The Way of the Togiya

In Japan, the sharpener (Togiya) is as respected as the blacksmith. While the smith gives the blade its soul, the sharpener gives it its voice.

TOGIYA was founded in Miami with a singular mission: to bring this level of reverence and precision to the local culinary scene. We believe that a sharp knife is not just a tool, but an extension of the chef's hand and intent.

We reject the modern convenience of belt grinders that overheat steel. We embrace the slow, meditative, and superior process of water stones. It is a labor of love, patience, and physics.
