Kayaki Knife "Oni" [鬼]– Deba Kitchen Knife

¥260,000

A 400-year legacy, forged in silence and trusted by lords.
Kayaki knives trace their origins to the early Edo period, when master smiths began forging blades in a small coastal village of Nagasaki.
The local spring water and sacred clay used in the hardening process gave rise to blades of exceptional durability and balance.
Historically, these knives were presented to feudal lords—valued not only for their sharpness, but for their reliability in every cut.
Each blade is forged from Shirogami #2 high-carbon steel and shaped with a distinctive arch designed to fit the middle finger perfectly.
The result is a knife that feels less like a tool and more like an extension of the hand.
With proper care, a Kayaki knife can last over 50 years, aging beautifully as it continues to serve.
