The Eastern range comes gift boxed with a wooden ‘Saya’ that offers the perfect protection for your knife, protecting yourself and others from its supremely sharp edge. The blade has a 67 layers of VG-10 Damascus steel, the highest quality steel with a high carbon content that gives it exceptional toughness. VG-10 is one of the most premium steels in Japanese culinary products as it hard and unbreakable, reaching a Rockwell hardness rating of us to 63HRC.
The exquisite craftsmanship in these knives can be seen in the elegant layered Damascus pattern on the blade. The incredible tiger stripe pattern is sure to turn heads and offers a stunning addition to your kitchen.
