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.
A 240mm sujihiki - sujihiki literally translates to "flesh slicer" - is a very typical length for slicing a small portion of meat in one single swooping motion, or a larger portion of meat sawing back and forth with minimal tearing. Now a kiritsuke sujihiki is basically a sujihiki design, but with a kiritsuke tip, or k-tip. You've now given your flesh slicer a little more versatility so you can score your chicken breast or let's be honest, functionality aside, it makes the sujihiki look more aggressive.

Steel, Construction and Care
Our catalog includes stainless, semi-stainless and carbon steels selected for edge performance and durability. Carbon steels may develop a patina, while stainless steels are designed to resist discoloration. Follow the care guidance on each product page, hand wash only and dry the knife promptly after use.
Absolutely beautiful blade. After 2 weeks of use, I am able to say that it is a very well balanced blade, and the blue steel #2 along with a superior blade geometry, allows multiple days of use before needing to sharpen. If used to slice fatty proteins such as fish, the oils react with the blade to create a beautiful blue-grey patina, which is what Tetsujin aims for with this line of knives.
When selecting a handle, the handling service is included and free, which Tony helped calm my nerves when I forgot to read the fine print. His team does an amazing job with the fitment of the handle to achieve a well-balanced product.
All-in-all, this is a fine addition to the collection, and well worth the money.
First & foremost. Customer service from Tokushu is top notch. I actually ordered a different knife which had issues before they even shipped. They contacted me and refunded my initial order. I’m beyond happy that’s the route it took because this knife is beyond description. The fit and finish on myojin blades are exceptional. Worth every cent!
Thanks guys!
