Daruma Hamono

Daruma Hamono is the work of sharpener and bladesmith Akihiro Furukawa, formerly of Nigara Hamono in Aomori, Japan. His brand name combines the characters for “achieve” and “polish,” reflecting a simple goal: create hand–ground knives with exceptional cutting feel and control.

Each Daruma Hamono blade is carefully tuned at the grinder, with thin, confident geometry and excellent steel treatment in both stainless damascus and Ginsan (Silver 3) constructions. The result is a modern Japanese workhorse that glides through food, holds an edge, and feels precise and responsive in hand.
