A versatile format to simplify preparations
The Wusaki Sakin universal damascus knife is positioned as an intermediate model, capable of handling a variety of tasks without having to change knives. Its 15cm size enables it to handle both precise cuts and slightly larger preparations.
It easily fits between a paring knife and a chef's knife. You can use it to carve vegetables, cut boneless cuts of meat, or prepare a variety of ingredients as your recipes progress. This multi-purpose format makes for smoother sequences, with a quick, natural grip. It comes in a storage box, ideal for protection or as a gift.
A balanced blade for a wide variety of uses
With a 15cm blade, this all-purpose knife offers a good compromise between precision and range. It enables you to work comfortably on a board while maintaining good control of your gesture.
Its core is made of 10Cr15CoMoV stainless steel, containing around 1.05% carbon. This high carbon content ensures an efficient, even cut, suitable for everyday use. The blade has a hardness of around 60 HRC, enabling it to maintain its cutting performance over time, while remaining easy to sharpen.
The blade has a damascened structure of 67 layers of stainless steel, which reinforces the whole and creates visible wavy patterns on the surface. Damascus makes the blade core more stable and resistant to micro-shocks on the board during cutting.
The knife's flat edge facilitates direct insertion into food and ensures a clean cut, suitable for a wide range of ingredients.
A handle designed for regular use
The knife's handle is made of resin injected with carbon fibers and nuggets of gold leaf. The name Sakin, which means "gold dust", refers to these visible inclusions that give the knife its identity.
Resin is a stable, moisture-resistant material. Suitable for frequent use, it protects the integrated elements while ensuring a pleasant grip. Carbon fiber reinforces the handle's structure, and the golden sheen gives it a unique appearance. Each piece has its own unique character.
The Western shape of the bevelled base ensures a natural grip and good control when cutting. The resin inserts are firmly attached to the tang by two stainless steel rivets and a central brass mosaic rivet.
A stainless steel base and bolster complete the handle to ensure optimum balance and a clean visual appearance.

How to keep your knife performing over time
Always wash your Wusaki utility knife by hand with a soft sponge and neutral soap. It is not designed to be soaked in the sink or put in the dishwasher, as this would damage it. Dry the blade immediately after cleaning to remove all traces of moisture. Use a suitable board, either wooden or synthetic, to maintain good cutting quality.
When the cutting edge becomes less effective, a pass over a sharpening stone will restore optimum cutting performance. Store your knife in its case, on a magnetic bar or in a block to avoid shocks.
A structured manufacturing approach
In Guangdong province, north of Canton, a small production unit is dedicated to the manufacture of Wusaki knives. This area has a long history of working with cutting tools, making it an ideal environment for this type of production. Wusaki relies on rigorous organization, with constant monitoring of assembly stages and careful selection of materials. This method results in knives that are consistent and suitable for regular use.
Model development is based on French manufacturing standards established for industry professionals, ensuring a clear design guideline.
