What is Kotetsu?

The name "Koutetsu" comes from the name of a warship called "Koutetsukan," which is covered entirely in armor. In Japan, it refers to a real warship also known as "Toushin."

The design of Kotetsu is the result of pursuing everything that is desired in a knife.
It wasn't originally created with the image of an ironclad warship in mind. The shape allows pressure to be distributed evenly from the base to the tip of the blade, the desired movement is transmitted to the tip of the blade, the feeling of placing your index finger on the ridge, and the familiar feeling when holding the handle. After repeated adjustments, this shape was finally determined to be what was desired for a knife.

Please try out the sharpness of the Kotetsu knife, which can easily cut through paper and tough raw carrots.

Product outline

This is a knife from our in-house brand, "Koutetsu".

Koutetsu is our shop's first completed brand, born from a continuous pursuit of functional beauty in materials, shape, and ease of use. By thoroughly eliminating unnecessary elements to create a knife that cuts exactly as desired, "Koutetsu" was born.

Also known as a paring knife, it is ideal not only for cutting fruit and vegetables, but also for mincing and decorative cutting. It is a highly convenient and easy-to-handle knife for trimming meat and cleaning small fish.

Because the blade uses SG2 powder high-speed steel, it is highly rust-resistant and requires only simple maintenance.

What is SG2 Powder High-Speed Steel?

It is a premium stainless steel alloy. Because it is made by spraying and sintering powder, its structure is uniform, enabling a sharp edge and long-lasting sharpness. It is rust-resistant and hygienic, so you can use it with peace of mind.
