my friends over 30 years and summarized this issue.
Annual export value is about 7,160,000,000
yen. Why is a kitchen knife( in Japanese 包丁）made in Japan
calling explosive popularity overseas?
Various
reasons are thought about, but are simply good performance in ability if they
gather it in one. In brief, it means, "It cut well and sharp ".
There is individual difference in a sense
and the standard for being sharp, and the sharpness demanded by situation and a
use changes, but it must be it that many people expect, "even the thing
which it is hard to cut is sharp without resistance slashingly".
Probably,

support just because they are excellent in the point.
It goes without saying that there is the global

restaurant and sushi shops increase abroad, the numbers of a chef crossing the

And there are

knives and Western knives, acclaimed around the world. Nurtured by the Japan's
unique culture and the culture that supports it, of course, blacksmiths,
artisans and is none other than high technology has been.
