Borrowing from an ancient method, a bamboo peg (''mekugi'') is inserted from the side into every Haiku knife where the tang and handle are joined for added stability. Traditional sword smiths in Japan use this time-tested technique when crafting swords like those once used by the samurai of medieval Japan. Haiku - the Japanese knife with the honoki-wood handle.

Please note the following instructions to insure the knife remains in optimal condition for years to come:

Please take special care when using them(Keep them away from children)
Never wash Haiku knives in the dishwasher, the aggressive detergents and heat damage the steel and the honoki wood
Always wash the knife in warm water and dry it by hand after every use. Such care insures life-long reliability of Haiku
Do not cut bone or another hard materials with Haiku knives. A cleaver should be used for such tasks
A Haiku knife needs to be sharpened at home to stay sharp a long time. Use the Haiku whetstone for best results; if necessary another ceramic whetstone may be used. In a desperate situation, draw the knife's edge over the bottom of an unglazed porcelain bowl to sharpen.
