The knives at Tadafusa are useful, orthodox knives that are designed to adapt to our everyday living.
The design with a natural and gentle impression can be used for any kind of dishes and in any kind of kitchens.
Knives are professional tools with various types, and it is often difficult to choose the right knife. Therefore, the knife shop has selected "three basic knives" that would satisfy our needs.
The handle of the knife utilizes antimicrobial carbonized wood, a material made through Tadafusa's patented special heating process. It is a non-perishable and hygienic material.
Further, since the knife is double-edged, it can be used by left-handed people as well.
All processes are performed in Sanjo City and Tsubame City, Niigata Prefecture.
Everything arrived safely and exceeded my expectations. The mill is well made and is the perfect size for morning coffee. It will be an item I will cherish for years. The knife is a second time purchase because I love it so much and everyone who uses it at my house wants one, so this time I am buying it for my mother.

Thank you very much for the amazingly fast and very careful delivery of my order. I love the Teshiozara bowls and the beautiful Tadafusa bread knife! And the Noda Horo vessels are so convenient anyway.

I look forward to using the Sawara bath chair and tub. My husband is building a Japanese bathroom, and we ordered a hinoki furo from Japan. We are excited to have the bath chair and tub made with care by the Yamaichi craftsmen! They are beautifully made.
Thank you for enriching my life every day!
