Collection: Jikko

Jikko was founded in 1901 in Sakai, a city located in Osaka Prefecture. Sakai is a city well known for high quality knives, yet consistently for over 120 years, Jikko is considered one of the top knife manufacturers in Japan. To maintain its high quality standards, Jikko collaborates often with chefs throughout Japan to better understands the varying styles and demands of a variety of cuisine. Jikko knives feature a unique “Hatsuke” finish on their knives. After years of research, this method was developed to give a knife a finer angle that results in  sharper blade that can go longer between sharpening sessions.
