Nagakawa-san apprenticed with the legendary master blacksmith Kenichi Shiraki who created the Shiraki Hamono brand, until becoming its leader when Shiraki-san retired. In 2005 Nakagawa-san changed the brand name to Nakagawa Hamono.
The blade we offer you here is a sakimaru yanagiba, a single-bevel blade, intended mainly for cutting fish and occasionally it can also be used for pieces of boneless meat.
Forged in Aogami #1 steel (Japanese blue steel) with a damask iron coating with a very subtle and elegant pattern.
Aogami #1 steel has a hardness of approximately 63 HRC which allows it to have an extremely sharp and polished edge, ideal for cutting raw proteins, and with remarkable edge retention.
