Product Description Moving on to the next page, the KYOKU 8'' Chef Knife blends strength and style, expertly forged from Japanese VG10 steel surrounded by 67 layers of Damascus steel, hammered to a custom wave pattern. Through traditional sharpening methods, each blade is quenched, tempered, and hand-honed, ensuring uniqueness and pride in wielding this culinary weapon.

Utilizing cryogenically-hardened VG-10 steel folded 33 times within Damascus steel, Kyoku knives stand at the pinnacle of modern Japanese cutlery. Its ultrafine edge remains sharp, resistant to corrosion, and built to outlast the competition.

Featuring various knife options such as the 8" Damascus Hammered Chef Knife, 3.5" Damascus Paring Knife, and 6" Damascus Utility Chef Knife, each blade is uniquely designed with distinct features like blade length, handle material, and rockwell hardness.

The hollow-edge design of each blade ensures minimal sticking while cryogenic treatment using the Honbazuke method enhances hardness, flexibility, and corrosion resistance. The fusion of ultramodern technology with ancient craftsmanship results in a thin, sharp edge for unrivaled nonstick performance.

With an exclusive appearance accented by a hammer-beaten wave pattern and a mosaic pin handle, Kyoku knives are designed for maximum comfort and balanced performance. The full-tang construction extends the metal blade throughout the handle, ensuring durability without compromising handling.

From the Daimyo Series 6.5'' Chef Knife to the 8'' Chef Knife and 7'' Santoku Knife, Kyoku's commitment to modern technology and traditional craftsmanship shines through each blade, offering superior precision and control for chefs of all levels.

Undoubtedly, the Kyoku 8" Chef Knife delivers precise cuts through various ingredients with little resistance, thanks to its ultra-sharp blade sharpened using the traditional Honbazuke method. The sturdy handle, along with its accompanying case, ensures protection and longevity for your knife, while the ergonomic design minimizes fatigue even during heavy use.

Backed by a lifetime warranty and exceptional customer service, Kyoku's damascus chef's knife is a reliable choice for culinary professionals and home chefs seeking quality, precision, and durability in their kitchen tools.
