Forged by Muneishi Hamono, the Kumokage series is a noteworthy line by Hatsukokoro, standing out as one of the few Tosa-made knives boasting consistent, thin grinds---they are thin behind the edge with some nice edge flex. Crafted from blue #2 steel and with a kurouchi damascus finish, these knives blend rustic aesthetics with superb performance. The handle is made of wenge wood which is an exotic dark brown wood known for its distinctive natural patterns, characterized by alternating dark and light streaks. Wenge is highly durable, making it an excellent choice for the handle material. The Kumokage line of knives offers exceptional cutting ability at a reasonable price, making it a great value.

The honesuki is a Japanese-style boning knife, optimized for precise cuts and deboning poultry. It has a sturdy, triangular blade for fine control and efficient boning tasks, making it a staple tool for any kitchen.
