Sakai Takayuki 33-Layer VG10 Damascus Chef Knives with Dodecagonal Japanese Mountain Cherry Handle

We’re pleased to introduce Sakai Takayuki 33 Layered Damascus Knife Series with Dodecagonal Japanese Mountain Cherry Handle.


The blades are crafted out of a 33 layer VG10 damascus steel. These knives have a seriously sharp edge, extremely hard (hardness : 60-61 HRC), excellent edge retention and a light center balanced feel.

The handles on these knives are dodecagonal Mountain Cherry wood that recalls the images of Japanese tradition.
The brown ferrule/bolsters are set at the top and bottom for more durable and less prone to cracking compared to horn material.

Sakai Takayuki Knives has been cultivated through a long 600-year history. Each knife is hand sharpened to ensure maximum sharpness out of the box.
We highly recommend you to once experience the excellent performance and beautility of the Damascus knives.
