Step into the centuries-old tradition of Japanese knife-making with the Moritaka Hamono Aogami Super Kurouchi 130mm Kamagata. Moritaka Hamono, a brand with roots reaching back to the 13th century, blends samurai sword forging heritage with exceptional kitchen knife craftsmanship. This 130mm Kamagata knife is a testament to Moritaka’s enduring quality, forged by a blacksmith lineage that spans over 725 years and 31 generations.

Crafted with an Aogami Super (Blue Super Steel) core, this knife offers remarkable sharpness and edge retention.
