-

The KAI Group was born in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, a city with over 800 years of history as the birthplace of cutlery. While inheriting the craftsmanship and spirit of manufacturing that flows through this land, it has expanded its product range around cutlery, driven by the corporate message "A refreshing taste together with our customers, KAI's wish." Manufacturer's explanation

About Kai

A manufacturer mainly selling cutlery such as razors and knives, as well as cooking utensils and cosmetic tools. The number of high-quality knives is not only popular in Japan but has become a globally renowned brand.

Inheriting the craft and spirit of legendary swords

Born from unique sword-making techniques. As beautiful as art. Breath-taking top-level sharpness.

The craftsmanship and spirit of Sekki Magoroku are inherited in modern cutlery, fused with Kai's cutting-edge technology to deliver a vivid sharpness.

Edge finishing

Sharpness or dullness is a human sensation. During manufacturing, checks of the blade tip and sharpness are performed manually at various stages.

Sekki Magoroku Ginju Hon-koh series

Steel composite material

A strong blade made by hammering soft iron into steel. Achieves the characteristics of steel's sharpness and ease of sharpening.

Buffalo horn ferrule

Using high-hardness steel with excellent wear resistance allows for a long-lasting exceptional sharpness.

Wooden handle

Handle made of natural wood that fits comfortably in the hand

Backside of the steel

Backside: The recessed part on the back of the blade is called "Urasuki" (or "Hiji").

Effects of Urasuki

By making the blade tip thinner, good sharpness can be maintained.

When sharpening the side with Urasuki, only the back pressing part can be placed on the whetstone, avoiding unnecessary grinding and enabling efficient sharpening.

Wet-type flat front edge sharpening

Finished by skilled craftsmen's manual work

Capable of delicate edge finishing with very fine whetstones.

To prevent the blade from softening due to friction heat, water is poured while sharpening. Since the blade tip angle varies by product, adjustments are required at the unit level.
