Hand-crafted using R2/SG2 high-speed powder steel, this Santoku is beautifully grinded with superb thinness behind-the-edge supported by the 62-63 HRC hardness. Being a guru of steel manipulation and expert on steel construction, Nigara Hamono created a unique Tsuchime pattern that is reminiscent of industrial steel beam. The finish of the jigane is truly unique on this knife - while the tsuchime patterns have an almost matt nashiji-like texture, giving this knife a sophisticated accent. As with all Nigara knives, the fit and finish of this knife are second to none. The blade is paired with a western-styled handle made of polished acrylic in Snow White pattern, with mosaic pins as decoration. Only One Available.

About Nigara Hamono 二唐刃物

With 350 years of history, starting from making swords for Tsugaru clan in the early Edo period, Nigara Hamono has passed down know-how and skills for eight generations. Its 5th generation blacksmith Kunitoshi Nigara was a legendary sword maker, earning a long list of accolades, honorary titles, and knighthood. The current (8th) generation blacksmith — Tsuyoshi Yoshizawa is supported by his father Toshiju Yoshizawa who has a keen interest in art and music. Nigara’s famous Anmon design is the result of Toshiju’s love for Andy Warhol’s artworks. The family business’ expansion into construction steelworks has given Nigara unmatched access to in-house know-how when it comes to advanced finishing. All these set Nigara apart as one of the most special knife makers in Japan.

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 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.

Cushiony and lightweight sneakers!
Size: 5.5 Toddler, Color: Gold/Rainbow, Size: 5.5 Toddler, Color: Gold/Rainbow
The shoes are excellent quality! I was worried that the soles would be heavy since they are a little thicker than other toddler shoes, but this is not the case. The shoes are lightweight and run true to size. They were a little hard to put on the first two times and I thought, "Oh no, they must be too narrow." However, after my toddler wore these for a few hours each time, they stretched out and I checked her feet and did not notice any signs of discomfort, such as impressions on her feet from the shoes and/or redness. Toddler walked "normal" and even ran in these. The style is supercute (gotta love the subtle sparkles) and athletic and they appear to give her a lot of support. I can't speak to durability as she has only worn them for a few weeks but so far, they held up well and I have no issues with the velcro. I am glad they softened and stretched out after a short time of wear and they have plenty of cushion! Overall, these are great and no complaints here. I highly recommend!

Great looks for any outfit choice
Size: 12 Toddler, Color: Black/Grey
I was proud to see my first grader run their first mile on these shoes. The look and color is great for either a boy or a girl, and matches with either neutral colored or bright outfits. My kiddo found it easy to put on and adjust snuggly, so it’s nice having a shoe that doesn’t require an adult to calibrate and tighten just right (like my kids soccer cleats!). This is several steps past your cheap sneaker and I can tell it will comfortably get many more miles from my kid.

A good choice
Size: 4 Toddler, Color: Black/Grey
This is a great pair of shoes with excellent durability and color. It’s a classy little shoe that looks good and had a good fit. That was true to it sizing. It’s an excellent value for the money and they held up well throughout testing. No flaws were found in any of the materials and workmanship was phenomenal. If I could give it more than five stars I would.
