Brand Introduction:
⭕Sakai Takayuki, under Aoki Hamono Co., inherits over 600 years of Sakai blacksmithing craftsmanship. Sakai, one of Japan’s top three knife-producing regions, originally gained fame for crafting samurai swords and later developed world-class kitchen knives since the 16th century. With refined forging techniques combining soft iron and steel, Sakai Takayuki knives are extremely sharp and durable.
Their product range includes single and double bevels, Japanese and Western styles, exported to over 100 countries. The Sakai Takayuki Knife Gallery & Lounge offers visitors a deep experience of Japanese knife-making, blending art, culture, and culinary craft.
