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.

This knife arrived in excellent condition, with the blade razor-sharp right out of the box. It has exceeded my expectations in terms of sharpness and ease of use. The handle feels sturdy and well-made, although I think it could be slightly more ergonomic for better comfort during long cooking sessions. The blade does a great job with a variety of cutting tasks, but I found that it needs regular maintenance to keep its edge. Overall, it’s a dependable knife that performs well.

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.
