Hand-crafted using R2/SG2 high-speed powder steel, this Honesuki is beautifully grinded with superb thinness behind-the-edge supported by the 62-63 HRC hardness. Being a guru of steel manipulation and expert on steel construction, Nigara Hamono created a unique Tsuchime pattern that is reminiscent of industrial steel beam. The finish of the jigane is truly unique on this knife - while the tsuchime patterns have an almost nashiji-like texture, the surface also has a matt migaki finish, giving this knife a sophisticated accent. As with all Nigara knives, the fit and finish of this knife are second to none, one example being the extremely smooth choil. 

Note: the shade of darkness of the kurouchi finish (the darker part of the cladding) can vary. The kurouchi may appear to be slightly darker or lighter than what's shown in the photo.

About Nigara Hamono 二唐刃物

With 350 years of history, starting from making swords for Tsugaru clan in the early Edo period, Nigara Hamono has passed down know-how and skills for eight generations. Its 5th generation blacksmith Kunitoshi Nigara was a legendary sword maker, earning a long list of accolades, honorary titles, and knighthood. The current (8th) generation blacksmith — Tsuyoshi Yoshizawa is supported by his father Toshiju Yoshizawa who has a keen interest in art and music. Nigara’s famous Anmon design is the result of Toshiju’s love for Andy Warhol’s artworks. The family business’ expansion into construction steelworks has given Nigara unmatched access to in-house know-how when it comes to advanced finishing. All these set Nigara apart as one of the most special knife makers in Japan.

Care:

Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethylene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

Stylish comfort you can wear all day!
Size: 6.5, Color: Chestnut
My wife has been been wearing the UGG Goldenstar Sandals for a few weeks now, and they’ve totally exceeded expectations. These sandals strike the perfect balance between comfort and style, and she’s gotten so many compliments on them! Pros: • Super Comfortable: The cushioned footbed feels like walking on clouds. Perfect for long days on your feet or casual outings. • Lightweight: Unlike some chunky sandals, these are surprisingly light but still feel supportive and well-made. • Adjustable Straps: The Velcro straps make it easy to get the perfect fit, and they’re great for swelling feet after a long day. • Versatile Style: They look great with everything—from jeans and shorts to casual dresses. • High-Quality Materials: Typical UGG quality—durable suede and solid construction. Cons: • Suede Requires Care: The upper is suede, so they’re not ideal for wet conditions and do need a bit of maintenance to keep looking fresh. • Pricey: They’re on the higher end cost-wise, but I’d say the comfort and quality justify the price. I’m really happy with these sandals. They’re a perfect mix of fashion and function, and I’d definitely buy them again in another color!

Best Sandal Ever
There is nothing about these that I don't LOVE. These are so comfortable and look so good. I have 6 pairs in every color. They r my absolute favorite. Run true to size. Listen to Amazon about sizing. They know... I am between size 7 and 7.5 and they recommended 7 and it was a perfect fit. I have not had any issues with the Velcro closure. Amazon has the best prices for UGGS.

Sandals that go with just about everything.
As a lover of everything Ugg, these didn't disappoint. They are some of the most comfortable shoes I have, very lightweight, and go with just about everything. They remind me of the old school Dr. Martens and I had a massive collection of those in high school. I have worn them quite a bit and you can barely tell as they are holding up extremely well.
