The Kikuichi has a long and distinguished history. Although we have been
producing superior cutlery for more than a hundred years, the origin of our
company lies some seven hundred years ago. For most of our history, we
manufactured Samurai swords that bore the Emperor's Chrysanthemum symbol as a
mark of their excellence.
Today, our ancestor's swords are considered national treasures in Japan. Our
tradition of sword making begun so long ago it is something that the Kikuichi is
proud to carry on in the high standard of craftsmanship we apply to the cutlery
we produce today.
Unlike ordinary stainless steel knives and scissors, the sharpness of our
high-quality, handcrafted products is easily maintained. |
