Brand Introduction:
⭕️ Babahamono: Founded in 1916, Babahamono has been rooted in Sakai, the birthplace of Japanese knife forging with over 600 years of history.
They adhere to the highest craftsmanship standards, producing top-tier knives. The collaboration between blacksmiths and sharpeners ensures excellence—blacksmiths forge the steel, while sharpeners refine the edges with great precision.
🔹 Forging: Blacksmiths integrate steel and soft iron under flames exceeding 1000°C, followed by multiple steps such as "heat welding," "forging," "core trimming," "preliminary forging," "coarse grinding," "back trimming," and "heat treatment."
🔹 Sharpening: Unlike blacksmiths who work with fire, sharpeners work with water. They use various whetstones and tools, refining the blade with precision while correcting minor distortions.
🔹 Handle Fitting: After marking the blade, craftsmen carefully attach the handle, ensuring perfect alignment. Finally, the blade is polished again for maximum sharpness.
Material Introduction:
⭕️ Aogami 1: Higher carbon content than Aogami 2, providing increased hardness and exceptional sharpness. Prone to rust, with an A++ difficulty level for sharpening—ideal for advanced users.

⭕️ Gyuto: A professional Japanese chef’s knife primarily used for cutting, slicing, and preparing beef, especially premium Wagyu. The long blade allows for clean and continuous slices, making it ideal for handling large cuts of meat.
