Sakai Takayuki | Grand Chef Hamon / Sakura-Urushi | Wa-Petty | 150mm

【Ultimate Functional Beauty Imbued with Visionary Colors】Sakai Takayuki Grand Chef Hamon Wa-Petty 150mm (Stabilized Wood Handle)

Usage: This blade fuses the nimbleness of a "Petty knife" with exceptional maneuverability. The 150mm blade length demonstrates surprising agility—not only for intricate work with fruits and small vegetables but also as a "small primary knife" for filleting small fish or trimming silver skin from meat. The sense of unity, as if the knife were an extension of your own hand, elevates delicate culinary tasks to a higher dimension.

Material (Bohler-Uddeholm Special Steel): The blade is crafted from special steel produced by Bohler-Uddeholm of Sweden, renowned for the world's highest quality. With extremely low impurity levels, it achieves a high-level balance between incredible edge retention and rust resistance. Furthermore, the blade surface features a beautiful "Hamon" (ripple pattern), which provides both the practical benefit of effortless food release and an artistic quality that captivates the observer.

Handle (Stabilized Wood): The handle is made from "Stabilized Wood," a next-generation material where natural wood is permeated with resin and hardened. While retaining the warmth of natural timber, it boasts exceptionally high water resistance and durability, resisting deformation or degradation even in harsh kitchen environments. Each handle features unique, mystical colors and complex grain patterns, making every knife a one-of-a-kind "work of art." The traditional octagonal shape ensures that delicate sensations are transmitted precisely to your fingertips.

Overall Impression: "A tool that reaches the pinnacle of functional beauty is, in itself, a work of craft." This is the pride of Sakai Takayuki—infusing the "Grand Chef" series, trusted by professionals worldwide, with the vibrant colors afforded by modern technology. Bring world-class sharpness to your everyday cooking scenes. This is a lifelong companion where aesthetics and utility resonate in harmony.
