Most knives sold on the market are “secondary bevel finished” (kobatsuke), which already cut very well.
However, with final edge sharpening (honba-tsuke), the blade achieves an even sharper, professional edge.
※Please note: Currently, final edge sharpening is only available for single-bevel knives.Double-bevel knives cannot be accepted.
◆ Damascus: +30% of retail price (Not available for some steels or types)
◆ SG2 / Blue #1 Steel: +40% of retail price (single-bevel only)

◯About Our Workshop
As the manufacturer, we make full use of our long-cultivated skills and experience.
With the flexibility only a true maker can provide, we respond to customer requests and carefully complete each step of the process.
A Japanese knife, if properly maintained, can last for over 100 years — even in everyday household use.
It can be passed down from parent to child, and from child to grandchild, carrying its sharpness and value across generations.
Delivering a knife that can be cherished as a “lifetime tool” is our mission.
We hope our knife will be more than just a tool — a true partner in your culinary journey.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
“The knives I create are not just tools — they are a reflection of my soul as a craftsman.”
