PREMIUM JAPANESE STEEL

Why VG10 Damascus Steel?

Not all kitchen knives are created equal. The steel determines everything—from how long the edge lasts to how precisely it cuts. That's why the Chikashi uses VG10 Damascus steel.

Longer Lasting Edge

Damascus Layers

THE DIFFERENCE

Stays Sharp 3x Longer Than Standard Steel

VG10 isn't marketing hype—it's a premium steel originally developed by Takefu Special Steel Co. in Japan specifically for high-end cutlery. With 2.5x more carbon than standard kitchen knives, the knife holds its razor-sharp edge longer and requires less frequent sharpening.

Sharpens monthly instead of weekly
58-60 HRC hardness for superior edge retention
8-12° edge angle vs 20° on Western knives
1.0% carbon content (standard steel: 0.4%)

VG10 Damascus

90 days

Standard Stainless

30 days

Average edge retention between sharpenings

3 Reasons You Might NOT Want This Knife

We believe in radical transparency. This knife isn't for everyone, and that's okay.

You Want "Set It and Forget It"

While VG10 stays sharp 3x longer than standard steel, it still needs occasional maintenance. If you never want to think about sharpening, a lower-quality knife you can abuse might suit you better (though we don't recommend it).

You're Looking for the Cheapest Option

Premium Japanese steel and hand-forged Damascus construction costs more than factory stamped knives. If price is your only concern, there are cheaper alternatives. But remember: buy cheap, buy twice.

You Don't Care About Your Tools

The Chikashi deserves care and respect. If you toss your knives in the dishwasher and never hand wash them, this isn't the knife for you. Quality tools reward those who treat them well.

VG10 Damascus vs. Standard Stainless

Here's what the difference actually means when you're preparing meals

Standard Stainless Steel

420 or 440 Series Steel

Dulls quickly with daily use
Requires frequent sharpening (weekly)
20-25° edge angle (less sharp)
50-55 HRC hardness rating
Prone to edge rolling and bending
Generic factory appearance

VG10 Damascus Steel

Premium Japanese VG10 Core

Stays sharp 3x longer between sharpenings
Minimal maintenance required (monthly)
8-12° razor-sharp edge angle
58-60 HRC hardness rating
Exceptional chip resistance
Stunning hand-forged Damascus pattern

THE SCIENCE

What Makes VG10 Special?

VG10 is a high-carbon stainless steel that achieves what most steels can't: exceptional sharpness retention while remaining rust-resistant and easy to maintain.

1.0% carbon content (vs 0.4% in standard stainless)
15% chromium for corrosion resistance
Cobalt added for toughness and durability
Originally developed for premium Japanese cutlery

THE PATTERN

But Why Damascus?

Damascus isn't just beautiful—it's functional. By layering 66 alternating layers of high and low carbon steel around the VG10 core, we create a blade that's stronger, more corrosion-resistant, and yes—absolutely stunning to look at.

More resistant to chipping and breaking
Less prone to food sticking during cuts
Naturally protected with multiple steel layers
Uniquely patterned—no two blades are identical

THE EDGE

The 8-12° Edge Angle

Most Western knives have a 20° edge angle. Japanese knives? 15°. The Chikashi? We go even sharper at 8-12°. This means cleaner cuts with less cell damage— your ingredients stay fresher longer.

Glides through ingredients with minimal pressure
Perfect for delicate precision work
Reduces bruising in soft ingredients
Professional precision at home

The Beauty of 66 Layers

Each Chikashi blade features 66 layers of alternating high and low carbon steel, forge-welded around the VG10 core. This isn't cosmetic—each layer adds strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance while creating the signature Damascus pattern.
