Hado, which means the road of ‘ha’ (刃, blades). is the brand name for the knives crafted by Fukui Co & Ltd. Japanese artisans attach great importance to ‘tamashi’ (魂, soul). They pour their own souls into individual works. The word, ‘tamashi’ has various contexts. It can mean one’s spirit, determination, backbone, et cetra. ‘Tamashi’ is at the core of Hado project. We sharpen knives one by one, putting our tamashi into the knives. The feeling of the blades builds up something ineffable on our hands and hearts. The Ginsan Series, forged and heat-treated by Yamatsuka Shougou of Yamatsuka Hamono from Sakai, sharpened by Matuyama San and feature Ginsan (Silver-3) steel that combines rust resistance with hardness comparable to carbon steel. The beautiful shinogi line indicates the meticulous sharpening of both the kiriha and the hira. Combined with an amazing Urushi Oak wa handle, these knives are shouting beauty in simplicity. The Ginsan Series are equipped with Urushi Oak handles (a natural lacquer coming from the Urushi tree). Urushi lacquering is a traditional Japanese lacquering technique, mastered through centuries. Multiple layers of the Urushi lacquer is applied on the wood handle, making it resistant to alcali, acids and food safe. Meaning “Beef knife” in Japanese, the Gyuto is the most common and basic of all knives, the Japanese version of the classic western Chef’s knife. It is used as a multi-purpose knife, suitable for meat, fish, vegetables and more. Can be used with almost all different cutting techniques. The 240mm is a commonly used size, handy for both professional and experienced home cooks.
