Japanese kitchen knife santoku by Gihei Hamono. Blade is made of Aogami 2 steel with iron clad. Aogami #2 by Hitachi sometimes called Blue Paper #2 since the steel is wrapped in blue paper. It has a very good edge sharpness and excellent edge retention. This Gihei Hamono santoku has a handle of baked magnolia. Never wash any Japanese knife in a dishwasher. This knife has a thin blade and should not be used on hard items such as bones or frozen foods.
Gihei Hamono is located in Sanjo, Niigata and is run by Atsushi and Takashi Hosokawa. Gihei hamono not only works in traditional Hitachi steels but also works with newer high performance steels such as HAP40 and SLD tool steels. Gihei are always praised for their excellent heat treatment and ability to hold and edge. 50/50 ground with exposed wide bevel, thin at the edge but low enough grind to provide very nice food release.
