Introducing

Takamura

Takamura Hamono is headed by Terukazu Takamura, a third generation blacksmith who inherited the factory from his father. Their knives are crafted in Echizen, Fukui, the now famous knife making area of Japan. "Refined and elegant" would be the best words to describe the work that Takamura Hamono produces. Their knives are perfectly balanced, finished with the highest level of attention and care, and represent excellent value for money.

Blade Type

The Petty is a smaller utility knife, often ranging from 120-150mm. It is for fine dicing, mincing, and off-board work.

Steel Type

Chromax is a proprietary steel used by Takamura. Think of it like SKD on steroids. It's a carbon steel known for it's insane edge retention at HRC64-65, semi-stainless properties, and incredible value. A must-try for lovers of carbon steel.

Very sharp knife and I love the handle

Fantastic knife for the money

This knife is super sharp, light and feels good to use. The edge retention is excellent. You need to dry it carefully as the high carbon core will discolour.

An excellent product for the price

Takamura chromax petty

I just bought this knife relatively out of impulse. I don’t have a petty and I thought to myself it would be nice to have one, and the price of 170 which is absolutely nothing is amazing. These takamura chromax punch well above their price. I love this little knife. Light as ****, amazing fit and finish, excellent grind, and almost 100% stainless. It will be a very convenient little knife that requires almost no maintenance, unlike some of my other knives which have to be oiled after every time I use them due to insane reactivity. If I had my time over again, this would be the exact petty I buy. The performance and price is excellent. You can easily blow 500 on a petty. I’ve always heard good things about the takamura knives, I’d like to try the takamura sg2.

The shipping was super quick (and free). I think it shipped Friday and was here Monday with startrak express. From WA to QLD that’s awesome speed! Thanks
