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:
- Yamato 6″ Filleting/Boning Knife 骨抜きナイフ: Perfect for precise cuts and filleting tasks.
- Yamato 5″ Petty Knife ペティナイフ: Ideal for intricate work and detail-oriented tasks.

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.
