Craftsmanship is at the heart of what we do. We don’t use ready-made components, and we don’t mass-produce. 

Instead, we curate, select, and partner with artisans from Japan and Europe who take pride in their craft and create for one-in-a-lifetime kitchenware that lasts for generations. We combine their individual traditions to create unique, minimalist styles that are functional, everlasting and beautiful.

What's behind Oishya

We take inspiration from the Japanese word “oishii,” which means much more than just “delicious” – it’s a word used to describe an enjoyable experience in connection with eating or drinking. To us, Oishya means enjoying the experience of making a home-cooked meal and creating joy.

We guarantee you that each product you’ll get from us will inspire you to make mindful and delicious choices.

I love, LOVE my Sakai Kyuba knives set. My neighbours bought one a couple of months ago and each time I was visiting them, I was a little bit envious and wanted to get those knives for our household. It was my hubby's birthday last month so I purchased them for the perfect excuse 🙂 Win, win, if you ask me 🙂

Super-high quality knife with a premium. This Oishya gyuto is of really high quality. I am a perfectionist and have an eye for detail and when I inspected this knife, it did not have any defects. The details on the knife from the blade to the handle are just beautiful and clean. The VG-10 steel is easy to clean and is straight butter and glides when cutting food. One of my sharpest Japanese knives.[...]

An excellent company to deal with. Having now purchased twice from them I would recommend them to anyone looking for high quantity Japanese items . My first purchase was a Nakiri knife which is fantastic. The second purchase was a very nice magnetic knife block, which was damaged in transit but has been replaced quickly and painlessly.

Sheer pleasure: For starters, their customer service is excellent; Kamila is very considerate. Aside from the beauty of the razor-sharp Damascus steel blades, the handles are exquisite and elegant. Cutting has never before been this fun.[...]

The utensil holder that I ordered is beautiful. Shipping did take some time but was worth the wait! When I finally received the item I was honestly nervous that it looked too small but it was perfect! The craftsmanship is beautiful and well made.

The quality of these handmade knifes is fantastic!! The customer support is super quick, helpful and friendly. I really love the history of the female samurai behind the knifes. It's run by women competing in a Male dominated field. I really love to support them 🙂
