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’ve been very happy with this knife. It cuts through everything with ease, whether I’m slicing tomatoes or chopping onions. The blade is sharp and precise, though I noticed that it does need to be sharpened more frequently than some of my other knives. The handle is comfortable and provides a secure grip, though it could be a little more cushioned for better comfort during long cooking sessions. Despite these minor issues, it’s a great knife that’s become a staple in my kitchen.

This knife is a great addition to my kitchen. It’s versatile and handles a variety of tasks well, from slicing meat to chopping vegetables. The sharpness of the blade is impressive, but I did notice it dulls a bit quicker than I’d like, requiring more frequent sharpening. The handle is ergonomically designed and comfortable to hold, though it can get a bit slippery when wet. Despite these minor issues, it’s a well-made knife that’s both practical and aesthetically pleasing.
