Yamato 大和川 Damascus Steel Knife Set
Shimeru presents the Yamato 大和川 Damascus Steel Knife Set, a collection that embodies the pinnacle of Japanese craftsmanship and precision. Hand-forged by a Master Blacksmith, this set combines 67 layers of finely crafted Damascus steel with luxurious sandalwood handles, offering a premium feel and unrivaled functionality in your kitchen.
Exquisite Craftsmanship: Each knife begins its journey under the strike of a belt hammer, followed by an engineering hammer used on an anvil to straighten and realign the blade, ensuring a flawless structure free from imperfections. This meticulous process culminates in a final quenching, resulting in an extraordinary hardness of 62:64 HRC. The blades are crafted to deliver the precision of a surgeon’s scalpel, with ultra-thin, light constructions that slice effortlessly while being easy to re-sharpen.
Luxurious and Functional Handles: The handles are skillfully crafted from sandalwood, known for its beauty and durability. This material not only complements the intricate Damascus steel patterns but also ensures a comfortable grip, promising finesse and control in every cut.
Complete Culinary Collection: The Yamato Knife Set offers a comprehensive range of tools to meet all your culinary needs:
Care and Maintenance: Crafted from traditional carbon steel, each blade must be washed, dried, and oiled immediately after use to prevent excessive oxidation, ensuring the longevity and performance of your investment.
Elevate your culinary experience with the Yamato 大和川 Damascus Steel Knife Set, a testament to the legacy of masterful Japanese craftsmanship, offering unmatched performance and aesthetic elegance in one luxurious package.

Okay knife, but the handle is uncomfortable for long use.
Amir Z. (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.

This knife is a solid performer. It’s sharp, well-made, and has a good weight to it, making it easy to control. 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.
