Nigara Hamono

Since being appointed by the domain of Tsugaru to make Japanese swords, Nigara Forging has a history of over 350 years. As one of the few noble swordsmiths in Japan, we have continued to preserve this art. During the Showa period, Nigara Kunitoshi, a master swordsmith, was often recognized for his work. During the period of World War II, the traditional swordsmithing technique made its impression with the military prior to and during the war, but afterwards has been realigned to creating culinary knives.
