{"product_id":"kenji-togashi-aogami1-mizuhonyaki-gyuto-210mm","title":"Kenji Togashi aogami#1 mizuhonyaki gyuto 210mm","description":"\u003cp\u003eHandforged in Sakai, Japan by blacksmith Kenji Togashi, with sharpening by Nori Igarashi of Yamawaki Hamono. This 210mm gyuto is forged from Aogami #1 (Blue #1), water-quenched. The full mirror finish already shows the hada\/banding. As patina develops with use, the banding becomes more pronounced (etching will bring it out immediately if you don't want to wait). At 210mm, it's a natural fit for smaller kitchens or anyone who prefers a more compact blade for everyday use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogashi-san's aogami #1 is easier to sharpen than most people expect from a honyaki at this hardness. It responds well on the stone and gets back to a keen edge without much effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Goh Umanosuke Yoshihiro knives\" href=\"https:\/\/zahocho.com\/collections\/yoshihiro-japanese-knives\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGoh Umanosuke Yoshihiro\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlacksmith:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Kenji Togashi knives\" href=\"https:\/\/zahocho.com\/collections\/kenji-togashi\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKenji Togashi\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSharpener:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nori Igarashi (Yamawaki Hamono)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducing Area:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sakai, Japan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKnife Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/zahocho.com\/collections\/honyaki-knives\" title=\"Honyaki knives\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMizuhonyaki\u003c\/a\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/zahocho.com\/collections\/gyuto-knives\" title=\"Gyuto knives\" target=\"_blank\"\u003egyuto\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full mirror\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSteel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aogami #1 (Blue #1)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHRC:\u003c\/strong\u003e ~65\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBlade and Handle Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverall length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 350mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade length - heel to tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e 201mm (7.9\")\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlade height at heel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 46.6mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpine thickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eat the handle: 3.1mm\u003cbr\u003eat the heel: 3.0mm\u003cbr\u003emidway: 2.4mm\u003cbr\u003e1cm from the tip: 0.7mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdge\/bevel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50:50\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e octagonal ebony handle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand orientation:\u003c\/strong\u003e ambidextrous\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSaya \/ sheath:\u003c\/strong\u003e none\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCertificate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Included\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ea.
