About

The Korean word for HONN is 혼, which means soul, and stands for the idea that the sword you use carries your earnest sincerity within.

Long ago in Korea, swords were thought to be a part of the body that great men always carried, which could lead them to victory in war. Swords or blades were also considered a spiritual symbol, as it was believed that these embed the values and the soul of its master. In fact, such an idea is still true today for chefs. HONN KNIVES embraces the legacy that a chef's soul resides in their blade, just as that of warriors in the past.Hence, chefs are empowered to create exquisite dishes with their soul transcending from knives.

HONN(혼) Knives strives to create lightweight, precise Asian-style knives that are comfortable for home and professional cooks alike.
Although heavy European kitchen knives were often used, HONN KNIVES definitely stands out in elaborating more sophisticated and professional cooking.

In HONN(혼) Knives, Our CEO has worked at several Michelin-starred and high-end restaurants in the Los Angeles area. His passion for HONN KNIVES came about after seeing many passionate cooks having no access to adequate cutlery.
