Since 1560, Aritsugu has preserved the legacy of Japanese sword-making, maintaining its position as one of Japan’s most prestigious knife makers to this day.
Historically, their blades were so renowned for their exceptional sharpness that they were dedicated to the Japanese Emperor.

This is why world-class chefs have cherished Aritsugu for centuries.
