Extremely rare piece of art handcrafted by “Damascus Artist” Shoichi Hashimoto (橋本 庄市) using Aogami #2 and Shirogami #2 carbon steel core, clad with soft iron. Hashimoto’s creativity can be seen from how he created the usual Damascus pattern by mixing two types of steels, and his attention to detail is showcased in the matching pattern on the blade and the D-shaped handle made of stabilized wood. Decorated with marble buffalo horn, three silver ginmakis and two mosaic pins, the knife is a true piece of art that the “Damascus Artist” spent months to create.

About Shoichi Hashimoto 橋本 庄市

Master Shoichi Hashimoto (橋本 庄市) is a distinguished figure in high-end Japanese knifemaking, celebrated for his skill in crafting both artistic Damascus steel and high-performance chef knives. His journey into knifemaking is rooted in a lifelong fascination with edged objects and a deep understanding of metallurgy. Unlike most of blacksmiths in Japan, master Hashimoto received higher education in a university, and discovered Damascus steel making while obtaining art degree. Hashimoto became a respected Damascus Artist in Japan, combining his art foundation with deep knowhow of metallurgy. Describing himself as a “Modelling Knifemaker,” Hashimoto approaches knife making with an artistic and sculptural sensibility. He is a one-man operation, designing, forging Damascus steel, and sharpening each blade, demonstrating his commitment to quality. His knives showcase a blend of art and function, making him sought-after by knife collectors.

Care:

Aogami #2 (Blue #2) steel and Shirogami #2 (white #2) are premium Japanese high carbon steel for knife making. Despite some corrosion resistant quality (for a carbon steel), it is not stainless, therefore you should wipe your knife dry after each use. Patina will develop over time. Rust may develop if left in prolonged contact with water or acidic food. Use a rust eraser to clean if rusts develop. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

What a find!
Color: PDRN 25%
Good stuff! My skin healed ULTRA fast with this!! I can really tell it is good stuff! Plus, it has that “bio” smell that means it’s real. The formula is a little oily as opposed to watery. Just FYI I think serum slightly thicker is better.

Oopsy Daisy, bad for not reading directions!
Color: PDRN 25%
Oops 😬, I forgot to mix this PDRN serum with my hyaluronic serum before applying on my skin. Instead I have been applying it directly on my face 2x daily. I have noticed major improvement on my skin. My skin is dewy, bright, and flawless. Fortunately, I did not experience any skin reactions the undiluted product. I will come back and stock up on these bottles to mix with hyaluronic serum for microneedling.

The Skin Regenerator Your Routine Is Missing
Color: PDRN 25%
If you've been dealing with dull, dehydrated skin or feel like your usual creams just aren't cutting it anymore, the Salmon DNA PDRN 250,000 ppm Concentrate might be the missing piece. I started using this booster three months ago, and it has genuinely transformed the texture and bounce of my skin. What problem does this solve? As we age or expose our skin to environmental stress, our natural cell regeneration slows down, leading to dullness, loss of firmness, fine lines, and a damaged moisture barrier. This PDRN concentrate essentially acts as a cellular "wake-up call." Salmon DNA shares a remarkably high biocompatibility with human skin, helping to repair DNA damage, reignite collagen production, and speed up the skin's natural healing process. Features & Benefits · Regenerative Power: Packed with 25% (250,000 ppm) PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) to repair and rejuvenate. · Wrinkle & Texture Refinement: Helps improve elasticity and reduce fine lines for smoother, more resilient skin. · Hydration & Barrier Support: Formulated with Sodium DNA and Panthenol to deeply replenish moisture and soothe sensitivity. · Booster Format: A versatile concentrate you mix with your moisturizer or serum to amplify your entire routine. · Enhanced Complex: Includes EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) and Peptides for added collagen support. Pros · ✅ High concentration of active ingredients for noticeable results. · ✅ Excellent for post-procedure skin (non-irritating after microneedling). · ✅ Improves overall skin health, not just surface appearance. · ✅ Suitable for all skin types looking for anti-aging or hydration. Cons · ❌ Texture can be sticky – it leaves a slight residue on your fingers and face that takes a few minutes to absorb. · ❌ Requires consistency – results are not instantaneous and need regular use to build. · ❌ The concept of "salmon DNA" might feel unusual to some, though it's highly effective and dermatologist-backed. Final Verdict This isn't a quick-fix product, but if you stick with it, the reward is skin that looks plumper, healthier, and more resilient. It’s like sending your skin into a repair shop. Best for anyone who has hit a plateau with their current anti-aging routine or who wants to actively strengthen their skin's foundation.

It's okay.
Color: PDRN 25%
I'm not going to say it's good I'm not going to say it's bad, I do not like the sticky feeling you have to wash your hands afterwards. And it feels sticky on your face for a while I used it about 10 minutes after microneedling my face. It did help my face feel better kind of calm it down a little bit. When I applied it it didn't burn or nothing
