DESCRIPTION
Yoshihiro Damascus:
This knife has a hammered finish with a beautiful Rosewood handle and is one of our biggest sellers.
A 45 layered knife made in Osaka by Yamawaki Cutlery Co., Ltd.
Yamawaki Cutlery Co., Ltd. has been making knives and cutlery since 1952.
I actually stumbled upon Yoshihiro knives when I was at the Japanese knife museum in Sakai.
Yamawaki has knives in the museum .
The knife factory is only a couple blocks away from the Museum.
This knife is made from VG-10 making it not just beautiful but very corrosion resistant.
This knife has a fine edge that bursts through food prep and is easy to resharpen.
A beautiful workhorse from a very renown maker in Sakai, Osaka.
Free Saya’s (knife sheath) for knife storage and protection.
*The set is made by The Blade Runner.
Leigh’s 2 cents: Anyone who knows me knows I hate damascus.
These days you see $50 junk knives with damascus cladding.
$50 knives made with cheap steel and poor heat treatment.
This isn't one of those knives.
VG-10 is a high quality steel coupled with fantastic heat treatment that holds a edge extremely well.
These knives are easy to care for and hold a great edge. If you like damascus, you'll like these.
