We hosted a special event on Thursday the 12th with one of our favourite blacksmiths; Mutsumi Hinoura. We had about 20 one of a kind blades by his making available that day and Hinoura-San would personally engrave each blade when sold.
Big thanks to everyone who stopped by! These custom blades are now available online, you can find them below.
The Hitohira Hinode and Ajikataya series are forged by Sanjo based blacksmith Mutsumi Hinoura. He is the 4th generation blacksmith in the Hinoura family and trained under his father, the highly esteemed master blacksmith Tsukasa Hinoura. He runs a beautifully clean and organized workshop. The blades feature a tsuchime, nashiji or smooth kurouchi finish as is characteristic for Sanjo style knives. His kurouchi is very long lasting and greatly reduces oxidation on the carbon steel blades. The spine is somewhat thick, but tapers down to a very thin tip and similarly towards the edge.
The edge retention is one of the best of the white twos we’ve come across. This is not only because of the steel quality but for a good part because of the grind. These knives are trademarked by their narrow wide bevel grind with amazing consistency. With this flat geometry it is also a treat to thin and polish on stones.
These knives have a steady feel to them, they’re strong but thin behind the edge for super clean and precise cuts. We carry multiple knives by Hinoura San, a variety of shapes and finishes. Restocks expected every 5-6 months.
