MASAMOTO LINE

Masamoto stands for classic Japanese knife culture in its most disciplined form. Our Deba and Yanagiba are single-bevel knives (for right-handed users) closely associated with Japanese sushi cuisine and still considered the benchmark for traditional Japanese cutting techniques. It is precisely this single-bevel grind that makes them a true Japanese tool and not simply a variation of Western chef's knives.

Masamoto's history dates back to the late Edo period and has been passed down through generations. This combination of history, technique, and discipline is precisely what gives the brand its special standing in professional Japanese cuisine.

Those who choose Masamoto are selecting Japanese knife tradition in its most classic and sophisticated form. Like many traditional carbon steels, this line also requires a little more care in maintenance. Yanagiba and Deba can also be ordered for left-handed users.
