Honyaki, meaning "true forged," represents the pinnacle of traditional Japanese knife making, embodying the ancient art of swordsmithing. Our master craftsmen, with techniques handed down through generations, forge these knives from a single piece of high carbon steel, requiring extraordinary skill to endure temperatures reaching thousands of degrees within a blazing furnace.

Each Yoshihiro Honyaki knife is handcrafted with unparalleled expertise by artisans, some with over 50 years of experience, following the same methods used in creating ancient Japanese swords. Forged from White Steel #2 with an exceptional HRC of 65, the blade is heated to extreme temperatures, quenched in cool water for hardness, and polished to a brilliant mirror finish. The result is a knife of the highest caliber, blending aesthetic beauty with superior performance.

The Sakimaru Takobiki is a long slicing knife traditionally designed to create paper-thin slices of sashimi, with its sharp, rounded tip ideal for cutting long tentacles. The thin, elegant blade is crafted to slice through ingredients in long, uninterrupted strokes, preserving their freshness and integrity. Thinner than a Yanagi, the Takobiki is a unique tool for preparing delicate dishes and is especially prized for its precision in cutting perfect sushi rolls. Its rounded tip can be angled along the cutting board for clean slices, elevating even the simplest of tasks with a handcrafted knife that is both functional and exquisite.
