Sakai Takayuki Santoku Knife 170mm (6.7") Damascus 33 Layer

Excellent Products; Excellent Customer Service

I've ordered ~5 knives from Hasu-Seizo. The knives are beautiful and excellent quality. They always come artfully wrapped with care. And any questions asked are done so quickly. I only wish I had more people in my life needing such a gift.

Excellent Product and Experience

The knife is excellent, as expected. Used recently to slice tough fish skin and it was effortless and clean. Maybe more impressive to me are 2 things: (1) is the education provided on the website of the varieties and befits of the different types of steel, etc. used in knife making. That was incredibly helpful. (2) the care taken when shipping. The knife was wrapped beautifully in Japanese newspaper and had handwritten notes from the owner. Lovely, unique, and rare in today’s world. Nice touch. Positive experience start to finish. Thank you!

Beautiful, well crafted, sharp.

It is beautiful. The craftsman work shows. And it is absolutely beyond a doubt the best knife I have ever known. Feels like I am cutting through nothing when I am cutting vegetables or fish. I can not recommend it enough.
