The blades feature a VG-MAX steel core clad with 32 layers of Damascus steel on each side (64 total), reaching a hardness of about 61 HRC. This construction provides excellent edge retention, strength and cutting precision, along with the distinctive Damascus pattern on the blade. The pakkawood handle, shaped in the traditional “D-shape”, ensures ergonomic grip, stability and good balance.

It is recommended for professional chefs and demanding cooking enthusiasts looking for high-quality knives with exceptional cutting precision and Japanese craftsmanship.
What type of use is it ideal for?
It is ideal for precise cutting tasks and daily food preparation involving fish, meat and vegetables, thanks to the thin and extremely sharp blade.
How should it be maintained?
Regular whetstone sharpening, wooden or synthetic cutting boards and hand washing with immediate drying are recommended to preserve the edge, Damascus blade and handle.
