This is Kurotori Blacksmith
Kurotori Blacksmith has been a pillar of craftsmanship in Kochi Prefecture for 6 generations, around 150 years as of today.
Initially renowned for helping the local community by maintaining their agriculture tools and forestry blades, the smithy extended its reach by crafting kitchen knives, earning widespread acclaim.
However, this legacy was at risk when the father and eldest son could no longer sustain the business.
Faced with this looming threat, the youngest son, Hiroshi Kajihara, struggled with the weight of responsibility.
Despite witnessing the immense challenges of the blacksmithing trade from a young age, he resolved to take over and continue the family business.
Today, Kurotori Blacksmith continues to handcraft exquisite kitchen knives boasting a gleaming, mirror-like finish.
