TOSHU kitchen knives are created using a blend of both modern and traditional Japanese ancient sword-making techniques.

TOSHU knives go through 60 individual production processes utilizing specially trained craftsmen, resulting in much higher quality than mass-produced knives.

Knives are manufactured using specialty hammering and forging techniques. Each knife is crafted using a unique hammered flame forging process. This process involves hammering and heating the material in a 1,000°C flame. All processes are designed to bring out the best properties of the metal.

TOSHU knives are hand-sharpened and double-edged. One blade edge is nearly vertically ground, and the other edge is ground to a clam shell curve. This creates a cutting edge that is thin, sharp and durable.

The unique manufacturing process results in knives that include the following special properties: outstanding hardness and sharpness with less chipping, flexibility for avoiding breakage, anti-abrasion for longer sharpness, anti-fatigue for longer life and anti-corrosion for avoiding rust.
