Yoshimi Enju VG10 Damascus Nakiri 165mm. Yoshimi Kato makes knives for several leading brands including Masakage and Kanehiro. This new line is the first to bear his name. As always, we are very impressed with his quality of grinds, fit, and finish. The overall aesthetic appeal is quite stunning, especially in the case of this new range. They are made from VG10 steel, specifically designed and manufactured for the kitchen knife industry.
The result is a blade that is easy to use and to sharpen. It holds a sharp edge and is very durable. The edge steel is then covered in a multi-layer damascus cladding made from a soft stainless steel. These are really easy knives to maintain.
The stunning blade is matched to a nice oak wood handle in an octagonal shape.Blacksmith: Yoshimi Kato
