Cangshan (pronounced Kang-Shan) is the name of a mountain located in southern China and is also the name of a small city where our company founder Henry Liu was born. Eventually, Henry started a kitchenware company and after 11 years it grew from 1 to over 800 people and from 5,000 sf2 to 78,000 sf2 as well as 3 manufacturing facilities. It was Henry’s vision and the pursuit of excellence without compromise that allowed this amount of growth in such a short time.

Henry decided he would leave the day to day operations in China and journey to the United States because he likes a challenge. He wanted to pursue the American Dream like all other American Dreamers from The Mayﬂower to this day. He located the elite material manufacturers from Germany, Sweden, Japan, and the USA, but could not ﬁnd the right one even after auditing 80+ knifemakers. It seemed all of them just wanted to handle basic knives like most of the popular brands, there seemed to be no passion to create something unique.

Yangjiang China, where cutlery has been a tradition for over 1500 years and is where Henry found a common connection of people who envisioned knives as a passion and made a long-term joint-venture partnership plan with the factory. This is how Cangshan Cutlery Company was born.

Cangshan is unique in offering both Western and Japanese style and performance of products to satisfy the most discriminating members of even the world’s top chefs while at the same time never sacriﬁcing design.

The world has already recognized the high standard of design and performance by awarding our knives with two Red Dot 2016 Design Awards,  four Red Dot 2017 Design Awards, three A’ 2017 Design Awards, two 2017 Housewares Design Finalist Awards, an IDEA 2017 Design Finalist Award, a Gourmet Gold Award, Gourmet Retailer Editors Choice and 4 German Design 2018 Awards . But the most important award is the reviews and feedback from our thousands of happy customers!
