Authentic Japanese Knives

We offer exclusive retail partnerships with selected stores who share our commitment to craftsmanship and quality. Ichimonji Knives is the official European distributor of Sakai Ichimonji Mitsuhide, a renowned Japanese brand trusted by Michelin-starred chefs and culinary professionals for over 70 years.
Unlike decorative knives that sacrifice performance for looks, Ichimonji prioritizes function. No excessive Damascus patterns or ornamental handles — just durable, razor-sharp blades designed to work beautifully in a kitchen.
We position our knives between accessible mid-range brands and ultra-premium lines, offering a rare blend of simplicity, quality, and longevity. Our models outperform others like Misono, Tojiro, or Miyabi in edge retention, steel hardness, and balance.

Exclusive Sharpening Service

Our professional sharpening service (Tohging) is available to your customers. In commission-based structure, we collect knives from your store and return them fully restored.

Expert Education & Support

We provide product knowledge, sharpening education, and tailored support to help you confidently sell to professionals and enthusiasts alike.
