Light enough not to get tired even after long use, a pattern that fits comfortably in your hand, and a refreshing sharpness. Sumikama's kitchen knife kasane is made not only as a tool but also with the feeling that it can be used in your daily life with attachment and without stress.
A tool for spending beautiful days
A kitchen knife kasane made by a long-established store with a history of over 100 years in Seki, Gifu prefecture. I'm longing for a full-fledged steel knife, but it's also difficult to maintain during busy days. I want a kitchen knife that is easy to care for and fits comfortably in the small hands of women. I shaped such an ideal.
A blade is the life of a knife. The kasane blade uses a thin blade of gold-steel high carbon stainless steel that combines the excellent sharpness of a high hardness material with rust resistance. It was ground to a thickness of 0.15 mm to 0.2 mm, which is about half the thickness of a normal kitchen knife, using the newly developed "ZERO EDGE" sharpening method of sumikama. While a normal kitchen knife will lose its sharpness due to wear, kasane will last longer due to its thin blade and low friction resistance.
There is a bulge in the middle part, and the handle that fits comfortably in your hand is made from Gifu Prefecture's beautiful natural wood “Yamazakura”. Yamazakura is a material that is suitable for kitchen knives because it is tenacious and strong, and it has high water resistance and excellent storage stability, but it is difficult to stably supply it because it is a natural tree, so it is actually used for kitchen knives. Is a rare piece of wood. It is a popular material for furniture because it has a glossy luster when polished and the cherry blossom color is beautiful, so it is difficult to obtain good materials in the market, but it is a forestry company in Gifu prefecture. With the cooperation of, we were able to use it for the handle by utilizing the raw material of chips and the thin materials that are discarded.
The kasane culture knife has a blade spanning of 16.5 cm, which is easy to handle even for women's small hands and easy to use for small cutting boards and cutting boards. Bunka knives are also called universal knives and santoku knives. With this one, it is a versatile one that can be used for a variety of ingredients from vegetables to fish to meat. The blade is made of rust-resistant stainless steel, and the handle is waterproof, so hygiene and easy daily maintenance are essential for long-term use. You can also sharpen it with a whetstone, so this is a kitchen knife that you can use as a tool to get closer to your life while maintaining regular maintenance and deepening your attachment.
Since ancient times, it has been customary in Japan to send kitchen knives for the beginning and celebration. It also means "open up anew," and is considered a good gift. Please choose it as a gift with a feeling of support for children and grandchildren who will start a new life, a celebration of marriage and a celebration of loved ones.
From Seki City, Gifu Prefecture
Sumikama, a knife maker founded in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, was founded in 1916 (5th year of Taisho). Seki City, Gifu Prefecture is located in the central and southern part of the Nagara River known for cormorant fishing in the central and southern part of Gifu Prefecture, and is known as Japan's leading knife-making city. The history of the knife industry in Seki City is as old as 780 years ago, with high quality burned clay, pine charcoal used for furnaces, high quality water, and water transport on the Nagara and Tsubo rivers. Since it had the ideal climate conditions for swordsmithing, many swordsmiths gathered all at once, and Seki's sword that "it does not bend and bends well" spread its name all over the country.
Since our founding, we have been making knives with a single focus, and have continued manufacturing mainly for professional-use knives and OEM manufacturing centered on overseas export. Focusing on new materials and new technologies as early as possible, we have always pursued "sharpness" and "functionality", and now they are shipped to 50 countries around the world and awarded to the best design at the "Ambiente" Frankfurt International Trade Fair in Germany. We have received high praise overseas as well, such as being awarded the “DESIGN PLUS” twice.
The name kasane is derived from the beautiful color scheme of Kasane in ancient Japan, and the beautiful scenery of the four seasons and the deliciousness of the dishes due to the overlapping of ingredients, the accumulation of daily time, and the reliable tools due to the overlapping of handwork. There is a desire to enrich our daily lives through various “kasakari” such as manufacturing.
