- A TRADITION OF EXCELLENCE
-
Seki, Japan
has been the center of Japanese cutlery production since the middle
of the 13th century. It was a natural choice because of it's rich
resources of iron sand and charcoal and it's 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 prototypes. 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 blade like most mass produced knives.
Components are laser cut and C&C machined to assure the best
possible precision fit. This is an important step in the production
of a superior blade. Each 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! |
