Brand Introduction
Ohno Knife Works was founded in 1916 in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture—known as “The City of Blades.”
Originally a small workshop producing folding knives for export, the company gradually expanded into kitchen knives, laying the foundation for its modern reputation.
In the mid-1990s, Ohno Knife shifted toward high-end “showcase” kitchen knives, internalizing over 100 production processes and breaking away from Japan’s traditional division of labor in knife manufacturing.
In 2000, Ohno Knife partnered with the renowned brand KAI to produce the premium “Shun” series for international markets.
Famous for its Damascus pattern and razor-sharp performance, the Shun series won the “Kitchen Knife of the Year” award for ten consecutive years and surpassed 10 million global sales.
Since 2010, Ohno Knife has implemented automation and manufacturing system management, combining precision machinery with artisan hand-finishing to establish a full-scale production system and expand technological innovation.
Material Introduction
SG-2 Powder Steel (also known as R2):
Chemical Composition — Carbon (C): 1.25–1.50%, Chromium (Cr): 14.0–16.0%, Molybdenum (Mo): 2.0–3.0%, Vanadium (V): 1.8–2.5%, Tungsten (W): 1.5%.
This steel offers exceptional hardness and corrosion resistance. When properly heat-treated, it reaches HRC 62–64, maintaining sharpness and wear resistance for long periods—ideal for professional chefs and knife enthusiasts.
Knife Model Introduction
The Nakiri knife is specifically designed for cutting vegetables.
Its rectangular and broad blade excels in thin slicing and clean chopping, making it one of the most practical vegetable knives for home kitchens.
