Two houses we make ourselves
Our house brands.
The two lines we forge under our own roof — different in temperament, made to the same bench standard.
House brand · 01
Birch & Bevel
Our signature gyuto, made by hand on our own bench. Refined geometry, Masur birch and bog oak handles, made to be carried for a working lifetime.
House brand · 02
MCx
The collaboration line — design thinking shared with makers we admire, released in numbered runs of ten to twenty pieces.
The two Selections we curate
Performance comes first
Drawing on time in professional kitchens and direct collaboration with the makers, we ensure every piece offered here is performance-first—from the one-of-one collectible to the atelier-produced series.
Atelier Selection
Workshops & shops producing signature designs by hand — repeatable, refined, regularly available.
Collectors Selection
One-of-one works by individual makers. Each piece unique, documented, made to be kept.
From the workshops
The people behind the steel.
Every knife on this site is made by someone we can call by name. None of them make at scale.
