Set by Seki Kanetsugu
The Kanetsugu Saiun and Zuiun knives are premium Japanese kitchen knives known for their exceptional craftsmanship and performance. The Saiun series features a 65-layer Damascus blade with a VG10 steel core (1% carbon) for excellent sharpness and durability, paired with a micarta handle that resists moisture and temperature changes. The Zuiun series, created to celebrate Kanetsugu’s 100th anniversary, uses high-end SG2 powder steel (62–63 HRC) for superb edge retention and a finely tapered edge for precision cutting. These knives also feature a mirror-like Damascus finish, a unique heptagonal pakkawood handle with a mosaic pin, and come presented in a Paulownia wood box.
