For those of us who love fine
foods and appreciate the art of cooking,
the chef knife is our most important tool in the kitchen.
For the
past 11 generations Sakura Japan has patiently crafted the best
kitchen knives
available by incorporating the finest quality materials
and knife smith artistry known to man.
Our chef knives are fine tuned and created to stand the test of time by
giving their owners
endless years of pleasure in their kitchens.
Creation of the Chef Knife
Up until a
few years ago Chef Knives
were a privilege given only to professional
chefs or those few who had the funds
to purchase a good chef knife.
In the
passed few years a trend started
that gave the opportunity for regular
enthusiast home chefs the opportunity to
add to their kitchen a professional chef knife.
There are new European Chef Knife Brands:
-
F. Dick
-
J. A. Henkels
-
Wusthof Dreizak
-
Sabatier
-
Victorinox
American Chef Knife Brands:
-
Cuisinart
-
Cutco
-
Ginsu
-
KitchenAid
-
Spyderco
And probably the better and certainly the
later exposed Japanese Chef Knife Brands:
-
Global
-
Kyocera
-
Sakura
-
Kershaw
One
of the more amazing
Knives available today,
is the Sakura 8" Chef Knife. Going back
11 generations, Sakura Japan
have been making the sharpest Japanese
knife blades and incorporating them in their
amazing Chef Knives.
Until recently only Japanese style knives
were crafted making them uncomfortable
for Europeans and Americans to use.
Lately, European style Chef Knives are being
produced.
These are the knives that we are used to work with.
The Sakura Japanese blades are forged with a
Carbon Steel metal called VG-10
which is only
forged and available in Japan.
This metal is so precious to the Japanese
culture that it is forbidden by the Japanese government to
export it as raw material.
The Chef Knife Blade is folded 33 time on
each side, giving it 67 Layers of VG-10 Steel.

Sakura 8" Damascus Chef Knife
See
the layers of the variegated surface on the
blade of the Chef Knife.
This pattern is also called Damascus
Surface
or
Damascus blade.
What these layers do is give the
Amazing Sakura Chef Knife an
extraordinary amount of steel fibers
running all the way through the blade
allowing for flexibility and extreme strength.
This will be the
hardest piece of
metal you will ever own.
The
layers run all the way through the blade and into
the back end of the handle.
Watch the video of the Sakura 8" Chef Knife.
Note that when cutting the paper the chef is
holding the Sakura Knife at the tip of its handle
with only two fingers.

Testimonial:
Thank you very much.
I got the Knife today.
Believe me I have been in the hotel industry for
the last 30 years in four continents and am
an expert in this field.
During my career I have held and worked with
superb knives manufactured by companies in Germany, UK, etc.
But Believe me when I held my Sakura
chef’s knife in my hand I was amazed at what you have
manufactured.
Absolutely stunning and sharp , well balanced
and cuts like a razor blade, I have never
experienced it before.
I am also sure I will enjoy it for many years to
come as it is a life time purchase and am
certainly going to show it off in my circles.
Thank you very much again my friend.
Hope fully may be I will order some more soon.
Stunning
Warm regards
