This blacksmith is featured on the covers of various brochures, and consistently manufactures custom orders for a wide range of applications, including knives as return gifts for Fukui Prefecture's hometown tax donations, knives for the Fukui Central Fish Market, knives for Michelin-starred long-established Japanese restaurants, and special cutters for genuine leather products and Oboro konbu (shredded kelp).

Loved both domestically and internationally.
