Thank you very much for visiting our site.
Nalbie Blade Corporation is a blade manufacturing company with a history for over 120 years from the foundation.
I think that a blade is a tool to make people’s lives comfortable and meaningful.
Blades have been used as helpful tools in daily lives, as well as at work and industrial sites.
As times change, the blades we manufacturing and handling have changed, but we always have been supplying blades which contribute to the social lives at those times.
I believe that our blades will continue to take a place as important tools to support the culture in human society, and I will do my best to carry out our daily work all together with our whole staff.
