Features of the Gokuyjo series

Max moved to Japan in 2020. His original idea was to work in the car trade, a job for which he had been trained. In his search for work, he accidentally came into contact with Baba Hamono, who had a vacancy at the time. Attracted by the craft, Max was trained by no less than the best: he was able to follow his training as a sharpener under the guidance of Morihiro san, Nishida san and Myojin san. Under the watchful eye of Baba, Max now has his own series: Gokuyjo.

Due to circumstances, Max has stopped as of 2024 and the skilled craftsmen of Baba Hamono will continue this series.

A knife made entirely of carbon steel, so no stainless steel outer layer. This series comes standard with matching saya!

Elwin de Veld about Baba Cutlery Works

Baba Hamono had been on my list of places to visit for a long time. When Baba contacted me to do business I knew I had to jump in right away. There are some very important and leading sharpeners in Sakai and Baba Hamono is one of the top 3. It is an honor to do business with these knife makers, who bring tradition and modern craftsmanship together in a unique way.

Knives with a double-sharpened blade and a double shinogi are not new. The refinement with which Baba Hamono finishes his knives can certainly be called unique. The thinning of the blade has been so perfected that there is no unevenness, as you often have with cheaper inferior models. An extremely thin cutting surface provides unparalleled ease of cutting.
