Sakai Kikumori was started in 1926 by Kawamura Hamono, and has since then become known as a top brand from Sakai. They are a relatively small brand but work with some of the very best local craftsmen in Sakai such as Yoshikazu Tanaka, Satoshi Nakagawa and Keichi Fuji just to name a few.
The blacksmith Satoshi Nakagawa is a relatively young blacksmith from Sakai, who has quickly gained a reputation as one of the most talented craftsmen in the very famous city of knives. He started teaching at shiraki Hamono at 18 after years of working at a sushi restaurant Shiraki-san always came on. Nakagawa apprenticed for 8 years and then took over the forge when Shiraki retired.
Nakagawa is really skilled and recognized as he can forge everything from white to blue steel, VG stainless, Ginsan and Forge Mizu Honyaki.
