Masutani Hamono

Masutani-san works out of the Takefu knife village with his son and law and grandson. He makes beautiful knives that perform at a higher level than their price would suggest. They are extremely sharp out of the box and are very beautiful to look at as well. It should be noted that the handle colours don't perfectly match on these two knives and the petty has a darker blue handle while the Nakiri have a lighter blue handle. 


Takefu Knife Village

The Takefu knife Village is a cooperative workshop in the Echizen region of Japan. It is the home to a long list of blacksmiths that we work with and many young and upcoming apprentices learning the trade. The area has a 700 year long history of smithing with roots in agricultural tools turned cutlery powerhouse. 


The Knives

Included in this set is a 165 mm (6.5") Nakiri and a 135 mm (5.5") Petty knife. They make a great pairing for any home cook looking to upgrade their kitchen knife game. Made from a stainless steel called VG-10 they are rust resistant and will never discolour. 

The Nakiri is a vegetable cleaver that has great board contact for push cutting or chopping techniques, and is great to scoop up ingredients like a bench scraper. Couple this Nakiri with a Petty knife which is used for smaller random tasks like slicing steaks, small aromatics prep and other more intricate tasks in addition to being a great butchery knife and you have a set of knives that can accomplish 99% of what you will come across in the kitchen. 



Knife Care (Stainless Steel)

  • Although this knife is made from stainless steel we do still encourage our customers to keep their knives as dry and clean as possible.
  • NO DISHWASHER - the high heat will ruin the wooden handle.
  • Wash and dry by hand using regular dish soap and warm water using a none abrasive sponge or cloth.
  • Ensure the knife is dry before being put away for storage and ensure the edge of the knife is protected to avoid any unnecessary dulling.
  • Avoid Bones, Frozen foods, nuts and hard candies or anything other than fruits, vegetables and proteins.

STEEL TYPE

VG-10

Likely the most widely used Japanese stainless steel, it provides great rust resistance, very good edge retention, and is relatively easy to sharpen. Because of how many companies use this steel to produce their knives, it can sometimes get a bad rep, but we have had nothing but positive experiences using and sharpening it. Knives made from this steel are generally a bit more affordable compared to those made from steels like R2 and ZDP189 while still offering fantastic performance and easy maintenance.

Chemical Composition:
C 0.95-1.05% | Cr 14.5-15.5% | Mo 0.9-1.2% | V 0.1-0.3% | Co 1.3-1.5%
