About Us Cangshan (pronounced Kang-Shan) is the name of a mountain located in southern China and is also the name of a small city where our company founder Henry Liu was born, grew up and married his high school sweetheart Mary. Eventually Henry started a kitchenware company and after 11 years it grew from 1 to over 800 people and from 5,000 sf2 to 78,000 sf2 as well as 3 manufacturing facilities. It was Henry’s vision and pursuit of excellence without compromise that allowed this amount of growth in such a short time. Business was very good and things were running very smoothly but Henry was getting restless. Henry decided he would leave the day to day operations in China and journey to the United States because he likes a challenge. He wanted to pursue the American Dream like all other American Dreamers from The Mayflower to this day. This new exploration was not as easy as Henry had imagined, even with his business experience. He always dreamed to make functional, beautiful kitchen knives with premier materials crafted by expert bladesmiths. He located the elite material manufacturers from Germany, Sweden, Japan, and the USA, but could not find the right one even after auditing 80+ bladesmiths. It seemed all of them just wanted to handle basic knives like most of the popular brands, there seemed to be no passion to create something unique. After countless efforts, and many factory visits Henry finally found a knife manufacturer located in Yangjiang China, where cutlery has been a tradition for over 1500 years. After speaking with them he found that they shared his vision and passion to create something truly different. This manufacturer already was making high end cutlery by artisans with years of experience and was selling exceptional quality knives to the European market.
Henry was ecstatic that he found someone with his same vision and spent days hanging around with the factory owner and made a long term joint-venture partnership plan with the factory. This is how Cangshan Cutlery Company was born. After two years of research, development, samples, molds, and hundreds of hours of design ideas, everything you see now is coming out, one by one from that first talk in that factory in Yangjiang China. From ideas to actual product. As a knife purveyor, Cangshan is unique in offering both Western and Japanese style and performance of products to satisfy the most discriminating members of even the world’s top chefs while at the same time never sacrificing design.
The world has already recognized the high standard of design and performance by awarding our knives with 8 Red Dot Design Awards, 7 German Design Awards, 3 A’ Design Awards, 5 Housewares Design Awards including Best in Category in 2019, 2 Gourmet Retailer Editor‘s Pick Awards, 2 Gourmet Gold Awards and 1 IDEA Finalist Award. But the most important award is the reviews and feedback from our tens of thousands of happy customers! Thank you! You have overwhelmed our team and you motivate us to keep going!
In 2018 Cangshan Cutlery and chef Thomas Keller have come together to begin a new chapter in the world of cutlery. Henry Liu’s uncompromising vision to develop the finest knives in the marketplace and chef Keller’s continuous drive for innovation has resulted in an exclusive partnership that will allow them to develop beautiful and functional knives for home cooks and professional chefs. Now Cangshan and chef Keller come together with the same ideas about premium materials, precision of craftsmanship and an eye towards design to create something truly unique in the world of cutlery. Cangshan knives are now being utilized at chef Keller’s critically acclaimed and award winning, Michelin starred restaurants.
The Cangshan logo was handwritten by Henry’s dad and it is his values and vision passed down to his son that is the real spirit of everything we do at Cangshan Cutlery Company. We always strive for Beautiful Function. cangshancutlery.com P REMIER M ATERIALS
A great knife comes from excellent materials. We use high alloy German Steel, our unique high carbon X-7 Steel, the amazing high alloy Swedish Sandvik® 14C28N Steel and Swedish DAMASTEEL® RWL34 Powder Steel.
German X50CrMov15 Steel gives an exceptional blend of hardness and durability to the edge, allowing for a precise and sharp edge without any brittleness. The steel has a hardness of 58 ±2 on the Rockwell Hardness Rating and is also highly stain resistant.
Our proprietary X-7 Steel is harder steel than German steel which means it can take a significantly sharper edge. A unique, Damascus pattern is formed in the metal from folding 67 layers of steel together. X-7 Steel has a hardness rating of 61 ±2 on the Rockwell Hardness Rating.
Swedish Sandvik® Steels in our opinion are the perfect mix of incredible hardness and durability. These steels take a phenomenally sharp edge and keep it up to 5 times longer than competing knives currently in the marketplace. That means a knife that stays sharper, longer. These steels have a hardness rating of 60 ±2 on the Rockwell Hardness Rating.
Swedish DAMASTEEL® RWL34 Powder Steel is amazing steel that is able to capitalize on the high alloy blend of metals perfectly melted together to create remarkably hard, strong and pure steel with a 61 ±2 on the Rockwell Hardness Rating. How SHARP is it? Initial Cutting Performance[ICP] is a measurement that reflects how sharp the knife’s edge is after it has been sharpened. Any score over 110 is considered excellent while a measurement under 30 is rated as very poor.

All manufacturing decisions are driven by our passion to create and share value with our customer. We constantly seek to improve our manufacturing processes and push the abilities of our bladesmiths. This dedication to quality can be seen throughout the manufacturing process, like bagging knives in plastic between manufacturing steps to ensure knife handles are not scratched or dinged before reaching the customer.
Every blade goes through our meticulous, six stage ULTRA6 heat treatment which brings out the best qualities of each steel. Heat treatment is the key to a great knife. Even slight variations of a few degrees at any point in the process can cause the knife’s hardness to vary throughout the blade. This is the reason it took 2+ years of research and development to dial in the specific heat treatment process that would ensure our knives are both hard enough to take a sharp 16 degree edge, yet durable enough to keep that sharp edge during heavy kitchen use.
Our bladesmiths are some of the highest paid in our district and we have one of the largest dedicated quality control staff in our knife district. Every knife from Cangshan is handcrafted and hand sharpened, these are real, passionate artisans creating beautiful, functional tools. How long will it stay SHARP? Total Card Cut[TCC] is a measurement that reflects how long a knife will stay sharp and resist wear through use. Scores over 550 are considered excellent while scores under 100 are rated as very poor.

101 TCC S WEDISH DAMASTEEL® RWL34 POWDER S TEEL
Powdered metallurgy had a long and fascinating history before gaining large scale acceptance in the 1900s when it became a viable means to produce tungsten filaments for light bulbs. The process allows for the creation of alloys that are impossible to create through traditional forging. Powdered metals are thoroughly blended allowing for finely tuned control of the density and properties of the subsequent alloy. The powdered metal mixture is then compressed and sintered in a controlled atmosphere. Sintering is the process where high heat is applied to the solid materials causing them to bond and form an alloy without ever becoming molten. This allows metals with high melting points to be uniformly bonded together creating alloy steels designed to exact specifications. Damasteel® RWL34 Powder Steel offers high edge strength, durability and high corrosion resistance. S WEDISH S ANDVIK® 14C28N STEEL
This exceptional high-alloy, fine grained steel is utilized in all of Cangshan’s premier knife lines. The fine grain of the material means a more stable internal structure which is why the steel is able to improve so much during heat treatment becoming hard enough to take a keen 16 degree angle without any of the brittleness common to other hard steels. This makes an incredibly sharp knife that will not chip and stays sharp longer between sharpening.
Cangshan has strategically partnered with Swedish company Sandvik, a 155 year old, 9 billion dollar company that specializes in metal cutting tooling, mining and construction solutions and advance stainless steels and special alloys. With 43,000 employees, 8000 active patents and continuous investment into R&D they have become industry leaders, dedicated to creating excellent value and effective solutions for their clients. Working with successful, premier brands has earned Sandvik a strong reputation for innovation, smart solutions and a commitment to quality. H IGH C ARBON 67 LAYERED D AMASCUS X-7 STEEL
In March of 2017 we decided to create better high carbon steel for our kitchen knives. We wanted to be able to reach the incredible hardness of Japanese VG10 steel without any of the brittleness commonly associated with high carbon steels. In the world of knives there are always trade offs, hard steels can be sharpened to more acute angles resulting in a sharper knife, but as you increase the hardness you also raise the brittleness of the blade. This means hard steels need more maintenance to ensure they do not chip or break.
High carbon steel must also be kept dry or the blade will become carbonized. While carbonization does not adversely affect the blade if the blade is not properly maintained this could lead to rusting. Many chefs constantly dry their high carbon blades throughout the food prep process. When we started creating our own high carbon steel we wanted to address these 2 issues, stain resistance and durability.
We are proud and excited to bring our high carbon 67 layer Damascus X-7 Steel to the culinary world. X-7 was our successful 7th attempt at creating steel that was able to reach a Rockwell hardness of 61 that is also stain resistant without the same brittleness found in VG10 steel. The gorgeous Damascus pattern is a perfect match for our Japanese inspired, award winning J Series knives and our Z Series knifeline. P ROFESSIONAL C ALIBER F UNCTION
At the end of the day a knife needs to perform. Every Cangshan knife proudly can do just that. The quality and craftsmanship of the knives ensure they precisely and effectively perform their cutting functions giving the user a responsive and refined tactile experience that enhances and augments their skills and process.
Every knife with plastic or metal handles is NSF approved and ready for work in commercial kitchens. The majority of our products are Prop 65 Compliant. We are dedicated to taking care of the details so professional creatives are empowered to do their best work. G OOD D ESIGN
A chef wants a connection with the tools they use to create. Some prefer a light nimble knife while others work better with a heavy, large handled knife. This is the reason we have 25 patented designs, some of which feature our unique Patented Angled Bolster that perfectly accommodates a natural, firm pinch grip.
Aesthetics must push into function. Every curve and angle is used to ensure a secure and comfortable hold on the handle. Our knives are exceptionally well balanced and every seam is flush. This means our knives feel great to grip and hold, work well for heavy kitchen use and are easy to keep clean and sanitary.
Cangshan was created from a love and passion for good design, a conversation of balance between forward thinking aesthetics that speak to the design conversations happening in the market now and the foundational, practical function needed by professional creatives. Knives are essential, so we have designed and crafted our knives with purpose and have kept them elemental in their form and function.

1022513 9in Plastic Handle Shears 34 Accessories Gorgeously grained carbonized Ashwood makes these unique and functional sheaths distinctly beautiful. Each sheath features a stunning copper toned magnet that lends a striking accent to the piece while also safely securing the knife blade during storage. The sheaths are carved from a single piece of wood and then heated to increase their durability and darken the color of the wood. This process allows the unstained wood to retain it’s natural beauty while also enhancing the durability of the whole piece. The Thomas Keller Signature Collection cutting boards are all handmade in the USA from American walnut that features a rich and exquisitely textured grain.
