The Sakai Takayuki Zangetsu Series is crafted with precision by skilled artisans in Sakai. They feature a unique arched blade. Each knife in this series is forged and honed individually, ensuring exceptional quality and performance.
These knives are made from Ginsan (Silver Paper No.3) Steel by the renowned Japanese steel manufacturer Hitachi. This special stainless steel offers the sharpness and edge retention of carbon steel while providing rust resistance. Experience the perfect balance of sharpness, smooth handling, and unmatched durability, refined through a rich history of Japanese craftsmanship. The blade's stylish arch draws inspiration from traditional Japanese swords.
The handle, made from premium wenge wood, is designed in a Japanese-style octagonal shape for a comfortable grip. Equipped with a buffalo horn tsuba, or ferrule, the handle combines elegance and resilience, ideal for professional use. Please note that the natural buffalo horn may vary in color from the image.
We highly recommend the Zangetsu series for professional chefs looking to elevate their culinary skills and for those seeking a sophisticated gift.Maker: Aoki Hamono
