Product Features
Smoothly cut raw fish and roasted meat
This knife is for cutting sashimi. It has a single blade that cuts through the fibers, so it separates the meat easily, creating a beautiful surface and a pleasant texture. This knife is characterized by its pulling motion as it cuts. It can be used to neatly cut not only sashimi, but also raw chunks of meat and cooked meat.
Takohiki is a type of sashimi knife used in the Kanto region, and while a typical takohiki has a rectangular tip, the rounded tip is rounded.
Shiragami No. 2 has a long-lasting sharpness and is easy to sharpen
This steel has a good balance between ease of sharpening and lasting sharpness.
Thanks to the highly skilled craftsmen, the blades are thin and neatly sharpened, making this a series with excellent cutting ability.
Since the steel is made of iron, it is prone to rust, but compared to stainless steel it has a sharper cutting edge and is easier to sharpen.

FAQ
Yes, but for online orders, we offer a free engraving service for knives only. Please select the desired engraving option, enter text and add the knife to cart. Engraving for products other than knives is only available at our physical store at Kappabashi, Tokyo.
Most of the chipping can be repaired by re-sharpening the blade. We offer a fee-based knife sharpening service. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask us using the inquiry form. Blades can chip by cutting hard ingredients such as bones, seeds or frozen food, dropping and mishandling, or stabbing into hard cutting boards.
All knives we handle can be repaired with the exception of knives that are severely damaged. Repairing chipping and removing rust will restore sharpness and allow you to use your knives for a longer period of time. We also offer a fee-based knife sharpening service.
Please note we may not be able to repair knives with unknown blade materials, such as knives purchased at other stores.
