Syousin represents the best possible workmanship. To qualify for the Syousin badge, both the bladesmith and sharpener have to be highly regarded masters. For this particular Syousin Sakura, the bladesimth is Master. Suogo Yamatuka and the sharpener is Master. Norikatsu Nishimura. Both of them are among the elite group (currently less than 30) of the Dentou Kougeishi (Traditional Craftsman). Basically, you know that you are getting a blade that comes with a guaranteed workmanship. The blade is hand sharpened by Nishimura san back in Sakai using natural stone, and thanks to the extremely thinness behind the edge, you could expect the OOTB edge is quite pleasant to use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eYou can read more about the Dentou Kougeishi \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/brand.sen-shu.com\/sakai_utihamono\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ehere \u003c\/a\u003e(Japanese).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eAbout the F\u0026amp;F\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eUsually, knives produced in Sakai, even by the best guys, do not automatically mean the best fit and finish that we, the KKFers, pay particular attention. For instance, the spine and choil are likely not rounded nor polished. The handle is sometimes installed rather badly. Apart from the QC problem, is perhaps due to that the Japanese chefs traditionally do not care too much about these aspects. For Syousin, we specifically asked for the top F\u0026amp;F. For example, spine and choil are rounded and polished in all Syousin knives. In fact the choil of the Sakura has some of the best work that I have seen in Sakai knives.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eAbout the handle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eI also want to take time to talk about the handle that comes with the Sakura. As a keen woodworker, I am often quite picky about the detail of the handle, such as the wood, the finish, the straightness after installation. I particular dislike the through mortise and tenon joint employed by the traditional Japanese WA handles (uneven tenon), and the burn in process can sometimes ruin the knife entry point to the handle (badly burnt). I much prefer the custom handles that we often seen here in KKF made by our own hobbyists and pro craftsmen. I wanted something like those. As a result, after closely working with a handle manufacturer that are willing to listen and accommodate our requests for the past few months, I am proud to offer you the K\u0026amp;S semi-custom handles.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eWhy I call it \"Semi-custom\"?

So while I may not have a unique handle for each individual knives, I do offer these handles to you, which are normally only seen in ultra high-end Japanese kitchen knives, and I offer them with K\u0026amp;S \/ Syousin quality: blind mortise and tenon construction ensures the knife entry to the handle is a neat slot;

No matter what type of steel or profile I ask him to do, he will always handle it with ease. Blue Frost (Blue 1 Mizu-Honyaki) and White Fame (White 1 Mizu-Honyaki) are both forged by Togashi-san. Togashi-san runs a small workshop. Strictly speaking I can’t really call it small, since three sons and a couple apprentices are also working for him there (\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.city.sakai.lg.jp\/naka\/jichikai\/chiikijoho\/h27\/utihamonodesi.html\"\u003esource\u003c\/a\u003e), hence the Togashi-hamono should probably be called a big workshop. His workshop can handle pretty much everything in house: forging, heat-treating and even sharpening. I still remember the first time I went into his workshop, the very first thing that caught my sight was the huge number of knife profile templates, there are probably a hundred of them, each with their manufacturer, model and length written, and there are a lot of highly regarded brands amongst them (we probably all know the Suisin Densho line is one of many).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAnother very interesting find at his workshop is the forge that is specifically designed for those super long tuna knives. By long, I mean really LONG! I handled a couple of them that is taller than me (requires two persons to operate)! I have no idea how difficult to forge one of these extra long blades but think a­­­­bout the required sharpness, straightness and toughness; I am sure it can only be done by someone really knows his stuff.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTogashi-san started knife forging back in 1967 and was awarded the prestigious Dento-Kogeshi in 1996, which is quite early considering he is just in his 60s. With the older generation of master either retired or approaching retirement, Togashi-san is one of those very few masters in Sakai that are able to foget top quality blades with relative higher quantity. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHirosugu Tosa (Dento-Kogeshi)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHirosugu Tosa started his career in 1967 and was honored with Dento-Kogeshi in 1990, he is the main sharpener of the more premium blades at Aoki Hamono.

What I am particularly impressed by how open-minded he is. I have encountered many craftsmen, while very skillfully, has a hard time listen to what I really want, and are slow to make minor adjustments on the details that we ask for, particular on the fit and finish side of things. It is understandable because the Japanese market is not too fussed about the details we care for, which means often the sharpeners don’t understand the need of paying extra attention on the F\u0026amp;F. This was never an issue for Tosa-san. No matter how minor the details are, the message always gets through. For example, we often have many custom shapes (diamond shaped usuba honyaki is just one of many) and polishing requirements (a batch of knives would have full mirror, half mirror, different kanji engraving); he always gets the job done without any error.

Being a stainless steel, together with extreme sharpness, high edge retention and impact resistance, the SG2 is a perfect cutlery steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hatsukokoro’s design is dynamic and vibrant. Through its highly polished surface, It is almost impossible to really tell the “layers” through the strikingly beautiful yet convoluted pattern.
