About the Blacksmith
Nao Yamamoto (born 1979) is a certified master blacksmith from Takefu (Echizen), Japan. He trained extensively at two renowned knife-making workshops: Asai Hamono (1998) and Kamotou Hamono under Shiro Kamo (1999). In 2013, he established Yamamoto Uchi Hamono, his own knife-making workshop. His mastery of traditional Japanese knife-forging earned him the Dento Kougeishi (Traditional Craftsmen) certification in 2019.
Each knife is hand-forged, so no two are exactly alike. The photo shows a randomly selected piece from our stock. If you want to see the exact knife you'll receive, email us at info@zahocho.com.
Minor variations in finish, surface marks, and measurements are normal in handcrafted Japanese knives.
Handle is fitted by the maker and shipped as-is. We don't offer handle swaps.

Why is the blade length different from the displayed size? The size in the product title is a nominal reference used by knife makers. The actual blade can be slightly longer or shorter due to handcrafting and traditional sizing. Each product page lists the exact measured length.
