Every spring, many customers from Germany visit Yoshida Hamono for a factory tour. At the factory, we guide them through the various processes of Japanese knife making, such as forging and grinding.
During the tour, visitors can observe the entire process of how a single knife is made, from material selection to heat treatment, grinding, and finishing. It's a valuable opportunity to directly experience the skills craftsmen have cultivated over many years and the philosophy behind Japanese knife making.
KYUSAKICHI aims not just to create sharp blades, but to achieve both excellent sharpness and long-lasting quality. We hope that by seeing the actual manufacturing site, you will gain a deeper understanding of our approach and commitment to craftsmanship.
We will continue to share Japanese blade culture, the skills of our craftsmen, and our pursuit of sharpness with people all over the world.
