About Yoshikane Hamono 吉金刃物

With 4th generation artisan Kazuomi Yamamoto on the throne, Yoshikina Hamono is a Japanese knife making company in Sanjo City, Niigata with over 100 years history. Founded in 1919 by Shimotajima. Yoshikane Hamono has been making knives by hand for generations in this tiny Japanese town well known for its metalware. To date, they have kept going in the traditional way with such focus and dedication that can only be found in this part of the world.

Care:

Shirogami #2 (white #2) steel is one of the most popular types of high carbon steel found in Japanese kitchen knives (Wa Knives). It is not stainless, therefore you must wipe your knife dry after each use, in particular the core steel not covered by the stainless cladding. Patina will develop over time, which will appear as “discoloration” on the cutting edge, but that is the nature of carbon steel - not a defect. The stainless cladding covers a large part of the blade, making maintenance easier but still preserving the cutting and sharpening pleasure of the Shirogami core. 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.

Durable, even for a Great Dane!
Color: Ultra, Size: XXL
I've bought many tennis ball sized ChuckIt balls in the past (for medium sized dogs we've owned), so when we knew we were going to be babysitting our daughter's Great Dane, I bought a bigger one for her. The 4" is perfect for her! She plays catch with it, but also likes to gnaw on it. It holds up great!

Another great product from Chuckit!
Color: Ultra, Size: XL
Exactly the high quality that I've come to expect from Chuckit! The plastic/rubber used in their products is extremely tough yet gives enough that it's hard to actually pierce the it and tear apart. We have had Chuckit! Sticks and Balls with launcher for years and love them all. This particular ball is pretty big so my 45 pound pit mix struggles to pick it up but that's part of the fun for him. My 85 pound pit mix can pick it up no problem. The only "complaint" is that the two of them have been having so much fun with their new ball, they have already knocked something over and broke it. 😁

Perfect for my mid size pit bull
Color: Ultra, Size: XL
Updating my review, the ball only lasted 5 days. I left the 5 stars because we had enough fun those 5 days to be worth the small price. She has dog has a lot of jaw strength, so I’m not surprised We have a mid size foster pit bull. This ball is her favorite toy. It’s durable and the perfect size for her to play ball safely.

Good quality
Color: Ultra, Size: Large, Color: Ultra, Size: Large
Great quality. I purchased for my daughter’s dog who destroys all toys. This toy holds up. I didn’t realize it was a large and the chickit stick she had was a medium. The large ball ended up working out good for playing inside the house. The dog likes it a lot.
