It is a shape that prioritizes simplicity.
The handle uses solid zelkova. We created a natural impression by focusing on refreshing colors that take advantage of the wood grain and its soft texture.

History of SEKI knives
SEKI knives are special because they follow the footsteps of the first craftsman 780 years ago. Master blacksmith Hiroshige moved to Seki from Kyushu and began making swords. The blacksmiths of Seki and the city of Seki honor Hiroshige as the founder of Seki sword forging, and the city also holds the 供養祭り (Kuyo-matsuri - memorial festival) every year on November 8.
Seki has produced many expert sculptors such as Kanemoto Magoroku (孫六兼元) and Kanesada Izumimori (和泉守兼定).
