Hand forged and hand sharpened in Nagano by blacksmith Jiro Nakagawa in shirogami 1 with a soft iron cladding.

Jiro knives are hand warikomi forged, ground and finished according to old techniques by hand, there are little industrial processes employed, therefore not many knives are produced but the quality is top notch. Jiro's water quenched temper and careful heat treatments are exceptional and the edge formation and retention excellent with a great sharpenability.
