An In depth look

Blade Type
The Honesuki knife, a traditional Japanese boning knife, is uniquely crafted for poultry butchery. Its triangular, sturdy blade is adept at maneuvering around bones, joints, and tendons, offering precise control. With a pointed tip for detailed work, the Honesuki is indispensable for chefs specializing in meat preparation.

Steel Type
Japanese Ginsan steel, also known as Silver-3 or G3, is an underrated high-grade semi-stainless steel loved by many for being in the ‘goldilocks zone’ of knife steels. It holds a very respectable edge, but is effortless to sharpen. It is considered the semi-stainless version of White 2. It is the knife steel of choice for many home cooks and professional chefs alike.

Care Information
This knife is made with stainless steel and is easy going and low on maintenance. It has high chromium content, meaning it is generally considered safe to leave wet on the board for short periods of time. is still best practice to not leave this knife to air dry as it's stain-less not stain-none! Wipe down after washing the knife and store away from any sources of moisture.


Introducing
Artisan Crafter with Traditional Techniques
Knives we offer at Chef’s Edge are artisan-crafted in Japan — the product of traditional techniques, skilled hands, and a culture deeply rooted in blade-making excellence.
We work directly with blacksmiths and workshops across Japan to curate what we believe is the most exceptional range of Japanese kitchen knives in the world. Whether shaped in a small forge in Sanjo or hand-finished in Sakai, each piece reflects the care, precision, and performance that define true craftsmanship.
At Chef’s Edge, we exist to bring these tools — and their stories — into the hands of cooks who appreciate the difference.
