Premium Tetsujin Hamono Blue #2 Kasumi 180mm Nakiri Knife - Japanese Carbon Steel Chef's Blade for Precision Vegetable Chopping & Slicing - Ideal for Home Cooks & Professional Kitchens

Tetsujin Hamono is a brand bringing two highly skilled individuals together. Naohito Myojin as the sharpener, also the current sharpener behind the Konosuke Fujiyama FM line. And Toru Tamura as the smith. Together their products are typically quite 'showy' in terms of steel, most popular for their "Metal Flow", as well as provide the user with gorgeous well executed finishes thanks to Myojin-san.

For those that have been in the Japanese kitchen knife business for a while, there is something particular about pairing blue (aogami) steel #2 with the ethereal finish of kasumi. Here, the kasumi is on soft carbon steel meaning it will change, fade, and react over time to create patterns so beautiful you'll think them mirages. See what I did there? Ethereal, mirages, throwing in all the big words. That's because these knives are worth throwing in the big words.

This is among the second batch of nakiri's Tetsujin Hamono has made! Get them while you can. A nakiri will quickly become your go to vegetable prep knife. The flat surface along the length of the cutting edge means you can say goodbye to accordion cuts. Most nakiris sit at 165mm so consider yourself lucky to now have an extra 15mm for a total of 180mm of veggie cutting prep machine. Will you notice the extra 15mm? Absolutely! Pick one up and find out for yourself.
