Nakagawa x Tokushu White #1 Mizu Honyaki Tall Gyuto 210mm
If you're seeking exceptional craftsmanship in Japanese kitchen knives, look no further. We're proud to present the Nakagawa x Tokushu White #1 Mizu Honyaki Tall Gyuto 210mm—a collaboration that brings you the finest in honyaki knife making. Forged by master blacksmith Satoshi Nakagawa, this Tokushu product exemplifies the pinnacle of traditional Japanese blade forging.
Crafting a honyaki knife is one of the most challenging feats in blacksmithing. The process involves forging the blade from a single piece of high-quality steel and water quenching (mizu honyaki), which is significantly more demanding than oil quenching. Only a few master smiths can successfully create a mizu honyaki without the blade cracking, making these knives rare and highly sought after.
Satoshi Nakagawa is a renowned honyaki knife maker whose expertise shines in this White #1 Mizu Honyaki Tall Gyuto. Forged from Shirogami (White) Steel #1, this knife features a thinner blade than most, allowing for smoother, more precise cuts. The blade achieves an impressive hardness of HRC 65, thanks to the meticulous water-quenching process. This method often results in many cracked blades, but when executed flawlessly, it produces a knife of exceptional quality and performance.
If you're considering adding a honyaki knife to your collection, the 210mm Honyaki Gyuto is an indispensable choice. Combining an ideal length and versatile style, this knife showcases a level of craftsmanship that only a few masters like Nakagawa-san have perfected.
