Sakai Takayuki Homura Kogetsu Aogami #2 Japanese Chef's Petty Knife 150mm
Welcome to our online store, where we offer the finest Japanese kitchen cutlery. We are proud to introduce the Homura Aoko, a masterpiece crafted by skilled blacksmith Itsuo Doi, a member of a legendary blacksmith family with over 70 years of experience in producing some of the finest hand-forged knives.
The Homura Aoko's blade is made from Yasugi steel, renowned for its high carbon content and specifically developed for knives and tools. This steel provides exceptional wear resistance and toughness, making it an ideal choice for professional chefs. The knife's durability and sharpness are enhanced by Itsuo Doi's unique heat treatment, making it a must-have tool in any professional kitchen.
The handle is crafted from Japanese yew wood, known for its density, hardness, and lustrous beauty. The Japanese-style octagonal shape fits comfortably in your hand, providing a better grip and more control while cutting. The buffalo tsuba, accented with a beautiful copper ring, symbolizes high quality and excellent durability, catering to the needs of professional users.
The Homura Aoko is recommended for professional chefs looking to elevate their culinary skills or as a perfect gift for a cooking enthusiast.
