Nigara Hamono comes to life in the hands of Go Yoshizawa, the eighth-generation blacksmith keeping a 350-year family legacy alive in Aomori, Japan. Go has a knack for blending old-school swordsmith techniques with modern steel magic, turning every knife into something that’s both sharp enough to make prep work a joy and beautiful enough to admire on the board. With his signature hammered textures and layered Damascus patterns, each knife feels like it has its own personality, making cooking just a little more exciting every time you pick one up.
