Experience Japanese Craftsmanship: Satoshi Nakagawa Honyaki Knife

Experience the finesse of Japanese craftsmanship with this exquisite honyaki knife from the renowned blacksmith, Satoshi Nakagawa. Hailing from Sakai, Japan, a city with a rich history of traditional blade-making, Nakagawa-san has garnered immense respect for his unparalleled success rate in honyaki construction and the unmatched sharpness of his creations.

This particular Kiritsuke Gyuto stands as a testament to Nakagawa-san's skill and dedication. Crafted meticulously from revered Hitachi Shirogami #3 (White #3) carbon steel, this knife is not just a tool but an artwork. Shirogami #3 is celebrated for its exceptional ability to achieve and retain a razor-sharp edge, ensuring precision with every cut.

The knife's hamon, or temper line, showcases a regular wave pattern, revealing the stunning transition from the hardened cutting edge to the softer spine. This intricate detail is a hallmark of traditional Japanese blades and speaks volumes about the knife's quality and craftsmanship.

Complementing the blade is a solid mixed-color buffalo horn handle, seamlessly paired with a black buffalo horn ferrule. This combination not only ensures a comfortable grip but also adds an elegant touch to the knife's overall aesthetics.

Life changing

World-class, 1 of 1 type of knife for the style & length by SN. This particular line feels SO MUCH smaller (in length), and overall height in hand, than it actually is.

I am so fortunate and truly blessed/honored, to be purchasing his "little brother," the 210mm-version. As I know both how rare this offering is (literally the only 2 in the world), and in addition to that, and perhaps more importantly, (for sure to me), how LIFE CHANGING the experience is/was, using this blade from the "Wizard" SN and touched up by "our" very own, U.S. in house-based sharpening "wizard," Zach Peters! There is NO ONE better residing within the states (IMO), in his area of expertise.

This "unicorn" is still available and would make any "small needs" knife-appropriate work the most pleasurable experience possible.
