With the Nanairo Blue Damascus Japanese chef knife, Sakai Takayuki offers a model that is both aesthetically pleasing and effective. Its 21cm blade, crafted in brilliant damascus, is combined with a bright blue lacquered handle to create a knife that's as pleasing to handle as it is to look at. Designed in Sakai, Japan's historic cutlery town, it combines traditional shapes with modern materials to meet the demands of contemporary cooks.
The heart of the blade is made of Japanese VG10 steel, a top-of-the-range stainless alloy containing around 1% carbon. This steel is renowned for its resistance to corrosion and its ability to maintain a sharp edge for a long time.
The core is then covered with 32 layers of stainless steel, forming a unique wavy damascus pattern. In addition to giving the blade a unique look, the damascus protects the core and adds a little flexibility.
The blade achieves a Rockwell hardness of 60 HRC, an excellent balance between cutting performance and ease of maintenance. Its flat cutting edge ensures clean, even and precise cutting without crushing the food.
The upper part of the blade is hammered, creating small dimples that limit the adherence of food during cutting. Finally, the mirror finish enhances the overall effect, while providing additional protection. This knife is a reliable and elegant ally for your everyday cutting needs.
The handle of the Sakai Takayuki 21cm chef's knife is made of ABS resin, a solid, hygienic and moisture-resistant material, ideal for regular use. It is coated with a glossy blue lacquer inspired by traditional Japanese finishes(urushi), giving the knife a modern yet refined look.
Cut in an octagonal shape, it offers an ambidextrous, stable and comfortable grip. The knife is equally suited to professional and enthusiastic cooks. Its ergonomic shape allows you to master every gesture with complete confidence.
This combination of tradition and visual boldness characterizes the Nanairo series: a range that combines assertive style with functional performance.
This knife should be washed by hand only, using a soft sponge and non-abrasive soap. Dry immediately after use and after cleaning. Store it in its case, on a magnetic bar or in a block when not in use. To preserve its sharpness, use a sharpening stone with a grain suitable for VG10 steel.
Based in Sakai, near Osaka, Sakai Takayuki continues the centuries-old local cutlery tradition. It combines large-scale manufacturing experience with innovative materials, to bring you reliable, elegant knives built to last. The Nanairo series, with its bright colors and damascened blades, perfectly illustrates this fusion of Japanese heritage and culinary modernity.
