With the knives included in this set, the preparation of your daily meals will be easier and more pleasant. They are indispensable in every kitchen as they can help you to cut a vastly varied selection of foods (fruits, vegetables, meats, etc...).

Find out below what make these knives so special:

The blade

With a Japanese VG10 steel core (1% of carbon content), the blade has a hardness level of 60 HRC in the Rockwell scale. Such level of hardness prevents you from having to sharpen the blade so frequently. The VG10 steel is indeed highly appreciated by cooks around the world thanks to its capacity of remaining sharp.

Around the core, there are 67 layers of damask steel. The combination of different layers of steel (otherwise known as the damask or damascus method) around a core whilst alternating between hard and soft steel gives the blade an original look by creating unique patterns on its surface. The different layers also help the blade to have an optimal balance between hardness and flexibility.

The look of the blade is also enhanced by its hammered surface. In fact, it has been hammered with a press, and this creates patterns on the surface that are unique to each single knife. However, getting a good look is not its only purpose. In fact, the hammered surface also increases the blade's non-stick capacity (in the case of the santoku knife: the "dimples" on the blade's edge also help to reduce the blade's sticikiness).

Wusaki Damas VG10 knives

The surface of the blade has also been polished to get a mirror-effect that ends up adding still more cachet to the knife's appearance. This comes with a double advantage because the polished surface not only plays an aesthetic role but it also increases the blade's resistance to corrosion because it flattens the surface thus making it less porous. 

Moreover, the V-shaped edge allows you to penetrate food without major effort. The blade's final sharpening was made by hand using a leather band at a total angle of 30° (meaning 15° on each side). The result is undeniable: a sharp edge that makes cutting food a much more pleasant experience!

The handle

Wusaki knife is a tool of high quality from the tip to bottom. That is why, as the blade, the handle is also an important part. It is made of olive wood that has been treated to have a surface that is soft to touch. This noble wood, which has a fruity scent, makes a beautiful contrast with the metal of the blade, and the veinings on its surface are unique on each knife.

The original shape of the handle that allows you to hold it comfortably and firmly. You get to truly have the control of the knife as the thumb and the forefinger are able to keep great strength during the usage of the knife. As it is the case in all Wusaki knives, the handle is longer than the average so that it can be easier to manipulate. The final touch of elegance is found on the bottom of the handle where the Japanese character "Tiger" has been engraved by laser.

One final thing that makes each Wusaki Damas VG10 knife stand out from the rest is the packaging. That is why this knife set sold in a black box with foam inside to protect that protect the knive from hits or strokes. The elegance of the box makes this set a great option to offer as a gift!

To take good care of each knife: always wash it by hand using lukewarm water and mild soap. Then, wipe it with a soft cloth and store it in a dry place. You must also know that when you first receive the knife, the blade will be coated with protectio oil. This is normal, and all you need to do is to wash the blade before its first usage.

When washing the knives, try to avoid as much as possible to wet the handles, because the wood doesn’t like humidity. In fact, to protect and preserve the wood of the handles, we recommend you to wipe them from time to time with a cloth slightly soaked in olive oil.

We invite you to have a look at all the Wusaki knife sets available on our website and get yours before it's too late!
