We endeavor to provide precise measurements and accurate photographs of our products. However, owing to the handcrafted nature of many items, slight variations may occur.

Please Note: Our Japanese knives are crafted for precision and fine slicing. They are not suitable for cutting bones, frozen foods, or other hard items. To preserve the edge, always use on soft cutting surfaces such as wood or high-quality plastic — never on glass, stone, or metal boards, which can chip or damage the blade.

OUL — Crafted in Japan, Trusted by Professionals
Rooted in the knife-making heartland of Sakai, Japan, OUL is a brand developed by Fukui Co., Ltd., a company founded in 1912 with over a century of experience in the Japanese blade industry. Launched in the 1980s, OUL brings together the expertise of respected blacksmiths, sharpening workshops, and knife factories from across Japan to create reliable, high-performance kitchen knives.

With deep ties to Sakai’s centuries-old blade-making traditions, OUL offers a wide selection of knives crafted in a variety of steels, chosen specifically for their balance of performance, durability, and value. While its premium sibling brand, HADO, has earned recognition as one of Sakai’s most refined makers, OUL remains focused on delivering exceptional quality at accessible price points.

The result is a collection of blades that are sharp, consistent, and ready to work, whether you’re on the pass, prepping for service, or cooking at home with intent. Featuring steels like SLD and Aogami Super, OUL knives are known for their excellent heat treatment, clean grinds, and professional-grade performance without the boutique price tag.
