Home | Fukui Prefecture

Tucked into the mountainous heart of Fukui Prefecture, the Echizen region has been forging blades for over 700 years. This area is home to a tight-knit community of blacksmiths who continue to shape knives entirely by hand, preserving the ethos of Echizen Uchihamono—traditional hammer-forging techniques. Makers like Wakui and Yoshikane have helped put Echizen on the global map, crafting blades with smooth grinds, outstanding cutting performance, and a warm, rustic aesthetic.

This collection showcases the thoughtful artistry and everyday utility of Echizen-forged knives. Whether you’re drawn to classic kurouchi finishes, carbon steel edges, or the approachable feel of stainless-clad options, Fukui’s makers offer something for every style of cook. These knives are hardworking, refined, and rooted in generations of craft—making them a favorite among chefs and collectors alike.
