Specifications
The Nakagawa Aogami #1 Honyaki Tall Gyuto 240mm is a handcrafted Japanese knife forged by Sakai-based blacksmith Satoshi Nakagawa. This gyuto features a tall blade profile and a workhorse grind.
Aogami honyaki knives have a less visible hamon than their Shirogami counterparts. To enhance visibility, acid etching can be performed, which may also reveal some banding.
What Is a Honyaki?
Honyaki (本焼), which translates to "true-fired" in Japanese, represents the pinnacle of traditional Japanese knife craftsmanship, deeply rooted in swordsmithing techniques. These knives are crafted from a single piece of steel and undergo differential heat treatment, producing a blade with a resilient spine and a hard, sharp edge, distinguished by the hamon boundary. Due to the high failure rate during production—often resulting in blade cracking or warping during quenching—the required expertise and high risk contribute to the higher cost of honyaki knives compared to laminated blades.
For the care and maintenance of Japanese knives, such as this Nakagawa Aogami #1 Honyaki Tall Gyuto knife, please refer to our care guide.
Slight measurement variations are typical in handcrafted Japanese kitchen knives.
Minor cosmetic variations, such as light surface marks or fine scuffs, are common in handcrafted knives.
