Material Excellence, Tailored by Hand
Black Limba Handle – Lightweight Elegance with Striking Natural Grain
Black Limba is an African hardwood prized for its dramatic contrast between light gold and dark brown streaks. Lightweight yet structurally stable, it delivers a smooth, responsive feel in the hand while showcasing expressive natural beauty. Each handle is shaped and polished by hand to highlight the unique movement of the grain — resulting in a distinct aesthetic rooted in organic texture.

Black Liner – Reinforced Core with Elegant Contrast
A black liner between tang and timber offers strength and balance, while introducing a sharp visual break that complements the Limba’s natural tone.

Suminagashi San Mai VG10 – Layered Steel, Unique to Each Blade
At the core of the blade lies VG10 stainless steel, selected for its hardness, cutting clarity, and edge retention. The core is protected through San Mai construction, with softer stainless steel layers laminated on either side for added toughness and corrosion resistance. The outer surfaces are etched and polished to reveal the blade’s Suminagashi pattern — flowing wave-like lines created by layering and folding steels of different carbon contents. Each blade is visually unique, with no two marbled patterns alike.

Key Attributes of Suminagashi San Mai VG10 Steel:
• Razor-sharp edge and long-lasting performance
• Triple-layer San Mai construction for strength and durability
• High corrosion resistance for professional kitchen use
• Signature Suminagashi wave pattern – forged into the blade, not printed
• Professional VG10 kitchen knife – built to perform with clarity and power
