Enhance your cooking with a VG-10 Japanese Santoku knife
The Sakai Takayuki Coreless Damascus Stainless Steel Knives are made of VG-10 & VG-2 Damascus steel. The combination of VG-10 & VG-2 through a proprietary rolling technique reduces the carbide size and creates an extremely hard edge, allowing for a sharper edge along with significantly better edge retention than standard VG-10 knives.
The designer handle is hand-crafted from black canvas-micarta that is also extremely durable. Combined with the full tang, this handle creates an incredibly well balanced knife with a very comfortable grip. Please do not cut bone or frozen food. It may cause the knife to chip or other damaged. No dishwasher please.
