Kikuichi Cutlery

A reimagining of the WGAD series, now with a beautiful Mahogany handle. 

The WDT series is like a beautiful cousin to the WG series with the same warm Mahogany handle and a precision 17-layer hammered VG10 blade, this is a fantastic knife that will shine both on the board and in the block. 

Similar in weight to many German knives, WDT series is popular among people who want a Western handle and a Japanese blade. The VG10 edge is one of the best modern stainless steel due to its fine grain structure and great durability. The hammered tsuchime finish helps release food from the blade. Hand engraved with the Kikuichi chrysanthemum logo.

Kikuichi has a long and distinguished history. Although they have been producing superior cutlery for more than 1,000 years, the origin of our company lies some 700 years ago. For most of their history, they manufactured Samurai swords that bore the Emperor's Chrysanthemum symbol as a mark of their excellence. Today, Kikuichi ancestor's swords are considered national treasures in Japan.

Kikuichi's tradition of sword making began so long ago it is something that they are proud to carry on in the high standard of craftsmanship they apply to the cutlery we produce today.
