When it comes to hand-forged Japanese knives, this series would be said to have an excellent price-quality ratio. The perfect combination of damask patterns and forging marks with the European style handle make this knife highly desirable among professional chefs and hobbyists.

Fish knife from Tsunehisa company is something completely new in the world of Japanese knives. The blade that is most reminiscent of the Sujihiki in its shape, the knife differs except for the length and the shape of the tip of the blade. The tip itself is designed to taper and taper evenly starting from the middle of the blade.
The design is designed in such a way that the knife could more easily pass between tiny and large bones without problems when filleting fish meat.

The blade is made of VG10 steel that is coated with multiple layers of damascus and tsuchime forging marks. VG-10 is one of the most popular and highly regarded Japanese stainless steels for making kitchen knives. It has strong corrosion resistance and can provide very good sharpness. In Japanese, ``tsuchime'' means ``nailed'' and you'll see actual hammer marks on the blade. This finish does two things: it gives the knife a look reminiscent of the hand-crafting techniques of ancient Japan, and it creates tiny air pockets that prevent an absolute vacuum from forming, so particularly starchy foods like potatoes can't stick to the knife.

The handle of the knife is made in European style, from stabilized wood secured with three steel rivets and secured with a stainless steel collar that is welded where the handle and blade meet.

After use, wash the knife by hand with lukewarm water and dry it.
Store the knife in a safe place where it will not collide with other utensils.
