Founded during the early Edo period, the Nigara family began crafting swords for the Tsugaru clan in Hirosaki, Aomori Prefecture. For over eight generations, now under the leadership of Go Yoshizawa, they have preserved and refined their traditional forging techniques, transitioning from samurai swords to high-performance kitchen cutlery celebrated worldwide.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003eThe Nigara SG Strix 180mm Santoku Knife is distinguished by its high hardness along with substantially finer grain structure and carbides.
