Miami Watch Company brings the traditions of Japanese blade forging to the modern era with our Katana Collection, a collection dedicated to the craftsman of yesterday, made for the craftsman of today. We take inspiration from these “Heavenly Blades,” forging our watches from artesian Damascus steel, and matching them to the best blades that can be made. For the love of food, artistry, and style, MWC presents the Katana Knife & Watch Collection. (日本刀).

The forging of a Japanese blade is a sacred art, involving dozens of craftsmen carrying out millennia-old tradition. Today, that heritage lives on in modern Japanese blade-making, renowned across the world by chefs who insist on world-class cutlery. Notable among these blades is the prized “Damascus” steel, made after a laborious process of folding, heating, and hammering the steel upon itself thousands of times. This serves to remove impurities from the steel and results in a unique, mysterious blade.
