Purpose
All of our knives are proudly made in Japan, with materials carefully sourced and craftsmanship completed entirely within the country. We personally visit knife makers and factories and selected mid- to high-end chef knives that are not only exceptionally practical but also refined in design and beauty. These are genuine, expertly crafted Japanese knives—selected with care and confidence.
We are conveniently located in Pacifica, California, just 15 minutes from San Francisco. For those who are unable to visit in person, we also offer virtual presentations via video call, allowing you to explore the details and quality of our knives from anywhere.
Please feel free to contact us at any time to schedule a visit or virtual appointment.

Our passion for the knives
I’m Hajime Tai (田井 一), born into a 100% samurai-descended family and raised in Nagoya, Japan, about an hour from Seki, a region with over 800 years of swordsmithing history. Seki evolved into Japan’s center for industrial cutlery and now produces 50% of knives in Japan. After living in the U.S. for more than 20 years and now in San Francisco Bay Area , my passion for fishing and cooking led me to share the beauty, history, and culture of Japanese knives with chefs, collectors, and anyone who appreciates fine blades around the world.
