Special by Masahiro

The Special Masahiro series of Japanese knives with shirogami steel offers high-quality knives with an impressive magnolia wood handle.

Shirogami steel, known for its exceptional sharpness and ability to maintain its edge in pristine condition, represents the epitome of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. Its white hue and ease of processing make it ideal for creating unique, handmade high-quality knives.

The handle is crafted from magnolia wood, one of the highest quality and most durable woods used in knife-making. Magnolia wood offers natural resilience and resistance to wear, while its smooth texture and elegant appearance provide an exceptional feel in the hand, making it ideal for daily kitchen use.

Shirogami steel is high in carbon and is one of the sharpest metals for kitchen knives, but it is not stainless. Proper maintenance and avoiding the appearance of rust require very careful cleaning and drying after each use.
