These knives represent some of the highest level of craftsmanship and quality we have seen. The blacksmiths and sharpeners are all amazingly skilled, as can clearly be seen by simply looking at them. In fact, all of the craftsmen are certified craftsmen or dentou-kougeishi (a very prestigious honor). These knives have amazing fit and finish and spectacular grinds. We hope you guys are as excited as we are.
