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 the 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 learned traditional blade making in Fukui, started making knives with "Shigeki saku" and “Hideyuki saku” mark.

Care:

Ginsan (Gin3 or Silver #3) is stainless carbon steel, with 14% added Chromium. Retaining the character of Japanese carbon steel, with a similar hardness of Shirogami #2, Ginsan is stainless. Its edge retention is only slightly inferior to Shirogami #2, but the fact that it combines ease of sharpening, carbon steel character as well being stainless makes it a great choice for those who wish to have a Japanese carbon steel knife that is easy to maintain.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethylene 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.

Great Product!
Size: 2 Pound (Pack of 1)
My senior Aussie has been eating this brand’s sliced sweet potatoes for some time. However, as she aged she began to have difficulty with a whole slice getting stuck in her teeth and throat. So, I started cutting them in fourths, which helped. Then I discovered the French fried shapes. This is her first bag and already I know this is best for her at this stage of life. I expect we will be buying many more bags. We highly recommend!

Small Skices
Size: 14 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The sweet potatoes are my dog!s favorite treat.They smell delicious and she loves chewing them. I always order the full slices because she is a standard Golden Doodle weighing 70 lbs. The slices are usually large. This last batch was very disappointing. The slices were much smaller than usual. I’m concerned about the quality control and hope it doesn’t happen again.
