- Our handmade Yoshihiro Hongasumi knives are crafted with extraordinary skill by our master artisans to create high quality knives that are indispensable in their craftsmanship and performance. White Steel #2 with a hardness on the Rockwell scale of 62 to 63, is forged with iron to create beautiful mist patterns, and an emphasis is placed on refined forging and polishing with the highest attention to detail.
- The Yanagi Kiritsuke is a long slicing knife that was designed to slice thin slices of fish for sushi and sashimi, and is one of the most essential of traditional Japanese knives and is a powerful component in the repertoire of many chefs. The Yanagi Kiritsuke is slightly heavier than the Yanagi with a blade that is wider and a spine that is thicker. The sword tip helps balance the weight of the knife and is recommended for chefs who are interested in a Yanagi but prefer a heftier knife.
- The beauty of its elegant thin blade is its ability to slice through an ingredient in long uninterrupted strokes, preserving its integrity and freshness. A protective wooden sheath called a Saya is included, which protects the knife and adds to its appearance when not in use. This knife is complimented with a traditional Japanese Wa-style handcrafted D-Shaped Handle that is lightweight and ergonomically welds to the hand for seamless use.
- Handcrafted in Japan with traditional techniques, our Yanagi Kiritsuke has a completely flat grind on the front side (Shinogi), a concave grind (Urasuki), and a flat rim (Uraoshi) on the back. The combination of the Urasuki and Shinogi allow for the blade to cut food with minimal damage to the surface and cells, therefore not spoiling the texture and taste. The Uraoshi is the thin, flat rim that surrounds the Urasuki and enhances the strength of the blade at its otherwise vulnerable edges.
- Traditional Japanese knife making values a sharp edge, which requires attention and care. Sharpening and honing should be done with only water whetstones. Hand wash and dry only, and do so immediately if working with acidic ingredients. Do not use on objects such as bones, nutshells, and frozen foods. Carbon steel can oxidize if not properly maintained. Keep dry and oil regularly to prevent oxidation.

If you really want to test your system...
Get a mic that can record down to 1-5 Hz and set it up on a laptop in front of your "system"

The gold coated disc version is impossible to find, but the regular CD will suffice.
You should recognize the music - just play the main track all the way through at a modest level, then you can test the limits. When played on good systems it's easy to close your eyes and be there in the auditorium with the musicians
The spotify list mentioned earlier is awesome. I highly recommend it. Specifically, though, I have three songs that I use to test out headphones (which also are great for fun/bassy types):
Foy Vance - She Burns
1812 Overture (this version with the badass canons at the end)
Blue Man Group - Above
EDIT:
If you ever splurge on some hi-fi speakers, definitely use that telarc version of the 1812 overture to demo them. With the right setup you'll damn near feel THX certified.
> It is very important you get TELARC edition
Is this the right one?
