Haiku Original Japanese 2-Knife Set

Exceptional Steel, Built to Last

The Haiku Original blades are forged from high-carbon Japanese steel, with a hardness of approximately 58° HRC. This precise alloy combines strength and flexibility, ensuring a sharp, durable edge while minimizing the risk of chipping. The result: clean, consistent cuts with a finesse that appeals to both discerning enthusiasts and seasoned professionals.

The Refinement of Honoki Wood

Complementing the noble blade is the understated elegance of the handle. Crafted from treated Honoki wood, a traditional Japanese material, it offers lightness, comfort, and resistance to moisture. Unlike untreated handles found in more accessible ranges, this one is designed to withstand the test of time while preserving its natural elegance. Its ergonomic shape provides a secure and comfortable grip, allowing prolonged use without fatigue.

Artisanal Sharpening, a Signature Touch

Each knife is hand-sharpened at a 15° V-Edge angle on both sides. This ambidextrous edge makes the knives equally suitable for right- and left-handed users. The result is a smooth, precise, and effortless cut, turning every culinary gesture into a natural and efficient movement.

More Than a Knife Set, an Experience

The Haiku Original Set – Santoku 17 cm and Utility 14 cm – is far more than a collection of tools: it is an experience. It brings the excellence of Japanese cutlery into your kitchen in its purest, most enduring form.

Designed for passionate cooks who wish to elevate their culinary practice, as well as professionals seeking reliability and beauty, the Haiku Original Set is an investment in a five-century-old tradition, crafted to last a lifetime.

Authenticity. Performance. Elegance. The Haiku Original Set invites you to cook with precision and grace, carrying forward the quiet legacy of an ancestral art.
