Based in Seki-city, Kanehide’s products are known for their line of highly effective, durable knives that come at affordable prices. Their no-frills approach has produced many workhorse knives known for their dependability and longevity, particularly their butcher knives. 

Kanehide’s Bessaku line is incredibly durable and resistant to warping thanks to their mono-steel construction. Furthermore, they receive a special cold treatment during the quenching process of forging to further strengthen and stabilize the blades, while the rosewood handle provides reliable traction in slippery settings. For butchers and cooks working on lines where large quantities of poultry need to be processed, look no further than knives from the Kanehide Bessaku line.

Honesuki is a boning knife specifically designed for, but not limited to, processing poultry. The sturdy and pointy tip allows the user to be more precise and waste less, and the protruding heel means you can use it for separating cartilage with ease. If you are comfortable getting a whole chicken, or larger cuts of pork or lamb from the butcher to make it exactly how you want it, this is a great knife to have around.
