KOTAI is an independent knifemaker, dedicated to handcrafting high-end knives for catering professionals.
Japanese knives are sharp, precise and beautiful, but also fragile and prone to rust.
Western knives are tough, durable, and stainless, but often heavy, inaccurate, and dull quickly.
Why should you choose?
Kotai bridges the gap between Asian and Western cutlery art to bring together the best of both worlds in a single hybrid design.
Light, precise and ultra-sharp like a Japanese knife;
stainless, robust and extremely durable like a German knife.

Balance at the center of the KOTAI philosophy
Weight balance
Perfectly distributed between the blade and the handle for maximum comfort and minimum fatigue, even after a 12-hour day.
Blade design balance
Its hybrid shape between Japanese and German styles allows both ultra-precise cutting and fast slicing.
Balance between tradition and modern technology
Combining the best of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and the latest steel tempering techniques to create the perfect knife.
Balance of the chemical composition of the alloy
By selecting the best Japanese steel: the high carbon content for hardness and sharpness is balanced with the ideal proportion of chromium to protect against oxidation.
