    Questions and answers

    Is the Hanikamu set worth $549?
    If you want a matched Japanese-steel set with Damascus cladding and a gift box, $549 at Seido Knives as of November 5, 2026 is the best new price across the 2 stores listing it. Cheaper sets use softer steel and plainer handles.
    Do I need to hand wash these knives?
    Yes. Wash in warm soapy water and dry immediately. The VG-10 core is corrosion resistant, but the high-carbon Damascus layers can stain if left wet.
    Can I use these knives on bones or frozen food?
    No. At 60-62 HRC the edges are hard and thin, so they can chip. Use the boning knife for fish and poultry, and a cleaver for bones.
    Are the handles good for left-handed users?
    Yes. The handles are ambidextrous and full tang, so left- and right-handed cooks get the same grip.
    What comes in the box?
    The 7-piece set and a signature storage and gift box. The set covers chef, bread, utility, paring, nakiri and boning knives.
    When is it cheapest?
    The best new price seen is $549 at Seido Knives as of November 5, 2026. Check the price history before buying around holidays, when knife sets often get discounted.
