The steel
Why VG10 Damascus?
Every Chikashi blade has a VG10 Japanese steel core wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus, so it takes a keen edge, holds it, and looks like nothing else in your kitchen.
-
67
Layers
Damascus steel folded around the core for strength, stain resistance and the feather pattern.
-
VG10
Japanese steel core
A high-carbon stainless steel prized for taking a fine edge and holding it.
-
8–12°
Edge per side
A finer edge than most Western knives, so it glides through food with less pressure.
-
Abalone
Handle
Shimmering abalone set in an ergonomic handle, balanced for fatigue-free cutting.

Too good to keep in a drawer.
Feather-pattern Damascus and shimmering abalone handles turn every knife into a talking point, and the edge backs up the looks from the very first cut.

Chikashi vs the usual suspects
| Feature | Chikashi | Supermarket knife | German steel knife |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cutting feel | Effortless, clean cuts with light pressure | Tears and squashes soft food | Clean, but needs more force |
| Stays sharp | VG10 core keeps its edge for longer | Dulls quickly | Needs honing more often |
| Precision work | Fine 8–12° edge for slicing and detail | Thick, clumsy blade | Heavier, thicker blade |
| Value | 67-layer Damascus for Rs. 18,600.00 | Cheap, but replaced often | Premium prices for softer steel |

The knifes look amazing. Feel amazing and sharp so far and so good
Great set of knives! I also bought the magnetic butcher block and the sharpening stone. Highly recommend.
This was a present for my granddaughter's partner who loves cooking and wanted a "proper" chef's knife. He tested it immediately & it sliced through a sheet of paper. Now a prized chef's knife.
Absolutely love the knives I purchased. They are beautiful to look at and very, very sharp. Cooking is a joy with these knives. Very happy, hope to get the rest of them soon!
This knife is perfectly balanced and very sharp. Though costly, I can see the workmanship that has gone into making it, and can understand the price. The handle is beautiful, and the steel has a gorgeous pattern to it; it is a joy to look at. I look forward to enjoying its use for many years to come and will invest in some more matching knives over time.
The service from Santoku was excellent. Thank you.
This knife is so efficient, and made me feel like the coolest chef in the kitchen

Good to know
Which Chikashi knife should I start with?
Most people start with the 8" chef knife: it handles meat, fish and veg. Prefer something lighter and more compact? Choose the 7" santoku. Kitting out a whole kitchen? The full set with six knives and the sharpening steel works out cheaper than buying them one by one.
Can it go in the dishwasher?
No. Hand wash and dry it straight after use to keep the edge sharp and the abalone handle looking its best.
How long does delivery take?
Shipping is free worldwide on every order. Most orders arrive within 7–10 business days; remote areas can take a little longer.
What if it’s not right for me?
You have 180 days to return it, as long as it's complete, undamaged and in its original packaging.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. Every Chikashi knife is covered by our lifetime warranty.
