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 special version features a handle made from olive wood and resin.

 

Our own brand of knives, "Kotetsu."

Kotetsu is the first brand created by our shop, born from a continuous pursuit of functional beauty in material, form, and ease of use. Aiming for a knife that cuts exactly as you intend, we thoroughly eliminated all unnecessary elements, resulting in the birth of "Kotetsu."

The Bunka knife, like the Santoku knife, is easy to use for meat, fish, vegetables, and more, making it a versatile kitchen tool.

The steel used is SG2 powdered high-speed steel, which is rust-resistant and requires only simple maintenance.

What is SG2 powdered high-speed steel?

It is a top-grade stainless steel. Because it's made by blowing powder, its structure is uniform, achieving both extreme sharpness and long-lasting edge retention. It is rust-resistant and hygienic, so you can use it with peace of mind.
