Description
The prestigious "Yamawaki Hamono" in Sakai City, Osaka, Japan presents the "Hon-Kasumi" series, utilizing White #2 steel (HRC 62-63) as the core, forged with double layers. The blade is meticulously hand-polished with traditional Hon-Kasumi to exhibit the delicate hazy and misty effect.
White #2 steel offers exceptional sharpness and the ability to create a very sharp and resilient edge. Its easy sharpening feature makes this series ideal for professionals who prefer to maintain an incredibly sharp blade.
The base of the blade is thicker, while the tip is thin and sharp, allowing for smooth dismantling and cutting of various fish, poultry, and meat.
The lower quarter of the blade can be used for chopping, pounding ingredients, or breaking bones, while the upper sixth is for delicate work, primarily used for filleting fish and separating various parts of ingredients.
Additionally, the design of the blade allows for efficient separation of fish meat from bones when breaking down fish, minimizing residue on the bones.
