About Sadamasa Kajiya - Opened in 1920, Sadamasa is located in the beautiful mountainous area of Chino city, Nagano. Now, the young fourth-generation Yusuke Obi forges, polishes, and sharpens the blades to perfection. His knives are beautifully polished and sharpened, starting with a thick spine that tapers to a nice thin edge. This allows them to glide through food like nothing without feeling too delicate. A nice toothy edge lets them bite into tough vegetable skins effortlessly.

These blades are forged from Aogami #2 with stainless cladding, making them high-performance but relatively low maintenance. The burnt chestnut and water buffalo horn handle is the perfect ribbon on a stunning package.
