Chikugo 8″ Damascus Pattern Bread Knife パン切りナイフ
The Chikugo 筑後川 Damascus Pattern Knife Set
Our eye-catching, unique handle designs are made with a Pakkawood Handle, which is chemically stabilised. The stabilising process makes the handle, super-durable and less likely to warp or crack.
Masterfully forged from professional-grade High-Carbon Steel, the Chikugo Collection features individually forged kitchen knives that are built to last so that you never need another kitchen knife set again.
The knives are etched with a traditional Damascus pattern, paying homage to a style of knife-making whose history stretches back over 1000 years.
High-Carbon Steel, which was once the metal of choice of Japanese swordsmiths, has been exploding in popularity due to its added hardiness and sharpness, to such a degree that high-carbon steel has become the premier choice of many professional chefs.
Each Chikugo knife is carefully heat-treated and sharpened to perfection for razor-sharp cutting and extreme durability. The knives are etched with a traditional Damascus pattern, paying homage to a style of knife-making whose history stretches back over 1000 years.
The knives boast a 15° edge for superior cutting, as compared to a typical 20-25° edge found in most Western knives. You WILL feel the difference from the very first cut.

I’m very satisfied with this knife. It’s sharp, well-balanced, and makes food prep much easier. The blade is precise and cuts through ingredients cleanly, though I noticed it does require regular sharpening to maintain its edge. The handle is well-designed and comfortable, though I think it could be slightly more cushioned for better comfort during extended use. Overall, it’s a high-quality knife that performs well in the kitchen, even if it does need a bit of maintenance.

Despite this, it’s a reliable tool that has improved my cooking experience.

This knife is just what I was looking for. It’s sharp and versatile, handling everything from meat to vegetables with ease. The blade is well-crafted and offers good precision, though it does require frequent sharpening to stay in top condition. The handle is comfortable and provides a secure grip, but I think it could be slightly more ergonomic for better comfort during long cooking sessions. Despite these minor drawbacks, it’s a great knife that’s well worth the investment.
