關於 Hatsu Tomoe-ha 廚刀

Hatsu Tomoe-ha 係一把廚刀，喺一塊刀身上結合咗多用途刀同削皮刀嘅功能。刀身以防鏽不鏽鋼激光切割而成，再經打磨開鋒，保持持久鋒利。刀身底部闊40毫米，向刀尖逐漸收窄。刀柄採用日本厚朴木製造，令整把刀輕巧細緻。刀柄嘅形狀易於發力，即使係初次落廚嘅人都可以輕鬆使用。細小嘅尺寸適合細廚房，亦啱放喺砧板上使用。

由設計師提供嘅製作人員名單、團隊成員同技術詳情。

獨特屬性: Tomoe-ha is a kitchen knife that incorporates the dual usage of an all-purpose knife and a paring knife into one single utensil. It is made for people who are starting to live alone or for those who want to enjoy cooking with their children. Especially in countries with small living quarters like Japan,
having a simple yet highly functional mini kitchen knife makes cooking in a limited kitchen space more enjoyable. Tomoe-ha enables the user for an easier daily cooking routine and sustains that lifestyle for a longer period of time.
尺寸同包裝: W225×D18×H40mm. Blade length: 130mm
標籤: Japanese, sharperner, knife, handcrafted, blade
生產技術: Steel is laser-cut to take its unique shape and then sharpened to turn into a working blade. The blade is made of rust-resistant stainless steel (locally termed as
"VG7") for long-lasting sharpness. The handle is manufactured by a woodworks company specializing in making knife handles for Echizen blades. Made from Hoonoki wood, it makes the handle light and compact. The overall shape of the handle makes it easy to apply force, so that even first-time cooks can use this
knife with ease.
設計挑戰: Finding the right balance between an all-purpose knife and a paring knife. In the end, we end up with a blade with a new kind of shape that has not existed before in any kitchen knives.
研究: The shape of the hybrid blade is the result of comparing the shapes and sizes of various small Santoku knives and a petty knives. In order to be used for both functions, we came up with a blade width of 40 mm at the base and a narrower blade towards the tip.
靈感: The Tomoe-ha mini kitchen knife combines the best features of the small Santoku knives (all-purpose knives) and petty knives (paring knives). The Japanese characters used for the name "Tomoe-ha” means ‘having two characteristics in equal measure,’. The characteristics of the small Santoku knife (used for cutting big things) and the petty knife (used for cutting vegetables) represents the idea of Tomoe-ha by incorporating both functionality into a knife that bears a single blade.
項目時長: Manufacturing was done in Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture. Design was done in Osaka, with frequent visits to Fukui Prefecture for quality control.
操作流程: Tomoe-ha fits the right size to use for cutting fruits and sliced cabbages for quick and easy cooking. It is also small enough to fit on a cutting board, making it easy to use in a compact kitchen, thus making the daily routine of cooking easier for the user.
