In addition to the honyaki technique, your Sakai Takayuki knife features several symbols of Japanese cutlery: it is engraved with a Shoryu (a flying Japanese dragon), it has the machi typical of the Sakai region and it is accompanied by a protective saya, similar to the scabbard on Japanese swords. The handle of this yanagiba knife is made of wenge wood with a black buffalo horn bolster for a traditional look. Add these Japanese kitchen knives to your collection!
