Sakai Takayuki
These tall series Coreless Damascus Stainless Steel Knives from Sakai Takayuki are crafted from a blend of VG-10 and VG-2 multi-layered Damascus steel throughout the entire blade. This combination not only enhances the knives' impressive appearance but also provides exceptional edge retention and a sharper blade compared to standard VG-10 knives.
The Bunka knife, similar to the versatile Santoku, excels in a variety of culinary tasks. This tall series Bunka features a modest curve in the blade, ideal for both chopping and rocking motions. Its tall blade design keeps your knuckles clear of the cutting board. Renowned for their exceptional performance, Bunka knives are favored by discerning chefs, both amateurs and professionals alike.
The unique properties of Coreless Damascus steel result in two steel types abrading and fatiguing at different rates. This creates a microscopically rough edge with sawtooth-like properties, delivering an outstanding cutting surface.
Each knife is hand-sharpened and finished with a Japanese Octagon Wenge wood handle, ensuring a comfortable grip and precise control for all your culinary tasks.

I will absolutely be buying from Element again. I searched all over to find the best price on this knife, and it was here. The knife came well packed, shipped quickly, and the seller included some lovely personal touches in the box. I try to support small businesses, and this one is doing everything right. Thank you.
This is a great, thin, tall, robust, and carefree knife for veggie annihilation. You could have this as a tall nakiri made of carbon steel - which is nice, but not worrying about leaving a blade wet is a nice feature in a busy kitchen. The height allows you to ‘carefully’ scoop up product, and the robust steel takes away most of the fear of chipping the edge. Very happy with this knife!
