Kotai : Japanese finesse, Western robustness

KOTAI knives are all handcrafted with high quality Japanese steel from Aichi. Some of their models are finished directly in Seki, Japan, the knife capital of the world. Others are assembled by their expert knifemakers in YangJiang, the cutlery capital of China for over 1500 years.

Kotai has a team of knife experts whose families have practiced the craft for generations.

The knives are made by combining traditional cutlery methods with advanced technological processes such as vacuum heat treatment and cryogenic cooling to optimize the mechanical properties of the steel.

Each KOTAI knife has undergone a rigorous quality control process and will not leave their factory until it has been manually checked by 3 different inspectors.

That's why Kotai offers a lifetime warranty if your knife does not meet your expectations.
