Katana Saya is the universal knife brand of our times. The scope of the Katana Saya range is to blend culinary traditions from both Europe and Japan. We offer an extensive range of individual knives representing classic styles from both cultures. The Katana was the prized sword of the Samurai with its extra sharp blade fashioned from folded Damascus Steel. The blades of our knives are similarly crafted from Japanese VG-10 Damascus Steel. Additionally, the Katana was always protected inside a Sheath or Saya. Therefore, all the Japanese style knives are presented with the traditional Wooden Saya and all the Western blades are protected by a real leather sheath. Browse our full range of beautiful Japanese steel kitchen knives that offer superb cutting performance.

  • VG-10 DAMASCUS STEEL BLADE

    Each Katana Saya Knife blade has 67 layers of VG-10 Damascus steel. VG-10 blends the durability of carbon steel with the corrosion resistance of stainless steel and is one of the most premium steels in Japanese culinary products. It is exceptionally tough and also delivers one of the best edge retentions in the market. The exquisite craftsmanship of these knives can be seen in the elegant layered pattern on the blades.
