KAI from Seki in Japan has many decades of experience in the manufacture of cutting tools and including kitchen knives in the international top class.

KAI carries a large number of different series in different price levels and qualities.

Probably the most popular knives from KAI are called Shun, and among them the Premier and Classic series are particularly worth highlighting. These are high quality knives both in terms of cutting properties and finish.

Kitchen knives from Japanese Nenox

Nenox, also known as Nenohi, is a Japanese manufacturer of high quality kitchen knives.

Their knives are handmade by skilled craftsmen in Japan and are known for their sharp blades and beautiful designs.

Nenox knives are made of premium materials such as high-quality stainless steel and handles of noble wood or resin.

These knives are perfect for professional chefs as well as the home cook who appreciates precision and quality in their kitchen tools.

Nenox knives are known for being durable, sharp and easy to work with, making them a popular choice among chefs worldwide.

The knives from the family behind Moritaka are probably the ones whose history can be traced very far back. The story begins all the way back in the year 1293, when the master blacksmith with the apt name Kongouhyoueminamotono Moritaka forged swords for the Buddhist monk at Mt. Houman in Dazaifu, Fukuoka.

In the subsequent 13 generations, the tradition of producing swords for the monks continued, and these swords went on to acquire a rather unique status in the liberation struggle.

As time went on from weapon production, the focus shifted to the kitchen knives we know today. A knife from Moritaka is thus forged according to the traditions and with the techniques known from the iconic katanas.

Today, Hamone Moritake - the master smith at Moritaka - also occasionally forges katana swords, but the vast majority of production results in kitchen knives. A knife from Moritaka is also quite recognizable.

Most are forged in blue steel, especially often in the alloy aogami-2. The knives also have a relatively rustic appearance because the surfaces of the blades are not ground completely smooth and because all the knives receive a so-called kurouchi treatment.

This treatment is what gives the knives their dark color. It is an oil that is applied to the metal when it is hot. This also means that it is not a permanent treatment. It gets a patina, and the oil will disappear over time as you wash the knife after use.

Moritaka enjoys a special status with us, as we are very fond of the small family forges that make some things that are a little out of the ordinary.

Moritaka is also among the very sharpest knives we carry, but that also means that you, as the owner, must take particularly good care of the knife.

In general

All product photos are real photos of the specific products. However, some photos have added interiors and surroundings created using artificial intelligence to create atmosphere and put the product into context.

Regarding Woodworks

We aim to continuously expand the catalog so that sizes and designs are best illustrated in the webshop.

There are not photos of all variants and sizes, so the photo that appears when choosing a variant in the webshop mainly reflects only the type of wood - not necessarily size or other variations in the design.

NOTE that we always try to create unique wooden products with an exciting visual expression. You must therefore take our product photos as a guide and not as a guarantee of how the finished product appears in terms of year drawings and color play.
