Description
I am a Wagashi Knife. I actually think quite highly of dessert, but I just can’t help but cut them down to size.
Curator’s Notes
Wagashi, or traditional Japanese confections, are often quite delicate in flavour and texture, so to cut one to share requires a thin and precise knife to keep its structure. This beautiful hand-forged knife is made with the soft and sometimes sticky texture of wagashi in mind, featuring a thin blade that makes clean and precise slices with ease. We love how the gentle curve and length of the blade cuts an elegant shape on a table setting. While the knife is often presented with dessert, we also love to use it for cheese and charcuterie when hosting friends for wine.
