sharpen with ease.

    The overall fit and finish of these knives belies the price point. We really appreciate the added hand-chiseled kanji characters along with the good-looking and feeling oval handle. The total package is classic and classy, and we think you will enjoy this versatile cutter in your kitchen.

They are all-around workhorses capable of processing almost any ingredients. The Tsunehisa G3 Migaki Gyuto is a fairly light blade, but not a laser, with a medium height and thickness. It has a sharp and precise feel to it. The profile is quite flat with a small amount of belly for those rocking cuts. Fit and finish are very good indeed, with a nicely finished choil and spine. The rosewood and maple handle is oval-shaped and very comfortable in hand.

    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.

We have included several different steel types in this lineup of mid-priced kitchen knives.

    This fine gyuto is made with G3 stainless steel as its core. Manufactured by Hitachi Metals, Ltd., G3 contains 1.05% carbon, 13% chromium, and 0.8% manganese. It is usually hardened to between 59-62 HRC. One main benefit of this particular steel is its similarity to carbon alloys. Being made with very pure, fine particle components elevates the steel to the top performance rung among other stainless steels. Ginsan-ko contains high carbon but is rust and stain resistant. Being clad with a softer stainless steel makes it easy to maintain while the core of G3 guarantees great cutting performance.

    This is a nicely proportioned knife with a reasonable height and well-conceived profile. The walnut oval handle with maple ferrule is finished to a high standard and complement the beautiful hand-chiseled kanji characters on the blade face. This is a wonderful gyuto for pro or home chefs who are seeking a great all-around cutter with easy to maintain attributes and top shelf performance.

We have included several different steel types in this lineup of mid-priced kitchen knives.

    This fine gyuto is made with G3 stainless steel as its core. Manufactured by Hitachi Metals, Ltd., G3 contains 1.05% carbon, 13% chromium, and 0.8% manganese. It is usually hardened to between 59-62 HRC. One main benefit of this particular steel is its similarity to carbon alloys. Being made with very pure, fine particle components elevates the steel to the top performance rung among other stainless steels. Ginsan-ko contains high carbon but is rust and stain-resistant. Being clad with softer stainless steel makes it easy to maintain while the core of G3 guarantees great cutting performance.

    This is a nicely proportioned knife with a reasonable height and well-conceived profile. The walnut oval handle with maple ferrule is finished to a high standard and complements the beautiful hand-chiseled kanji characters on the blade face. This is a wonderful kiritsuke for the pro or home chefs who are seeking a great all-around cutter with easy-to-maintain attributes and top-shelf performance.

The blade is fashioned from G3 stainless steel. G3 is also known as Ginsan, Ginsanko or Silver 3 and is one of our favorite stainless alloys. It has a very fine grain to it and many people see it as a stainless version of the best carbon steels. The blade is constructed with a softer stainless cladding to make it lighter and more resilient to shocks. This makes for a very easy-to-maintain tool.

    At 135mm, the Tsunehisa G3 Migaki Petty falls into the medium length range of these style of knives. It is a very versatile cutting tool, whether on a board or in hand. The knife also has the ability to tackle garnishes and artistic style cutting tasks with ease. This is a stout and rigid knife that flies though herbs and other small items. The blade is fairly stiff and has a nice profile that allows for a bit of rock chopping.

    The knife comes with a really nice oval shape handle made from rosewood and maple. It is perfect for both left- and right-handed users. The handle is as well finished as the blade itself. All around this is a great petty at a very attractive price.

Santoku knives are prized for their handy, user-friendly size and gyuto/chef knife-like versatility. 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.

    Ginsan Stainless Steel was created by Hitachi Metals and it is primarily used to make knives that function in ways that are similar to high-carbon steel. But the big plus is the lack of maintenance required over its carbon siblings. The steel composition is very pure compared to most alloys, as it is comprised of just iron, carbon, and chromium. The pure nature of the steel gives it a great ability to take a fine edge and sharpen with ease.

    The overall fit and finish of these knives belies the price point. We really appreciate the added hand-chiseled kanji characters along with the good looking and feeling oval handle. The total package is classic and classy, and we think you will enjoy this versatile cutter in your kitchen.

It is a great all-around knife fulfilling the primary cutting roles in many kitchens. The knife excells in push cutting, rocking, slicing and chopping. We swear you won't miss the tip!

    SRS13 steel is an excellent alloy developed by Nachi-Fujikoshi Metals in Japan. It is a PM alloy that can take a really sharp edge. It can also be sharpened with relative ease. The inner core is further strengthened and protected by a fully stainless outer cladding. The blade face is adorned with some fine kanji characters engraved on the blade.

    The Tsunehisa SRS13 Nakiri is fairly average in terms of size and proportions. It measures 163mm at the edge and the blade height of 52mm allows for ample board-to-hand clearance. This nakiri is a really great all-around kitchen knife. It has a deft feel and compact dimensions which endow the knife with a great deal of versatility in its cutting capabilities.

    VG10 is quality stainless steel that offers a nice cutting edge, good edge retention in full stainless steel. It sharpens easily and is just an excellent all-around steel for kitchen knives.

    240mm gyutos are the most popular size for our knife enthusiast customers that want a knife that can do daily work. They're long enough for slicing tasks and tall enough with belly for both rocking a push cutting. This knife has a fairly good flat spot from the heel transitioning into a subtle belly and a finely crafted tip. It is perfect for all styles of cutting.

    Holds the stones well and gives good traction on the counter top. Only complaint is to make sure it is completely dry before storing. The treading on mine started to rust after the first use. After noticing this,I take extra care in cleaning it.

    Very serviceable,though the adjustment nuts never spin smoothly on the threaded rod. No complaints once I get a stone into it. It’s wide enough for synthetics and most naturals I can afford.



    Though a little more expensive,I much prefer the Suehiro single-rod ones over these for ease of adjustment and stability,especially for wide stones like the Meara.

    This is a very sturdy stone holder. My king stones and norton stones fit easily into the holder. After I use the holder I just make sure to dry it thoroughly so the steel rods don’t rust.

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!

    The West Japan Tools Carbon Steel Skillet is a very lovely variety based on a classic French skillet. What makes it unusual is the fact that it is made in a press but is then machined on the inner sides to reduce weight while retaining a heavy bottom. The handle is a work of sculptural art, as is the whole design.

    These are true artisan quality items made in very limited number by a leading Japanese blacksmith. We have never seen anything quite like them or remotely as beautiful. A true collector’s heirloom item.

It renowned for the beautiful Shinto shrine located at its base. When we conceived the brand, we assigned several leading blacksmiths from the region the task of making a range of knives using a variety of steels that each smith likes to work with.

    This blade is made with VG-10 stainless steel, which is a highly regarded stainless alloy used by many top knife manufacturers. This steel provides good corrosion and wear resistance while retaining the ability to produce a very sharp edge. The VG-10 core is clad with stainless damascus for great looks and excellent performance. The Yahiko gyuto is a perfect choice for first-time Japanese knife buyers who are intimidated by the maintenance regime required by high carbon steel blades. The edge of these knives is a symmetrical 50/50, so this gyuto works equally well for a right- or left-handed user. The knife is finished with a nice wenge octagonal handle with a black fuffalo horn ferrule.

    The fit and finish of the blade and handle are of a high standard, equally matched by the excellent performance the knife is capable of. This is a knife that represents a high point in the price performance curve and one we highly recommend.

They can, of course, be used in other circumstances based upon your needs and likes. These are stout and stiff blades that have a really nice geometry and feature a well-made distal taper from the heel to the fine tip. While honesuki knives are very robust knives, note that they are intended to cut through the joints of a bird, not cleave through the bone.

    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.

Yamashin knives are very simple blades and due to this simplicity are available at a really keen price. This knife is made from Blue #2 high carbon steel with a soft iron cladding. The cladding retains the blacksmith’s carbon scale, which is known as a kurouchi finish. This adds a level of protection to the reactive blade but does not negate the need for careful cleaning and drying after use.

    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.

    I ordered this knife as an inexpensive (relatively) foray into the world of white steel. I am very impressed. The blade has a great grind and I was able to put a very sharp edge with minimal work on 1k and 4k stones. OOTB edge was not stellar,but the beauty of white steel is that a dull edge is an easy problem to fix! Very pleased with the look of the kurouchi and the performance of the blade.

    OOTB it is not killer sharp. But when you sharpen it,it can take a wicked edge. It is a 5 star knife for the price you pay. Also I must say,great customer service. Special thanks to Mark. I will buy from you again.

    Nice light knife in great steal but rather rough grind and thick behind the edge. That being said thin this bad boy out and fix the geometry a bit and you have a great work horse. Busted down a case of roasters with no problem with no chipping. If you want a great piece of steel you can make fit your needs for the price it’s tough to beat. I sanded the ho and tunged the heck out of it and I must say I love this knife. Took a lot of work but I think it’s worth it.

    This is a great knife for every-day use. The blade is wide and sturdy; the knife well-balanced in the hand. The blade takes an easy edge and holds it well. After some use,the kurochi takes on a lovely patina. This is a reasonably-priced knife to use and enjoy daily.

The owner, Yasunori-san, does everything himself, from forging to heat treating, grinding and edging. This man is no one-trick pony!

    So far, we have mainly featured knives made from Blue #2 and VG10, so this AUS-10 Petty is a new departure for him, and for us.

    AUS-10 is a high carbon alloy with a content of 1.05%, similar to G3. To overcome the fragile nature of a high carbon content, nickel, manganese, and silicon are added to improve the ductility and elasticity of the material. The upside is a steel that is easy to sharpen when correctly heat treated. Other elements in this steel include vanadium, chromium, and molybdenum, which give the steel its elevated resistance to corrosion. It is part of a family of AUS steels that include AUS-4, -6, and -8. Each are high in chromium with reduced carbon content as the number decreases.

    This petty features a kiritsuke tip which is most unusual in this style of knife. The inclusion of this tip results in a knife with a longer blade length compared to the spine and a tip that is even more delicate than normally found on a petty. Precision-cutting of specialized garnishes is something this knife is made for, along with the usual jobs at which a petty excels.

    These are really sweet knives in both looks and performance, all at a bargain price!

    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.

They are a small shop producing a limited range of kitchen knives at very reasonable prices. Owner Yasunori-san undertakes the entire production himself, from forging to heat treating, grinding and edging.

    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.

Yasunori-san undertakes the entire production himself, from forging to heat treating, grinding, and edging. This singular purpose and endeavor imbibes the knife with a very cohesive character. One man. One vision.

    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.

    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.

It is a great choice for people who prefer shorter blades or users with very restricted board space. It is also a good tool for prepping garnishes and other smaller items. This knife will appeal to rock and push cutters alike. Its 50/50 grind will also be useful to both left- and right-handed users. It has a fairly thin spine that tapers very nicely towards the tip and it also possesses a fairly thin grind behind the edge.

    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.

One such smith is Yasunori-san, who undertakes the entire production himself, from forging to heat treating, grinding, and edging. This is a very unusual situation, especially in Japan where so many smiths are responsible for just one or two aspects of knife production. The forger rarely sharpens while the sharpener rarely polishes.

    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 upper blade road is treated to a hammer finish which accentuates the pattering and aids with food release.

    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.

He is particularly well known for his blue steel knives, his heat treatment, and his forging skills. His use of pine charcoal when quenching knives allows for a more gentle and slow heat treatment. He also works at a more leisurely pace with regard to daily output.

    Our first batch of knives are kurouchi versions which are made from Blue #1 steel and have a soft iron jigane featuring a very smooth finish. The dark upper blade contrasts perfectly with the sand-blasted lower face along the shinogi. This is highlighted by a more intricate cladding line between the hagane and jigane compared to other makers, with more core steel exposed.

    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!

He is universally lauded for his heat treatment and his forging skills. One aspect of his knives that is loved by all is a very unique clad-line between the hagane and jigane compared to other makers. He also usually has more core steel exposed than you would normally see on other blades.

    The versions we are stocking are made from Blue #1 steel that have a soft iron jigane featuring a very nice kurouchi finish. The dark upper blade contrasts perfectly with the sand-blasted lower face along the shinogi. Some lovely kanji elements add to the refined look of the knife. That look is further enhanced by adding a very well-finished octagonal handle made from rosewood and colored pakka wood.

    Like all Sakai knives, it also runs a bit shorter than advertised. Check our specifications below for actual measurements.

    The result is a blade that is easy to use and to sharpen. It holds a sharp edge and is very durable. The edge steel is then covered in a multi-layer Damascus cladding made from soft stainless steel. These are really easy knives to maintain.

    The stunning blade is matched to a nice oak wood handle in an octagonal shape.

    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.

Along with his experienced crew he is coming out with several new lines with a focus on quality stainless steels and nice damascus finishes. This Bunka is a perfect example. With this new line of VG-10 blades he has managed to these build these principles into his most affordable line of kitchen knives.

    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 bunka is a good choice for lovers of shorter blades or those with very restricted board space. It is also a great choice for prepping garnishes and other smaller items. This knife will appeal to rock and push cutters alike. Its 50/50 grind will also 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.

    Its great aesthetics and functionality are further enhanced by a well-balanced Western style rosewood color handle. This a very well made knife at a great price.

VG-10 steel is a designation used for a particular type of stainless steel. VG-10 steel is a Japanese made alloy that has found particular favor in the cutlery industry.

    Kato-san has crafted these knives to have both wonderful cutting characteristics as well as stunning looks. That he has managed to do so at such an affordable price is quite amazing.

    The 120mm petty is a great all-around kitchen knife for smaller products and smaller tasks like garnish preparation. It has a very slim blade that is ground in a symmetrical manner. Overall balance is really good which is important with a blade of this type. VG-10 holds a good edge and is characteristically quite easy maintain and care for.

    This petty comes with a really lovely western-style handle in a rosewood color. The fit and finish of the knife are as good as its looks.

VG-10 is one of the most popular stainless steels in the world for the manufacturing of kitchen knives, and for good reason. It has very good edge retention and is very wear and corrosion resistant.

    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.

He always considers balance when hammering the steel, keeping in mind where a knife needs to be thin and where it needs to be strong.

    His dedication to his art can be seen in these fine VG-10 knives which look far more refined than their price would suggest. Starting with a core (jigane) of VG-10 stainless steel he then applies outer layers (hagane) 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 etched to further enhance the damascus pattern.

    The santoku featured here is a wonderful all-around slicer and dicer. 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.

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.

The overall look of the knives in this new range is also quite splendid.

    Kato-san makes these blades from very special steel called SG2. SG2 is a modern, high-tech stainless steel made with a powdered metallurgical process that is often found in surgical instruments, metal cutting tools, and, of course, kitchen knives. It has very high edge retention while being fairly wear-resistant and easy to sharpen. The core alloy is clad with softer stainless steel to protect the inner core from shock and add strength to the blade. 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.

They do most of their own cladding work by inserting the hard steel into soft iron, an operation that is currently mostly done by specialty steel mills in other parts of Japan. These traditional methods are becoming more scarce in knife making and it is why we were originally attracted to them.

    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.

They feature an Aogami Super steel central core (or “hagane”).

    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.

They like to work with Aogami Super steel, which 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 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.

Fast, rhythmic, and full chopping strokes right down to the board are possible thanks to its lightweight and wide blade design. The nakiri-bocho is a must-have in any kitchen. Several centuries of experience and know-how have gone into perfecting this knife’s design. The thinness of the blade is the key to quick and easy chopping. Although many Japanese knives are single-edged, nakiri knives are usually double-edged, which makes it easier to cut straight slices.

    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.

It is currently run by five brothers who are the latest generation to have kept it in continual operation since the time when Abraham Lincoln was president! They do most of their own cladding work by inserting the hard core steel into soft iron, an operation that is currently mostly done by specialty steel mills in other parts of Japan. It is this adherence to the old techniques that originally attracted us to this maker.

    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 blade is made from the popular steel called Aogami Super (AS). This carbon rich alloy is then clad with a softer iron using the traditional san-mai construction. This 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.

    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 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.

It is made from the same iron stock as all Hitachi carbon steels, both white and blue. Blue steels have a high carbon content (1.1% - 1.5%), .5% chromium for carbide formation, and added tungsten for increased edge life. Most people feel Blue Super has the longest edge life, while Blue #1 has the best edge formation and Blue #2 the best toughness. Blue steels do not sharpen as easily as whites but they cut better as they lose sharpness. Blue #2 is less likely to chip as compared to the other Blue steels.

    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.

This little guy can do so many things that it really is a jack of many trades.

    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 were drawn to theses makers because of their use of the old techniques like Tamahagane and hand forged awase (cladding), much of which is now performed by the big steel mills before sending the clad steel to their customers.

    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.

As one of their main distributors outside Japan, we asked if they could make some affordable, introductory knives for our customers looking to enter the world of Japanese kitchen knives. The Fugen brand is the result of these efforts.

    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.

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.

These knives are designed and made for home and professional chefs who, while on a budget, have a need for a good level of performance and durability.

    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 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.

While they are placed at the lower end of the cost scale, they perform admirably and will make a great introduction to the world of Japanese kitchen knives. The shaping on these knives is nicely executed and the performance belies the aggressive price. The out of the box edge is about average, but a quick trip to your favorite stones will result in a screaming sharp edge. We can sharpen the blade (extra charge) before shipping for those wanting a head start in the kitchen.

    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.

This process is the most traditional way of steel making using a Tatara and smelting from sand iron collected from a river. As one of their main distributors, we asked if they could make some affordable, introductory knives for our customers looking to enter the world of Japanese kitchen knives. The Fugen brand is the result of these efforts.

    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.

    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 company, now under his father's management, specializes in tools made primarily from Aogami #2 steel.

    Kousuke, branching into kitchen cutlery, marks a new chapter for the family business, showcasing his growing expertise in blade-making. His debut creations have greatly impressed us, and we anticipate a fruitful long-term collaboration with this gifted artisan.

    These knives offer exceptional value, combining excellent craftsmanship, meticulous grinds, and a versatile design suitable for both professional chefs and home cooks. Each knife features a urushi-finished handle in a distinctive octagonal shape, enhancing both its aesthetic appeal and functionality.

His son took over management of the business and continues making these specialized cutting tools using mainly Aogami #2 steel.

    Now, grandson Kousuke has begun making kitchen cutlery to expand the family business and add to his blade making skills. We are very impressed with these first efforts and have high hopes of a long relationship with this talented young man.

    We have named these knives Yusaku and the kanji on the blade reflects this branding. The last character is pronounced Yu, but also can be pronounced as Suke when used in a name. The first kanji is Saku and it means work. So Yu-Saku means the work (or produced by) of Kousuke!

    These are high-value knives that belie their keen price. The overall package of well-executed grinds, good fit and finish, and an all-purpose design add up to a knife that will appeal to many users, both professional and home-based. This knife is mated to an urushi -finished handle in an octagonal shape.

My name is Mark Richmond and I am the owner along with my wife and business partner, Susan Brown. We have 3 great employees and work and live in Madison WI. The idea to start the knife business grew out of Sue's interest in cooking. We had run a brick and mortar retail store for 10 years and sold it in 2000. At that time, Sue decided to attend culinary school at Madison Area Technical College. As she began accumulating knives for school, I developed an interest in them myself and thought it might be a good product to retail online. I told Sue I wanted to run the business as a hobby out of a spare room in our house. She didn't object and the business quickly turned into a full-time job. After a year we moved the business out of our house and into an office just a few blocks from UW campus. In 2017, we moved the office to Fitchburg, WI. So here we are coming up on our 21st Anniversary, August 15th, 2023! The business has been successful and we are fortunate to be able to work together. Recently we expanded our knife selection to include 70+ different brands. Over time, we’ve become focused on bringing hand-crafted Japanese knives from small blacksmiths in Japan like Takeda, Moritaka, and Tanaka and this is the primary focus of our website along with Japanese sharpening stones. We are both proud of our selection and we are committed to fast shipping and excellent customer service. Sue and I moved to Madison 35 years ago from Massachusetts where we met. I grew up in Connecticut and New Jersey and graduated from Rutgers University with a BA in History and Political Science. Sue grew up in Massachusetts and graduated with a BA in English from UMass-Amherst. Thanks for reading and we really appreciate the support and friends we’ve made along the way."|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""||| ysw-site-variables||EMPTY.|""|""|""||||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""||| ytimes-mobile-styles||CSS.|""|""|""||||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""||| mss-reviewform||RAW-HTML.|""|""|""||||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""||| pd-template||MAIN.|"PD Template"|""|""||||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|"PD Template"|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""||| ytimes-site-variables||EMPTY.|""|""|""||||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""||| bootstrap-css||CSS.|""|""|""||||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""||| ksearch||INFO.|""|""|""||||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""|" "|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|||""|""|""|""|""|""|""|""||| solid-site-variables||MAIN.|"DO NOT DELETE THIS PAGE.

    To contact customer service about problems or shipping issues please email us at the above address. You can call us as well but emailing us gives us time to research your issue and give you a better response.

    The most common question we get is ""When will a certain item be back in stock?"" The answer is we never know for sure when items will arrive since many items are made by small blacksmith shops. If you're interested in a particular item please enter your email on the item page where it says ""Please enter your email address to be notified when the item is back-in-stock"" and we'll contact you immediately when it's available. We do not offer prepayments.
