Accessories Information
The Knife Maintenance Bundle was designed to offer incredible value for money with a 1000/3000 grit whetstone with base, guide clip and nagura stone for achieving sharp edges on your knives, and a 10" black ceramic steel honing rod to maintain these edges between sharpening.
- Best paired with a lapping stone/plate for flatting between use
- Entry level stone
- Guide Clip Use - Consider applying masking tape to the knife to reduce potential risk of scratching.
The high-grit ceramic honing rod is an essential tool for maintaining the sharpness of your Japanese knives.
With correct use, it can double your period between sharpening, allowing for easy maintenance of your sharp whetstone edges.
A high grade ceramic is wrapped around a rubber shock resistant core, protecting the ceramic from breaking if dropped.
Food-safe Camellia Oil is the most natural way to ensure carbon steel knives do not rust during storage. Camellia is a very light oil, and when applied creates a barrier between your knife and moisture which may rust or damage your blade. It does not affect glue or finishes on your knives.

Knife Information
1894- Mr. Tasaburo Shigematsu, a hardware wholesaler, introduced a new pocket knife with its blade and sheath folded by installing a small handle “Chikiri (tail)” on the blade, while inspired by the knife he brought back from Kagoshima.
He named it “Higonokami Knife” because many of his customers were in Kumamoto area (formally Higo country), which turned out to dramatically increase his sales. The blades have gradually changed their shapes. Unlike single-edged knives, the double-edged blades (V-shaped cross section) were in those days considered common. The earlier blades had a sharper tip (shape of a bamboo leaf), but now they have square shapes. The sheaths had a vertically folding style and a cross folding style, now the vertical one has to be custom made.
In 1911, at the First Kobe Export Articles Competitive Exhibition, Crown Prince (later Emperor Taisho) liked Higonokami on display very much and bought one, which is said to have helped its fame further spread.
The Higonikami is a fantastic traditional utility knife at a low cost.

Knife Information
Who doesn't want a whale knife? Hand-forged carbon steel with soft iron clad. A perfect utility/chopper with great edge retention.
STEEL BREAKDOWN – Blue Steel is a traditional high-carbon steel made by Hitachi Metals in Japan. It is the favourite steel of many knife makers and chefs across the world for its fantastic edge holding ability, toughness, and ease of sharpening. It contains few stainless elements, and as such will develop a patina, and develop rust spots if left wet after use. It requires a little more care and maintenance than something like VG-10 (Stainless Steel), so consider this when purchasing a Blue Steel knife as your first Japanese knife.

Asahi have been manufacturing synthetic cutting boards for Japanese knives for over 50 years. Over this span of time they have refined their products and now offer some of the best quality cutting boards in the world.
There are some great benefits to using a synthetic board:
- They are Antibacterial/Mould resistant. This is a huge advantage over wooden cutting boards that hold bacteria even after washing.
- Easy on knives. They have a wood-like texture and good feedback.
- They are scratch and wear resistant, and very tough. A test was completed after 50,000 cuts in a controlled environment, and the synthetic board had approximately 66% less wear depth.
- Stability. These boards are weighty, they don't slide around on the bench.
