The Hakami Tsubaki 3-Knife Set includes three complementary sizes to handle a wide range of culinary tasks: a 9-cm paring knife, a 12-cm utility knife, and a 20-cm chef’s knife. Each blade is crafted from 67-layer Damascus steel, recognizable by its regular, wavy patterns. All three knives feature a smooth cutting edge and an oval-shaped olive wood handle.
Blades suited to every task
All three knives feature a Damascus steel blade and a smooth cutting edge. The 9m blade of the paring knifeis designed for precision tasks: peeling, cutting up fruit, removing damaged parts, or preparing small vegetables. This compact size offers good visibility of the cutting area.
With its 12-cm blade, the utility knife falls between the paring knife and the chef’s knife. It is suitable for medium-sized foods, vegetables, portions of meat, or quick cuts requiring a wider reach. Its blade profile ensures it remains easy to handle for everyday use.
The chef’s knife ’s 20-cm blade is designed for larger preparations. Its length makes it easy to slice vegetables, chop herbs, and cut pieces of meat or fish. Its smooth blade ensures even contact with food and allows for precise cutting motions.
The 67-layer Damascus steel gives each blade a distinctive look. The patterns may vary slightly from one knife to another, making each piece visually unique.
Comfortable olive wood handles
The handles are crafted from natural olive wood and feature an oval shape. Their shape naturally fits the palm of the hand and supports cutting motions without forcing the fingers into an overly rigid position. It is equally suited to a close grip, used for precise cuts, as well as the more distant grip required when using a chef’s knife.
The olive wood lends a warm appearance, marked by grain patterns that vary from handle to handle. These natural nuances give the knife an authentic character and complement the patterns of the Damascus steel. The oval handle also makes it easier to adjust your grip when switching from a fine-tuning task to a broader cut.
All three sizes feature the same handle finish. This consistency makes it easy to find your bearings in the kitchen, no matter which knife you choose. The paring knife remains easy to control, the utility knife offers a good balance between precision and versatility, while the chef’s knife features a handle suited for longer strokes.

Usage and Care Instructions
Use these knives on a wooden cutting board or a suitable synthetic surface. Avoid glass, stone, and very hard surfaces, which can dull the blade. Wash each blade by hand with a soft sponge, then dry it immediately. Do not use the blades to cut bones, frozen foods, or non-food items. Store the knives in a knife block, a protected magnetic strip, or a suitable pouch. Regular sharpening on a whetstone helps maintain cutting performance.
