Knife Information
1894- Mr. Tasaburo Shigematsu, a hardware wholesaler, introduced a new pocket knife with its blade and sheath folded by installing a small handle “Chikiri (tail)” on the blade, while inspired by the knife he brought back from Kagoshima.
He named it “Higonokami Knife” because many of his customers were in Kumamoto area (formally Higo country), which turned out to dramatically increase his sales. The blades have gradually changed their shapes. Unlike single-edged knives, the double-edged blades (V-shaped cross section) were in those days considered common. The earlier blades had a sharper tip (shape of a bamboo leaf), but now they have square shapes. The sheaths had a vertically folding style and a cross folding style, now the vertical one has to be custom made.
In 1911, at the First Kobe Export Articles Competitive Exhibition, Crown Prince (later Emperor Taisho) liked Higonokami on display very much and bought one, which is said to have helped its fame further spread.
The Higonikami is a fantastic traditional utility knife at a low cost.

The Ikyu 1000 grit is definitely different from many other stones we stock. Due to it's unique production method and relatively secretive blend ratio, it feels coarser, cuts faster, and feels more like a natural stone compared to many other 1000 grits.
It lays a fantastic base to progress to the Ikyu 3000, a blend of Mikawa Nagura and synthetic powder. It's extra thickness makes for a great value stone. These stones need to be soaked before use.

About the Ozuku
This stone is a very fine, hard finishing stone around ~10,000 grit. Simply splash and go, work up a slurry preferably with a Nagura stone, as this stone does not form a slurry quickly.
Named for the site of its origin, the Ozuku Japanese Natural Whetstone is a product of its homeland’s finest honing practices. Although the material used to produce these pieces comes from the same site, its depth means that there can be significant differences between individual stones. As a result, even though most of these stones fall within 8,000 to 12,000 grit, the actual grit size must be discovered through actual usage. Customers should bear in mind that these pieces are meant to be used along with nagura stones, which are rubbed atop their wet surfaces to produce an abrasive slurry.
Ozuku are mined in Kyoto Japan, one of the Higashi-mono, referring to a collection of five quarries famous since ancient times for their sharpening stones. Stones from Ozuku are renowned for their fine grain and exceptional hardness, though some examples can be too hard at times.
All natural stone sales are final, we try to provide the best possible representation of the stone via our images.
