It is so fine that can sharpening using this whetstone can even remove the scratches from a medium stone.

Synthetic resins such as phenol and epoxy are hardened by baking at a relatively low temperature of around 200℃.

Sono passati 600 anni dalla nascita dell'arte della spada nella regione giapponese di Sakai. La Sakai Ichimonji Mitsuhide e i suoi artigiani continuano a costruire su questa eredità producendo le migliori lame del Giappone.
È qui che è nata la cultura di completare un piatto di sashimi "tagliando e basta" e la cultura di esprimere l'affilatura come "gusto".
Da 70 anni colleghiamo lo spirito degli artigiani di Sakai con la passione degli chef nel quartiere dello shopping di attrezzature da cucina di Osaka, noto come la cucina del Giappone.
Siamo molto felici che i nostri coltelli possano essere utilizzati da persone di tutto il mondo.
