A Japanese chef's knife handcrafted in Toyama, Japan by Sukenari Hamono. This 270mm gyuto has a HAP40 core with stainless damascus cladding. HAP40 is a semi-stainless steel mainly known for its edge retention. It will develop a patina over time, though far more slowly than a typical carbon steel. Stainless cladding keeps maintenance simple and limits reactivity to the exposed core. It comes paired with an octagonal bocote handle with buffalo horn ferrule. Bocote is a dense and stable wood with striking dark stripes.

Each knife is handcrafted, 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, just email us at info@zahocho.com.
Minor variations in finish, surface marks, and measurements are normal in handcrafted Japanese knives.
