Aritsugu began in 1560 as the swordsmith Fujiwara Aritsugu, and has served as smith to the Imperial Palace ever since, keeping its licences and signboard to this day. Around 1907, as Western cooking spread, the shop began making copper pots by the same hammering-out technique used for swords. Artisans still make each knife and kitchen tool by hand, and the shop sharpens and repairs its own products. The standard tsuba-less santoku knife (18 cm) costs ¥28,600; the special santoku (18 cm) costs ¥31,900.
