The KATSURA Japanese VG-10 3 Layer Forged Knife Series comes in 5 different options; 6.5’’ Nakiri, 8’’ Chef, 7’’ Santoku, 5” Small Santoku, and 3.5” Paring. The blade is crafted by folding 2 layers of Japanese forged steel over a Japanese VG-10 steel cutting core with a 60-62 Rockwell hardness for a finer and tougher edge that is still easy to sharpen. The PAKKAWOOD handle is perfectly weight balanced and features a full-tang, 3-pin design. Designed to suit the cutting techniques used by professional Japanese chefs, this knife series brings culinary mastery to any kitchen. Every KATSURA knife comes inside a handcrafted gift box. USE AND CARE: not for chopping bone; do not use on hard surfaces like granite, tile, or glass cutting boards; wash by hand with gentle dish soap, rinse, and dry with a dishcloth; sharpen with a whetstone at an angle of 15 degrees. Limited lifetime warranty, full satisfaction guaranteed.

Beautiful addition to the kitchen knife set !
This knife is as functional as it is beautiful. It is medium sized, fits well in the hand, balanced, beautiful to look at, made of quality Japanese steel, and has instantly become one of my 'forever' chef knives !

Perfect little knife
Perfect little knife, Sharp blade!!!Paring knife is a must have knife in the kitchen. I like to cook; I need big and small knives to make my cooking job more easy. This little sharp blade could do a lot of things. I was trying to peel the apple skin. It’s easy to work with and just very thin skin coming out. I feel that this knife is even better than I paid 50 bucks few months ago to get a Japanese Damascus VG-10 paring knife. Who know that is real Japanese Damascus VG-10 or no, but this 3 Layers VG-10 performs better than my 50 bucks Damascus one. If you are looking for a paring knife with budget, I think this is a good choice.

NO SERVICE - NO INVENTORY
Poor, fair or excellent knife blade quality or function matters little if one can not obtain the blade in the first place, which is the case with Katsura. They are exceedingly lacking in inventory, provide absolutely ZERO service and have demonstrated more than once that they intend to improve neither. WARNING! DO NOT EVEN THINK about trying to get a set of matching blades! Don't waste you time or money with this company/brand. Second warning! Zhen blades are the same Japanese steel blades made at the same Taiwanese company, just without the Katsura logo.

Excellent Quality.
This is a beautiful 5" blade chefs knife. The handle has a comfortable grip and the blade is made of sturdy stainless steel. This blade, out of the box, is razor sharp. The overall balance of this knife is amazing, and one that no kitchen should be without.
