Yanagiba:
The Yanagiba is like a carving knife on rocket boosters. It slips through food effortlessly and crazy sharpness of the single edge means you will never struggle. Its a true gateway knife for people wanting to get into single bevel knives and learn some cool tricks. When slicing with a yanagiba the blade will naturally want to pull to the left on a right handed knife. (The opposite is true for is true for a lefty. ) As the driver of the blade, you must take control and tell it where to go. Sounds tricky, but you will get the hang of it after a while. Still the Yanagiba can take years to master.
This is a true slicing machine for people who love excellence.

TOUSHU MV Deba 165mm
TOUSHU
TOUSHU knives are manufactured by Fuji Cutlery Co., Ltd. The sister company of Tojiro applies advanced construction techniques and modern materials, combined with high quality Japanese quality control to produce great knives suitable for chefs, home cooks and professionals at a great price
Deba:
The Deba is one of the first knives a sushi chef would use when preparing fish. Mainly used for filleting fish but can also be used for doing some poultry work.
These knives, and a considerable amount of skill on the chefs part, are the reason sushi looks so good and why the fish is cleaned so perfectly. Done properly, the bones will be in one pile with almost no meat on them and the meat will be completely bone-free, perfect fillets.
Most debas are single bevel meaning the knife is ground on one side only and the back side of the knife is flat. Single bevels knives have more acute angles on their edges that excel at cutting softer, thinner product like fish but in return require a different skill set to use and sharpen.
Molybdenum Vanadium Stainless steel:
AUS 8 is a high carbon, low chromium stainless steel that has proven, over time, to be a very good compromise between toughness, strength, edge holding and resistance to corrosion.
It has added Vanadium to give the steel more hardness. This steel is very easy to sharpen to a razor edge but it will dull relatively quickly compared to high-carbon.

Sakai Kikomori – Blue 1 Damascus Santoku 180mm
Sakai Kikumori
With a passionate devotion to knife-making as well as working with some of the most skilled craftsman in Japan, Sakai Kikumori has been making cutlery of incredible quality and performance since its inception in 1926. They have recently started producing custom orders specific to the needs of professional chefs and anyone who desires cutlery that is a cut above the rest whilst preserving their renowned heritage and brand.
The kikumori Santoku is constructed using a core steel of Blue #1, a high carbon steel well known for its edge retention abilities and ease of sharpening. The blade is heat treated to 64 HRC, making it an incredibly hard blade capable of holding very fine, surgically sharp edges for prolonged periods of time. The core steel is cladded in softer Iron with a Damascus finish and the handle is made from Ho Wood with a Buffalo Horn ferrule.
Santoku:
This is also a multi-purpose knife, but with a slight vegetable bias. Santoku means ‘Three Virtues’ or ‘To solve Three Problems’. The virtues or problems are slicing, dicing and mincing. Santoku is usually found in 160mm – 190mm lengths. These are more and more popular in Western kitchens due to the unique shape and smaller easy to handle size.

Takamura Akagouhan – Gyuto 210mm R2
Terukazu Takamura’s knives are known to be refined with a super sharp long lived edge. They have gained recognition worldwide by chefs and even ranked #1 in a consumer test report by Smarson in Sweden, beating out every “top of the line” European knife in the running. His knives are a favorite of Noma’s Rene Redzepi and definitely a Kitchen Samurai favorite!
The Takamura Akagouhan Line is made from a R2 Powdered steel that keeps a super sharp edge for a long time between sharpening. R2 is a high speed powder stainless steel made by Takefu Special steel Co. Ltd. For some knife makers, this is a ideal for knife making like Takamura-san. It has great hardness of greater than 63 HR. This steel has great edge retention, high wear resistance and is stainless. The grains are so fine and uniform that hammer forging is not necessary.
Gyuto (Chefs Knife):
The Gyuto is a Japanese designed chef’s knife. Gyutos vary widely in design but generally range from 210mm to 270mm in length though smaller and larger examples can be found. Like the familiar western styled chef’s knife, Gyutos are commonly tall at the heel, have a reasonably flat profile toward the heel for chopping, a belly toward the tip of the blade for rock cutting, and a pointed tip for precision work.

Scanlen – Santoku
Scanlen Knives
Scanlen knives are produced locally with expert crafting techniques by Frederick Scanlen, a South African born knife artisan who, after schooling, travelled to various parts of the world to learn the art of knife making. Frederick uses all types of indigenous and exotic woods, often recycling previously used wood and utilises high quality steels for the construction of his blades.
The Santoku is constructed San Mai (Three Layer Construction) using UHC, an ultra-high carbon steel which, due to its high carbon content, can be heat treated to high hardness levels.
Frederick Scanlen heat treat the steel to its highest hardness levels because he strives to maintain a good balance between edge retention, sharpness and durability. The blade is cladded in softer stainless steel which provides the knife with corrosion-resistant properties.
The handle is octagonal in shape, made from Kiaat and Walnut which is durable and incredibly comfortable in the hand. The Santoku is a multi-purpose knife with a blade profile that allows for great versatility and due to this as well as its smaller form factor, it has become very popular in Western kitchens.

Moribashi Plating Chopsticks Bloodwood
Moribashi are long chopsticks, with a tip made of Stainless Steel. They are popular among Japanese Professional Chefs, used for preparing and serving Japanese Cuisine, such as Tempura, Sashimi etc. or turning food on the stove. They are not generally designed for eating. These chopsticks allow handling of hot food with one hand, and are used like regular chopsticks.
Professionals usually prefer Metal Tip rather than Wooden or Bamboo’s, as the tips of regular bamboo chopsticks discolour and get greasy after repeated use in hot oil. It is also much more hygienic. The wooden handle protects against heat.
The first thing you will notice about these is the weight, quality and balance they have.
