About Sakai Takayuki 堺 孝行

Care:

Ginsan (Gin3 or Silver #3) is a stainless carbon steel, with 14% added Chromium. Retaining the character of Japanese carbon steel, with similar hardness of Shirogami #2, Ginsan is stainless. It's edge retention is only slightly inferior to Shirogami #2, but the fact that it combines ease of sharpening, carbon steel character as well being stainless makes it a great choice for those who wish to have a Japanese carbon steel knife that is easy to maintain.

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.

Great, durable toy
Color: Blue-Red, Size: Extra Large Size 5 (9")
I’ve had this toy for a while now and my dog absolutely loves it. I frequently bring it to the dog park with us and it’s also loved by other dogs. The ball is pretty durable. My dog is not a big chewer but other dogs that play and chew on it haven’t been able to pierce it yet. The handles are sturdy and also still intact. Overall a little pricey but in my opinion worth it.

Best ball ever!
Color: Red-Blue, Size: Large Size 3 (8"), Color: Red-Blue, Size: Large Size 3 (8")
Oh my goodness. My cane corso (15 mos) LOVES this ball. It’s easy for them to pick up because of all the little handles sewn into the ball. It’s easy to throw as well. The only thing is he likes to chew them off if he gets free time with the ball. The ball itself is very sturdy. highly recommend, and I’ll be ordering more. We play with this every morning and he’s so excited to take it outside.
