Frequently Asked Questions
How do I best maintain my Narihira knife?
Always wash the knife by hand and dry it after use. Use a honing steel regularly to keep the edge sharp, and avoid the dishwasher as it damages both the edge and the handle.
What is the difference between Narihira and other Tojiro knives?
Narihira is Tojiro's budget series with slightly softer steel (59 HRC), making them easier to maintain with a honing steel, but they do not hold their edge quite as long as Tojiro's more expensive series.
