The Kajibe Story:

A Father & Son Team


Kajibe knives are hand-forged by master blacksmith Kunio Ishikawa and his son. They are located in a quaint, traditional factory in the historic knife making city of Sanjo, Japan. Master Ishikawa prefers to only use traditional Japanese steel such as White, and Blue Paper steels from Hitachi Yasuki Steel. All Kajibe knives are hand-forged in a traditional wood-fired oven and then hand polished. This technique has been passed down from father to son for many hundreds of years.

His knives are thin, light, and represent incredible value for money given the high level of finish. Shirogami Steel also offers great edge retention and are very easy to sharpen should you wish to try and sharpen your own knives with a Japanese whetstone.
