Description & specifications
5th & 6th generation blacksmiths, Shoujirou Ishiduka Youichirou & Shoujiro Ishizuka are behind the production at the small company, Shojiro Hasami Hamono.
Known for their hand-forged tailor's shears and other tools such as this small kiridashi.
A kiridashi is a traditional Japanese "craft knife" used for precision work in materials such as leather or wood, but nowadays, knife enthusiasts like us use them, among other things, to test new natural stones to see what kind of polish the stone provides, for example, if one wants to create a kasumi finish.
A core of Shirogami 2 & wrought iron cladding.
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.
