This is a limited edition top-of-the-line "Sentsuchi Hyakuren" Hinoura gyuto with Aogami #2 steel core and stainless cladding, by Mutsumi Hinoura - the fourth generation of Hinoura with over 100 years of knife making history. Hinoura is known for their Kurouchi finish typically on white #2 steel, but this time Mutsumi-san has made a small batch of polished blades on blue #2, which are very unique to Hinoura collection and exceeds the "Hyakuren" collection as the top-of-the-line Hinoura. The blade has a fine brushed polish, and the charred chestnut handle adds a great character to the knife. Hinoura's forging focuses on easy sharpening by knife owners, and as a result these knives often achieve extraordinary level of sharpness with ease of sharpening. Once sold out, we do not expect another delivery of this collection for the next three years.

About Hinoura Hamono 日野浦 刃物

Hinoura Hamono is a knife making workshop by Tsukasa Hinoura (日野浦 司) & Mutsumi Hinoura (日野浦 睦), the father and son team. Knife making by Hinoura can be traced back to Meiji era when first generation Hinoura, Shintaro Hinoura founded the knife forging business. Having moved to Sanjo city in Niigata in 1912, the Hinouras have been making knives there for over 100 years. Tsukasa Hinoura is a very discerning and low profile Echigo forgesmith, who is high respected by top tier knife artisans in Japan. Taking over the family career at around age of 22 back in 1978, he excelled in every level and his works are greatly admired by artisans in Sanjo, not only because of the beauty of his knives, but also his expression of that artisan soul. His son, Mutsumi Hinoura entered the lifelong career of bladesmithing in 2001, and the father and son team have been making knives that are highly valued in both Japan and overseas.

Care:

Aogami #2 (Blue #2) steel is a premium Japanese high carbon steel for knife making. It is not stainless, therefore you must wipe your knife dry after each use, in particular the core steel not covered by the stainless cladding. Patina will develop over time, which will appear as “discoloration” on the cutting edge, but that is the nature of carbon steel - not a defect. The stainless cladding covers a large part of the blade, making maintenance easier but still preserving the cutting and sharpening pleasure of the Aogami #2 core. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

Absolutely love this!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Best sunblock I’ve ever purchased! I use it mostly for my toddler and the roll on is so easy to apply even when she’s wiggly. It does leave a slight white residue in general (it’s mineral so it usually will) or if it doesn’t get rubbed on all the way but way better than most other mineral sunscreens I’ve used before. Didn’t feel like she looked like a ghost which was a plus! I use plenty of mineral ones because we have pale skin and burn easily. Felt like this has very good sun protection. Used it in Hawaii and didn’t get any sunburn at all as long as we used it as directed. The roll on is my favorite since it glides so well. I’ve used other roll on ones that don’t cooperate and leave clumps or you have to manually roll the ball to get anything out. This one is my favorite and I will keep buying this one forever!

Easy peasy!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Babybun is a healthier option for sunscreen! We use it for our little and the spray for ourseves. This roll on is so convenient! No breathing in the spray for the kids and less struggle. Just a couple quick swipes, rub it in and good to go! Plus it smells like bananas, the kids think its funny with the monkey logo so it has become a game when getting sun ready, winner winner!

Easy to apply
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Easy to apply on my baby. We were on a trip to Punta Cana and were out in the sun a lot and this did a great job protecting his skin.

Go to sunscreen for toddler
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
We love the sunscreen for our toddler (and ourselves) so much! We've tried so many sunscreens out there and we love this one for our 18-month-old and we use it every day. It's awesome that it's roll on so we can apply it easily to our wiggly son and then simply rub in. Our whole family has a very sensitive skin and the sunscreen is not caused any problems. It's gentle and effective. It does have a white cast but all you have to do is rub it in for about 10 to 15 seconds and then you're good to go! We love that it's water resistant because we can't keep our toddler out of the water. I'm going to buy more for Grandma and Grandpa's house and to have in our diaper bag as well.
