SHINBU

- A MASTERPIECE BORN FROM 100 YEARS OF HERITAGE -

Sharpness Meets Soul

Forged by "Fukube Kaji," who have served as local blacksmiths in Noto since 1908. SHINBU is more than a tool; it is an evolution of traditional craftsmanship designed for the modern kitchen.

6 Key Advantages

1. Enduring Sharpness: Using Aogami No. 2 steel core.

2. Precision Balance: Designed for effortless handling.

3. Fish Specialist: Ideal for small to medium fish preparation.

4. Multi-Purpose: Excels with meat and vegetables too.

5. Low Maintenance: Stainless steel cladding to resist rust.

6. Authentic Noto Forged: Genuine handmade quality.

Mastering the SHINBU: 6 Key Applications

01. Effortless Filleting (Sanmai-oroshi)

The blade is designed to glide smoothly between the bone and the flesh. Even for beginners, filleting small to medium-sized fish like horse mackerel (Aji) becomes a fluid, stress-free process.

02. Powerful Bone Cutting

Utilizing the "Ago" (the heel of the blade) where the spine is 4mm thick, you can easily snap through fish heads or tough cartilage with a clean, decisive cut.

03. Precision with the "Squid Knife" Tip

Inspired by traditional Noto squid-splitting knives, the curved tip allows you to use your wrist to "flick" the blade, ensuring the skin is sliced perfectly without dragging on the cutting board.

04. Master of Meat

The SHINBU excels at detail work, such as removing silver skin or connective tissue from beef and pork. It provides the control of a boning knife with the sharpness of a laser.

05. No-Slip Performance

Slippery chicken skin is often the ultimate test for a knife. The SHINBU’s hand-honed edge bites in immediately, allowing for clean portions without the meat sliding away.

06. Your Daily Companion

While it's a specialist for fish and meat, its compact 120mm blade makes it an excellent choice for peeling fruit, slicing vegetables, and general meal prep in small urban kitchens.
