Experience three compact vintage Japanese blades in one set

This pre-owned three-piece set brings together recorded carbon steel blades measuring 160mm, 160mm and 150mm, each with a wood handle. Their compact sizes offer a selection for controlled preparation once each blade's profile and condition have been assessed.

Heritage & Use

No individual maker attribution or production date has been established for these knives. Their recorded lengths place them in a compact size range, but specific preparation roles should follow confirmation of each blade's shape and geometry. Earlier claims of a matched set from a golden era, individual inspection and ready-to-use condition are not supported by documented assessments. Carbon steel can develop a natural patina with use and requires prompt drying to help prevent rust.

Care & Maintenance

  • Hand wash only; never use a dishwasher
  • Dry immediately after use and avoid soaking the wood handles
  • Hone only where appropriate for each blade's confirmed edge geometry
  • Sharpen on suitable water stones, preserving each knife's existing bevel, or consult a specialist
  • Apply a light coat of food-safe oil before extended storage
  • Remove active rust rather than treating it as patina
  • Store clean and dry with every edge protected
