Sakai Kikumori has been making knives since 1926, and since then they have become known as a top brand from Sakai. They work together with some incredibly skilled blacksmiths and grinders who together create some fantastic products.

The Choyo series is forged by the legendary Yoshikazu Tanaka, and is sharpened by the equally renowned sharpener, Morihiro. An iconic pair that each brings something very special to the field. An incredibly good hardening on the blade from the experienced blacksmith, and a fantastic sharpening work from Morihiro-san. Morihiro-san makes the blade stand out with a fantastic mirror polish on the top of the blade, and further down starts his characteristic Wide-bevel grind.

It is built in 3 layers. Tanaka-san's blue #1 in the core, which he is known to be the absolute best at hardening, and soft iron around it.

The knife is a 240mm chef's knife, and functions as a perfect all-around knife for any kitchen. The knife is used for meat, fish and vegetables.
