Product Description

You won't find this knife elsewhere, or anything quite like it. Other than perhaps a larger naginata knife Ikenami Hamono offers at 210mm. For sheer value and versatility the 180mm is the pick, especially for the home.

It's sensationally sharp. Eye-widening sharp. The pro use is in fish processing, where users deal with hundreds of fish at speed every week and need a knife that requires minimal effort when filleting, slicing and lopping. The blade profile aids in slicing along the spine of the fish - take a look at the video we uncovered to see how it's done. If you break down large fish you'll appreciate what you can do with this knife. Handy for South American barbecues too.

  1. MUST HAVE

    Posted by Alessio on 3rd Oct 2023

    Knife whose existence was unknown to me, now it's a must to have at least one, magnificent workmanship, shirogami#1 my favourite, perfect cherry wood handle (....about the plastic ring...). In use for 15 days it amazed me with its versatility of use, it's a must.

  2. Isn't there anything this knife can't do??!!! : )

    Posted by Hayato Minami on 26th Feb 2020

    I've purchased one, not knowing exactly what expectations were to tell you the truth. Unlike deba, this is rather light-weighted, but man, let me tell ya, it processes fish clean, easy and very effortlessly. It is probably because the weight center is up front, that make the knife feel a lot heavier when holding it, and also the height of blade gets wider as approaching the front. As you cut into fish, this knife finishes the job before you even start. That's how it feels like. Very eerily yet fantastic. I tend to like using a light-weighted knife on a lot of things. It gives you better sense what you doing (and what you doing wrong too). Once you bond with it, you can never go back to heavier ones. It would seem very dull in vibe and masks the detail feel of what it's touching. Oh, geez. Try veggie. I could give you the whole new set of goodies about how well it cut them. Well, I could go on and on. I guess you would have to try it yourself to see it validates my awe.
