Haiku (by Chroma)

Haiku-Knives

Style and manufacture

Haiku knives by Chroma are manufactured from high-grade modern steel in small family-run Japanese knife factory. All Haiku knives have a Japanese honoki wood handle with a traditional bamboo peg (called a mekugi), which is inserted where the tang and the handle join, to give added stability.

Our views and advice for buyers

An Authentic Haiku knife will bear the Haiku Falcon symbol on the blade. Beware of imitations, and only buy from a reputable dealer.
