About Tanaka Kazuyuki Hamono 田中一之刃物

Tanaka's blade making started in the late Meiji era in 1904, by making sickles during the Russo-Japanese War. In 1946, Tanaka workshop started focusing more on kitchen knives, and in year 2000 with the 3rd generation Kazuyuki Takana (田中 一之) on the throne, the family business changed its name to "Tanaka Kazuyuki Hamono" and has been using this name since. Kazuyuki's son - 4th generation blacksmith Shigeki Tanaka (田中 誠貴) - started making blades with his father in 1994. The father and son team, having learnt traditional blade making in Fukui, started making knives with "Shigeki saku" and “Hideyuki saku” mark.

Care:

Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

Not durable, cheaply made for big guys 6’4 235lbs
Color: Gray Navy, Size: 13-16, Color: Gray Navy, Size: 13-16
Don’t recommend for men. Boys maybe but not men. I wore them twice for about 3 hrs before bed. Went to put in the 3rd time and they ripped. It’s literally a small sheet of Sherpa from the shoe and plastic wrap. I also got the bigger size and they still don’t fit right. I bought these right before my trip upstate during the holidays, because I live in Florida. I paid $20+ for these, hoping they would be good. 1/10 recommend

Size 13 (not 13-16)
Color: Gray Navy, Size: 13-16
I have a size 13 foot and these Winter Socks/Slippers just barely cover the length of my foot, so if you are over size 13 these will be too small_ they are well made and insulated_ they look nice, just like the pic, and I can go from my house to the my car in the snow without the bottoms getting wet_ they are cozy without my feet getting hot_ just wish they were a half inch longer on the foot size to be a more perfect size 13_ they feel about 12-1/2

Awesome but loses shape
Color: Long Black, Size: 10-13
This is comfy and keeps my feet warm but definitely doesn't hold shape good to wear indoors but don't think about walking long distances.
