Hatsukokoro is more than just a name—it’s a quiet homage to the respect Japan holds for craftsmanship, tradition, and the artisans behind each blade. Since 2013, from their base in Amagasaki City, Hatsukokoro has collaborated with some of Japan’s most respected smiths, sharpeners, and handle makers. Their house brand showcases the skill of these often-uncredited masters, allowing the knives themselves to tell the story.
The Kurozome Series is one of their most striking creations. Forged from high-performance stainless Damascus steel, these blades feature a dark, smoky finish that highlights the depth and complexity of the layered construction. The cutting core delivers reliable sharpness and edge retention, while the Damascus cladding provides both durability and an unmistakable aesthetic that stands out in any kitchen.
What sets the Kurozome apart is its balance of beauty and performance. The grind is thin, precise, and agile, making it effortless to maneuver through fine prep work. A subtle polish and the flowing Damascus pattern add visual drama, while the darker “kuro” treatment gives each knife an elegant, refined character. Completing the look is an octagonal stabilized wood handle—comfortable in hand and designed to complement the blade’s bold presence.
As for the shape, the Petty is the go-to utility knife in any kitchen—compact, nimble, and surprisingly versatile. It’s perfect for smaller tasks like trimming meat, peeling, slicing fruit, or working in-hand. Whether you're prepping quick meals or doing detail work where a larger blade feels clunky, the Hikari Petty brings precision and control in a size that’s easy to grab and use every day.
