Sale price€356,95 EUR

Mutsumi Hinoura is the son of one of the most famous blacksmiths in Japan, Tsukasa Hinoura. He lives in the town of Sanjo, which is located in the Niigata area in northwestern Japan. This area is known for its heavier knives, with a lot of taper, which can also be seen on the Ajikataya series here from Mutsumi.

Mutsumi is still young compared to many other renowned blacksmiths. So we look forward to seeing how he develops over the coming years. Based on the work we have seen from him so far, it can only be good!

Knives from this series are made of shirogami 2 with soft iron. This makes them incredibly easy to sharpen, and can be very sharp. With their good taper and thinness behind the edge, they also cut like a dream.
