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 using this knife daily, and it’s held up remarkably well. It’s sharp, easy to handle, and a pleasure to use. The blade is great for all sorts of tasks, from slicing vegetables to cutting through meat, though it does need to be sharpened regularly to maintain its performance. The handle is comfortable and provides a good grip, though it can get a bit slippery if my hands are wet. Overall, it’s a reliable knife that’s become an essential tool in my kitchen.

This knife performs exactly as I hoped it would. It’s sharp, easy to handle, and has a nice weight to it. The blade is well-crafted and offers good precision, though it does require regular 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.

This knife has a great feel to it. It’s well-balanced and sharp, making meal prep much easier and more enjoyable. The blade is precise and cuts through a variety of ingredients with ease, though I’ve noticed that it does require regular honing to keep its edge. The handle is comfortable, but I think it could be improved with a slightly more textured grip to prevent slipping. Despite these small issues, it’s a solid knife that I’m happy to have in my kitchen.
