Damascus Kitchen Knife MASTERPIECE Takafumi
Handcrafted kitchen knife MASTERPIECE Takafumi. The knife is made of Damascus steel. The blade is made from layered steel composite forging. In this knife, there are 103 layers. This forging creates a unique pattern. Between these layers, there is a VG10 steel core. The knife has a hardness of 60-62 HRC, which ensures long-lasting sharpness and lifespan.
The shape of the handle ensures a comfortable and secure grip. The handle is made of ebony wood. Included in the packaging is a case made of eco leather, crafted with precision by hand.
Damascus steel is produced by repeatedly forging, layering, and re-forging several strips of steel with different properties, creating a characteristic pattern that can have dozens to hundreds of layers. Damascus steel is long-lasting sharp and durable due to the combination of materials with different properties.
The steel core is made from one of the highest-rated steels, VG-10. Highly abrasion-resistant stainless steel.
VG Gold 10 is commonly known as VG-10 or sometimes V-Kin-10 (kin is the abbreviation for "gold" in Japanese). VG-10 is a unique formulation of steel with a high carbon content and includes chromium, vanadium, molybdenum, and cobalt. The steel is specially designed for the highest quality knives used both in the kitchen and outdoors.
We recommend washing the knife immediately after use, drying it, and storing it in place.
