Niagara Hamono
A renowned Japanese knife brand, known for creating knives with a combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern sharpness .
Each knife from Nigara Hamono is the result of years of experience and close collaboration between experienced blacksmiths who understand how to combine the best of both materials and forging techniques.
With a focus on durability, sharpness and functionality, the knives from Nigara Hamono have become sought after by both professional chefs and collectors worldwide.
Nigara Hamono is known for their hand-forged knives , which often use Aogami (Blue Steel) or Shirogami (White Steel) as the main steel in the blade. This gives the knives exceptional sharpness and long-lasting durability. The steels are forged using the san-mai technique , where a harder core of steel is surrounded by a softer steel, providing an ideal balance between sharpness and strength.
