Japanese craftsmanship in your kitchen

The name "Gai" means "armor" in Japanese, reflecting the exceptional durability of the handle. The 37 layers of damask steel not only give the knife a distinctive look but also contribute to the strength and sharpness of the blade. The VG10 steel core is known for its hardness, allowing for an extremely sharp edge that lasts. At 13.5 cm, the knife is the ideal tool for precision tasks where larger knives may be too cumbersome.

Advantages of damask steel and ergonomic design

Weighing in at 85 grams, the knife feels comfortable in hand without being heavy during prolonged use. The damask pattern is not just aesthetically pleasing; it also makes the blade resistant to wear. The balance between the blade and handle is finely tuned, giving you full control over the knife—even during detailed cutting tasks. The hardness of the knife allows it to retain a sharp edge for a long time but requires proper maintenance to preserve its quality.
