Seki, Japan has been
the center of Japanese cutlery production since the
middle of the 13th
century. It was a
natural choice because of it's rich resources of
iron sand and charcoal and it's proximity to water and all
important elements in the crafting of fine
cutlery.
The techniques and skills of the ancient swordsmiths have been passed down for centuries and continue to develop and progress with modern technology.
Seki City remains the vibrant hub of Japanese cutlery manufacture.
MCUSTA knives are made in Seki City, Japan and are the pinnacle of
this synthesis between traditional Japanese craftsmanship and
modern cutting edge technology.
The
MCUSTA design team uses the 3D.CAM system to design new models
and create prototypes. Each knife design is then meticulously
inspected and then field tested. At this point the finest
materials are chosen for durability, function and
beauty.
MCUSTA does not use the
conventional method of die stamping their blades like most
mass produced knives. Components are laser cut and
C&C machined to assure the best possible precision fit.
This is an important step in the production of a superior
blade. Each knife is then hand assembled and hand finished and
inspected by MCUSTA's team of craftsmen.
MCUSTA knives are among the finest production
knives made anywhere in the world!

Here is one of the letters from our
happy
customers:
Hello my name is Bill
Peterson and I'm writing you to let you know how pleased
I am with your knives. I have been a senior instrument
maker with the neclear physics dept. of Duke University
for 25 years now and have come to appreciate fine
craftsmanship. Your knives are certainly in that league.
I own many knives made by makers such as Boker , Buck ,
Kershaw . Gerber , Case and even an MC-7 damascus made
by Mcusta . However yesterday I bought an MC-4 Katana
made by Mcusta and was absolutely blown away by its
quality . It is so smooth yet solid at the same time. A
very beautiful piece of workmanship , congratulations to
you all. I count it as one of my finest knives. Keep up
the good work . I look forward to adding more of your
fine knives to my collection
.
Yours
Truly
Bill
Peterson
