Produced by Aoki Hamono in Sakai, this knife represents a collaborative manufacturing approach delivering consistent quality within the 33 Layers VG10 Damascus Tsuchime line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe VG10 core measures 59-61 HRC and contains 15% chromium for stain resistance, offering balanced performance that is easy to sharpen and maintain. Sanmai stainless Damascus construction ensures the blade remains fully stainless and suitable for household care without reactive maintenance requirements. The tsuchime hammered finish provides visual texture across the 33-layer cladding. This model sits on the thicker side of chef's knife profiles, contributing to its durable build and fit for non-professional users. The double-bevel geometry supports general-purpose kitchen tasks while rewarding deliberate, tip-led cutting techniques distinct from single-bevel kiritsuke knives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sakai Takayuki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31532931022985,"sku":"ST_VG10DA_KTIPGY190","price":279.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/DSC_6450.jpg?v=1780273631"},{"product_id":"sakai-takayuki-kurokage-vg10-petty-150mm","title":"Sakai Takayuki Kurokage VG10 Petty 150mm","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eThe all new Takayuki Kurokage line, state-of-the-art VG10 steel with Teflon coating.

This composition supports edge retention while remaining easy to sharpen and suitable for surface coating treatments up to 450°C. The octagonal wenge wood handle pairs with a black ferrule, offering durability against moisture, heat, and frequent handling in kitchen environments. Weighing 204g with a 398mm total length, this knife maintains consistent spine thickness of 2.1mm at both the heel and middle before tapering to 1.1mm near the tip.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sakai Takayuki","offers":[{"title":"210mm","offer_id":43781588517085,"sku":"SATA_VGKU_GY210","price":309.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"240mm","offer_id":44062964777181,"sku":"SATA_VGKU_GY240","price":359.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/SakaiTakayukiKurokageVG10Gyuto210a.jpg?v=1740546870"},{"product_id":"sakai-takayuki-vg10-petty-utility-120mm-33-layer-hammered-damascus","title":"Sakai Takayuki VG10 Petty -  Utility 120mm 33 Layer Hammered Damascus","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003eOne of the best selling family oriented line.
