Hitohira's 90 mm office knife is a small, precise and formidably efficient blade, designed for fine tasks and precision work in the kitchen. Forged in Sanjo (Niigata, Japan), it embodies traditional Japanese craftsmanship with a modern twist, thanks in particular to its San Mai construction combining an Aogami #2 (Yasuki Blue #2) steel core and stainless steel cladding.
Aogami #2 steel is renowned for its ability to achieve an extremely fine edge while maintaining excellent cutting performance. Combined with an outer layer of mild stainless steel, this knife benefits from enhanced corrosion protection while retaining the cutting qualities of a carbon steel. The Nashiji finish, characterized by its nuanced rough forged texture, gives the blade an authentic, handcrafted look.
Its compact size and short blade make for a quick, intuitive and precise grip, enabling you to peel, trim, carve or slice small foods with agility. The warm, sober walnut handle provides pleasant balance and a comfortable grip. This knife is fully ambidextrous, ideal for both professionals and cooking enthusiasts looking for a high-performance, elegant tool.
