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 own brand, "Koutetsu."
Kotetsu is our first brand, created through a continuous pursuit of functional beauty in all aspects of material, shape, and ease of use. Aiming to create a knife that cuts as desired, Kotetsu was born as a result of thoroughly eliminating waste.
The Kotetsu Type 3 has a cutting-type appearance that is closer to that of a regular kitchen knife. Stainless steel knives are resistant to rust, and are easy to maintain and use at home, but some discerning craftsmen prefer carbon steel knives, and this is the knife for them.

What is Aogami Super Steel?
This is one of the Yasugi steels produced by Hitachi Metals. While blue paper steel and white paper steel are commonly used for blades, blue paper super steel is the most expensive and is said to be the pinnacle of steel. It is a popular steel material with excellent toughness, hardness, and wear resistance, rivaling that of high-speed stainless steel.
