Shujin Series

Each knife in the Shujin collection has a specific purpose. The boning fillet knives delicately slice fish, while the cleaver and butcher knives handle large chunks of meat. Pick up the Shujin chef knife for everyday use, then keep your blades sharp with the diamond-coated sharpening rod.

Premium VG-10 Damascus Steel Cooking Knives

These hammered kitchen knives feature VG 10 Damascus steel, which combines steel with carbon, cobalt, vanadium and other alloys for maximum durability. Each forged kitchen knife also has a distinct rippled pattern on the blade and a sturdy, grippable handle. If you're just starting out, pick up a whole set of Damascus steel kitchen knives and see the difference.

Handcrafted Forged Kitchen Knives with a Hammered Finish

Your hammered knife set should retain its sharpness well and avoid corrosion. However, mishandling a hammered finish knife could damage the blade, so always hand wash your knives with soap and water and dry them before placing them in storage. The chemicals in your dishwasher might scratch the steel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Makes VG10 Damascus Steel Exceptional?

Developed in Japan, VG10 steel knives feature high levels of carbon. This makes the blade more durable and helps it retain its sharpness. VG 10 Damascus steel also includes chromium for rust resistance and vanadium, manganese and cobalt for added strength.

Why Forged Construction Matters for Kitchen Knives

To make a forged knife, a craftsman heats a sheet of metal and hammers it into place, creating a sharp, flexible blade. Handcrafted knives are typically higher quality than factory-produced blades, which makes them worth the investment.
