We’re pleased to announce to you Daisuke’s Damascus Stylish Gyuto Knives 210mm with special handles which are made with an inner core of Yasuki’s traditional Hagane — Shiroko / White Paper No.1 Hard Steel — supportedly by a layer of softer persistent steel for an exceptionally sharp and smooth cutting experience.
Of particular note is that he definitely applies “Warikomi” process to make any blade. The Warikomi is an ancient Japanese manufacturing process, (1)split the heated soft steel with a wedge, (2)insert the hagane steel into the soft steel bar, (3)hammer the merged steel bar to form it into a three-layered construction of steel sandwiched by the soft steel.
The stylish handle is made of Stabilized Karelian Birch Resin for beauty and durability.
