The largest is a 13-inch gyuto. The set also has a 12-inch nakiri, a 12-inch santoku, and a 12-inch chef hybrid knife. Every blade is forged from Damascus steel with a bold flowing wood grain pattern in a high polish finish. Each handle is olive wood with a smooth honey-tan finish. No metal bolster — clean wood-to-blade transition. Two silver pins lock the scales on each handle. Full tang runs through every piece.

Damascus steel was adopted for its layered grain that holds a sharp working edge through varied daily cutting demands. Olive wood became a favored handle material on Japanese-style sets for its natural oils and clean visual character. The set carries that Japanese kitchen tradition across all four blades.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBlade Performance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEvery blade is forged from Damascus steel with a bold flowing wood grain pattern. The high polish finish reduces drag and keeps every face clean through daily use. The nakiri handles fast straight vegetable chopping with its wide flat edge. The gyuto covers primary slicing and general food prep with its long pointed tip. The santoku manages balanced chopping and precision cuts with its rounded tip. The chef hybrid handles mixed kitchen tasks with a wide belly profile.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandle Construction\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEvery handle is olive wood with a warm honey-tan tone and natural grain. Olive wood is naturally oil-rich and dense. It resists moisture through daily kitchen washing without warping or cracking. No metal bolster sits between wood and blade — a clean direct transition on every knife. Two silver pins lock the scales firmly to the full tang on each handle. The full tang runs the full length on every piece for consistent balance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBest Used
