Kamikoto Kanpeki Knife Set

Introduction to the Kamikoto Kanpeki Knife Set

The Kamikoto Kanpeki Knife Set embodies over a thousand years of Japanese craftsmanship, resulting in a final form of exceptional quality. Each blade is meticulously handcrafted using high-quality steel from Honshu, Japan, known for its high corrosion resistance and durability. To ensure the knives meet Kamikoto's high standards, they undergo rigorous quality testing. The set includes a 7-inch Nakiri vegetable knife, an 8.5-inch slicing knife, and a 5-inch utility knife, each precision balanced and weighted for optimal performance. The blades are carefully tapered on one side and hollow ground on the other, with both the handle and blade finished to a subtle, yet stunning luster.

The Kanpeki Knife Set is presented in a natural-colored ash wood box for safe storage. The set is the result of the expertise and tradition passed down through generations in the Yamamoto family, who have been master knifesmiths since 1908. This legacy is a testament to the family's dedication to the craft and their commitment to keeping the ancient tradition alive.

Kamikoto takes pride in not only the quality of its products but also the service it provides. The company places a strong emphasis on meeting the needs of its clients with the same attention to detail and care found in its craftsmanship. This commitment reflects the Japanese spirit of omotenashi, or selfless hospitality.

The steel used in the Kamikoto knives is sourced from select steel mills on Honshu island, drawing on a tradition of metal craft that has evolved and refined over centuries. The artistry involved in the making of a single knife is a testament to Japan’s centuries-old legacy, resulting in exceptional quality and enduring beauty. Each knife comes with a certificate of authenticity and is presented in a natural ash wood box for safekeeping.

Kamikoto's dedication to using high-quality materials from reputable Japanese steel mills reflects the company's commitment to upholding tradition while adapting to a changing world. The result is a collection of knives that embody exceptional quality and solemn beauty, each a testament to the skill and spirit of the craftsman behind it.
