About Maki-e Art
Maki-e is the traditional Japanese art of Urushi-nuri (Japanese lacquer on wood) sprinkled or hand-drawn with gold and coloured-silver powder. This ancient art was developed in Heian period (794-1185), and was first used on the sheath of the karatachi sword.
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 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.
