HADO Ginsan Pairing 90mm - Red Urushi

kr.1.999,00

HADO Knives is a relative newcomer to the game, based in the knife mecca capital of Sakai, Japan. They have really made a mark on the market with their incredibly well made and sought after products. They collaborate with some fantastic craftsmen such as Yoshikazu Tanaka as the blacksmith and master grinder, Tadataka Maruyama.

These knives are forged Shogou Yamatsuka and sharpened by Tadataka Maruyuma. Yamatsuka-san forges the knives in 3 layers, Ginsan in the core surrounded by stainless outer layers. The Ginsan steel was created to cut like carbon steel, without all the maintenance. They therefore take quite a bit of time and are easy to grind up, but they do not rust.

Tadataka-san's work here is truly world class. A true Sakai laser profile, with a thin blade and fantastic sharpening. A wide-bevel grind that exposes a lot of core steel, and a formidable kasumi finish.

A herb knife is used for the very fine cutting tasks where precision is paramount. Can alternatively also be used as a paring knife.

We have to admit that we are completely blown away by these knives.
