Since ancient times, the Japanese Katana has been admired for its ability to take an extremely sharp edge and function without bending or breaking. Mizuno Tanrenjo’s Honyaki knives are being crafted using similar traditional methods to achieve the same functionality as the legendary Katana.
The inheritance of these traditional swordsmithing techniques allows Master Mizuno to bring out the maximum performance and beauty from the Hagane used to create these Honyaki Wa-Bocho masterpieces.
We are proud to introduce Mizuno Tanrenjo’s wonderful and beautiful Hamon layer of Honyaki Series (White Steel), which is heat-treated and to an incredible HRc. 64-65.
The tall blade and rounded nose / tip of the Santoku make it a versatile knife that is well suited to cutting meat, fish, or vegetables; Hence it’s name, which literally means “Three-purpose”. The Santoku is often recommended as a multi-purpose kitchen knife.
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.
I have used this knife exclusively for the last three days, and sharpened it at the end of every day. I enjoy how this knife feels on my water stones and how easily it saturates the mud with metal. It holds a great edge. The mirror polish finish allows a pleasant grace period for drying to knife before needing a bit of hand polish. It's a very classy knife, but also cute and nimble.
I love how sharp this knife is but it did begin to turn rather quickly. I only used a scrub brush with dish soap to clean it. So, I’m not sure what I did to make it turn.
Excellent knife that shipped quickly. Recommended.
Comes with no cutting edge so might want to get it sharpened by JCK if want to use it right away.
Magnifique couteau finition miroir avec un tranchant rasoir. Un bel objet d'art finalement. Excellente communication comme d'habitude et un service irréprochable. 5 étoiles sans aucun doute.
