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. Double bevel slicer for boneless meat and fish. The name translates to “muscle cutter”. It is usually long and thin with a low profile and the purpose of it is for cutting in one single slice in order to create minimum cellular damage (That preserves the original texture and flavor of the protein). Perfect for slicing and back draw cut motions. The specific knife comes in the common size of 240mm.
