    Description

    Yoshida Hamono Aogami #2 Funkai Santoku Magnolia Knife

    Key Advantages

    • True Japanese Craft — Forged in Japan by the heritage bladesmiths of Yoshida Hamono, marrying centuries of skill with modern consistency.

    • Aogami #2 Blue Steel Core (62–64 HRC) — Ultra-fine carbon steel takes a razor edge and holds it, so your mirepoix stays uniform from first carrot to last.

    • Funkai Santoku Hybrid Profile – 165 mm / 6.5″ — A subtle belly curve meets a slightly thicker heel for more power on the push cut — great when a full-size gyuto is overkill, and a petty just won’t cut it.

    • Lightweight & Nimble — Designed for speed and control across meat, fish, and vegetables—the “do-it-all” blade rooted in fishermen’s onboard prep traditions.

    • 3-Year Manufacturer Warranty — Premium craftsmanship protected for the long run.

    Specifications

    • Blade length: 165 mm / 6.3″

    • Steel: Aogami #2 high-carbon core, stainless clad for easier upkeep

    • Hardness: 62–64 HRC

    • Bevel: Double 50/50 — ambidextrous edge

    • Magnolia Wood Handle — Traditional Grip, Modern Flow: Light, balanced, and good-looking in that quiet “don’t mess with me” way. Made from Japanese Magnolia, it feels right at home in hardworking hands.

    • Weight: ~170 g — balanced for speed without sacrificing heft

    Who It’s For

    • Dads and cooks who want one knife that handles meat, veg, and fish without breaking stride
    • Pros on the line who need tight control and fast cleanup in busy kitchens
    • Anyone who appreciates Japanese heritage steel and gear that works as hard as they do

    Care & Use

    1. Hand-wash promptly, wipe dry.

    2. Store in a saya, magnetic strip, or wooden block to protect the edge.

    3. Refresh on a 1,000/6,000-grit whetstone; strop to mirror polish.

    Fuss-free. Sharp as hell. A knife that shows up and does its job — just like you.
