This is a food prep knife designed for users who value excellent sharpness and edge retention and who can tolerate the reactivity of the blade as they are prone to discolor food they come in contact with. 

The blades are hand-forged stainless-clad Aogami Super (Blue Super) steel, which offers exceptional edge retention but must be kept dry.

The handles are Cherry and pakkawood.

The Tsunehisa line of knives are hand-made in Tosa, Japan by the Hokiyama factory. This factory specializes in making knives for many different wholesalers who then stamp their own brand onto the knives. This results in price mark-ups. We prefer the factory stamp to keep the price as low as possible. Tsunehisa knives offer one of the best ways to get high-performance knives at the lowest possible price.

Kitchen knives are used to cut the ingredients in your food. Japanese kitchen knives are famous for their sharpness and edge retention. Japanese chef knives are brittle and are designed for cutting soft tissue foods. High Carbon steel chef knives can rust if not kept dry.
