刃渡り
A cute whale-shaped mini knife with a rounded tip that is safe.
A lovely design that makes you feel as if you are swimming gracefully in the ocean, and it is currently gaining popularity among children and women!
A traditional craftsman of Tosa carefully made each one.

The reason for the birth of the whale knife
"I want you to make a blunt knife for sharpening children's pencils."
At the mother's request.
Since it is not sharp, it is finished in a shape that can be used safely even by small children.

Safe and secure, with a thick blade and excellent sharpness, the whale knife is useful in a variety of situations.
Children can sharpen pencils, woodworking, paper knives, gardening, cutting knives in the office, peeling fruit, outdoor activities, and more.

The black surface of the whale knife is an oxide film, and it is characterized by a slightly rough texture and uneven color that gives a handmade taste.
Two types of metals are combined, quenched, and re-oiled.

This whale knife was selected as an honorable mention from over 100 submissions at the 1st Kochi Souvenir Making Contest.
Also, at the 18th Japan National Village Revitalization Exhibition held in 2004, it was awarded the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Award, the highest award.

It is sure to please.
