About SHIMOMURA:
SHIMOMURA INDUSTRIAL CO., LTD. began its blacksmith business in Sanjo, one of Japan’s leading cutting tool production regions, in 1874.
They started from manufacturing agricultural tools such as sickles and hoes. They further evolved the traditional Sanjo cutting tool forging techniques and currently make culinary knives, scissors and slicers mainly out of stainless steel.

SHIMOMURA aim to deliver “sharp cutting tools” to satisfy those who cook with our tools.

SHIMOMURA INDUSTRIAL adopts in-house production. It takes up to 35 steps to create a knife, and skills of craftsmen are utilized in each process. “Wet grinding” is a sharpening process that directly influences the sharpness of the knife and requires the most skills.
The blades are sharpened while water is poured to create an edge called “hamaguri” (blade with a cross-section that resembles a clam). The blades sharpened to a beautiful mirror-finish can cut food effortlessly and maintain their sharpness longer than regular knives.
