Purpose Built. Professionally Honed.
Every Takumi Edge knife starts with a VG10 steel core — chosen for its edge retention and resistance to corrosion. Surrounded by 67 hand-folded layers of Damascus steel, finished at a precise 15° angle. Not mass-produced. Not compromised.
Built differently.
67-Layer Damascus
Each blade is forged from 67 alternating layers of steel, folded and welded by hand. The visible grain is a byproduct of the process — not a surface treatment.
67 layers · Forge-weldedVG10 Steel Core
The cutting edge is a single core of VG10 — a high-carbon Japanese steel that holds a fine edge longer than most European alternatives and resists corrosion in a real kitchen.
62 HRC · VG10 Japanese steel15° Blade Angle
Western knives are typically ground to 20–25°. Ours are finished at 15° per side — a thinner, more acute edge that cuts rather than wedges through food.
15° per side · Hand-finishedHand-Finished
After grinding, every blade is hand-polished on a progression of whetstones. No machine finish. The edge profile is checked by hand before the knife leaves the workshop.

Frequently Asked
-
Yes. Every knife is hand-finished and tested before dispatch. You can cook with them straight away — no sharpening required on arrival.
-
Damascus steel is created by folding and forge-welding multiple layers of steel together, producing the distinctive flowing pattern on the blade. Our Damascus knives use a VG10 steel core — a high-carbon Japanese steel known for exceptional edge retention — surrounded by 67 layers of softer steel for flexibility and strength.
-
Hand wash only — never the dishwasher. Dry immediately after washing. Store on a magnetic strip or in a knife block, not loose in a drawer. Hone regularly with a ceramic rod and sharpen once or twice a year depending on use.
