Tokachi 8″ Damascus Steel Gyuto/Chef Knife  牛刀

The Tokachi トカㇷ゚チ Damascus Series Knives by Shimeru. Ergonomically designed with a new oval handle style, the combination of blue resin and burlwood, provide a professional, high level finish.

The Tokachi Collection features premium individually forged Damascus kitchen knives made of 67-layer Japanese Damascus Steel with a HRC Rating of 62 for unparalleled hardiness and performance.

33-layers of Damascus on each side surround the Japanese VG10 Steel Core. Built to last and retain sharpness so that you will never need another set of knives again. 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.

The handle is waterproof, antibacterial, heat resistant, and non-slip; it confers a firm yet comfortable grip to make your cutting, dicing, slicing, chopping as effortless as possible.

  4. Hugh J. (verified owner)

    The knife is sharp, but it’s not very durable.

  5. Archie Q. (verified owner)

    This knife has been a great tool in my kitchen. It’s sharp, well-balanced, and makes cooking more enjoyable. The blade is great for all sorts of tasks, from slicing vegetables to cutting through meat, though it does need regular sharpening to maintain its performance. The handle is comfortable, but I think it could benefit from a slightly more ergonomic design for better long-term use. Despite these minor issues, it’s a great knife that’s become an essential tool in my kitchen.

  6. Jiang A. (verified owner)

    The knife arrived faster than I expected, and it’s even more beautiful in person.

    It’s okay, but the edge dulls faster than I expected.

  10. Allen P. (verified owner)

    I couldn’t be happier with this knife; it’s fantastic.

  11. Jing G. (verified owner)

    This knife does a good job with most tasks, but it requires more frequent honing than expected.

  12. Philip F. (verified owner)

    I’ve been using this knife for a couple of months now, and it has consistently delivered clean, precise cuts. The balance of the knife is just right, making it feel natural in hand. The blade is sharp, though I noticed it requires more frequent sharpening than I expected. The craftsmanship is evident, but the handle could be slightly more comfortable for extended use. Despite this, it’s a reliable tool that has improved my cooking experience.

  13. Lewis J. (verified owner)

    I’m pleased with this knife’s quality. It’s sharp and sturdy, though the handle could be a bit more comfortable for long sessions.

  14. Cory D. (verified owner)

    Effortlessly slices through everything

  19. Lee H. (verified owner)

    A sharp and reliable knife that makes cooking more enjoyable.

  20. Gregory L. (verified owner)

    I’m happy with how this knife performs. It’s sharp, comfortable to use, and seems like it will last a long time. 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.

  21. Emmett B. (verified owner)

    I’m very happy with this knife—it’s sharp, well-balanced, and feels great in the hand.

  23. Jeffrey G. (verified owner)

    It works fine, but it feels a bit cheaply made.

  24. Oscar G. (verified owner)

    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.

  25. Bryce E. (verified owner)

    Perfectly balanced and razor-sharp. Can’t recommend enough.
