Hand-wash recommended
We integrated the classic oval shape of Japanese handles into our design, but used an innovative, stain-resistant composite material in a matte finish to make ours firm and slightly grippy, for safe and confident chopping.
The perfect balance
Top-heavy knives cause hand-cramping. Our blade is a full tang: it extends into the handle, so weight is better distributed, and won’t break under pressure.
A knife is only as good as the precision of its cut. In pursuit of enduring sharpness, we were inspired by narrow-tipped Japanese knives and tested numerous angles before landing on a 13° edge.
At finishing, each knife is hand-polished, then heat-treated at 300°F before being cryogenically tempered at a well-beyond freezing -250°. This process alters the structure of the steel on a molecular level, making it harder, sharper, and more durable.
The perfect balance
Top-heavy knives cause hand-cramping. Our blade is a full tang: it extends into the handle, so weight is better distributed, and won’t break under pressure.

The 8" Knife
Kitchen confidence starts here. The 8” Knife easily tackles any task in your kitchen – from dicing vegetables to carving roasts and mincing herbs – thanks to a perfectly balanced full tang design (goodbye, hand cramping), ever-so-grippy handle and a razor sharp, high-carbon, corrosion-resistant Japanese stainless steel blade.
