Each blade is carefully forged and finished by skilled Japanese craftsmen, ensuring a perfect bond between the core and the cladding metals.
The result is a knife that offers outstanding cutting performance, durability, and ease of maintenance—ideal for both professional chefs and home cooks alike.

  • Do not use the knife for any purpose other than food preparation.
  • Always use a knife suitable for its intended purpose.
    Using this knife to cut frozen foods, bones, or other hard materials may cause the blade to chip, crack, or break. Please use a specialized knife for those tasks.

  • Rust Prevention
    After each use, wash the knife thoroughly with water or lukewarm water, then wipe off all moisture with a dry cloth before storing.
    If you do not plan to use the knife for an extended period, apply a thin layer of vegetable oil (such as salad oil) to the blade to help prevent rust.
    If rust does appear, gently polish the affected area using a mild abrasive cleaner.
  • Sharpening
    Proper sharpening is essential to maintain the knife’s cutting performance.
    Ideally, the blade should be sharpened about once every ten days.
    When sharpening at home, use a medium-grit synthetic whetstone for best results.

    1. First, as shown in the diagram, place a wet cloth or towel under the whetstone to keep it from moving while you sharpen.
    careandmaintenanceofknives-01 2. For single-bevel knives, sharpen the beveled side at an angle of about 15 degrees, as illustrated.
    careandmaintenanceofknives-02 3. When sharpening the knife, keep your fingers together and apply pressure to one area at a time.
    Move the blade slowly and evenly back and forth to achieve a consistent edge.
    careandmaintenanceofknives-03 4. When a rough sensation—known as a burr—appears along the edge, gently sharpen the reverse side of the blade two or three times, just enough to remove the burr.
    careandmaintenanceofknives-04 *For double-edged knives, sharpen both sides of the blade the same number of times.
    When sharpening, make sure the knife does not wobble on the whetstone.
    Move it straight, quietly, slowly, and with a steady rhythm to achieve an even edge.
    After sharpening, wash the knife thoroughly, remove any moisture, and let it dry completely before storing.
