About Moritaka Hamono 盛高刃物

Founded in 1293 during the Kamakura Period by Kongohyoe Minamoto no Moritaka (金剛兵衛源盛高), Moritaka Hamono has a blade-making history of over 700 years. For the first 13 generations, the family made swords for Buddhist priests at Mt. Homan in Dazaifu, Fukuoka. In 1632 the family followed the Lord of Kumamoto to Myoken Shrine in Yatsushiro City of Kumamoto, and continued forging swords for Buddhist guards until 5 generations ago, when master swordsmith Chuzaemon Moritaka decided to expand the family business and apply their forging experience to chef knives. Since then the Moritaka family have been making solid and affordable hand-crafted knives and various agriculture steel tools for customers. Moritaka Hamono has pioneered hand-forged Warikomi constructions and patented stainless cladded rosewood handle assembly. Today the 27th generation blacksmith Tsunehiro Moritaka works with his father, one master craftsman and one apprentice to make all the knives for the Moritaka brand.

Care:

Aogami #2 (Blue #2) steel is a premium Japanese high carbon steel for knife making. Despite some corrosion resistant quality (for a carbon steel), it is not stainless, therefore you should wipe your knife dry after each use. Patina will develop over time. Rust may develop if left in prolonged contact with water or acidic food. Use a rust eraser to clean if rusts develop. 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 polyethene 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.

Vomit Inducing
Flavor Name: Antler, Size: Small
My little doggo eats anything and everything and without any ill effects. But the “meaty” gelatinous coating on this chew did her in. After her first 15 minutes of chewing it she was non-stop vomiting on our carpet (that was stained to boot). So sorry to have put her through this. Be advised. Rather than return it I deposited its messy, disgusting remnants in the garbage pail.

This is amazing, it makes my frenchie so happy!
Flavor Name: Y-Gnawt, Size: Medium, Flavor Name: Y-Gnawt, Size: Medium
Our frenchie loves this. She has been chewing on it for over an hour now. She's gotten most of the meat off and is working on the chew now. She is super happy right now. Be sure to give it to your dog on a hard surface that's easy to clean. The package suggests this and it's true. Can be a bit messy at first.

The Meat is a Messy Covering
Flavor Name: Antler, Size: Medium
My dog really enjoys this chew, and I was surprised how meaty it was when I took it out of the package. However, the meat is just a covering and quickly flakes off. She finished the meaty part in about 20 minutes and it was messy! The underlying antler has some criss/cross lines, where meat particles get stuck, so it keeps her interest. Otherwise, once the meat covering is off, it's the same as the original Honest Chew antler.

Frenchie tested, Frenchie approved!
Flavor Name: Y-Gnawt, Size: Small, Flavor Name: Y-Gnawt, Size: Small
My Frenchie LOVES this toy! It keeps her busy while I’m working from home, and I love that the ingredients are all-natural and safe for her, so I don’t have to worry about her gnawing and swallowing bits of plastic. This one can be a little messy at first but SO worth it!
