Handcrafted Blades for True Masters: Forged Perfection

The traditional Japanese hand grinding method creates a perfect Convex Grinding blade edge, allowing for effortless precision cutting. The Convex Grinding blade edge makes the cutting and chopping process easier due to its reduced surface area contact with the object being cut, resulting in less resistance and improved cutting performance.

Forged and Handcrafted to Perfection

Tenkumun's knives go through a rigorous production process, using high-quality materials and crafted by experienced artisans. Each blade is skillfully sharpened by master craftsmen to ensure sharpness and precision. The unique marks left behind from the grinding process make each knife one-of-a-kind, showcasing true craftsmanship.

Why do true masters need a kitchen knife with a Convex Grinding blade?

The Convex Grinding blade provides better physical performance when cutting hard and tough materials due to the greater edge angle and bevel angle. The slightly curved edge angle assists in penetrating hard and tough objects by aiding the removal of resistance, while also reducing friction caused by instant object rebound, which greatly decreases the risk of chipping compared to V-shaped edges. Using a Convex Grinding blade requires less effort and minimizes the chances of edge damage.
