The Yuri series is the culmination of expertise from a dedicated team of female artisans within the knife industry. Their deep understanding of both cooking and knife craftsmanship has resulted in a design optimised for daily culinary tasks. The series introduces a groundbreaking innovation: the thinnest blade ever produced by Shizu Hamono. This exceptional thinness minimises the effort required to cut through ingredients.

Care:
Always wash your knife by hand in warm soapy water and dry without delay.
Storage in a wooden knife block or magnetic rack is recommended.
It is a good idea wipe blade edge with Camellia Oil regularly to protect it from oxidising. This can be removed by sharpening and coating with oil.
Never put your knife in the dishwasher or leave it wet for too long.
It is recommended to use a sharpening whetstone, not a steel, to sharpen your knife. Steels re-align a blade, but the most precise sharpening is done with a stone.
