Nigara Hamono manufactures in the Japanese city of Hirosaki. The Nigara family has been producing a variety of tools, with a focus on kitchen knives, since the 17th century. This series uses the popular carbon steel Aogami#2, forged together with a beautiful damascus cladding. The handle is octagonal and made from stabilized birch with a white spacer.
NOTE: This knife series has extremely thin edges made of very hard steel. They are therefore very susceptible to stress. Be extra careful when cutting so that the edge does not encounter too much resistance and get damaged. The blade needs to be wiped dry after use to prevent rust. Aogami#2 is not stainless.
