⭕️Oono Knife was founded in 1916 in Seki City, Gifu — known as the "City of Blades" in Japan. Initially starting as a small folding knife workshop for export, the company gradually expanded into kitchen knives. In the mid-1990s, Oono Knife shifted into producing high-end “display-grade” cutlery and fully internalized over 100 production processes, breaking away from the traditional division of labor in Japan’s knife-making industry. Since 2000, they have partnered with KAI to produce the globally renowned Shun series, famous for its Damascus pattern and sharp cutting performance, winning Kitchen Knife of the Year for 10 consecutive years and surpassing 10 million units in global sales. Since 2010, Oono Knife has implemented automation alongside master craftsmanship to establish a fully integrated production system and continues to expand its technological scope.
