Dairokuten Mao (第六天魔王), literally "Demon King of the Sixth Heaven," is a Japanese term for Mara, a Buddhist deity who embodies Temptation and hinders Enlightenment.
It's famously associated with Oda Nobunaga, a powerful 16th century Japanese daimyo, who adopted the title as a symbol of his ambition and defiance against traditional Buddhist institutions.
At Dairokuten-Maō we specialises in hand forged Japanese knives, achieving excellence with features like SanMai Shield construction and Kurouchi finishes. Our tools prioritise safety and performance, providing chefs with the cutting precision they desire. We believe that every meal deserves the best tools, and our knives ensure durability, comfort, and quality craftsmanship for every culinary task.
