MATSUKASA CENTURY,
A Flagship Forged for Generations.

百年先の台所にも、残したい旗艦の静けさ。

MATSUKASA CENTURY extends the core collection with deeper finishing, broader Damascus, and a more deliberate presentation. Where MATSUKASA is the entry into Japanese knife craftsmanship, CENTURY is its flagship statement.

The lineup focuses on three signature blades — gyuto, nakiri, and cleaver — chosen to show the most expressive faces of the Damascus pattern at flagship scale.

Three Blades, Deeper Shadows.

MATSUKASA CENTURYCENTURY GYUTO

Gyuto

牛刀

A long, sweeping chef's blade that opens the CENTURY lineup with quiet authority — built for meat, fish, and the longest cuts on the board.

"A long line carries its own dignity."

MATSUKASA CENTURYCENTURY NAKIRI

Nakiri

菜切包丁

A flagship vegetable knife with a denser Damascus pattern and a more meticulous finish — quiet on the board, decisive in the cut.

"A straight edge brings clarity to every slice."

Cleaver

中華包丁

The most expressive piece in the lineup — a broad face that lets Damascus shadows live at full scale, balanced for control rather than force.

"The breadth of the face becomes the presence of the blade."

Considered Selection

Wood grain, blade area, and box proportion are matched so the whole composition carries the same weight.

選びの深さ。

Refined Finishing

The broad blade face is polished so Damascus shadows deepen under any kitchen light.
