FAST & FREE SHIPPING

Having all our products readily available in our main knife store allows us to ship everything directly from our local inventory. As a result, you get fast and free shipping*. We even go the extra mile by offering a free tracking number with all orders!

ERGONOMIC DESIGN

Designed to provide a high level of comfort during extended usage periods. Don't be fooled by knives with badly designed handles as they can strain and tire the hand, which increases the risk for accidents.

HANMA Series
Japanese Knife Collection

The Kasutamu series consists of blades made in Japan and then hand-assembled at Kakushin's knife shop with distinctive custom handles. Every knife is a limited edition derived from Kakushin's renowned Hanma Series, featuring a stunning VG10 Stainless Steel cutting core with a Tsuchime (Hammered) and Damascus finish.

Originating from Mino-City, situated north of Osaka, these sought-after Japanese knives epitomize the highest standards of cutting perfection.
