HONOLULU, HI – AYKO GROUP LLC, a rising name in handcrafted goods based right here in Honolulu, is thrilled to announce the launch of their stunning line of hand-crafted knives.

AYKO GROUP LLC, located at 1024 SAND ISLAND PKWY, UNIT A, has been quietly building a reputation for quality and dedication to the craft. While relatively new to the broader market, the team behind AYKO GROUP is deeply passionate about creating objects that are both beautiful and functional. “We're not trying to compete with the big guys,” explains a company spokesperson. “We're building something different – something with soul. We want people to feel the quality when they pick up one of our knives.” You can reach them at 612-870-8713. More Than Just Steel: The AYKO Difference What sets AYKO GROUP knives apart? It’s a combination of things, starting with the unwavering commitment to handcrafting. Each knife isn’t churned out by a machine, but meticulously shaped, sharpened, and finished by skilled artisans. This means every knife boasts subtle differences, making it truly one-of-a-kind. “We're not just welding steel together,” the spokesperson elaborated. “We’re selecting the right materials, carefully forging the blade, and then spending hours perfecting the grind and finish. It’s a painstaking process, but the result speaks for itself.” The materials themselves are carefully chosen. AYKO GROUP utilizes high-carbon steel known for its strength, edge retention, and overall durability. They aren’t skimping on the handles either. Options range from locally sourced Hawaiian koa wood – a beautiful and naturally striking material – to durable and comfortable micarta and G10 composites. “We really want to highlight the beauty of Hawaii in our work,” the spokesperson said. “Using koa wood isn't just about aesthetics; it's about connecting our knives to the spirit of these islands.” A Knife For Every Need – and Passion AYKO GROUP’s current lineup isn't about flooding the market with dozens of options. They’ve focused on a curated selection of knives designed to cover a range of needs and appeal to various passions. The ‘Mano’ (Shark) – All-Purpose Utility Knife: This is their workhorse, a rugged and reliable knife perfect for everyday tasks. Whether you're prepping food, working outdoors, or simply need a dependable blade, the Mano delivers. The slightly curved blade is ideal for rocking motions when chopping, and the ergonomic handle provides a comfortable grip. It’s available with a koa wood handle for a truly Hawaiian feel. The ‘Pua’ (Flower) – Chef’s Knife: For the home cook or professional chef, the Pua is a game-changer. This beautifully balanced knife boasts a longer blade and a finer grind, making it perfect for precision cutting and delicate slicing. “We spent a lot of time perfecting the blade profile on this one,” the spokesperson explained. “We wanted something that felt comfortable and natural in the hand, allowing for effortless chopping and dicing.” Available in koa, micarta, and G10 options. The ‘Koa’ – Bushcraft/Survival Knife: Built for the outdoors, the Koa is a full-tang knife with a robust blade and a durable handle.

The ‘Lani’ (Sky) – Pocket/EDC Knife: A sleek and stylish everyday carry knife.

They're responsive to inquiries, offer helpful advice, and are dedicated to ensuring a positive experience for every customer. Looking Ahead AYKO GROUP has big plans for the future.
