The Gigantoku is a revelation. A combination of the classic cleaver and the Japanese santoku. When it comes to precision work the Chinese cleaver can be a deft tool in the right hands, but the addition of the santoku tip makes this kitchen weapon a far more approachable tool. The pointed tip is great for pushing in on onions and other produce for fine detailed work, but the tall blade with its relatively flat profile makes short work of shredding through large quantities of produce.
This Gigantoku features the Kamon Pyramids texture on the face in combination with a blacksmith finish and a satiny smooth belt finish on the bevels. The blade is precision ground and comes down to fractions of a millimetre at the edge and tip. Highly tapered, like all of Mr Kamon’s work this blade is an absolute delight to work with.
The removable handle features the Kamon western profile. Benjamin has chosen a unique bog oak burl and blackened titanium for this piece. It has been textured using bead blasting. The overall piece looks and feels amazing.
