Description

About Nenox S-Type
Nenohi applies the skills and techniques of traditional Japanese knife crafting to Western style knives, with great attention to detail in each step of the production process. Nenox knives are made with a confidential blend of high carbon stain resistant steel, which undergoes a sub-zero manufacturing process to ensure a durable edge. Much of the process is done by hand, and all of the knives are hand inspected before they are shipped. From the high carbon stainless blades to the ergonomic design and luxurious handle, these knives are a testament to quality. Nenohi’s Nenox knives are loved and admired by chefs worldwide.
About Desert Ironwood 
Desert Ironwood is made from 50 to 100 year old carbonized roots from the Southwestern deserts of The United States and Mexico. The Nenox steel and lovely dark brown wooden handle allows for a vintage look without sacrificing practicality. Every piece is unique as no two handles have exactly the same shape or color.
Purpose of Honesuki
The honesuki poultry boning knife that is used to separate the meat from the bones. It is lighter and thinner than the garasuki and can be used in place of a Western boning knife.
