Hado Ginsan Cherry Japanese craft knives are available here! Sakai 's artisan workshop brings you knives hand-forged by the renowned Shogo Yamatsuka, a specialist in Ginsan stainless steel. The blades of these hado sakai knives have a San Maï structure, where the 60 HRC Ginsan steel core is covered by a layer of softer stainless steel. Thanks to the work of the Traditional Master Craftsman, the cuts are clean, the cutting edge durable and easy to maintain with a stone. The hado ginsan handcrafted knives have also been sharpened by the workshop's head sharpener, Tadataka Maruyama, who gives the blades a razor-sharp edge for long-lasting cutting performance. The special feature of these blades is their kiritsuke-shaped tip, which allows them to be inserted more easily into food for easier cutting. A superb cherry wood handle completes the Hado Sakai Ginsan Japanese knives, giving them a whole new symbolism. Cherry wood, sacred in Japan, represents ephemeral nature, the beauty of things and life. The handle of your hand-forged Japanese knife is sturdy yet lightweight for optimum maneuverability. What's more, thanks to their octagonal shape, these Japanese kitchen knives are suitable for both right- and left-handed users. Whether you choose a santoku knife or an all-purpose knife, you're sure to have an efficient and elegant traditional Japanese knife. You'll also find Hado Sumi knives on our website!
