Post by Klotf »

I’ve not posted glamour shots previously but I was taking some shots for Instagram and they came out looking decent, so I thought I’d share here too

Great smith and great looking high end knife. Aren't these made from ZDP-189 for the core steel?

Yes it is! He loved it but eventually, when he sold it, asked me to make it less acute so that new users wouldn't destroy the edge. I had warned him that at that angle it might only last for a few cuts. He didn't care and just wanted to experience the edge.

On a visit to Tsukiji (many years ago, I visited the Nenohi store and shot a pic of several of the Hattori knives available. It was (is?) a beautiful store.

Did Ichiro Hattori forge for Nenohi?

It was my understanding that he did forge for Nenohi or that there was a relationship.
