    About Yoshikane Hamono 吉金刃物

    With 4th generation artisan Kazuomi Yamamoto on the throne, Yoshikina Hamono is a Japanese knife making company in Sanjo City, Niigata with over 100 years history. Founded in 1919 by Shimotajima. Yoshikane Hamono has been making knives by hand for generations in this tiny Japanese town well known for its metalware. To date, they have kept going in the traditional way with such focus and dedication that can only be found in this part of the world.

    Care:

    SLD is a semi-stainless steel. With general use, the knife is unlikely to develop patina or rust. However, as the chromium content of SLD is comparatively lower than stainless steels, patina or rust may develop under certain conditions such as prolonged exposure to water. The cladding of the knife is fully stainless therefore if patina or rust is to develop at all, it will be localized on the exposed core steel near the cutting edge. 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.

    Nice looking suit!
    Size: Small, Color: Black, Size: Small, Color: Black
    This suit fits my son perfectly & looks great! He is 5'9" & 145 lbs and I ordered a size Small. I was worried it would be big, but it looks & fits great! He'll be wearing it for his sister's wedding in the fall. We got a burnt orange vest, tie & pocket square to go with it. I can't speak to how wrinkle resistant it is since he hasn't worn it yet. My only complaint is that the breast pocket appears to be a fake pocket, so we cannot put a pocket square in it.

    A good First Communion suit
    Size: 6, Color: White, Size: 6, Color: White
    This suit looks and feels really nice even though it’s not 100% linen. My son is an average size 7 year old, but I got a size 6 so that the fit would be nice and snug and not loose and baggy. It was the right choice. Comes with a bow tie which is nice, a tie (which is very cheap and poorly made) and a pocket square.

    Very stylish💜💜
    Size: 6, Color: Light Blue, Size: 6, Color: Light Blue
    This little suit for boys is very stylish. I bought it for my grandson for a wedding occasion and it looked very nice. The fabric is not too thick so for the summer wedding it was great. I pick the blue color and it looked fantastic!
