Led by Taka Kitano, Touroku Sakai continues a three-generation legacy of fine Japanese knife-making in Sakai City. Each blade reflects the skill and precision that define this historic guild of craftsmen.

The Touroku Sakai VG-10 Nakiri is designed for effortless vegetable prep, combining balance, sharpness, and durability in one elegant tool. Built around a VG-10 stainless steel core, enriched with molybdenum, vanadium, chromium, and cobalt, it delivers exceptional edge retention and easy maintenance.

The 33-layer hammered Damascus cladding adds both strength and beauty, while its Tsuchime texture reduces drag and keeps food from sticking. Finished with a full-tang Western handle in black-ink color pakkawood, this knife offers a secure, comfortable grip and excellent control.

Hand-forged and polished in Sakai, Japan, the Touroku Sakai VG-10 Nakiri embodies the harmony of traditional technique and modern refinement—crafted for cooks who value precision and lasting quality.
