These Haiku self-opening herb scissors take the effort out of chopping herbs. Haiku knives are the preferred choice in culinary competitions due to their lightness, symmetry and the comfort of the wooden handle. A bamboo peg ('mekugi') is inserted from the side into every Haiku knife where the tang and handle are joined for added stability. Traditional sword smiths in Japan use this time-tested technique when crafting swords like those once used by the samurai of medieval Japan.

HAIKU is the traditional knife-line by Chroma Cutlery, Inc. In Japan, the art of the sword smith has a long tradition. Today HAIKU knives are manufactured in small Japanese knife factories out of high-grade modern steel. Borrowing from an ancient method, a bamboo peg ('mekugi') is inserted from the side into every HAIKU knife where the tang and handle are joined for added stability.

To this day, traditional sword smiths in Japan use this time-tested technique when crafting swords like those once used by the samurai of medieval Japan.
