Layered steel for precision cutting

These listings feature knives made with 67-layer Damascus steel, often utilizing a VG-10 or 10Cr15MOV steel core. This construction method creates the distinct wavy pattern on the blade surface and provides a high level of hardness for edge retention. The catalog includes standard 8 in chef knives, 7 in santokus, and specialized tools like ulu knives.

The handles in this set use durable materials such as G10, white turquoise marble, or resin. These materials are chosen to resist moisture and provide a stable grip during slicing and mincing tasks. Each blade is designed with a focus on sharpness and balance.

Damascus blade varieties in this catalog

This set focuses on high-hardness steel options that suit both professional kitchens and home enthusiasts. The listings highlight the specific layer counts and core materials used in the forging process.

Using these high-carbon listings

Review these listings if you need a blade that maintains its edge longer than standard stainless steel. The Damascus pattern is functional, reducing drag during slicing. Open the brand pages for SHAN ZU, FINTISO, or KEIZOKU to compare the specific handle ergonomics and blade geometry for your grip style.
