Origin of Kai knives
Each knife is made in Seki, also known as the knife city of Japan. Every day, hundreds of craftsmen work on the various collections. Every day, the artisans at Kai ensure that the knives are hand sharpened and packaged.

Maintenance Kai knives
Kai knives are made to last a lifetime. However, you must maintain them properly. Make sure to clean the knives immediately after use with lukewarm water and detergent.

To sharpen the knives it is best to go to a provisional knife sharpener. This way you can be sure that the knives are sharpened at the right angle.
