Description

The famous Echizen Forge Smith Takeshi Saji is now 74 years old. During his long career, he has made a great and lasting impact upon the next generation of young Echizen forge smiths and craftsmen.

In recent years, a large number of young forge smiths and craftsmen have decided to work as knife makers in Echizen City (Takefu City), Fukui Prefecture. Many of them were attracted to Echizen because of the "Takefu Knife Village" cooperative, which was founded by Master Saji and several other veteran knife makers to train and support the next generation of forge smiths and craftsmen. We believe the soul, spirit and skills of these experienced forge smiths and craftsmen will continue to be handed down to these future generations of craftspeople over the coming decades, so a wide selection of unique and attractive traditional Echizen forged knives should be available for many years to come.

Recently, at the Seki Outdoor Knife Show, we met a passionate young forge smith called Mr. Nishino, who is one of Master Takeshi Saji’s apprentices.

TN-3 Custom Damascus Carving Knife &  Carving Fork Set.  Mr. Nishino is seeking own style and design of custom knife collections. This year 2024's Seki Outdoor Knife Show, we found the very interesting and gorgeous Carving Knife Set.

Custom Damascus Luxury Cooking Tools from passionate young forge-smith. The contrasting matt Gray and White Layered Damascus Carving Knife blade and Carving Fork features a core of VG-10 Stainless Steel that is clad with Nickel Damascus Stainless Steel.  We also realized, Mr. Nishino's custom handle making skills have been improved, the Desert Ironwood Handles with Abalone Inlay are beautifully hand contoured for his ideal design and shape.
