🔪 Honekiri Knife – For Cutting Hamo (Pike Conger Eel)
The Honekiri is a traditional Japanese knife designed specifically for cutting Hamo (pike conger eel), a prized ingredient in Kansai and Kyoto cuisine.
Key Features of the Honekiri:
・Long, thick, and heavy blade to ensure precision and prevent slippage.
・Specialized for continuous fine cuts through the eel’s dense small bones without breaking the fish’s shape—essential for achieving a boneless, melt-in-mouth texture.
・Demands high sharpness and stability—an advanced tool for seasoned Japanese chefs.
This knife combines high-hardness Honyaki steel with a classic single-bevel structure, delivering outstanding control, cutting power, and craftsmanship.
