THE VERY FIRST

Kasumi was the first in the world to mass-produce kitchen knives using Damascus steel. Previously Damascus steel was exclusively used for making hunting knives.

High-Performance Steel & Blade Design

 

Kasumi knives use premium-grade Japanese steel, including Molybdenum Vanadium Steel, VG-10 Stainless Steel, and Damascus Steel, offering long-lasting sharpness, corrosion resistance, and easy maintenance.

 

Many series feature multi-layered Damascus patterns or hammered finishes, enhancing both performance and aesthetics while reducing food sticking to the blade.

Ergonomic & Elegant Handles

 

Designed for both comfort and control, Kasumi knife handles are crafted from high-quality materials such as laminated wood, cherry blossom wood, magnolia wood, and reinforced resin. These materials provide a secure grip, moisture resistance, and exceptional balance, ensuring effortless cutting and reduced hand fatigue, whether you’re a home cook or a professional chef.

It's About The Little Things

 

Each knife is meticulously finished by a skilled artisan to ensure a razor-sharp, and effortless experience.
