Originally founded in Hokkaido, the company relocated to Sanjo in 1961. Both Ohishi and Akifusa knives are crafted by skilled regional blacksmiths, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern steel performance. The brands feature distinct styling and material preferences, providing a range of options for knife users.
