The blades

Sharp and beautiful, the blade of every knife in this bag is a true masterpiece. Its core is made of VG10 steel, which is a Japanese alloy with 1% of carbon content, which allows the blade to reach a hardness rating of 60 HRC in the Rockwell scale. This high level of hardness enables the blade to remain sharp longer than most types of Western kitchen knives.

The core is wrapped by 67 layers of damascus steel that provide the knife a balanced ratio between flexibility and hardness. The different steel layers create original patterns on the surface, which give the blade an original look. This type of knife construction requires a special expertise that few cutlers have nowadays.

If cooks love the cutting performance of this knife is in part thanks to its V-shaped edge with a cutting angle of 15° on each side of the blade (total of 30°). The final sharpening is made by hand with the use of a grinding leather band, which is why the knife is ready to perform precise cuts right out of the box.

Furthermore, the polished surface gives the blade a mirror effect that adds a final touch of elegance to the look of the knife. Beyond aesthetics, the polished surface also makes the steel less porous, which in turn enhances the steel’s resistance to corrosion.

The handles

Elegant and comfortable to hold, the handles are made of ebony, which is a noble wood characterised for its beauty and robustness. Its dark tone creates a beautiful contrast with the polished steel of the blade, which gives the knives a ravishing look.

The octagonal shape of each handle enables a comfortable grip that adapts to all types of hands. In fact, the handles of all Wusaki knives are a bit longer than average to make the knives easier to maneuver regardless of whether you are a professional or a hobby cook.

Care tips

To always keep these knives in optimal conditions, we recommend you to wash them always by hand with lukewarm water and mild soap. Try to prevent to wet the handle as much as possible, because wood does not tolerate humidity very well. Finally, dry your knives using a soft cloth, and finally, store them in a safe place free of humidity. 

Important to know: The blade of the knife comes with a slightly oily surface. This is normal as the oil protects the steel of the blade. You simply need to rinse it off before using the knife for the first time.

The bag

Made of black polyester, it is thick enough to guarantee the safety of the knives stored inside, and at the same time, it is also lightweight enough to let you carry it around in all comfort. It is perfect for chefs on the go and students in culinary schools.

Even though the set only comes with 5 knives, the roll bag has space to store up to 9 knives and accessories. The bag is large enough to store knives with a maximum blade length of 29cm. The blades are protected by an internal flap that covers them after being attached with the hook-and-loop fastener available inside the bag.

The bag also has 2 additional pockets where you can store other accessories such as phone chargers or small recipe books. When the bag is open, it measures 48 x 60cm, and when it is closed, it measures 12 x 48.5cm.
