Introducing

Fukamizu

Made in a small factory in Kagoshima, Japan, Fukamizu knives represent excellent value for money whilst using traditional high-carbon Japanese steels. The company was founded in 1915 and carry on making kitchen knives to this day. At the lower end of the price range for handmade knives, the Fukamizu use walnut handles with plastic ferrules, with the grinds being a little thicker than usual. These knives are thus not as fragile as others, and some thinning would result in a knife that punches far above it's price point.

These knives are shipped with a protective lacquer, you may notice a light yellow/brown residue on the blade.

Blade Type

The Santoku is a general purpose kitchen knife, mostly used for cutting smaller meat and vegetables. Sizes for the Santoku range from 130-180mm, with 165mm being the most popular.

Steel Type

Blue Steel is a traditional, high-carbon steel made by Hitachi Metals in Japan. It is the favourite steel of many knife makers and chefs across the world for it’s fantastic edge holding ability, toughness, and ease of sharpening. It contains few stainless elements, and as such will develop a patina, and may develop rust spots if left wet after use.
