Takayuki Iwai knives are made entirely by hand - they don’t use machines to mass produce as they believe that machine-made knives are less superior than those that are hand made. For Takayuki Iwai's strict standards, it is quality first.

Takayuki Iwai knives are meticulously crafted by artisans who have honed their craft for years. Each knife is made with precision and care, ensuring that every detail is perfect. Traditional methods are favored over the use of machines, as Takayuki Iwai believes that the human touch cannot be replicated by machines. According to them, machine-made knives simply cannot match the superior quality of handcrafted ones. This focus on quality is what sets Takayuki Iwai knives apart from the competition, making them a top choice for chefs and knife enthusiasts who demand the best.
