Nigara has embraced a 350-year-old tradition while focusing on innovation rather than merely preserving the past. It embodies a spirit of evolution, consistently anticipating needs and creating unique ideas, quality, sharpness, patterns, and designs that are unprecedented. Rather than adhering strictly to traditional craftsmanship, Nigara seeks to pioneer new approaches. This commitment to progress honours the legacy of its forebears and ensures it remains relevant for future generations. Specializing in Japanese kitchen knives with single-edged blades reminiscent of swords, Nigara prioritizes exceptional sharpness derived from its heritage as swordsmiths of the Tsugaru Clan. By opting for a philosophy that prioritizes sharpness over sheer strength, Nigara distinguishes itself from Western knives and aims to inspire culinary creators across all cuisines.
