Mizuno Tanrenjo Akitada Hontanren Series Knife is made with Ao-ko #2 (Blue Steel No.2; HRc. 62-63) and is the best-selling range of knives among Mizuno large selections.
Hontanren Series knife is forged, sharpened and polished using traditional methods and Mizuno Tanrenjo’s passion for fine craftsmanship ensures that these knives have outstanding sharpness and cutting performance.

A mainstay of professional Western kitchens, the Petty knife is a small general-purpose knife used for peeling, shaping, and slicing fruits and vegetables, chopping herbs, and making garnishes. The compact size and relatively narrow blade of the Petty knife mean that it is very nimble and controllable, thus it is ideal for making precise cuts.
Notice about White and Marbled Water Buffalo Horn Ferrules for Mizuno Tanrenjo Knives
Unfortunately, Mizuno Tanrenjo and most other knife makers are now struggling to find the raw materials to make White or Marbled Water Buffalo Horn Ferrules for their knife handles.
Due to these difficult and unfortunate circumstances, we regret to inform our customers that Mizuno Tanrenjo is no longer able to accept requests for a specific color of Water Buffalo Horn Ferrule. However, we firmly believe in the high quality and craftsmanship of Mizuno Tanrenjo’s traditionally-forged Japanese knives - They are one of the most well-respected producers of traditionally-forged Japanese knives - and we highly recommend them!
Thank you very much for your understanding and attention.
The Mizuno Tanrenjo Akitada Hontanren Series Blue Steel No.2 was a Christmas gift for our son. He has been collecting Japanese Chefs Knives and it was one he was hoping to purchase next. He was very happy when he opened the package. He has used it several times already. He is very protective of his new knives and has told the rest of us in the household... "hands off"! 😆 I know he will enjoy many years with this knife and we will be rewarded with the meals he makes for us using his beautiful treasures. Thank you to the amazing skilled artisans.
Very good knife. Sharp and comfortable
I love the knif. It was delivered fast and according to expectations. Going to by from them again👍
I am very impressed with the performance and build on this knife. The lengt of a 150 mm is quite perfect for some of the work I do in the kitchen
This is a super sharp high quality knife that also fits great in my hand. For me, life is too short to be using other knives. Stands out among knives.
