ABOUT YOSHIKANE HAMONO

Yoshikane Hamono is a well-famed blacksmith and is regarded as one of the most quality knife makers in Japan since its inception in 1919. They are led by Kazutoshi Yamamoto, the 4th generation blacksmith. Their workshop has doubled as a school for blacksmiths, training many of our favourites over the years. In typical sanjo fashion, their knives feature thick tangs and exceptional grinds, and are known for being some of the sharpest knives out of the box.
