Petty Knife Sai Damascus Finish Micarta Handle with Bolster 150mm (ペティ サイ ダマスカス仕上げ マイカルタ柄 口金付 150mm)
¥22,800
※You can still order items that are out of stock. We will arrange it for you, so please feel free to request it via DM or other means. Cutlery description Production area: Seki City, Gifu Prefecture (Seki Cutlery) Category: Petty knife Blade length: 150mm Steel: Laminated steel Handle: Micarta handle with ferrule (The ferrule prevents dirt from accumulating at the edge of the blade and handle, making it hygienic to use.) Damascus steel is famous in the world of knives. Its woodgrain-like pattern is very popular, and it is often out of stock. Damascus steel is made by layering many thin steel sheets in a mille-feuille style and sharpening them to create the woodgrain pattern. Damascus steel itself is a steel material made in ancient India, and knives currently on the market are sold with a "Damascus finish" or "Damascus pattern" that resemble the image of Damascus steel. This base metal is often made by steel manufacturers, and occasionally blacksmiths make knives that are forged in a similar way. It can be confusing because knife manufacturers use terms such as "Damascus finish," "sumigashi," "forged surface," and "laminated steel," but basically they are all the same kind of product.

All sharp edges have been rounded. The blade is also designed to cut paper smoothly. "Aren't dull knives safer?" We sometimes hear such comments, but with a dull knife you have to use too much force to cut. This can cause the blade to move in unexpected ways, leading to serious accidents such as dropping your fingers. That's why the knife has a blade to prevent serious accidents. Why not try this knife when cooking with your children? *Please note that the sharpness does not last as long as conventional knives.

MISONO Square-shaped Boning Knife No.541 Molybdenum Steel with Bolster 145mm (骨スキ 角型 MISONO ミソノ NO.541 モリブデン鋼 口金付 145mm)

Cutlery description Production area:Seki City, Gifu Prefecture (Seki Cutlery) Category: Bone Skimmer Blade Length: 145mm Steel: Vanadium-molybdenum steel Handle: Black plywood with ferrule (The ferrule prevents dirt from accumulating at the boundary between the blade and handle, which is where dirt tends to accumulate, making it hygienic to use.) Molybdenum vanadium steel contains both molybdenum and vanadium. The inclusion of molybdenum (Mo) and vanadium (V) improves wear resistance (retains sharpness) and corrosion resistance (resists rust), so in addition to knives, it is also used for medical scalpels, machine parts, tool steel, and other uses that are easy to maintain, making it a popular steel material for chefs and home use alike. Many stainless steel knives use molybdenum and vanadium. Although it is resistant to rust, this does not mean that it will not rust at all. We recommend that you remove any moisture and store it after drying it thoroughly. A characteristic of molybdenum steel rust is that it leaves dotted pinholes, like holes made by a pin, so please be careful when handling it.

¥7,800
※You can still order items that are out of stock. We will arrange it for you, so please feel free to request it via DM or other means. Cutlery description Production area: Seki City, Gifu Prefecture (Seki Cutlery) Category: Petty knife Blade length: 120mm Steel: SK material (Japanese steel) Handle: Black plywood with ferrule (The ferrule prevents dirt from accumulating at the boundary between the blade and the handle, which is prone to dirt accumulation, and allows for hygienic use) SK material is a high-carbon steel that contains 0.55 to 1.5% carbon and does not contain any alloying elements such as chromium or molybdenum, and is a material that is frequently used in tools. The name SK is an abbreviation that combines English and Japanese. S stands for steel and K stands for tool. SK material, like S-C material (carbon steel for mechanical structures), is easier to obtain a harder heat treatment hardness as the carbon content increases up to about 0.6%, but above 0.6%, the increase in heat treatment hardness rapidly slows. SK material is often required for impact resistance and abrasion resistance rather than hardenability, and steels with a low carbon content are chosen for applications where impacts will be performed, i.e. impact resistance that requires toughness, while steels with a high carbon content are chosen for abrasion resistance that requires sharpness, so these are the materials used for knives. SK material has long been a popular material for knives, and is the standard steel used for household use. As it is a material that rusts, it has a better sharpness than stainless steels such as molybdenum.
