The maker of the Jin knives was born in Tokyo before World War II and began making knives early on in his life. We met with him some years ago, during our first business trip to Japan. After a very nice meeting with him, we were lucky enough to be allowed to carry his knives. At the time we met him, he was already retired, so his knives are all new old stock
