It is a model that achieves both sharpness and cost performance
by using a special stainless steel that specializes in sharpness for the "core material".
The blade of Sakura series[Popular series for ease of handling]
The Sakura Series is a popular line in Nenohi's collection due to its ease of use. It features a clad (3-layer steel) structure, with high-performance forged stainless steel used only for the core material (center of the knife).
This creates a product with excellent cost performance that boasts sharp cutting ability and durability at a high level.
Heel polish[Detail polishing]
By precisely rounding and polishing the "heel" area that comes into contact with your hand while using the knife, we achieve a stress-free grip and handling experience.
Nenohi's precision polishing, which is often described as "ultra-precise," enhances the knife's functionality while further accentuating its beauty.

Nenohi uses "octagonal handles" for Japanese knives. Each time you grip the knife, you can hold it at the same angle, allowing for precise knife control through consistent reproducibility with continued use.
We design the handles in-house, inspect each finished handle, and select only those of superior quality.
During the "handle attaching" process, we emphasize creating proper hand balance (making the tip lighter) and attaching the knife perfectly straight.
The gap between the knife and handle is filled by carving and inserting "matching material (magnolia wood for magnolia handles, ebony for ebony handles)," making even the handle joints beautiful and preventing gaps from widening with extended use. Additionally, we impregnate heated wax into invisible crevices to prevent rust from water penetration and extend the handle's lifespan. This represents our commitment to ensuring you can use quality knives for many years.
