Mcusta
Seki City is a small town located in Gifu-Prefecture in the middle of Japan and is famous worldwide for its production of fine knives like Solingen in Germany.
Fusion of precision and sophistication
The knives of MCUSTA are a product that combines precision and sophistication. Utilizing precision machine technology and hand craftsmanship this fusion is formed. Man (= person) machine (= machine) custom (= precision machining) can be said. The name MCUSTA is a fusion of man, machine, and custom.
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. They do 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 finished before being inspected by MCUSTA's team of craftsmen.

Extremely limited edition Yatagarasu MCUSTA folding knife of the Shinwa series, with Mokume blade and produced in only 100 pieces.
Yatagarasu, in Japanese culture, is a three-legged crow symbol of driving owned by the Sun goddess Amaterasu. Yatagarasu appears in ancient Japanese documents, such as Kojiki (古 事 記), in which it is also said that he fought and killed a beast intending to devour the Sun, and that he is also the protector of the emperor Jimmu.
On many occasions, in Japanese art this creature is represented with three legs, although in Kojiki it is never said that the Yatagarasu has more than two. Today, the three-legged version of the Yatagarasu is used as a symbol of the football federation of Japan.Intended use: collection
