Hand-crafted using R2/SG2 high-speed powder steel, this Santoku 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. The finish of the jigane is truly unique on this knife - while the tsuchime patterns have an almost matt nashiji-like texture, giving this knife a sophisticated accent. As with all Nigara knives, the fit and finish of this knife are second to none. The blade is paired with a western-styled handle made of polished acrylic in Snow White pattern, with mosaic pins as decoration. Only One Available.

About Nigara Hamono 二唐刃物

With 350 years of history, starting from making swords for 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.

Soft and durable!
I bought this for my husband as a christmas gift and so far it’s been great quality! He works outside and I wanted to get something warm and soft for the winter. It’s been washed (and air dried) 3-4 times in the last couple of months and it’s held up great!! Such good quality for the price. He says it’s very soft and warm and prefers it over itchy wool.

Favorite. Hat. Ever.
I don't usually write reviews but I though I would this time for two reasons. Ordered one of these in black from Amazon and it showed up in a nice giftable box and the hat itself is really nice. Soft, warm cashmere. Favorite hat I've ever had. The fit is perfect. Not too large, not too small. Overall very impressive and a super reasonable value too! Here is my warning: There were different colors available of course, one of which was a dark green which became unavailable. So I went to Villand's website where they had the dark green available for purchase for $26. I bought a second hat from Villand directly and it TOOK 18 DAYS for delivery! There is no phone number for customers to call on Villands website. I wrote twice asking about the order and heard nothing back. The tracking number provided did not work until about three days prior to delivery. I was honestly surprised when it showed up in the mail. I thought the money was gone and no hat was ever giong to arrive. No idea where it was shipped from but assuming over seas somewhere. My recommendation is to purchase via Amazon and NOT FROM Villand directly.

Best beanie!
This was a Christmas gift and the receiver loved it! It was just what he wanted! Cashmere is always the best choice for comfort, softness, wearability and durability!
