Description

A beautiful knife that blends innovative materials and timeless design for a sleek aesthetic and exceptional performance. Exceptionally sharp blade featuring elegant 67-layer Damascus steel. The full-tang blade, forged from proprietary X-7 steel, is seamlessly balanced by the G-10 fiberglass handle, secured with a distinctive single mosaic rivet. Every knife comes with a rich gray wood magnetic Saya-style sheath, perfectly shaped to protect its unique blade.

The sashimi knife has a long, narrow blade, similar to those traditionally used in Japanese cuisine to prepare sashimi or sushi. However, this blade shape also lends itself to delicate carving tasks, such as thinly slicing beef, poultry, or cooked fish prior to plating. The 10-inch blade is long enough to slice most fish and other meats but is still a nimble extension of the hand.

    Very sharp for manufacture

    I am very happy with a knife other than the handle that is a little pointy and sometimes jabs my hand. I am very happy with this knife.

    Very happy with knife

    The knife was very sharp from the manufacturer. I do like the knife, I’m not sure about the handle at the end of the handle. It’s a little pointing, and sometimes it jabs my hand, but other than that, I do like the knife.

    Amazing knife.

    Love the Damascus steel. Beautiful and super sharp. Handle is comfortable and the tip is precise. Buy it now while it’s still on sale. Great addition to my collection.

    Beautiful and sharp!

    Super pretty in the box. The magnetic cover is actually nice and not flimsy. This cut through carrot with almost no pressure and was easy to use. I find 8" knives to be too unwieldy so this size is perfect for me. Zero regrets on this splurge!
