Kei Kobayashi
Seki City in Gifu Prefecture is known for the mass production of knives, but there are very few craftsmen who specialize in sharpening.
In this environment, Kei Kobayashi, with his unique background as a self-researcher, stepped away from traditional mass production to build his own brand.
Kobayashi's knives boast unparalleled precision in their sharpening techniques. They are sharpened uniformly, resulting in beautiful blade lines. They also maintain a quality close to that of Takamura's, with no chips in the blade finish.
