Sakai Takayuki's 45 Layer Damascus line features an AUS10 steel cutting core and hand-hammered tsuchimi finish for added strength and quick food release. Beautiful octagonal walnut handles are paired with the thin blade to create a light center-balanced feel, and is comfortable in the hand even after long hours of use.

Why we love them: Sakai Takayuki 45 Layer Damascus is an all around great performing knife and a perfect choice if you've never used a wa-handled knife before.
