Teruyasu Fujiwara is a smith from Echizen in Fukui, renowned for the Maboroshi series – knives in Aogami Super with a mirror-polished surface that seems almost impossible to achieve in handmade production. Fujiwara combines classic Japanese smithing technique with a rare aesthetic sensibility for finish and form. The result is knives that cut with a lightness and precision that impresses even the most experienced cooks.
