History of Shizu Hamono
Shizu Hamono Co. Ltd. was founded in 1980. However, the brand's history goes back much, much further. The name of the company subtly refers back to its origins. 'Shizu' refers to Saburo Sizu. A master craftsman and sword maker from the Edo period (1603-1868). Hamono refers to Japanese cutting tools such as chisels, scrapers, knives and other products with a blade existing of two parts: a rock-hard steel core, forged together with a softer, stainless steel. This is still a popular choice for Japanese knife makers. And that includes Shizu Hamono!
Not much more information can be found about this mysterious knife manufacturer. But as they put it: 'Our dream become products from our enthusiasm and technology'. We're sold.
