We are pleased to introduce these fine knives made by blacksmith Shindo san in Tosa, Japan.
This line of kitchen knives is made with Blue #2 Carbon steel, also known as Aogami #2, which is a favorite with our customers. The steel is heat-treated to HRC 62+-, which is the sweet spot for excellent edge retention as well as ease of sharpening.
These are really good-looking knives featuring a well-done kurouchi finish on the upper blade road that fades to a nice matte sand-blasted lower portion. The simple but attractive handle made from burnt oak wood is a perfect match for the blade and the name of the brand. “En” means flame in Japanese and “jin” means blade. Perfect indeed!Brand: Enjin
