  • The Yokote knife is a general purpose Japanese laminated knife blade for shaping, whittling, carving, & even grafting in the garden. Top side is the only side ground & sharpened with the backside flat which can be used in a skimming paring action.

       Mr. Ikeuchi master blacksmith along with his fellow blacksmiths hand forge, grind, & sharpen these knives. White high carbon steel laminated on top with a softer layer of steel allowing the blade to be hardened to Rockwell 64. With all steel as it becomes harder & tougher, it will be more brittle & can snap in half, the soft steel lamination arrests this possibility. These knives we carry from Mr. Ikeuchi are beveled ground on one side only & flat to edge on the underside yet hollow ground as a common practice to facilitate less time in re-honing to a sharp edge.

       Hardwick & Sons is pleased to offer quality tools from Japan for the many people who desire special & well-crafted tools. The wide variety of Japanese products that we offer come from the many craftsmen & toolmakers in Japan who have a special dedication to their skillful craft & art of toolmaking.

use this knife all the time

It's become my favorite wood carving knife. The large bevel makes it super easy to sharpen. Excells at opening the mail too. I only get junk mail and I don't need to slice the envelopes open before tossing them, but I do it anyway because the knife is fun to use.

New Knife

Good experience. First time using this type of knife. I urge people who are just getting into hand carving to wear protective gloves., If I had not had those gloves on ai would have been in the ER GETTING STITCHED UP. These knives are very very sharp but used carefully are a great high quality wood carving tool.
