Australian Craftsmanship Meets Japanese Precision

Introducing Round 6 of our exclusive collaboration—where traditional Japanese blade-making meets refined Australian design. This limited-edition release brings together the renowned Ohishi blades by Tadafusa and the expert craftsmanship of Brook Turner, one of Australia’s most respected custom knife makers.

About the Handles

Handcrafted by Brook Turner, a skilled artisan from Sydney’s Northern Beaches, each knife features a one-of-a-kind handle made from premium timbers sourced from around the world. With a strong focus on detail, balance, and finish, Brook’s work is known for both its beauty and functionality.

Only 6 Made – Each One Unique

This is a limited batch of just six knives, each featuring a handmade Japanese blade paired with a custom handle made in Australia. No two knives are the same—crafted for chefs and collectors who value performance, design, and exclusivity.

About the Blade

Each blade is handmade in Sanjo, Japan, by the expert craftsmen at Tadafusa, who bring over 60 years of knife-making experience to every piece. The construction features a Hitachi Blue #2 high-carbon steel core, known for its razor-sharp edge and edge retention, clad in stainless steel with a traditional Nashiji (pear skin) finish.

This hybrid construction offers the best of both worlds:

• A high-performance cutting edge from the Blue #2 carbon steel core

• Stainless cladding that offers increased corrosion resistance

Over time, the core steel will naturally develop a patina, enhancing both the aesthetic and performance. While the inner core can oxidize if neglected, proper care ensures longevity and exceptional sharpness.

Brook Turner x Ohishi by Tadafusa – a perfect fusion of Japanese steel performance and Australian handle artistry, now available in extremely limited quantity.

Tadafusa are some of my favorite knives. I believe they are the best value knife on the Handmade Japanese market.
