Serious knives for people who cook like they mean it. Sharp out of the box, built to stay that way, and no two handles alike.

Each blade has a VG-10 steel core clad in 67 layers of stainless Damascus. The hard core takes a fine edge and holds it far longer than a typical kitchen knife. The hammered finish helps keep food from sticking to the blade.
Handles are stabilized wood and resin, shaped into a traditional octagonal “wa” handle. It’s light in the hand, and the balance sits forward toward the blade.
