Bring the Spirit of the Samurai to the Workplace

Japanese Quality Knives

Perfect Balance, Simple Technological Brilliance, Unparalleled Sharpness

As with the traditional samurai swordsmiths before them, OLFA knives adhere to the same principles – They are forged with the highest quality steel and materials, then finished with world class craftmanship.

Like the blades samurai used for centuries, OLFA knives are elegant in their simplicity, while underneath the surface have technical brilliance making them unparalleled in effectiveness; their superior sharpness means brute force is needless, but instead the blade does the work while the wielder purely instructs it.

Perfect Balance

OLFA knives are forged to feel like an extension of the hand, balanced with the precision of a sword. Their contoured, ergonomic handles offer unparalleled comfort, reducing fatigue and minimising slippage, even in prolonged use. Crafted from strong yet lightweight tool-grade ABS plastic, with an elastomer and glass-fibre-reinforced polypropylene grip in the X-design models, each OLFA knife is a blend of strength and elegance.

Simple Technological Brilliance

OLFA’s design exemplifies refined simplicity, marrying form with function in a way that’s both intuitive and enduring. The 59-degree cutting angle aligns perfectly with the hand’s natural position, providing precise control that feels effortless. Enhanced by an anti-rub sliding mechanism, the blade maintains its sharpness across repeated uses, while rust-resistant stainless steel and durable ABS plastic protect it from wear. The reinforced X-design grip offers shock absorbance, tensile strength, and chemical resistance, making the tool as robust as it is sleek. It’s a fusion of strength, artistry, and ergonomic mastery designed to elevate every cut.

Unparalleled Sharpness

OLFA blades are a testament to meticulous craftsmanship, forged from premium carbon steel and sharpened through a rigorous, multi-step, double-honing process. This careful attention to detail yields blades with remarkable edge retention and a legendary sharpness that lasts. For those demanding the finest precision, OLFA offers an ultra-sharp option, providing an even keener edge for intricate cuts. With OLFA, you’re equipped with a cutting instrument engineered to excel in performance and durability, embodying the brand’s commitment to excellence in every slice.
