Hand-crafted using R2/SG2 high-speed powder steel, this Kiritsuke Sujihiki is beautifully grinded with superb thinness behind-the-edge supported by the 62-63 HRC hardness. Being a guru of steel manipulation and expert on steel construction, Nigara Hamono created a unique Tsuchime pattern that is reminiscent of industrial steel beam, while the Kurouchi finish gives this knife a characterful accent.

About Nigara Hamono 二唐刃物

With 350 years of history, starting from making swords for the Tsugaru clan in the early Edo period, Nigara Hamono has passed down know-how and skills for eight generations. Its 5th generation blacksmith Kunitoshi Nigara was a legendary sword maker, earning a long list of accolades, honorary titles, and knighthood. The current (8th) generation blacksmith — Tsuyoshi Yoshizawa is supported by his father Toshiju Yoshizawa who has a keen interest in art and music. Nigara’s famous Anmon design is the result of Toshiju’s love for Andy Warhol’s artworks. The family business’ expansion into construction steelworks has given Nigara unmatched access to in-house know-how when it comes to advanced finishing. All these set Nigara apart as one of the most special knife makers in Japan.

Care:

Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethylene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

Don't Waste Your Money
Bought this 2 year protection plan and come to find out it doesn't even cover simple stuff like our mattress losing it's shape and stability. A mattress should last longer than 1 1/2 years before it starts caving in and the foam and springs start to give. So disappointed. Asurion Protection is a waste of money.

love my new chairs
best darn chairs for big people (450lbs)..iv ever purchased.the fabric is way thicker then the cheaper chairs thats out there.....only thing i have a slight concern about is the connectors ((made of plastic)) which hold the frameing in place....that could lead to a problem....thats what usually fails on most chairs iv purchased in the past...so i bought a 2 year protection plan just for that reason.but if i was to give it a rateing i would give it a 9 out of 10...one more thing if your a tall person its alot easerier to get up out of the chair because it sits higher then cheaper versions.
