Why VG10 Damascus Steel?
Not all kitchen knives are created equal. The steel determines everything—from how long the edge lasts to how precisely it cuts. That's why the Chikashi uses VG10 Damascus steel.
Stays Sharp 3x Longer Than Standard Steel
VG10 isn't marketing hype—it's a premium steel originally developed by Takefu Special Steel Co. in Japan specifically for high-end cutlery. With 2.5x more carbon than standard kitchen knives, the knife holds its razor-sharp edge longer and requires less frequent sharpening.
- Sharpens monthly instead of weekly
- 58-60 HRC hardness for superior edge retention
- 8-12° edge angle vs 20° on Western knives
- 1.0% carbon content (standard steel: 0.4%)
Average edge retention between sharpenings
3 Reasons You Might NOT Want This Knife
We believe in radical transparency. This knife isn't for everyone, and that's okay.
You Want "Set It and Forget It"
While VG10 stays sharp 3x longer than standard steel, it still needs occasional maintenance. If you never want to think about sharpening, a lower-quality knife you can abuse might suit you better (though we don't recommend it).
You're Looking for the Cheapest Option
Premium Japanese steel and hand-forged Damascus construction costs more than factory stamped knives. If price is your only concern, there are cheaper alternatives. But remember: buy cheap, buy twice.
You Don't Care About Your Tools
The Chikashi deserves care and respect. If you toss your knives in the dishwasher and never hand wash them, this isn't the knife for you. Quality tools reward those who treat them well.
VG10 Damascus vs. Standard Stainless
Here's what the difference actually means when you're preparing meals
Standard Stainless Steel
- Dulls quickly with daily use
- Requires frequent sharpening (weekly)
- 20-25° edge angle (less sharp)
- 50-55 HRC hardness rating
- Prone to edge rolling and bending
- Generic factory appearance
VG10 Damascus Steel
- Stays sharp 3x longer between sharpenings
- Minimal maintenance required (monthly)
- 8-12° razor-sharp edge angle
- 58-60 HRC hardness rating
- Exceptional chip resistance
- Stunning hand-forged Damascus pattern
What Makes VG10 Special?
VG10 is a high-carbon stainless steel that achieves what most steels can't: exceptional sharpness retention while remaining rust-resistant and easy to maintain.
- 1.0% carbon content (vs 0.4% in standard stainless)
- 15% chromium for corrosion resistance
- Cobalt added for toughness and durability
- Originally developed for premium Japanese cutlery
But Why Damascus?
Damascus isn't just beautiful—it's functional. By layering 66 alternating layers of high and low carbon steel around the VG10 core, we create a blade that's stronger, more corrosion-resistant, and yes—absolutely stunning to look at.
- More resistant to chipping and breaking
- Less prone to food sticking during cuts
- Naturally protected with multiple steel layers
- Uniquely patterned—no two blades are identical
The 8-12° Edge Angle
Most Western knives have a 20° edge angle. Japanese knives? 15°. The Chikashi? We go even sharper at 8-12°. This means cleaner cuts with less cell damage— your ingredients stay fresher longer.
- Glides through ingredients with minimal pressure
- Perfect for delicate precision work
- Reduces bruising in soft ingredients
- Professional precision at home
The Beauty of 66 Layers
Each Chikashi blade features 66 layers of alternating high and low carbon steel, forge-welded around the VG10 core. This isn't cosmetic—each layer adds strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance while creating the signature Damascus pattern.
No two patterns are exactly alike. Each knife's Damascus is unique—a result of the hand-forging process. Your Chikashi is truly one-of-a-kind.
The Numbers That Matter
These aren't arbitrary specifications—they're the result of centuries of Japanese bladesmithing perfected with modern metallurgy
Layers of Steel
33 layers on each side of the VG10 core create the distinctive Damascus pattern while adding strength and corrosion resistance
Rockwell Hardness
HRC 58-60 is the sweet spot—hard enough to hold a razor edge, soft enough to avoid brittleness and chipping
Edge Angle
Our 8-12° edge is nearly twice as sharp as Western knives, requiring less force for cleaner, more precise cuts
