Ginsanko represents a revolutionary blend of traditional knife-making techniques and modern metallurgy. This innovative steel merges high-carbon components with stain-resistant metallic elements, achieving a remarkable Rockwell hardness of 62-63. The result is a unique combination of the time-honored attributes of traditional Japanese high-carbon knives and the durability of stainless steel. The term Hongasumi, meaning "true mist," describes the beautiful, mist-like patterns formed on the blade when Ginsanko (HRC 62-63) is forged with iron. Each knife is meticulously crafted by our master artisans, ensuring traditional Japanese craftsmanship and the highest quality, providing peace of mind in bustling kitchen environments.
