Yoshihiro Yauji was born in 1983, making him relatively young for most blacksmiths. For the past 15 years he has been a apprentice the Master Kitaoka-San. When he can find time he makes blades for his own line. Making some awesome innovate designs. We are truly honored to finally have received some of his work, as i stated before he doesn't have much time to work on his own knives as he is still Kitaoka's apprentice and works with Shibata-San on some Tinker Knives
