Ishizuchi VG10 Damascus Tsuchime Nakiri Knife Ebony Wood Handle

Sale price$259.00

The Ishizuchi VG10 Damascus Tsuchime Nakiri Knife exemplifies the artistry and precision of Japanese blade craftsmanship. Hand-forged by Ishizuchi Knives, it features a 67-layer Damascus steel blade with a VG-10 core, combining strength, sharpness, and visual elegance.

The intricate wave pattern of the blade is masterfully enhanced through a specialized maddo shiage (mud finishing) technique. This process softens the blade’s natural gloss, allowing the Damascus design to emerge with stunning clarity and depth, creating a mesmerizing, one-of-a-kind texture that transforms the knife into a visual masterpiece.

With its flat edge, the nakiri delivers clean, effortless cuts through vegetables, while the octagonal handle—crafted from ebony and rosewood—provides a balanced, natural grip. A timeless blend of performance and beauty, this knife embodies Ishizuchi’s pursuit of refinement and the enduring spirit of Japanese steelwork.
