ABOUT TAMAHAGANE Tamahagane knives are manufactured by Kataoka and Company in Niigata, Japan. The word tamahagane means precious steel. Historically, the word tamahagane has been known as a particular, very pure and high-quality steel produced using traditional Japanese techniques. Today, Kataoka uses Tamahagane as the brand name for the exceptional knives it makes from similar quality steels produced using modern techniques. With their unsurpassed sharpness and edge retention, these knives are definitely precious steel. SNM Series Features: Tamahagane guarantees the strength of the blade, as well as long preservation of the initial sharpening. The handle of a well-designed ergonomic shape is made of mikarta, a modern polymeric material whose pattern resembles wood. The knife is not just functional, it attracts the eye with its well-designed form, strength, harmony of the blade and handle. The knife from the Tamahagane SNM series is 3 layers of steel: the middle of the blade is made of hard, but fragile VG5 steel, which is supplemented with 2 layers of mild steel, making the blade very strong, hard, but at the same time retains its flexibility and does not lend itself to distortion and kinks. The knife is fully balanced and very easy to use in any kitchen.
