Seki Kanetsugu traces its history back to the 14th century, with the forge of swordsmith Katsu Tadashi. At that time, Japan was plagued by prolonged civil wars, and the country needed weapons. A line of master swordsmiths continually passed down the secrets of their craft from generation to generation. After the ban on swords was imposed in 1869, the forge's masters, like other Japanese swordsmiths, were forced to switch to civilian production. Seki Kanetsugu Hamono Co., Ltd. was officially founded in 1918 by Matsujiro Kawamura, a descendant of Master Kanetsugu. Currently, Seki Kanetsugu produces professional kitchen knives, which are sold both domestically in Japan and successfully exported internationally.

Key features include cryogenic blade treatment (i.e., exposure to low temperatures) and the Hamaguriba lens-shaped sharpening, which produces a cutting edge highly resistant to lateral stress. The brand uses a wide range of steels for its various series, allowing it to offer knives in a variety of price ranges. Popular series of Seki Kanetsugu Japanese kitchen knives include the Zuiun and Zuiun Kiwami, Saiun, Pro S, and Pro J. Zuiun was created for the company's 100th anniversary and represents a tribute to centuries-old traditions. The blades of these knives are forged using the sanmai technique: their core is made of high-tech SPG2 powder steel, renowned for its incredible hardness. The sheaths are made of multilayered Damascus steel, creating an elegant wavy pattern. The knives are equipped with elegant wa handles and are supplied in gift wooden boxes. The Seki Kanetsugu Saiun also holds a place of honor in the brand's premium segment. Saiun blades feature VG-10 steel cores sandwiched between 33 layers of Damascus steel. The micarta handles are pleasant to the touch and highly moisture-resistant. Seki Kanetsugu Pro J kitchen knives feature blades with ZA-18 steel cores, protected by softer, yet corrosion-resistant AUS-2 steel sheaths on the sides. Distinguishing features of the Pro J series include a hammered pattern on the blade's side surface and ergonomic pakka wood handles. The Seki Kanetsugu Pro S is a hygienic series designed for professional kitchens. Its key feature is its all-stainless steel construction. The hollow handle makes the knife lightweight, well-balanced, and easy to clean—it's dishwasher safe. This series is an excellent choice not only for restaurants and catering establishments, but also for budding home cooks looking for a reliable, low-maintenance tool at an affordable price.
