MITSUMOTO SAKARI, an independent design and development center located in Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture, Japan, is committed to maintaining the age-old tradition of hand forging while utilizing modern, high-quality materials and state-of-the-art technology. This unique combination of Japanese hand forging techniques and advanced manufacturing processes has earned the brand recognition and praise from millions of professional chefs and home cooks around the world.

Each exquisite kitchen knife crafted by MITSUMOTO SAKARI takes at least 90 days to forge by hand, ensuring the highest level of craftsmanship. By preserving the spirit of Japanese chef knife making, the brand has successfully passed on this rich heritage to their line of premium Japanese kitchen knives.

Complementing their exceptional knives, MITSUMOTO SAKARI also offers a range of professional Japanese knife sharpening rods. Carefully crafted with a high-carbon steel core and black diamond surface, these sharpening tools are heat-treated to a hardness of 68±1 HRC, ensuring both durability and flexibility. The 10,000-grit surface allows for quick and precise sharpening, maintaining the optimal performance of your most prized knives without compromising the blade integrity.

The sharpening rods feature an ergonomically designed, octagonal sourwood handle that provides a comfortable and secure grip, minimizing wrist fatigue during use. The steel hand guard further enhances the safety and control of the sharpening process, preventing the knife from easily coming into contact with the user.

Designed to sharpen a wide variety of blades, including kitchen knives, serrated bread knives, paring knives, meat knives, scissors, butcher knives, hunting knives, grafting knives, and even lawnmower blades, these professional sharpening rods are an essential tool for both home cooks and culinary professionals.
