Ce couteau a été fabriqué par un forgeron nommé YAMATSUKA Shougo. Un forgeron est un artisan qualifié qui travaille le métal en utilisant des techniques telles que le forgeage et le soudage pour créer divers produits métalliques. C'est un couteau très précieux.

<Acier de Damas>
Les couteaux de cuisine japonais en acier de Damas sont un type d'acier fabriqué traditionnellement depuis l'Antiquité. Ses fonctionnalités incluent :

- Beau motif : l'acier Damas crée des motifs en superposant ou en pliant différents types d'acier. Cela crée un beau motif sur toute la lame, résultant en une belle et luxueuse finition.

-Dureté élevée : Parce que l'acier Damas est forgé en superposant différents types d'acier, sa dureté est augmentée. De plus, la stratification crée une structure cristalline fine à l'intérieur de la lame, améliorant encore sa résistance.

- Netteté : l'acier Damas a une dureté élevée, ce qui facilite le maintien d'un bord tranchant et prolonge sa netteté. De plus, la structure cristalline fine permet une arête vive et facilite la coupe de matériaux même glissants.

-Durabilité: La superposition d'acier Damas améliore sa résistance et sa durabilité. Le processus de forgeage élimine également les impuretés et les bulles d'air de l'intérieur de l'acier, ce qui réduit les défauts et le rend très résistant à l'usure et à la corrosion.

<Yanagiba>
Yanagiba est un couteau japonais qui peut être utilisé pour faire du sashimi sans endommager les fibres de la chair du poisson. Ce couteau est indispensable pour ceux qui cuisinent du poisson, notamment des sashimis.

The Origin of Craftsmanship

  • A Knife That Connects, Not Just Cuts

    Knowledge is what breathes life into a tool.
    Understanding the nature of steel, sensing the will of fire, reading the fleeting moment of quenching—
    But that alone is not enough.

  • Why do we make this?

    Without confronting that question, a truly good knife cannot be born.A knife is not merely a tool for cutting.

    It is a quiet vessel of tradition, one that supports the skill of the chef and lingers in the memory of those who taste the food.

    When a slice of sashimi melts on the tongue,

    what lies behind that moment is the focused precision of the chef—

    and the unseen work of the blacksmith’s hands.

    The type of steel, the depth of the temper, the angle of the edge, the balance of the handle—

    Each decision is made with one thought:

    Will this feel right in someone’s hands, years from now?

    In our craft, there is no room for compromise.

    The mission of a craftsman is not merely to shape the blade,

    but to carry skill and spirit from one hand to the next.

    If you can sense a warmth and quiet reverence behind the sharpness,

    then nothing could make me prouder.
