Konosuke handles

Konosuke's handles are like their knives, understated works of art finished to an excellent standard.

A tall octagonal handle with no taper and typically longer than most Japanese wa handles which allows for the lightweight construction and balances out a blade superbly.

The edges and ends of the handles are smooth and the heel is finished with Konosuke's mark branded into them.
