Description
Rooted in tradition and built for modern versatility, the Tosa Ginsan Stainless Funayuki All-Purpose Knife is a hand-forged Japanese blade designed to handle a wide range of kitchen tasks with precision and ease. Forged in Kochi, Japan by the master blacksmiths at Kurotori, this knife reflects over 130 years of Tosa Uchihamono craftsmanship. It is made with Ginsan (Silver #3) stainless steel, a premium Japanese steel known for combining the sharpness and edge retention of carbon steel with the rust resistance of stainless.
Originally carried by fishermen aboard boats, the funayuki knife was prized for its ability to handle everything from cleaning fish to slicing vegetables in tight quarters. Today, the Tosa Ginsan Stainless Funayuki All-Purpose Knife offers that same versatility in home and professional kitchens alike. Its slightly curved edge and pointed tip allow for delicate cuts and precision work, while the 5.5-inch blade length makes it compact yet capable of tackling meats, produce, and seafood with confidence.
The walnut wood handle adds a natural warmth and ergonomic comfort that balances beautifully with the finely polished blade. Every stage of production—from forging and sharpening to handle crafting—is completed in-house by Kurotori’s skilled artisans.
Whether you’re prepping fish for dinner or chopping vegetables for a stir-fry, the Tosa Ginsan Stainless Funayuki All-Purpose Knife delivers heritage craftsmanship, modern performance, and enduring quality in one indispensable tool.

Japanese Knives
Japanese culinary knives (hōchō, 包丁) are world renown for their outstanding quality and artisanal craftsmanship. Hundreds of years ago, blade technology advanced tremendously during the samurai era, when swords were in great demand. Production fell sharply during the Meiji Restoration of 1868, when carrying swords was banned entirely. Many swordsmiths and artisans switched from swords to kitchen blades, and some started creating superior products by applying their centuries-old knowledge of sword-making. Japanese knives have earned a dedicated following among culinary professionals and passionate home cooks. Traditionally made with carbon steel blades, many high-performance knives these days are produced with Japanese stainless steel for excellent durability and easy maintenance. Consider the grip, weight, length, material, and quality when choosing a Japanese knife and see the difference in your chopping skills and final dish.Shipping & Return
