    Ebony Nenox Style WA Handle for Gyuto / Yanagiba

    lassic ebony is cherished for its dense, oily properties that lend it a uniquely attractive luster, making it highly desirable among enthusiasts. Long regarded as one of the most premium timbers for handle-making, ebony adds a sophisticated touch to any knife. Inspired by the acclaimed Nenox Western handle, this Wa-style design showcases a distinctive curved rear end, blending visual elegance with ergonomic comfort, perfectly suited for traditional Japanese knives.

    Japanese Knife Handle Removal

    We often need to remove the handle from a traditional Japanese kitchen knife (comes with a WA handle).
    Usually there are two ways of doing so:
    1. Knocking the handle off the knife, applies to handles that are burnt-in the knife. Typically a ho-wood handle.
    2. Heading the knife at 80 Celsius / 180 Farenthide, between 10 to 20 minutes, and pull the handle away from the knife. This method applies to knives with handles glued in using hot melt glue (Epoxyed handles do not apply). Many hardwood handles in Japan uses hot melt glue
