Shizu Hamono

Shizu Hamono is a family company founded in 1980, continuing the rich tradition of knife-making in the city of Seki in the Gifu prefecture of Japan. Proud of its heritage, it carries a name inspired by the master craftsman Saburo Sizu from the Edo period. At Shizu, they are committed to producing knives that meet the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship. Their original series Yuri, Yamato, and Morinoki are designed with an emphasis on ease of use and comfort in work. They put great effort into production and believe that their knives help people enjoy cooking to the fullest.

Material

The blade is made from DSR1k6 stainless steel, and the handle is made from Zelkova wood - Japanese elm. 

Note: The cutter is supplied in an original cardboard box. 

Maintenance

Avoid using a dishwasher, which can damage the blade and wooden handle. Wash by hand with gentle detergent and dry well after use. Store in a dry place to prevent steel oxidation.
The blade is made of stainless steel and therefore requires less care. Nevertheless, it's important to keep the blade clean and dry after use. To restore its appearance, the blade and handle can be coated with oil – preferably linseed or camellia oil.
