“Ginsan(Silver Steel) is a highly refined steel for making knives, and by commercializing it, I wanted to dispel the common image that stainless steel doesn’t hold an edge”
ASAMURA
“A design that fits a knife is not immediately apparent. It is a result of trial and error. If I rush to do it I always fail I get all kinds of scratches. So there is no choice I have to be patient.“
