Arguably the most stunning paring knife ever made
Nashiji is a traditional knife finish, inspired by the Japanese pear skin. Each knife is hand forged and hammered using an ancient technique to achieve this look. Every knife is different, as it is impossible to many an identical pattern on purpose.
The core steel is blue paper steel (Aogami 2). This refers to the old system of classifying steel in Japan, not the color of the steel. It is similar to the older white paper steel (Shirogami) but with the additions of tungsten and chromium. This resulted in harder steel, better edge retention, and smaller brittleness.
The handles are made of natural chestnut wood, and they are also shaped by hand using sandpaper. Seamless handling in various positions makes this knife a great fit for any hand.
The knives are forged, sharpened, tested, and packed individually, at Tadafusa Open Factory, in Sanjo, Niigata.
