🔥 Brand Freakin' New! Now Availaible! More Knives Coming too!

Kikuichi's Ginsan Nashiji

The GN Series is a perfect example of the Japanese design philosophy shibui, a balance of simplicity and complexity.  Adorned with a Nashiji (pear skin) finish, the 3-layer blade with a Ginsan (Silver-3) core is thin, strong, and precise; and the octagonal burnished oak handle provides a comfortable grip.

Thin Single-Bevel and new

Mcusta Zanmai Hybrid 145mm Honesuki

This Honesuki, or traditional Japanese boning knife, while extremely versatile like a petty, really cuts to the bone - or at least dexterously around it

Meant for nimble use to debone, quarter, cut, and trim through meat and fish; you will find very few comparisons to this special piece. Its specialty profile also allows to be seconded as a great prep knife.

Look Closer

Limited Edition

Black Damascus Chef's Knife w/ Maker's Mark Bourbon Barrel Handle

Proven Bestsellers - PE Dragon Storm

The 2019 Blade Show award-winning  Storm line is our newest member of the Dragon family.

Storm effectively blends Japanese and European knife-making traditions with some contemporary innovations. This synthesis produces the acid-etched knife, which performs like a hollow-ground blade, reducing drag in use.

Simultaneously, balancing a thin blade with a full tang double cast bolster construction, each knife features a mosaic rivet on its handle. The ergonomic and durable handles are made of black G10 – making the knives dishwasher safe. The Dragon hallmark fine-grained metal, BD1N nitrogen steel, with 63 HRC Rockwell hardness delivers a razor-sharp blade with superior edge retention.

Storm is uniquely attractive, with a high quality performance and affordable selection for anybody looking for excellence on all fronts.
