5" Utility Knife Aka Tori with engraving
This is one of the most popular kitchen knives in sales rankings. Its compact size makes it ideal for smaller kitchens. It cuts and chops efficiently while being easy to store and handle. It is lighter than chef’s knives or Santoku knives and sits comfortably in the hand. A great gift option and an excellent entry point into a quality knife collection.
Natural handle and finish
The blade is made of 67-layer Damascus steel, with a 10Cr15Mov core (60–62 HRC). The Tokyo Hammer line features handles made of Cuibourtia (Bubinga) wood combined with ebony. Bubinga is known for its hardness, deep reddish color, and beautiful grain, as well as resistance to fungi and mold.
Due to the natural structure of the wood, each handle may slightly differ in shade, making every piece unique.
Lifetime service
The Tokyo Hammer line knives are not the easiest to maintain, but they are far from troublesome. With minimal care, they will serve you for a lifetime. We provide a lifetime warranty for the Tokyo Hammer line.
Elegant packaging – ready-to-gift premium product
Each knife comes in a premium gift box combining minimalist design with Japanese aesthetics. Perfect as a wedding, anniversary, or birthday gift.
Care instructions
Do not wash in a dishwasher. After use, wash under running water and dry the blade and handle thoroughly. Occasionally treat the handle with a small amount of oil (e.g. olive oil).
The blade has a 15° edge per side and should be sharpened manually on water stones. For maintenance, ceramic rods can be used regularly.
Traditional tsuchi-me technique
Knives in the Tokyo Hammer line feature traditional hammered patterns (tsuchi-me). This technique is not exclusive to Japan and historically appears in many cultures. Today it is mainly aesthetic and helps prevent food from sticking to the blade.
