Tsunehisa Shirogami Santoku

Description

Tsunehisa Hamono is located in Tosa Japan. It is a mid-sized factory that puts out high quality Japanese knives and a consumer friendly price range. According to the website: The TSUNEHISA brand is committed to providing knives with both functionality and design, aiming to be cherished and used for a long time in our customers' homes. While inheriting traditional Japanese forging techniques, we also incorporate the latest materials and technologies to meet the needs of the modern era. Our experienced staff carefully inspects each knife under strict quality control to deliver products that our customers can use with confidence. Shibata-san is such a lovely individual. His business acumen is only one of his many strengths. I was grateful that he took the time to meet with me while I visited his shop. He even sharpened my project knife when I took it out to show him and ask him about it. I believe he gets a lot of his inspiration for his knife shapes from his own cooking experiences.
