Kurosaki Knife -Ei-

Yu Kurosaki — Kurosaki Uchihamono, Echizen, Fukui

$2,500VIP Selection Price · USD

Kurosaki Knife -Ei- — the fire perfected — The blade, standing in the dark

The Story

Echizen, Fukui. A forging town where blades have been made for centuries.

Twelve years under a master. Then, in 2014, a forge of his own.

In 2019, Japan certified Yu Kurosaki as a Dento Kogeishi — a traditional craftsman recognized by the country itself. He has stood before audiences from Sweden to New York, sharpening by hand, showing rather than telling.

This Bunka carries his signature: a field of hammered facets that catch light the way water does. This is fire at its most refined — burning now, at full brightness.

Hatono & Horie Knife
-BLACK DRAGON-

Kenshiro Hatono (blade, Echizen) × Tokushi Horie (handle, Sabae)

$2,500VIP Selection Price · USD

Hatono & Horie Knife -BLACK DRAGON- — where two fires meet — The full silhouette

The Story

This blade has two makers, and it hides neither.

A blacksmith of Echizen. A carving-and-painting house of Sabae. One knife.

Kenshiro Hatono came to steel from an unlikely road — he studied education before the forge — and opened his own workshop in 2024. The handle is the work of Horie Shikko, a Sabae craft house founded in 1977, who carved its ridged black form and finished it with a gold crest at the end.

Look closely at the blade: layered steel rises through the surface in a pattern like a dragon's back. Two crafts, two towns, meeting in the dark. This is fire at the moment it touches another fire.

Nigara Knife
-AURORA BLADE-

Nigara Forging — Hirosaki, Aomori. Eighth generation.

$3,500VIP Selection Price · USD

Nigara Knife -AURORA BLADE- — the inherited fire — 270mm of inherited fire

The Story

The year is 1803. In the castle town of Hirosaki, a family begins forging for the Tsugaru clan.

Generations of swordsmiths. After the war, the same fire turned to blades for daily life.

Today the eighth generation keeps that fire lit. This sujihiki — long, slender, round-tipped — wears a Kurouchi finish: the upper half left black from the forge, the lower half polished to a mirror, and between them a boundary that moves like a wave.

You are not looking at a style. You are looking at two hundred years of the same hands, passed forward. This is fire that has been carried, unbroken, into your kitchen.
