Jikko

Jikko is a Japanese knife brand that was established in 1901 in the city of Sakai, known for its rich tradition of knife-making. As one of the few manufacturers in the region with such a long history, Jikko has a reputation for producing some of the best knives in Japan. To ensure that their knives meet the high standards of professional chefs, Jikko consults with a wide range of culinary experts throughout Japan to get firsthand knowledge of what chefs look for and need in a high-quality knife.

One of the things that sets Jikko knives apart from those of other manufacturers in the Sakai region, and possibly all of Japan, is their “Hatsuke” finishing method. This special process gives the blades an even finer angle, making them sharper and able to remain sharp for longer. Developed after years of research, the “Hatsuke” method is designed to provide the perfect balance of sharpness and durability. Whether you’re a professional chef or a home cook, a Jikko knife is sure to become a treasured addition to your kitchen.
