Ginsanko refers to the material of stainless steel.
Ginsanko is a relatively hard steel material among stainless steels, so it retains its sharpness for a long time.
The material is also used by professional chefs, so you can use it with confidence.
Since it is made of stainless steel, it is resistant to rust, so it is recommended for those who are concerned about rust.
The handle is made of wood called Ichiichi.
It is strong and has an octagonal shape, making it easy to hold.
Sakai cutlery is made by a blacksmith, a sharpener, a signature cutter, and a handle maker, each with their own division of labor.
This is a masterpiece created by each craftsman with high skill and pride.
This Yanagiba knife is made from Ginsanko, the only stainless steel material in Yasugi Steel.
In addition, instead of the commonly used magnolia pattern, we use an octagonal pattern that fits comfortably in your hand.
