History and tradition

The name Kanetsune comes from the famous swordsmith Kanetsune, who lived during the Muromachi period (14th-16th century). The company was founded to continue the heritage of traditional Japanese blacksmithing and bring its benefits to modern users.

Kanetsune Seki offers a wide range of knives and tools:

  • Kitchen Knives: Gyuto, Santoku, Nakiri, Usuba, Deba and others, designed for specific cooking tasks.
  • Damascene knives: Knives with multi-layered blades made of Damascene steel, which provides a unique look and excellent cutting properties.
  • Outdoor Knives: Knives designed for hunting, camping and other outdoor activities.

Craftsmanship and technology

The company combines traditional craftsmanship techniques with modern technology:

  • High quality materials: They use steels such as VG10, Aogami (blue paper steel) and Shirogami (white paper steel) for maximum sharpness and durability.
  • Multi-layered blades: Some knives have blades composed of 17 to 33 layers, which adds to the strength and flexibility of the knife.
  • Hand finishing: Experienced craftsmen hand sharpen and polish the blades for perfect sharpness and aesthetic appearance.

Design and ergonomics

  • Traditional handles: Made of quality woods such as magnolia or rosewood, often combined with hornwood rings.
  • Ergonomic shape: Handles are designed for a comfortable grip and easy handling.

  • Quality: High standards in craftsmanship and materials.
  • Tradition: Maintaining and promoting Japan's blacksmithing heritage.
  • Innovation: Continuous improvement in technology and design to meet the needs of modern cooks.

Knife care

To maintain the performance and durability of the knives, it is recommended to:

  • Hand washing: After use, wash the knife by hand and dry immediately.
  • Clean and dry the knives after drying them: Use sharpening stones suitable for Japanese knives.
  • Proper storage: Store knives in a safe place, ideally in a protective sheath or on a magnetic bar.
