About Naoki Mazaki 真崎直樹

Mr. Naoki Mazaki (真崎 直樹) is a relatively young knifemaker born and grew up in Hokkaido, Japan. In his late 20s, without a clear goal of what to do, he left Hokkaido and went on a road trip around Japan on his Harley-Davidson motorcycle. When he stopped by in Sanjo City, he was amazed by the knifemaking industry in the city, so he made up his mind becoming a blacksmith and began his apprenticeship with master blacksmith Kiyoshi Kato (藤原 良明). Mazaki set up his own workshop in Sanjo City in 2017, and has been doing the forging, grinding, finishing and sharpening, all by himself. 

Care:

Aogami #2 (Blue #2) steel is a premium Japanese high carbon steel for knife making. Despite some corrosion resistant quality (for a carbon steel), it is not stainless, therefore you should wipe your knife dry after each use. Patina will develop over time. Rust may develop if left in prolonged contact with water or acidic food. Use a rust eraser to clean if rusts develop. 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.

Very basic
Format: Paperback
The idea of the book is to be condensed and concise but there is too much information that should be expanded on that is not. The writers of this book seem to think students using the book have a strong pediatric background but for FNPs that isn’t always the case. I found myself having to do research outside of the book to understand the chapters. Also there were many typos and mislabeled diagrams.

Poorly written
Format: Paperback
I had to get this for my class. I wish I had a different textbook because it is poorly written, does not explain details, hard to follow the sentences in a certain sections, A LOT of typos (totally misspelled name of the disease). I don't think this is very good textbook material.
