The Blacksmith 

Hatsukokoro brings in masters of smithing, sharpening, and handle making to ensure quality, and a high attention to detail on their knives, so you know that you will be getting an amazing work knife. 

The Hayabusa series is a new offering from Hatsukokoro and we are so excited to have them in the shop! This line comes to us from Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, Japan – imbued by its Falcon namesake, these knives are super light and thin, putting them on the laser-y side for sure. They have a curvier profile, making them great for rocking through ingredients, like herbs and garlic. Excellent value, factory made knives – perfect choice for the working chef or home cook who does not want to break the bank.

The Knife

The gyuto is an all purpose knife and the Japanese equivalent to the western chef's knife, and 210mm is the equivalent of the standard 8 inch variation of that knife. From slicing, dicing, chopping, and carving the gyuto can do it all, and this one in particular has a hybrid profile that has enough sweep to rock and a big enough flat spot on the heel to chop comfortably. The Blue core steel is incredibly easy to sharpen to hair popping levels, and being a touch thicker with more of a workhorse grind you don't need to be super worried about chipping, and with the stainless cladding you get all that performance with minimal exposed carbon to worry about rusting on you! 



Knife Care (Stainless Clad)

  • This knife is made from 3 layers of steel using a technique called Sanmai (Forge welding). It involves laminating a piece of Carbon steel with two pieces of Stainless steel giving the knife all the benefits of the carbon steel (Edge retention, ease of sharpening, cutting feel) and the Ease of Maintenance from Stainless steel. 2-3 millimeters of the carbon steel is exposed at the edge of the knife and is susceptible to rust and discouloration if not properly maintained.
  • Simply Wipe the knife with a damp cloth immediately after use to keep it from rusting or discouloring.
  • Wash with regular dish soap and warm water using a none abrasive sponge or cloth.
  • Never put your knife in the Dishwasher. The extreme heat will ruin the wooden handle.
  • Highly acidic ingredients (Onions, Tomatoes, Citrus) Will cause rust and oxidation to happen faster, thus the user must ensure the knife is wiped clean immediately after working with such an ingredient.
  • Should any rust form it can be removed using a rust eraser or a mixture of Baking soda and water to simply scrub it clean.
  • Avoid Bones, Frozen foods, nuts and hard candies, parmesan rinds, woody stems or anything other than fruits, vegetables and proteins.
