Description

A prestigious heritage of craftsmanship

Immerse yourself in the exceptional world of Japanese cutlery with this top-of-the-range model forged in Sakai, the historic epicenter of Japanese knife-making. This 30 cm sakimaru knife from the Sakai TakayukiGinryu range is designed for those who demand precision, strength and aesthetics. Every stage of its manufacture is designed to deliver an exceptional cut while embodying the nobility of traditional craftsmanship.

Blade: Honyaki technique and pure performance

The 30 cm blade is made using the Honyaki technique: a rare and prestigious forging method, comparable to that used for katanas. This one-piece construction, with no assembly of layers, results in a blade of remarkable steel purity and optimum rigidity. This technique is performed by a small number of cutlery experts, and requires a meticulous, time-consuming, multi-stage tempering process.

This knife is forged from high-grade, carbon-enriched Swedish steel, giving it the chemical and mechanical density to deliver an exceptional cutting edge. With a hardness of 60HRC on the Rockwell scale, this blade offers superior edge retention, guaranteeing extended cutting precision!

The blade has been sharpened on one side only, giving it a bevelled edge. This typical sakimaru feature makes it easy to pull apart the slices of food you're cutting, facilitating the cutting process.

The mirror-polished finish enhances the blade's surface and gives it a high-end aesthetic. It also ensures a smoother glide when cutting, reducing food sticking to the blade.

Handle: balance, noble materials and ergonomics

The handle is crafted from ebony, one of the densest and most precious woods in the world. This rare wood is renowned for its extreme solidity, natural resistance to humidity and, above all, its intense, deep-black aesthetics, sometimes streaked with lighter highlights. This noble material gives your Japanese kitchen knife a unique visual and tactile presence.

To emphasize this exceptional wood, the handle is adorned with a white resin bolster and base, a deliberate contrast that adds an elegant, contemporary dimension to the overall design. This highly resistant resin protects the handle ends, reinforces the structure and limits wear over time. Two stainless steel rings add a modern touch to the overall design.

The octagonal shape is designed for a comfortable, stable grip, suitable for all hands and perfectly balanced with the 30 cm blade. The handle design guarantees extended comfort and optimum control, even during demanding use!

Last but not least, this Japanese kitchen knife comes with a black protective saya, allowing it to be safely stored while preserving its quality between uses.
