With a hardness rating of 63-64 on the Rockwell scale, Ginsan steel combines the best of traditional Japanese craftsmanship with stain-resistant properties. The beautiful mist-like patterns, known as Hongasumi, result from forging Ginsan with iron, creating knives of the highest quality that perform effortlessly in demanding environments.

Its slightly heavier and wider blade, along with a thicker spine, balances perfectly for chefs with smaller workspaces.

Care & Sharpening: To maintain its sharp edge, sharpen with only water whetstones. Hand wash and dry immediately after use, especially with acidic ingredients. Use solely on boneless fish.
