Steel so hard it can only be shaped and sharpened by hand.  An heirloom treasure for your kitchen made by master craftsmen, we bring to you not just the knives but the story of how they're made and how to use them.

Hand Forged Japanese Pruner

We obtained a few dozen of these at the same factory in Japan where our hand forged knives come from. They're not made at the same location, but the process is similar. Every tool is made of hand forged steel that's perfect for making the finest garden pruner you'll ever own. Holding it in your hand just feels like pure "quality". 9" length is just right.
