OUL Ginsan Tsukishiro Tsuchime Damascus 165mm Santoku Burnt Oak
Ginsanko is a fine grained, high carbon content (1% + carbon), low chromium (13%) stainless steel with the cutting and sharpening feel of a carbon steel, but less maintenance with regard to reactivity.
HADO is based in Sakai, Japan, launched in 2019 by Fukui & Co. Ltd. The brand was influenced by Tadataka Maruyama, a former sales and warehouse manager at Fukui & Co., whose passion for craftsmanship led him to train for three years with master sharpeners in Sakai. With the support of company president Motonari Fukui, HADO was created to foster Maruyama’s journey and uphold Sakai's sharpening traditions. Though Maruyama has since pursued his own independent work, his influence remains central to HADO’s approach.
HADO works with some of Sakai’s most respected blacksmiths—including Yoshikazu Tanaka and Satoshi Nakagawa—who forge blades from a number of premium steels as well as high-grade pre-laminated stock. These are then sharpened and finished by HADO’s in-house team, ensuring exceptional craftsmanship in consistent geometry and refined edges.
