After 50 years, Anryu san has retired and given over his business to his longtime, trusted apprentice, Ikeda san. Anryu is 80 now and only works part-time forging knives for the business. Anryu Hammered kitchen knives have a reputation among knife users and collectors for being well made and robust as well as possessing an attractive and rustic aesthetic appeal.
The carbon core of the knife will discolor with normal use and could rust if abused. Keep it dry and clean and you are good to go!
The charming 75mm petty is a perfect blade for the processing of smaller ingredients and making garnishes. It has a lovely slim tip, and a nicely rounded choil and spine. The classic hammered finish is perfectly executed, resulting in a knife that looks as good as it performs. A traditional oval handle made from rosewood and pakka wood completes the package.Workshop: Anryu Hamono
