Talking about Honyaki kitchen knives from Japan, we always think about the beautiful wave-pattern hamon. I have plenty of those waiting to be listed, but I want to introduce you this beautiful mizu-honyaki blade as my first Honyaki knife here at Knives and Stones: the magnificant "Moonnight Fuji mountain", which is named after its painting like hamon line featuring the famous Fuji-mountain. The K&S Special edition comes with an elegant K&S Ringed Gidgee triple spacer handle with blonde / cream buffalo horn handle and a matching black hardwood saya.

As far as I know, there are only two masters in Japan that can forge this type of hamon, and one of them is "Genkai".

This is one of the finest Japanese honyaki kitchen knives that you can possibly buy, I absoutely LOVE his work, and I want to share them with you.
