Despite a short history (by Japanese standard) of knife making, Sugimoto did make its name as one of the well-known knife brands in Tokyo. Being one of the pioneers of Chuka Bocho (Japanese made Chinese Cleavers), Sugimoto still produces perhaps the most professional Chinese Cleavers in the world. All Sugimoto knives are made by hand, and aimed at professional chefs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis knife is made with Japanese \u003cstrong\u003ehigh carbon steel\u003c\/strong\u003e.
