Takeshi Saji
Founded in 1916, the workshop is known as a pioneer of Japanese-style knives that utilize traditional techniques, and has many fans both in Japan and overseas who are captivated by the unique texture of its knives.
This blacksmith is known for "creating fun and interesting products," and their story begins with the owner himself traveling to exhibitions and overseas to gain new inspiration and continue to innovate every day.
He is especially known for creating unusual patterns. For example, he has created an original design in which pine cones are enclosed in acrylic and the cross section of the cones is used as a pattern. These designs are unique and based on intuition, yet they are developed as a series.
He also enjoys taking on new challenges, saying, "I'll try this next!" This attitude attracts many people. Originally a hatchet smith, the blades he makes are thick and suitable for heavy-duty use. They are perfect for those who like sturdy, powerful blades.
When viewed from overseas, his work has a unique appeal and many people find it interesting.
