Yoshisada

Yoshisada

Founded in Higashiyama, Kyoto in the mid-Edo period, the company's advanced blade-making techniques have been passed down from generation to generation for 360 years. Teichiro Yamaguchi, the 10th generation owner, is now one of the few Kyoto blade craftsmen.

The blades produced by Yoshisada range from those used in the kitchen at home to specialized tools used by artisans. They are made to suit the needs and purposes of each user, so they come in a wide variety of weights, hardness, and shapes. They are easy to use, fit comfortably in the hand, and can be used for a long time.
