Product Description

There's a great story behind this knife but we haven't got it entirely straight just yet - check back for some insight into the whys and wherefores of this unique form factor and how it came to be. There's some influence from continental Asia in there somewhere, we feel, and that would square with Tottori prefecture's historical contacts with Korea and further afield.

Your Otsuka table knife will be unique - each and every one is the result of close creative collaboration between Cocoro Store and Otsuka Hamono of Tottori prefecture. Cocoro meets kire-aji - heart meets cutting feel.

Over a number of years Cocoro Store's Tanaka san has developed an expertise in curing, crafting and fitting these natural Yamazakura mountain cherry handles. We've held a number of them and the comfort is almost spiritual. Overstatement? You'll see.

Please measure your palm and let us know your dominant hand and height so that Tanaka san may work his magic in selecting a handle just for you.

OK, now for the not so great news. Waiting times have blown out for all of Otsuka san's knives. Fulfilment may be 6-12 months hence. The timeframe is uncertain. We're happy to accept your order and make arrangements but this is a set-and-forget order that you might actually forget you've placed. Don't worry, we'll remind you when the knife arrives and payment can be made when your knife is ready to ship.
