You can recognize knives by Tadokoro-san by their distinct double high shinogi. Their are two Shinogi lines, both sides of the blade have one, whichs adds up as two. On both sides the flat part (hira) meets the shinogi line and from here starts the kireha (primary angle of the blade). The knifemaker discribes it to us always as ‘double shinogi ‘ blade. This means the blade is sharpened on both sides. This is visible in the high forging lines on both sides of the blade, with a broad exposed core steel in the center. It clearly reflects the craftsmanship of this experienced knifemaker, who began his training at the age of 16 under master craftsmen in Sakai. The refined thin blade geometry ensures exceptional sharpness and, thanks to the excellent convex profile, outstanding food release.
