First Impressions

The Shirasagi single bevel is an impressive selection of blades across their entire range. Made by Tamura Tooru at Myojin Hamono for Hatsukokoro, they show a great level of consistency and up close the fit and finish is of a high standard. 

These are all single bevel blades designed exclusively for right handed use.

Beauty

A subtle brushed migaki hairline finish runs at a 45 degree angle along the main body of the blade cladding before it begins to taper and the finish then runs horizonally along the length of the blade before it reaches the exposed cutting edge. 

Paired with a tradtional octagonal teak wa handle this is a fabulous looking knife on either side of the blade.

Durability

The Ginsan core steel is treated to a hardness around 61HRC which offers a good combination of edge durability and retention. 

Ease of Care & Maintenance Tips

Unlike the White #2 version of the Shirasagi range, the Ginsan is stainless so if your priority is easy care while retaining the looks and overall geometry of the range then this is a great option. 

Follow our normal care tips for long term maintenance.

Our Verdict

Hatukokoro have collaborated well in recent times with their partners and designed and created some really impressive knife collections and the Shirasagi is another one that's going to hit the spot at a competitive price point for those seeking a single bevel knife.
