With a relatively flat edge and a gently rounded tip, it excels at push-cutting and precise chopping. At 180mm, it offers a little more length and versatility while remaining compact and easy to control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"426\" data-end=\"429\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"431\" data-end=\"702\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"431\" data-end=\"463\"\u003eNashiji – “Pear Skin” Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"463\" data-end=\"466\"\u003eNashiji translates to “pear skin,” describing the softly textured, matte finish on the upper portion of the blade. This subtle texture helps reduce food sticking during prep while giving the knife a quietly refined, workhorse aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"704\" data-end=\"707\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"709\" data-end=\"1083\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"709\" data-end=\"741\"\u003eOhishi – Sanjo Craftsmanship\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"741\" data-end=\"744\"\u003eOhishi knives are produced in Sanjo, Niigata — a region known for practical, performance-focused blades. Typically featuring a slightly thicker spine with a strong distal taper, they offer a reassuring balance of durability and cutting performance. Built for everyday use, they prioritise consistency, reliability, and ease of maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1085\" data-end=\"1088\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1090\" data-end=\"1386\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1090\" data-end=\"1117\"\u003eGinsan (Silver 3) Steel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1117\" data-end=\"1120\"\u003eGinsan is a high-quality stainless steel designed to behave like a traditional carbon steel. It takes a very fine edge, sharpens cleanly, and offers excellent corrosion resistance — ideal for those who want sharpness without the added maintenance of reactive steels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1388\" data-end=\"1391\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1393\" data-end=\"1685\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1393\" data-end=\"1416\"\u003ePakkawood Yo-Handle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1416\" data-end=\"1419\"\u003eThe western-style (yo) handle is shaped for comfort and familiarity, secured with rivets and designed for balance in hand.

Hand wash, dry after use, and avoid the dishwasher.
