We at Tosho are very excited to present the Hinode line, made by a 4th generation smith in his late 30's working under his father in Sanjo city. By combining his own vision with knowledge his father gathered from extensive testing of metals, the kitchen knives produced from the Hinode line have a craftsmanship quality second to none. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe knives from the Mutsumi Hinoura sport a very flat bevel, making them an ideal project for wide bevel sharpening as well as polishing. In addition, any carbon steel enthusiast will appreciate the high performing carbon edge that develops patina over time, creating a wonderful contrast with the kurouchi finish. These knives have a sturdy spine but are very thin behind the edge, so please use them with a gentle hand to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eavoid potential chipping.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e For those looking for their first carbon steel knife or those already acquainted with carbon steel and are interested in wide bevel polishing and sharpening, look no further than these Ajikataya.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA chef's knife ('Gyuto' in Japanese) is the most versatile blade that can handle almost anything in the kitchen. Their shape and often generous edge length mean that whether it's cutting small tomatoes or portioning a large roast, you can do it with one blade. Most cooks have multiple chef's knives and it is not hard to justify getting one more when it has so much utility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrand: Hitohira ひとひら \u003cbr\u003eSmith: Mutsumi Hinoura 日野浦 睦 \u003cbr\u003eProducing Area: Sanjo-Niigata\/ Japan \u003cbr\u003eProfile: Gyuto \u003cbr\u003eSize: 240mm \u003cbr\u003eSteel Type: Carbon Steel \u003cbr\u003eSteel: White (Shirogami) #2, Soft Iron Clad \u003cbr\u003eHandle: Ho Wood \u0026amp; Buffalo Horn Ferrule D-Shape \u003cbr\u003eTotal Length: 400mm \u003cbr\u003eEdge Length: 242mm \u003cbr\u003eHandle to Tip Length: 256mm \u003cbr\u003eBlade Height: 51mm \u003cbr\u003eThickness: 2.4mm \u003cbr\u003eHandle Length: 142mm \u003cbr\u003eWeight: 188g \u003cbr\u003eHand Orientation: Ambidextrous\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ajikataya","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":50527248318657,"sku":"AAA-604-05-FA240","price":425.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blonde","offer_id":50527248351425,"sku":"AAA-604-05-FA241","price":425.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0873\/5660\/4609\/files\/20231018-160740.jpg?v=1787663232","url":"https:\/\/toshoknifearts.shop\/products\/aaa-604-05-fa240","provider":"toshoknifearts.shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
