Made To Last — The Knives of Hinoki

The brand Hinoki may be best known for the S1 Gyuto Chefs Knife, but 24-year-old founder Hamish Grace is doing a lot more than just selling blades on the internet with this project. Behind what appears to be a sleek knife brand is actually a mission to create 30 perfect objects built to last a lifetime. Hamish talks to Maekan about the union of traditional craftsmanship and modern design, and how Hinoki is a rebellion against our disposable culture.
