A brand by Aoki Hamono Co., Ltd. in Japan, carrying forward over 600 years of Sakai forged cutlery craftsmanship.

☆【 Maintenance Precautions 】
Although stainless steel offers good corrosion resistance, it may still rust under humid, high-salt, or damaged conditions. It is recommended to keep it dry and clean it regularly.
☆【 Professional After-Sales Maintenance 】
In-store professional knife sharpening services are available to ensure your cherished knife stays in peak condition.
▸ Avoid extreme hard objects: Strictly refrain from chopping frozen ingredients or hard bones to prevent damage to the blade structure, chipping, or nicking.
▸ Do not machine wash or dry: Do not use dishwashers or dish dryers, as high temperatures and harsh detergents will damage the knife body and handle.
▸ Standard cleaning process: After use, hand-wash with warm water, dry thoroughly immediately with a dry cloth or soft towel, and store in a ventilated, dry place.
❁【 Return and Exchange Standards Regarding Appearance & Manufacturing Marks 】
The high-end kitchen knives sold in our store are 100% genuine original products. As the manufacturing process involves manual grinding, hand-sharpening, and sheath fit testing, slight micro-scratches on the blade surface are a "normal state from the factory" and not quality defects. We strictly inspect all items before shipment. Perfectionists, please consider carefully before placing an order.
❁【 Friendly Reminder 】
All product photos are taken from actual items. However, due to shooting light, angles, or different brand monitor settings, slight color variations between the photos and the actual product may exist. Buyers who are extremely sensitive to color differences, please consider carefully before placing an order. Product color is subject to the actual item received.
