Yoshimi Kato VG10 Nickel Damascus handmade japanese knives

Discover the superb Yoshimi Kato VG10 Nickel Damascus handcrafted Japanese knives on KnifeLeader! We're delighted to present these efficient and visually stunning kitchen knives. They combine all the qualities you'd expect from a handcrafted knife! The materials used by Yoshimi Kato San are of the highest quality. For example, the blade is cold-forged, i.e. shaped at room temperature from a single piece of steel. It contains a core of VG10, a Japanese steel with 1% carbon. This special alloy gives it the rigidity needed to withstand the rigors of sharpening, for a razor-sharp edge. This core is then surrounded by over 60 layers of damascus, a blend of softer stainless steel and nickel steel (hence the color difference). The handle of the VG10 Damascus Nickel knife is available in several options: rosewood or oval cherry, with a black or red Pakkawood bolster. The combination is perfect, and the result is highly original. For sure, you've never seen knives like Yoshimi Kato VG10 Nickel Damascus!
