Tomida Hamono Bread Knife 270mm

Japanese AUS-10 steel is a high-quality stainless steel renowned for its balance of toughness and durability while still holding a good edge. It is on the softer side of most Japanese Stainless Steels, slightly softer than VG10 or Ginsan. Enriched with vanadium, it achieves a superior durability, making it ideal for crafting durable, sharp knives that withstand rigorous use.

Store it in a dry environment using magnetic strips, knife rolls, or sayas. Avoid hitting hard or frozen objects and twisting the blade while cutting. These knives are not dishwasher safe. Clean with hot water and a soft cloth, and dry immediately after use to prevent rust spots on the high carbon steel. For more information please read the blog below.
