Fujitora (Tojiro): The history of Fujitora knives began in 1955 with the development of a knife specifically for fruit made of stainless steel. At that time, stainless steel was considered less sharp compared to carbon steel. Fujitora brought a change to the market by developing high-quality yet affordable knives that are now appreciated around the world.
Outside Japan, Fujitora is better known by the name "Tojiro".
