Proudly made in Seki city, Japan. Introducing the premium carbon steel Minamoto series - Better than the competition, this collection offers a NKS32 blade which is razor-sharp and made to last, offering great edge retention while slicing, dicing, and chopping. With a reinforced black plywood handle, it's smooth and ergonomic finish is for comfort and durability in home and commercial environments.

Considered as a poultry butchering knife, the style name translates into "bone knife".

That being said, many have modernized this knife shape and started using it as their daily utility because of it's particular shape and feel.
