Takada No Hamono

Takada-san has spent many years as a grinder in Sakai and specializes in double bevel hamaguri style convex grinding. He worked for Ashi Hamono for many years, and is very skilled at grinding thin double bevel knives with excellent cutting feel. Their thinness makes it important to avoid misuse such as scraping, twisting and using on hard objects like bones, frozen foods and dense vegetables.

Takada no Hamono opened in 2018, in the old style of a small wood frame house converted to a workshop. There are dozens of atelier like this in Sakai, but Mitsuaki’s is the first of it’s kind to be opened in many, many decades.
