Born from Tradition, Made for Modern Cuisine

Kyokokaji Shoukei, a blacksmith dedicated to time-honored craftsmanship, forged his path with the goal of crafting tools that enrich everyday life. Driven by his passion and respect for Japanese ironwork, he began his blacksmithing journey under a general toolsmith at just 19. He later trained with a master blacksmith in Kyoto, spending years perfecting his skills by studying ancient techniques and creating prototypes to fuse tradition with functional artistry. Each Kyokokaji Shoukei piece embodies his philosophy: to offer not only the beauty of craftsmanship but also the strength of a tool designed with purpose and history.
