The Blacksmith
Goko Hamono is a small family run workshop based in Kashiwa City, Chiba Prefecture, Japan, which started off as a wholesaler before turning to knife making and manufacturing. Certified as “traditional craftsman” by The Association for the Promotion of Traditional Craft Industries in Japan, this small batch workshop specializes in Shirogami (white steel), clad in stainless steel, with a very rustic nashiji finish, super sharp out of the box. Made entirely in house by father son duo, Norihiko and Yoshito Yamakawa-san – these knives are 100% hand-crafted (forged, ground, and sharpened by hand) and are a joy to sharpen. The artisanal nature and pride in craftsmanship is extremely evident, in addition to being great value, handmade knives.
The Shape
The Gyuto is the Japanese equivalent to a standard western style Chef's knife and is THE most versatile shape available. It can be used to break down fish and other animals, chop vegetables with both an up and down and rocking motion, slice cooked and raw proteins and anything else you can think of. We highly recommend this shape to anyone looking for that one go to knife they can grab with confidence for any task.
