Since its establishment in 2013, H&K Co. Ltd has been searching for the best products that Japan has to offer. In 2019, we developed our original brand “Hatsukokoro”. The word Hatsukokoro comes from the Japanese proverb “don’t forget your original intention”.
As a result of the contracts stipulated between the brand and the blacksmiths, sometimes the identity of some of the blacksmiths remains a mystery, which makes things a little more exciting.
