Product Details
Our Custom-Order Yoshihiro Honyaki White Steel #1 Kiritsuke is a testament to the finest traditional Japanese craftsmanship, available only through special request. Honyaki, translating to "true forged," represents the purest form of Japanese blade-making—a process where a single piece of White Steel #1 is meticulously heated to thousands of degrees and then expertly quenched in cool water, achieving an extraordinary Rockwell hardness of 66. This knife embodies a harmonious blend of aesthetic beauty and precise functionality, crafted by master artisans with over 50 years of expertise in the art of Japanese sword-making.
The Mt. Fuji Crescent Moon Hamon design on the blade is exquisitely mirror-polished, offering a visual depth that reflects the highest levels of knifemaking skill. Paired with a handcrafted Ebony octagonal handle adorned with a triple silver ring Water Buffalo horn bolster, each detail is designed to enhance the knife's elegance and functionality. This single-edged Kiritsuke includes an Ebony Saya cover for added protection and beauty, making it the ideal all-purpose knife for slicing, dicing, and detailed work. Please note that this knife is not stain-resistant; hand washing and immediate drying are recommended for longevity.
