The extraordinary quality of the artisan hand-forged Damascus finish on this "Anmon" Kiritsuke Yanagiba knife is simply the best we have ever seen, period. The 7th generation owner of Nigara Hamono, an art-enthusiast himself, designed this unique pattern in 2008 after being inspired by Andy Warhol's artwork as well as the Anmon Waterfalls adjacent to the city of Hirosaki, where Nigara was founded 350 years ago. The fit and finish of this knife are simply second to none - fluidly polished choil and spine, not to mention beautiful grind and smooth tapering. The front of the knife has an awestriking handforged Damascus, which extends to the spine of the blade. With Ginsan (Silver #3) steel, you get similar hardness and some of the characteristics of Shirogami #2, but with stainless / rust resistance properties, making this Kiritsuke Yanagiba much easier to maintain. The Damascus pattern is like nothing we've ever seen. It's simply mesmerizing.

This 360mm (14.2") yanagiba is one of the longest knives we offer. Fitted with a polished ebony double-buffalo triple-ginmaki wa-handle.

About Nigara Hamono 二唐刃物

With 350 years of history, starting from making swords for Tsugaru clan in the early Edo period, Nigara Hamono has passed down knowhow and skills for eight generations. Its 5th generation blacksmith Kunitoshi Nigara was a legendary sword maker, earning a long list of accolades, honorary titles and knighthood. The current (8th) generation blacksmith — Tsuyoshi Yoshizawa is supported by his father Toshiju Yoshizawa who has keen interests in art and music. Nigara’s famous Anmon design is the result of Toshiju’s love for Andy Warhol’s artworks. The family business’ expansion into construction steelworks has given Nigara unmatched access to in-house knowhow when it comes to advanced finishing. All these set Nigara apart as one of the most special knife makers in Japan.

Care:

Ginsan (Gin3 or Silver #3) is a stainless carbon steel, with 14% added Chromium. Retaining the character of Japanese carbon steel, with similar hardness of Shirogami #2, Ginsan is stainless. It's edge retention is only slightly inferior to Shirogami #2, but the fact that it combines ease of sharpening, carbon steel character as well being stainless makes it a great choice for those who wish to have a Japanese carbon steel knife that is easy to maintain.

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.

Great Keyboard Case!
Color: Pink
Bought this for the wife for Mother’s Day since she needed a new keyboard and case. She used my old Magic Keyboard but constantly was tired of taking her iPad off, just to rotate it. Bought this and she loves it. Very durable, even with our 2 year old playing with it. Keyboard is bright and is good to use. Just a Bluetooth keyboard setup and it’s all good to go! Definitely great value for the money and something highly recommended for those with an iPad Air or Pro.

Super cute and soft!
Color: Pine Green, Color: Pine Green
I really like this case. I was surprised by how soft it is! It arrived in perfect condition (just like the photos), no smell, keyboard worked. I followed the sellers instructions to charge before use. I gave it one less star because personally don’t care about the keyboard, it’s a little on the slower side when using the mousepad or typing. I didn’t have any issues with connecting. It was an easy setup. I’d suggest you spend the money for a laptop or a true keyboard if you need it. This is more for looks. If it wasn’t for the quality of the case, I’d probably return.

Good protection for my ipad
Color: Sky Blue
Flap to close is magnetic, so it stays closed. Has a spot for the open for the ipad. Keyboard is a handy feature to have, and love that it lights up.
