    Summary

    Named after the Japanese word for "illumination," the masterfully crafted, award-winning knives in the Hikari collection are distinguished by their stunning birch PakkaWood handles and "hornet's nest" blade pattern. Each knife edge is exceptionally sharp and long-lasting, with microserrations that reduce friction for clean slicing and chopping. Hand made in Japan from high-carbon stainless steel, this serrated utility knife excels at cutting everything from soft-skinned tomatoes to crusty bread.

    • Dual-core stainless-steel blade is clad on each side with 71 micro layers of high-carbon, high-chromium stainless steel to create "hornet's nest" pattern reminiscent of Damascus-style blade.
    • Exceptionally sharp cutting edge is long-lasting and easy to maintain.
    • Microserrations minimize resistance between blade and cutting board and reduce tearing.
    • Durable birch PakkaWood handle resists moisture and bacteria.
    • Handle offers comfort and control for both left-handed and right-handed use.
    • Polished bolster promotes secure grip.
