Damascus Kitchen Knife Tokiwa-Nakiri
Exclusive Damascus knife with a purple-brown handle is the ideal combination of luxury and functionality. The blade made of Damascus steel with a sophisticated pattern provides exceptional sharpness, durability, and precision with every cut. The unique handle is made from premium materials that offer a firm and comfortable grip, while its attractive color combination gives each knife a unique character. The structure of the material alternates multiple layers of different types of steel. These layers are bonded using the method of forge welding into a single unit (in this knife, there are 67 layers). When using, please note that the knife is extremely sharp and is intended for cutting food (not frozen and not suitable for chopping food). We recommend washing the knife immediately after use, drying it, and putting it away. The advantages of knives from this series are unusual sharpness and hardness (HRC60±2). The blade is adorned with the inscription HARAHU, which confirms authenticity and outstanding quality.
Damascus steel is produced by repeatedly forging, layering, and re-forging several strips of steel with different properties, thus creating a characteristic pattern that can have dozens to hundreds of layers. Damascus steel is thanks to the grouping of materials with different properties long-lasting sharp and resistant.
The core steel is made of one of the highest-rated steels VG-10. Highly abrasion-resistant stainless steel.
Steel V Gold 10 is generally known as VG-10 or sometimes V-Kin-10 (kin is the abbreviation for "gold" in Japanese). VG-10 is a unique formulation of steel with a high carbon content and contains chromium, vanadium, molybdenum, and cobalt. The steel is specially designed for the highest quality knives used both in the kitchen and in the field. VG-10 is often referred to as "super steel" because it is designed to retain sharpness and durability without becoming brittle. Most commonly used in the production of Damascus knives. When the steel is used as a core and is layered with another type of steel, the best properties of the knives are achieved, as they are both strong, hard, sufficiently flexible, and resistant to corrosion due to the combination of two types of steel.
