A tea knife is a special thing, a tool crafted for a singular purpose.
We have spent the greater part of our tea journey trying to use tools we had at hand: a screwdriver, a butterknife, our own hands.Nothing really breaks up a teacake like a tea pick.
The smith is a well-crafted knife.We tend to value these single-cast pieces, as they will never quite break.Being on single piece of metal, there is a weight there that instills trust, confidence in purpose.The simple motif of bamboo smithed into the blade gives us the only ornamentation we need to remember where it comes from and what it does.
