Tanaka G3 Damascus

Shigeki Tanaka Ginsan Damascus: Carbon Soul, Zero Rust Stress

Meet Tanaka’s near-mythical Ginsan Damascus – the knife that gives you everything you love about his Blue #2 line, minus the rust anxiety. At its heart? Ginsan (Silver #3) steel – a stainless superstar that holds a carbon-like edge, stays stain-resistant, and sharpens like a dream.

Forged with Tanaka’s signature workhorse grind, it powers through produce with excellent food release and smooth penetration. The rippling Damascus cladding isn’t just eye candy – it reduces drag and sticks nothing to the blade.

Why chefs reach for it:
→ Same trusted Tanaka geometry as his Blue #2 legend
→ Flawless food release + glide-through cutting
→ Zero patina panic – just wash, dry, and cut
→ Arguably one of the top performers under $500

For those craving carbon-steel performance without carbon-steel babysitting, this is your grail: Miki-crafted muscle, Damascus beauty, and stainless peace of mind.
