Now in it’s 3rd generation, Maestro Wu knives from Kinmen, Taiwan are most famous for being made out of bombshell and artillery shell steel from the Second Taiwan Straight Crisis in 1958, and the subsequent intermittent shelling of the island with propaganda leaflet-filled shells until 1979. It is estimated that about 1 million shells in total were fired upon the island in the 21 year time span.
