From the renowned knife-making city of Seki in Gifu Prefecture, Seki Kikusui Cutlery has upheld the principles of traditional Japanese craftsmanship since 1953.

Seki Kikusui Cutlery: Forging Beauty and Functionality

Founded in 1953 in Seki City, Japan’s renowned home of swordsmithing, Seki Kikusui Cutlery has carried forward the spirit of craftsmanship for over 70 years. Guided by the belief that true sharpness and beauty belong in everyday tools, the Yoshida family continues to blend traditional forging techniques with modern precision engineering.

What began as a small workshop making fishing tools has evolved into a trusted manuacturer of agricultural blades, kitchen knives, and household cutlery, all crafted with exceptional sharpness and durability. Each blade reflects the timeless Seki philosophy — “Unbreakable, Unbendable, and Razor-Sharp.”

Today, Seki Kikusui combines the soul of the artisan with advanced manufacturing, creating knives that are both functional and beautiful. Every piece arrives in an elegant gift box, making it a perfect gift for chefs, collectors, and those who appreciate the harmony of Japanese tradition and innovation.
