Description

With the Nanairo Green Damascus Japanese chef knife, Sakai Takayuki offers a bold, elegant and high-performance model. Its 21cm blade combines the refined aesthetics of damascus with the strength of VG10 steel, and its glossy green lacquered handle offers a modern and original touch. Manufactured in Sakai, a famous Japanese cutlery town, this knife is a concentrate of functional expertise and assertive style, designed for demanding kitchen enthusiasts.

A brilliant, formidable damascus blade

The blade core is made of Japanese VG10 steel, a high-quality stainless steel containing around 1% carbon. The alloy is renowned for its ability to maintain a sharp edge over time. The hard steel core is then wrapped in 32 alternating layers of stainless steel, forming a magnificent damascus pattern. The corrugations visible on the blade offer both mechanical protection and a unique visual effect.

The blade achieves a hardness of 60 HRC on the Rockwell scale, ensuring an excellent compromise between cutting power and ease of sharpening. Its flat cutting edge guarantees smooth, stable cutting, while preserving food texture.

The upper part of the blade is hammered, creating fine dimples that limit food adherence during cutting. The whole is enhanced by a mirror finish, which enhances the shine of the steel and makes the blade easy to clean. The result is a well-balanced, aesthetically pleasing blade that's ready for any culinary challenge.

A contemporary green handle

The handle of this Japanese chef's knife is made of ABS resin. This modern, hygienic material is highly resistant to humidity. A deep green lacquer has been applied, giving it a glossy appearance. Inspired by traditional Japanese lacquers, the result is both bold and refined.

The octagonal shape of the handle is ergonomic and comfortable for both right- and left-handed cooks. This shape promotes control and precision when cutting. The result is a perfect harmony between traditional geometry and contemporary aesthetics, the signature of Sakai Takayuki's Nanairo range.

Tips for caring for your knife

To preserve the brilliance and performance of your Sakai Takayuki damascus Japanese knife, we recommend washing it by hand only, using a soft sponge and drying immediately. It is not dishwasher-safe, nor is it intended for prolonged contact with moisture. To restore its sharpness, use a sharpening stone with a grain suitable for VG10 steel.
