Each knife in the Minonokuni Yamahide Hocho series is a work of art, crafted by a single skilled craftsman who oversees all the production processes, from fire-forging to grinding, sharpening, and edging.

One unique feature of these forged knives is that the blade is made thicker near the handle and gradually tapers to a thinner blade tip.

This meticulous attention to detail during the grinding, sharpening, and edging process results in knives that are not only easy to use but also incredibly sharp.

When you use a knife from the FOOMON series, which displays a beautiful wavy pattern on the blade made from piled up steel materials, you'll understand why they're the most popular knives in the series. These knives represent the pinnacle of Minonokuni Yamahide Hocho's craftsmanship.
