Tetsujin (MYOJIN x Tamura)
“Tetsujin” serves as the distinctive brand name for knives crafted by the skilled blacksmith Toru Tamura and the adept sharpener Naohito Myojin. Both are highly meticulous artisans, considered among the finest of their generation. Toru Tamura’s blue steel boasts a hardness of approximately 63-64HRC, showcasing resilience against chipping, ease of maintenance, and outstanding edge retention. On the other hand, Naohito Myojin’s sharpening expertise is characterized by impeccably even, thin convex (hamaguri) bevels, delivering superior cutting performance, robust geometry, and an exceptional polish.
The collaborative proficiency of these two longstanding friends manifests in a unique and synergistic manner. While individually they excel, together they elevate their craftsmanship to greatness.
