Takayuki Iwai Aogami Steel No.2 Fumon Series Petty Japanese Chef Knife

This is the Takayuki Iwai Fumon Series. Takayuki Iwai knives are made by hands; they don’t use machines to mass produce because they believe that machine-made knives are less superior than those that are hand made. For Takayuki Iwai, it is quality first.
