Seki, Japan
has been the center of Japanese cutlery production since the
middle of the 13th century. It was a natural choice because of
its rich resources of iron sand and charcoal and its proximity
to water all important elements in the crafting of fine
cutlery.
The techniques and skills of the ancient
swordsmiths have been passed down for centuries and continue
to develop and progress with modern technology. Seki city
remains the vibrant hub of Japanese cutlery
manufacture.
MCUSTA knives are made in Seki city,
Japan and are the pinnacle of this synthesis between
traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern cutting edge
technology.
The Mcusta design team uses the 3D.CAM
system to design new models and create protoypes. Each knife
design is then meticulously inspected and then field tested.
At this point the finest materials are chosen for durability,
function and beauty.
MCUSTA does not use the conventional
method of die stamping their blades like most mass produced
knives. Components are laser cut and C&C machined to
assure the best possible precision fit. This is am important
step in the production of a superior blade. Eack knife is then
hand assembled and hand finished and inspected by MCUSTA's
team of craftsmen.
MCUSTA knives are among the finest production
knives made anywhere in the world!!
