Heritage & Use

The Hisamoto identification is retained from the existing listing without adding an unverified brand history or professional-use provenance. The gyuto format offers options for vegetables and boneless ingredients, subject to the knife's assessed condition. The earlier description interprets 0.2mm as a behind-the-edge measurement, but the specification does not establish where it was measured. It therefore does not support a laser-like cutting claim. The recorded G-7 designation is not used to promise specific edge retention or alloy performance.

Care & Maintenance

• Hand wash only; never use a dishwasher
• Dry immediately and avoid soaking the wooden handle
• Hone only with a method appropriate to the existing edge geometry and condition
• Sharpen on suitable stones following the existing double bevel, or consult a specialist
• Avoid bones, frozen ingredients, impact work and twisting through hard food
• Store clean and dry with the edge protected; avoid loose drawers
