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:
⭕️ White Steel #2: Derived from Yellow Steel with reduced impurities, White Steel #2 offers a refined cutting performance. This high-purity steel is easy to sharpen, retains its sharpness well, and has a hardness of approximately 62-63 HRC. However, it is prone to rust and requires proper maintenance. It is a favorite among professional chefs for its superior cutting ability.
Knife Model Introduction:
⭕️ Gyuto: Also known as a "Chef’s Knife," the Gyuto is a professional Japanese kitchen knife primarily used for slicing, chopping, and trimming meat, especially high-grade Wagyu beef. Its long blade allows for clean and continuous slicing, making it ideal for processing large cuts of meat.
The Gyuto's blade design enhances precision cutting, preserving the integrity and aesthetics of the meat. It is widely appreciated not only by professional chefs but also by home cooking enthusiasts who require detailed and accurate meat preparation. The handle and blade materials vary, with common options including stainless steel and high-carbon steel, while handles may be crafted from wood or composite materials for a comfortable and stable grip.
