Material Excellence, Tailored by Hand
Dark Rosewood Handle – Dense Hardwood with Rich Colour and Stability
Dark Rosewood is a premium timber known for its rich chocolate tones, exceptional density, and smooth natural finish. Its resistance to wear and moisture makes it a durable and elegant choice for daily use. Each handle is hand-shaped and polished to reveal the depth of colour and grain, offering a comfortable grip and a classic, understated luxury.

Black Liner – Reinforced Core with Elegant Contrast
A black liner is placed between tang and timber, reinforcing the structural integrity while adding a refined visual break beneath the dark Rosewood tones. It supports both strength and style in equal measure.

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
• VG10 kitchen knife – forged for refined work and enduring clarity
