{"product_id":"hinoki-series-knife-set-3","title":"Hinoki Series Knife Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Hinoki Series is a matched kitchen collection forged in one lineage and handmade in Seki, Japan, so every knife you choose shares the same steel, the same finish, and the same hand. Each blade pairs a hard VG-10 cutting core with 67 layers of suminagashi Damascus and a nashiji upper bevel, set into an ebony wa-style handle that runs consistent across the set. Build your set from the roles you actually cut: the Gyuto for daily chef work from breaking down proteins to running your mise en place; the Kiritsuke as a chef-and-slicer in one, its K-tip ground for precise tip work and clean slicing; the Santoku as the nimble everyday all-purpose knife across meat, fish and vegetable; the Nakiri as the vegetable specialist, its tall flat edge falling straight through onions, cabbage and squash; and the Honesuki as the boning specialist, its stiff pointed blade working cleanly between joint and bone. Add only the knives your kitchen uses and skip the ones it does not. Forged not to break. Honed not to bend. Made to cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne forge, one lineage: every knife you add shares identical steel, finish and handle, so the set looks and cuts as a matched whole rather than a mismatched drawer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVG-10 cutting core at 60 ±2 HRC: a hard, fine-grained edge that takes a keen angle and holds it through real daily use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e67-layer suminagashi Damascus with a nashiji upper bevel: the layered cladding supports the hard core while the textured finish helps release sticky cuts like potato and onion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt around real kitchen roles: Gyuto for workhorse chef work, Kiritsuke for slicing and tip work, Santoku for fast everyday cuts, Nakiri for vegetables, Honesuki for boning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEbony wa-style handle on every piece: a lightweight, balanced grip for controlled cuts hour after hour, consistent from blade to blade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuild-your-set format: choose only the knives your cooking calls for and expand the collection over time without breaking the match.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuild your set: choose the Gyuto, Kiritsuke, Santoku, Nakiri and Honesuki you actually cook with, all forged from the same VG-10 core, 67-layer suminagashi Damascus and ebony wa-style handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBacked by a lifetime warranty against defects and a 60-day return.
