Description & specifications
HADO Knives is a relatively new player in the game, based in the knife mecca's capital, Sakai, Japan. They have truly made a name for themselves in the market with their incredibly well-made and sought-after products. They collaborate with some fantastic artisans, such as Yoshikazu Tanaka.
These knives are made by the aforementioned gentleman. Tanaka-san has built the knife in 3 layers with Shirogami #1 in the core and surrounded by softer stainless steel.
The grinder's work here is truly world-class. A true Sakai laser profile, with a thin blade and fantastic grinding. A wide-bevel grind that exposes a lot of core steel, and a formidable kasumi finish.
The knife is a Petty and is used for smaller tasks. Trimming meat, preparing vegetables, and finesse work where one needs to get close to the subject.
We have to admit that we are completely blown away by these knives.

Maintenance & use
Never cut into bones or frozen items as this may damage the egg. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly immediately.
Please note that both the blade and handle can be seriously damaged and broken if the knife is washed in a dishwasher – this also applies to stainless steel and wooden handles.
