KIKUICHI

Kikuichi is one of the oldest blade makers in Japan. Dating back to the 13th century, the Kikuichi brand, recognized by the Chrysanthemum symbol, has been making Samurai swords before making the switch to kitchen knives a little over a hundred years ago. The knives that they forge are known for their superior quality and have been a trusted brand for kitchen professionals. Using the same commitment to quality and craftmanship from samurai making, these kitchen knives are truly something special.
