He worked as a sharpener for the renowned blacksmith Shiro Kamo for several years, but for the past 3 years, he has been working independently, and his knives have gained much appreciation worldwide. Since he uses powder steel in his knives, the need for hot forging is not critical. It is a very stable steel with a well-distributed grain that simply does not need to be hot-forged with a power hammer. For this reason, he enlists the help of Takefu Tokushu Steel, which laser-cuts the blade shape and heat-treats the steel.

All knives are hot-forged by hand and no blade leaves Hinoura's hands before it is razor-sharp and forged to perfection. The Ajikataya series uses Shirogami #2 carbon steel, hardened to 63 HRC. It is a very hard carbon steel that takes a razor-sharp edge. Hinoura's knives are incredibly popular and delivery times are very long.

The hard edge will therefore flex as far as it can, but if the load becomes too great, the edge will chip or part of the tip will break off.
