Sabitoru Rust Eraser – Medium
R150.00
The rust eraser is easy to use for removing rust or other stubborn stains from knives: Soak the rust eraser in water for five minutes before using. Identify the direction of the “grain” of the knife steel (you will see lines in the knife steel) and following the grain, gently rub back and forth until the rust or stain is gone. Always rinse and fully dry your knife after use.
NOTE: rubbing too hard or too long may weaken the steel and may lead to the development of more rust. Use the rust eraser gently and only where needed.

Tojiro Color Series – 165mm Nakiri
There’s always a high demand from professional chefs and culinary students for good quality, durable knife at an affordable price.
The Tojiro Color Series is a great choice. The knives use Molybdenum Vanadium steel with Tojiro’s great grinds and nice sharpness out of the box. The handles are made from a durable elastomeric resin with antibacterial finish.
Tojiro is one of the few manufactures in Japan that performs all of its manufacturing processes in-house. They choose this path of integrated in-house production, from the careful selection of materials to after sale service. The reason why they are able to deliver high quality lies in their commitment to being directly involved in every aspect of making their knives.
Nakiri:
Nakiris are double bevel knives designed specifically for working with vegetables. Nakiris are characterized by their flat profiles and squared off tips. This profile makes these knives ideal for push cutting and chopping but awkward for rock cutting. Nakiris are often ground thin to optimize performance and they benefit from a refined cutting edge. A similar design is the traditional single bevel usuba which is also designed specifically for use on vegetables.

Care Instructions:
- Wash and dry the blade by hand immediately after use. Dishwashers are very bad for all knives.

- Do not cut through bones. You can certainly cut along/beside bones, but do not cut into bones. This can, at worst, chip the blade.
- Never use this knife to cut frozen food. I’m sure you have a 4×4 somewhere in your kitchen for this job.
- Never twist, cleave or prise the blade.
- Always use a wooden or plastic cutting board. Never cut on bamboo, glass, marble, slate, a plate, china, marble, arborite or anything harder than steel.

Masakage Mizu – 165mm Nakiri
Masakage Mizu:
Masakage Mizu Collection is handmade by Anryu san. Knifemaking is in Anryu san’s blood. His family started as knives makers in the early 1870’s. He started apprenticing as a knife maker under his father, Katsutoshi Anryu, after graduating high school in 1959. He is a fourth generation knife maker and has been working as a blacksmith for well over 50 years.
The Blade of the Masakage Mizu is super thin and cuts like a razor. The Hard Aogami #2 steel is laminated between softer layers of carbon steel.
These knives have been named Mizu (water) as the blue/black Kurochi finish gives the impression of cold, deep water. Paired with an oval cherry wood handle these knives represent excellent bang for the buck.
Because the blade is not stainless it requires a bit more care. Keep the blade dry to avoid tarnish and if you ever see a bit of rust on the blade remove it immediately with a coarse dish scrubber and soapy water.
You can also purchase a Sabitoru Rust Eraser and Camellia oil for maintenance.
