Sakai Kitsuki is more than just a knife brand—it is a bridge connecting ancient and modern, East and West. Crafted by renowned makers across Japan, from the historic city of Sakai to Gifu’s Seki, Fukui’s 700-year-old Echizen tradition, and independent smiths in Fukuoka.
Every hammer strike and polish embodies passion and pursuit of perfection, allowing the world to witness the greatness of Japanese knife-forging artistry, and giving each user a sense of heritage and craftsmanship with every cut.
