Our workshop opened in 1938, when 1st-generation Kintaro Kato started making forged knives.

We are committed to an integrated production system. All processes are completed in our own workshop. We carefully make items one by one. In the manufacturing process, each knife is completed by repeated heating, forging, and polishing under the scrutiny of a hard, naked eye. Through this honest craftsmanship, we create cutlery that is unique and special.
