About Nigara Hamono 二唐刃物

With 350 years of history, starting from making swords for Tsugaru clan in the early Edo period, Nigara Hamono has passed down know-how and skills for eight generations. Its 5th generation blacksmith Kunitoshi Nigara was a legendary sword maker, earning a long list of accolades, honorary titles, and knighthood. The current (8th) generation blacksmith — Tsuyoshi Yoshizawa is supported by his father Toshiju Yoshizawa who has a keen interest in art and music. Nigara’s famous Anmon design is the result of Toshiju’s love for Andy Warhol’s artworks. The family business’ expansion into construction steelworks has given Nigara unmatched access to in-house know-how when it comes to advanced finishing. All these set Nigara apart as one of the most special knife makers in Japan.

Care:

Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. 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 polyethylene 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.

You need to read this....A+ stuff!
Ok, I have to give my honest opinion here.... I had (yes past tense) two teeth that had small stains on them and the last time I had my teeth cleaned at my Dentists office he stated he could not remove the stains... So, I read the reviews on this toothpaste, did some more research on Google and got it today. After lunch, I brushed my teeth and looked and the stains and they seemed to look lighter. I thought hummm.? Really? Then after dinner, I brushed my teeth again and just looked into the mirror out of curiosity (been a few hours) and I don't see either stain at all ... completely GONE! I am being very honest and so surprised that both stains were gone... Yeah, I know what you're thinking when you are reading this...B.S. right? Well, I am so surprised myself that I ordered two more tubes since they're on sale and I plan on giving one of them to a friend that has some coffee stains on her teeth and see if it works for her too... So, I would have to say that by purchasing the two tubes that I did, was way cheaper than going to my Dentist that stated they couldn't get rid of the stains. I'm totally 100% impressed with this Crest 3D White .. my new go toooooo forever! P.S. I am a ice tea drinker by heart and sometimes coffee too. Signed: So impressed by this stuff and it actually taste good and made my mouth feel fresh and my breath was fresh for a long time too....A+++++ toothpaste! Quick Shipping as well.....

Beautiful white teeth
This works great. I always keep my teeth, nice and clean and bright and white and usually I have to buy Dental whitening, but this is the first time I found a product that you can just brush your teeth a few times a week and it keeps your teeth, nice and white.

Refreshing toothpaste that helps to deep clean your teeth.
Good tasting toothpaste that cleans my teeth well. It seems to have a tiny bit of grit to it to help remove stains on your teeth. The tube is quite small. So, you do not get a lot of toothpaste. But a little goes a long way. I think that it did make my teeth a bit whiter. I did not have any sensitivity to it at all.

Works!
This is an updated review changed from 4 stars to 5 stars after using it for a week. This toothpaste actually removed Matcha Green Tea stains that were between my teeth and other tight areas my hygienist couldn't get into. I'd say this is a product for stubborn stains and I wouldn't use it more than maybe a week at a time because it's expensive for the small size you get and I'm not entirely sure what the long term effect is on the teeth.

A month’s worth of toothpaste!!
Does it work well? Who knows. The tube is maybe 4”, so tiny I needed a magnifying glass to read the contents. Maybe month’s worth of toothpaste!!!
