Introducing

Sakai Kikumori

Sakai Kikumori was founded in 1926 by Kawamura Hamono as a wholesaler, and they work with some of the best blacksmiths in Japan. The Nihonko are a stellar workhorse knife range using SK carbon steel. Think FKM, but with better edge retention. A comfortable, tapered western handle with classic blade profiles means a brilliant robust all-rounder with great performance for an excellent price.

Blade Type

The Gyuto is the general purpose chef knife to suit many tasks, including cutting larger meats and vegetables. It is the most commonly found knife type in many professional kitchens around the world.

Steel Type

High-carbon steel made by Hitachi Metals in Japan. It has a 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.

Recomended Maintenance

· Store your knife in a dry environment away from leather pouches or any sources of moisture.

· To maintain your Japanese knives’ sharp edge use a
whetstone. Stones are available on our website.
