Notices

Founded in Higashiyama, Kyoto in the mid-Edo period, this versatile knife is made by Kyoto blacksmith Yoshisada, whose high level of blade-making skills has been passed down from generation to generation for 360 years.

This knife embodies the traditions and techniques of Kyoto, and is a masterpiece that brings exceptional sharpness and beauty to your daily cooking.The uneven ripples on the blade prevent ingredients from sticking to the blade, making it easy to cut.

It is rust-resistant and has excellent sharpness, allowing you to cook delicious food without losing the flavor of the ingredients. The blade length of 180mm is the most convenient size for home use.

The sharpness can be improved over and over again by sharpening.
The blade will become thinner with each sharpening, but as the steel is firmly rooted to the tip, it is a product that can be used for 20 to 30 years.

The handle is made of compressed material and is water-resistant, and the core (the metal part inside the handle) is also rust-resistant and very durable.
It is double-edged so it can also be used by left-handed people.

This craftsmanship can be used for a long time in daily life and becomes more comfortable in your hand the more you use it, so why not bring it into your own home?
