They have recently celebrated their 100-year anniversary, founded in 1919. Hokiyama Hamono is known for their quality as they follow the tradition of hand-made blades that has been around for over 800 years. They retain the handiwork and traditional craftsmanship that is passed down from generation to generation while striving for the ever-new knowledge and innovation. Despite the fact that they make knives according to the traditional methods, they follow the modern technological guidelines in the field of metallurgy, material processing and innovations in production processes. Hokiyama, in their own words, is a fusion of tradition (土佐 一), innovation (無限) and practicality (左近).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrand: Ittetsu\u003cbr\u003eMaker: Hokiyama\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: Tosa, Japan\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Shirogami #1\/stainless clad\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eEstimated HRC of 64-65\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wenge\/Walnut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eHeel Height: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e44mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 133\u003c\/span\u003eg, \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 175\u003c\/span\u003emm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Yo (Western)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarbon steel knives require immediate cleaning and thorough drying after each use to prevent rust. Hand-wash with warm soapy water, never use a dishwasher, and regularly apply food-safe mineral oil or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tacomaknife.com\/products\/camellia-oil-spray-245ml?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=camelia\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\" title=\"Camelia Oil\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ecamellia oil\u003c\/a\u003e to the blade to protect it.
