THE ORIGINS OF TUO

Since 2009, we’ve quietly shaped the art of blade-making, crafting premium knives for renowned international brands. (Yes, some of those famous names you know started with our hands behind them.) Through years of experience in a competitive industry, our knives have earned trust in kitchens worldwide, helping professional chefs and home cooks alike create with precision and passion.

At the same time, we asked ourselves a simple question: why should great steel only be available after someone else adds a 500% markup?

We didn’t like choosing between cheap tools that disappoint and overpriced “premium” brands. So in 2015, we launched TUO — knives that deliver premium performance without the premium price. Great quality doesn’t have to cost a fortune.

Materials That Matter

Same forgings, same heat-treat, same grinding lines — just a new name on the blade. No celebrity chef, no “limited edition” paint job, no mystery metal. We proudly partner with the world’s finest steel and metal manufacturers to source the highest-quality materials for our blades: Japanese AUS-10, Swedish Sandvik 14C28N, German 1.4116 — whatever the job actually needs. We buy it in mill-size coils, cut out the middlemen, and pass the savings on to you.

Built to Perform

We are an experienced team of knife makers who have won numerous international design awards, including the Blade Show and iF Design Awards. Every piece we create is born from months of dedicated development. Designers, engineers, professional chefs, and home cooks rigorously test and refine each prototype, streamlining away the unnecessary while perfecting the essential.

The result? Exceptional kitchen knives that deliver affordability, superior performance, and delicious results.

Our Philosophy

While other brands chase flashy gadgets, celebrity endorsements, or endless product lines, TUO focuses on perfecting the essential kitchen tool: the knife. We believe that great cooking starts with a great knife — and nothing more.

We deeply value every cook, professional or home enthusiast, who trusts our knives. Thank you for supporting TUO, and welcome to our family.
