The hardware industry that deeply roots in Banshu (Southwest of Hyogo Prefecture) since a long time ago is said that it originates from the casting of Japanese swords.
The industry began by producing razors as one of the cutlery's daily necessities, and today, various cutlery are being produced. Specifically, Banshu's production volume of grip scissors ranks first in Japan.
Please enjoy Banshu's cutlery, each completed with care through craftsmen's hand works.
First I wanted to thank you for sending my recent purchase so quickly. The mail typically moves very slowly here in Canada so I was shocked to find the package at my door just a few days after I put in the order. It was wrapped so carefully I almost didn’t want to unpack it. Even inside the container you did a wonderful job packing the smaller, more fragile items inside the larger ones. We are enjoying our new plates, mugs, scissors and rice storage box. Thanks again for making these wonderful products available to those of us who live outside Japan.
