Tabata Hamono is a small blacksmith shop on Tanagashima Island, located south of Kagoshima Prefecture in Kyushu. They make this sujihiki with Blue #2 steel, stainless cladding, and a kasumi finish. Chefknivestogo is proud to be the first dealer for this company in the USA. The handle is made of oak with a urushi finish that makes it water resistant (but not waterproof!). If you're looking for a nice, handmade knife by a Japanese blacksmith this is a good choice at a reasonable price.
