Our Story
Crafting excellence, one blade at a time since 1987
A Legacy of Craftsmanship
What began as a small workshop in the heart of Japan has evolved into a curated destination for knife enthusiasts and professional chefs worldwide. Our founder, inspired by generations of master bladesmiths, set out to bridge the gap between traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern culinary needs.
Today, we partner with over 50 artisan workshops across Japan, Germany, and France, each selected for their unwavering commitment to quality and time-honored techniques. Every knife in our collection tells a story of dedication, precision, and artistry.
Our mission is simple: to connect passionate cooks with the finest blades the world has to offer, while preserving and promoting the dying art of traditional knife-making.
