About Our "Mizuto" Knives and Us Higuchi Co., Ltd. was founded in 1965 in Mino City, Gifu—where the clear waters of the Nagara River run through a town known for traditional washi paper.
For three generations, the Higuchi family has been dedicated to crafting knives by hand. We use a traditional water sharpening technique called 'mizuto' to create a thin, clam-shaped edge on our knives.
Even if it means reducing our production to one-third, we stay true to mizuto—our traditional hand-sharpening technique. Each knife is crafted with care, one by one, to deliver the finest Japanese quality to a diverse range of users.
