SAKAI TAKAYUKI 33-Layer Damascus VG10 PETTY 120mm
Product Overview
The Sakai Takayuki 33-Layer Damascus VG10 Petty 120mm is a versatile, mid-sized utility knife designed for precision tasks that require greater reach and control than a small petty, while remaining highly maneuverable.
Its blade features a VG-10 stainless steel core, prized for exceptional sharpness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. Surrounding the core are 33 layers of stainless Damascus steel, laminated to enhance durability, ease of sharpening, and refined visual beauty.
The blade is finished with a traditional Tsuchime (hammered) texture, a hallmark of Japanese forging that increases blade density while helping reduce food adhesion—ideal for both professional kitchens and serious home cooks.

What Is Damascus Steel?
Damascus steel originates from ancient crucible steel, also known as Wootz steel, developed in India and valued for its strength and distinctive patterns.
Modern Japanese Damascus blades are produced by layering stainless steels around a high-performance core, achieving superior sharpness, long edge life, ease of sharpening, and elegant wood-grain patterns.
