Sakai Takayuki VG10 Cleaver Kitchen Knife 195mm - London

Description

I purchased this knife over a year ago now and it has unfortunately sat in it's box since, I have only used it once when first purchased, it is mint condition.

Beautiful blade and mahogany handle, I must say I have a couple knives from the same maker and they never let me down, amazing balance and cutting.

It comes in the original box and sleeve, in addition a lovely little handmade origami Santa (as was purchased at Christmas time), I mean that is really the main selling point :)

RRP when purchased £280
£210 OVNO (Considering new is £220 + VAT and Shipping from Japan ££££)

Description from website:
Behind the Sakai Takayuki knives come a 600-year of knife making history by skilled craftsmen
in Sakai, Osaka Prefecture, in Japan. Since then, the excellent workmanship and technology
that create these knives remain unchanged. This is also the reason why most people trust Japanese knives.

Why buy this knife?

The 33-layer Damascus steel used in making this razor sharp Japanese knife is hand hammered
to ensure the strength of the blade and at its core is one of the best steels used in kitchen knife production due to its superior edge retention, sharpness, and being stain resistant – the VG10 steel.
