“NiNJA Cool kitchenware” was born in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, the town of cutlery.“A new form of what a knife should be”With this theme in mind, we pursue not only sharpness but also design. A design that will make you fall in love with it, yet cuts well. Moreover, that sharpness lasts a long time. This is the new shape that a knife should aim for, and we believe that it is important to create a design that will not get old because of its simplicity, and that will be loved no matter how much time passes, and we pursue this in our product development.

[Blade material]

The NiNJA blade is made of molybdenum vanadium steel, which has a long-lasting sharpness and is easy to maintain, and is coated with titanium. By applying a titanium coating, the wear resistance of the base material is improved and its sharpness lasts for a long time. It also reduces the number of resharpenings, improving maintainability.

[Vacuum hardening]

The “quenching process,'' which is an important manufacturing process, uses vacuum hardening to maintain uniform hardness of the blade.

[Blade attachment]

The blade attachment process is not done by machines, but by the hands of skilled craftsmen who carefully finish each blade one by one.

Using techniques inherited from the tradition of Seki City, a world-famous production center for knives, each knife is carefully sharpened one by one, guaranteeing high quality.
