Toshihiro Wakui Knives

Toshihiro Wakui is a very skilled knife maker. He used to work for Yoshikane Hamono in Sanjo. He started his own knife-making business in Sanjo, and his excellent products were long known only to people who love Japanese knives. He has recently become more well-known, and his knives are becoming more popular. Wakui knives are made with a very thin blade and a high level of hardness (around HRC 63-64). They are considered one of the most promising products of modern knife makers.
Wakui knives are made by one of our favorite blacksmiths. His knives are worth the price, and they're good quality. They are designed for easy use in the kitchen and feel durable because of their strong, sturdy handles. The blades are thin and fit perfectly into the handle, which makes them very effective. The White #2 carbon steel used to make the blades is easy to sharpen, stays sharp, and stays sharp for a long time. The steel core rusts over time and develops a beautiful patina, and thanks to the attractive stainless coating, the knives are easy to maintain.
