Yanick is the kind of fanatical perfectionist that custom builds tools and machines, painting outside the lines to achieve the quality standards he desires, refusing to let the limitations of his tooling stand in the way of perfection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWell known for outstanding fit and finish, beautiful hazy Kasumi polish and incredible cutting performance and geometry. Occasionally, Yanick also produces Honyaki knives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHonyaki are forged from high carbon steels using a variable hardening technique that involves the application of a special clay to the spine of the blade before it is quenched. This process leaves the blade with a soft, resilient spine, a beautiful hamon (or temper line), and hard, sharp edge. Extremely challenging to produce at the best of times, some well respected blacksmiths lose up to 60% of their work, making Honyaki some of the most sort after and treasured knives amongst enthusiasts and collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis beautiful piece features a 305mm blade forged in 135Cr3 carbon steel. The hamon is a beautiful wave like pattern that streaks along the top half of the blade. Finished with a satin polish the blade has an elegant soft look to it with incredibly fine alloy banding revealed in the steels surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handle is a symmetrical octagonal shape in Santos Rosewood with Imitation Ivory spacer. The subtle elegance of this piece is only exceeded by the extreme cutting performance of the blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA stunning piece of functional art by Yanick Puig.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yanick Puig","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43843642622217,"sku":"MC-124-894","price":318613.0,"currency_code":"ISK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0581\/7273\/5626\/products\/Sujihiki305mmHonyaki135Cr3-SantosRosewood_ImitationIvorySpacer-6.jpg?v=1754644710","url":"https:\/\/moderncooking.com\/en-is\/products\/yanick-puig-sujihiki-305mm-honyaki-135cr3-rosewood-immitation-ivory","provider":"moderncooking.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
