One that flew under the May Release radar is the Hatsukokoro Shinkiro by Nihei, an apprentice of Yoshikane. These feel as about authentic as a Japanese knife can get, whilst still carrying an extremely high level of finish. The kurouchi is matted and textured, the spine thickens up considerably towards the heel, the balance is perfect, and the sharpening is superb. We've fitted both the Quince and Ebony Blonde handles to these ones, and they're available over on the May Release page under Hatsukokoro. Definitely a high performer to treasure for many years.

The REN Sakimaru by @sakai_kikumori and @nakagawa_kajiya. Gorgeous ebony and turquoise handles pair up to a Blue 1 Single Bevel Blade by Nakagawa San, finished to the highest level. The REN series was born as a way for both the reseller (us) and the wholesaler (Sakai Kikumori) to take less profits each, maximising those of the blacksmith for the purpose of raising funds to support succession planning for the artisan (Nakagawa San). This ensures the legacy of craftsmanship will carry on through generations to come. Very proud to be part of this project ❤️

Two pieces left in stock! The @hado_knife Blue 1 Damascus series are one of the finest pieces of carbon steel coming from Sakai. Forged by none other than Yoshikazu Tanaka and finished by the HADO team, these pieces have about as good a finish as you can get. Perfectly rounded and polished spines and choils feature on each, which add another touch of class to these immaculate knives.

The monthly deal piece is flying out the door already! The drop for May was massive, so a big thankyou to everyone that made a purchase. The Tsunehisa White 2 Gyuto 210mm with Carbon Fibre is also 20% off for the month or until they're sold out, which I guess might be within a week or two at this rate 🥵

The @yu_kurosaki_ Senko ❤️ Highly polished, superb levels of fit and finish, SG2, a dream to use and perfectly balanced, these are one of our favourites in the May release. The Gyuto is sold out, but there's Petty, Nakiri and Bunka available 🙏

The May Release is here! 🎊 You'll find (left to right) Shigeki Tanaka SG2 Gyuto @sakai_kikumori X @nakagawa_kajiya Seiun Matsubara White 1 Hakata Tsunehisa Washiji SLD Yu Kurosaki Senko SG2 Anryu Petty And a heap more over on the release page! Enjoy ❤️

⚠️May Release Details!⚠️ We are go for this Sunday! 9am Perth time, Sunday 4th of May is the drop date and time, with a 24 hour preview window the same as last month that starts tomorrow, Saturday at 9am Perth time. And yes, this epic Matsubara White 1 Stainless Kuro Tsuchime Clad Hakata (the only one for sale in the whole world that we know of) will be there 🤤 See you for the droppppp 🎊

20% off for May 😎 Last month's deal with the same Bunka went absolutely nuts, so much so that our carbon Bunka handles are all gone, and we've decided to do the same deal with the 210mm Gyuto! Get the 210 White Steel Stainless Clad for a steal until they're sold out, pieces are far more limited than the Bunka so we're expecting this deal to last a couple weeks tops. 🙏

Released ahead of time! 🥵 The staple bang for buck Japanese knife, the Tsunehisa Ginsan Nashiji 210 Gyuto, has been released ahead of time. We'd initially planned to drop them for the May release, but we thought what the hell, they've been sold out for so long, let's make them available now 👌

Usually when we're quiet on socials for a few days, it's because we're cooking up something in background, and this time, it's the May Release 😎 It's going to be another big one, with a restock of some favourites, plus a stack of new stuff from Kurosaki, @blenheimforge, @sakai_kikumori, Hatsukokoro and a LOT more. If we get our Morihei Whetstone restock in time (sea freight amirite) then we'll throw them in there too. Stay tuned for the details of another banger of a release, with the 24 hour preview once again.

We're down to the final piece of the Yu Kurosaki Kokusen AS Gyuto 210mm on the website! This was one of our favourites from the April drop. Beautiful finish, slick handle combo, and brilliant cutting performance as always from one of Echizen's masters.
