Knife Information
*We have several of these knives available, each have very slight variations in blade finish*
"Originally from Poland, I came to the UK 14 years ago. I earnt a decent living as a middle manager in the retail yet this career left me feeling wholly unfulfilled. I knew that I wanted to create something that would last. I was used to getting dirty and working with my hands – so I was thrilled to learn that Hereford College of Arts ran a blacksmithing course. The next thing I knew, I’d quit my job and started training.
Since then I produced a series of superb artisan tools and knives, using age-old skills to produce modern objects of desire. My inspiration comes from the history and the traditional methods, getting to grips with hammer, tongs, and fire. For having these skills has paid off more than a career in retail ever would."

Knife Information
Tadafusa manufacture their knives in the city of Sanjo, well known across Japan as the ‘town of blacksmiths’. The likes of Yoshikane, Hinoura, and Kawamura all hail from the same city. Tadafusa was founded in 1948 by Sone Torasaburo, who began making sickles, knives, and other bladed tools using traditional forging methods, but then began to specialise in kitchen knives, which has culminated in the immaculate pieces you see here.
Best paired with a camellia oil, wooden saya and a 1000/6000 whetstone
This knife is great for:
✅ Those wanting a fairly easy knife to maintain, but don't mind carbon steel maintenance
✅ Those who like slightly thicker and heavier knives with comfy western style handles
✅ Pinch grip cutters
✅ Larger cutting (larger meats etc)

Knife Information
A relatively young but masterful blacksmith, Shigeki Tanaka crafts his knives in a workshop in Miki City, Japan. Known for being skillful and creative, he works with almost all knifemaking steels, from high carbon like Aogami, to powder stainless steel. His range of R2/SG2 Black Damascus had our jaws on the floor when we received our first shipment from him!
The first thing we noted was the impeccable presentation. A Palownia wooden box houses all his R2 knives and is lined with red velvet. The etching of these blades has left a dark, misty, striking Damascus pattern, and are dressed in Walnut handles. Beautifully thin grinds ensure fantastic cutting performance, and 64HRC guarantees phenomenal edge retention
Best paired with a 22cm felt lined blade guard and a 1000/6000 whetstone
