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 impressed with the sharpness and durability of this knife. It’s been a reliable tool for all my cooking needs. The blade is precise and handles a variety of tasks with ease, though it does require frequent sharpening to maintain its edge. The handle is well-designed and provides a secure grip, but I think it could be slightly more cushioned for better comfort during extended use. Overall, it’s a reliable knife that’s worth the investment, even if it does need a bit of upkeep.

This knife performs beautifully. It’s sharp and sturdy, and the handle is comfortable to hold, even during extended use. I’ve used it for everything from chopping vegetables to slicing through thick cuts of meat, and it has handled each task with ease. The only downside is that the blade seems to lose its edge a bit faster than expected, so it requires regular honing to stay sharp. Overall, it’s a high-quality knife that’s worth having in any kitchen, though it does require a bit of maintenance.
