Description & specifications

HADO Knives is a relatively new player in the game, based in the capital of the knife mecca, Sakai, Japan. They have truly made their mark on the market with their incredibly well-made and coveted products.

This knife is made with the stainless powder steel, SG2 in the core & a stainless cladding. They get the "raw" blade from Takefu Knife Village, and it is then sharpened, polished and finished at Hado's workshop in Sakai.

The grind is truly well executed. It is very thin behind the edge and of course cuts fantastically. The Fit&Finish is as we know from Hado - in other words, superb. Polished spine and choil, beautiful polishing and a stunning tsuchime finish on top of the blade.

Maintenance & use

Please note that both the blade and handle can be seriously damaged and broken if the knife is washed in a dishwasher – this also applies to stainless steel and wooden handles.
