Really good lightweight and sharp knife. My old knife was too heavy, this one is much better.

Hi

This is my second Hamono knife... I love it... here is everything what one kitchen knife must have. Very good tool, I think my other knives will get rusty after that. If You don't know what I am talking about then buy one.
Very versatile tool, capable to perform finest cuts needed in kitchen. keep it sharp and it serve long years...

A great knife. Exactly what I expected. Very sharp. It almost fell through a big beef tomato I cut the other day. I’ll probably buy more knives from you in the future.

Very good knife for cutting vegetables, fruit, meat. Very sharp. Cuts tomato with only its own weight just moving the knife without any pressure. Thank you!

Quite sharp and easy balance in your hand while cutting. I like it very much. € 43,--. taxes to the Netherlands on top.

Great Knife

The knife is perfect. Just what I needed.

The knife was just like the one he built on the show. When I used it it was excellent. Cutting was so easy and the handle fits my hand very well. It is now my favorite knife

The knife arrived well packaged and on initial inspection was incredibly sharp. Very nice to handle and comfortable in the hand.
Much respect to Mr Nakamura and team. I will enjoy using this knife for many years.

Il est incroyablement beau et de très bonne qualité

The knife is beautiful and arrives extraordinarily sharp and elegantly packed. The blade has a pretty colourful sheen probably caused by the spark-erosion cutting of the cemented carbide.
It is a bit difficult to get out of the box and you are a bit tentative because it is so sharp.
Currently I am waiting to see how long the blade remains sharp but it has not needed sharpening yet.
Unlike some less expensive knives from Japan, on this one you have to pay duty and VAT on import into the UK.

Excellent knife.
It fits well in the hand, is very lightweight, and is well-balanced.
The package was carefully prepared and protected the knife perfectly.
Delivery took longer than expected, but I always received answers to my questions (thanks to Kei for being so helpful).
I am delighted with my purchase.

Great product, great craftmanship. Delivery very quick. Thank you very much.

I love the weight of this knife. So far my favorite, but I have to say the other two are a close second.

don't know yet i hope it is a quality hap40

Sehr schön, super einfach aber authentisch, bin gespannt wie lange es gute Dienste leisten wird.

Fast delivered, well packed. The knife is excellent crafted with a perfect handling and it is always a pleasure to work with it.
Thank you and greetings from Germany

Beautiful craftsmanship. Very light and has a very balanced feel.

Zo mooi in balans en zo ligt om mee te werken.
Iedere dag een feest om mee te snijden.

This tool is a different beast than the stainless knives we typically see in the West. It has personality and made of steel that, over time, will develop its own patina. The feel of this knife, for me, is comfortable and easy to control. It cuts effortlessly and clean. I have yet to sharpen it but look forward to it. So glad I got this heritage piece even if I don't use it everyday. It has soul. I have never purchased anything like this for the our kitchen. My wife loves it and we plan to get one for her brother this Christmas.

I am very happy to have got this marvellous knife. I am ver glad that the was manufactured by the professional hands of Mr. Nakamura. This knife occupies a very good place in our kitchen and I use it every time I can. After use I protect it with some droops of olive oil and it looks as the first day. Thanks to the team of Japanese Food Craftsman.

This knife exceeded my expectations

As good as the Sashimi knife was the Gyoto had some quality-issues in craftsmanship. It doesn't affect the functionality and the quality but the refinement is supposed to be part of the entire composed product. And of course I consider that it is 100% handmade. I love the products and the mentality behind. Maybe the next time it will better.

Beautifully crafted and slices/cuts like no other knife I’ve ever used. The order was delivered pretty fast considering it had to cross half the globe.

My new kitchen helper is way more than what I have expected. The hand crafted Nakiri is not just a piece of art of the highest quality, but a clear testiment of traditional japanese craftmanship perfection.
