The Story
About Sakai Takayuki Grand Chef Seigaiha - Sakai Takayuki is well-known as the largest knife maker in Sakai. The company hosts a number of blacksmiths and craftsmen who work together to create a huge array of knives. Although the Sakai region traditionally specializes in single-bevel blades, Sakai Takayuki makes many different shapes.
The western style Seigaiha line all feature very cool slanted 'kiritsuke' tip, super thin blades and an eye-catching “Blue Wave damascus” pattern. They are made from Boehler Swedish steel, so they take a super keen edge and are easy to sharpen! An excellent knife for both home cooks and professional chefs.
About the Shape - Inspired by the profile of a traditional European chef knife and badass tip of a Kiritsuke (Traditionally a single bevel knife), double bevel Kiritsukes are a multi purpose knife with a slight meat cutting bias. If you want one knife to do it all, and look cooler than your buddy, this is your knife. For the at-home or professional cook, we recommend a Kiritsuke which measures between 210mm and 240mm long.
