G.Sakai VG10 Santoku 165mm G-10 (Red) Handle

G-Sakai develops and manufactures products such as outdoor knives and kitchen knives in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, which has been known as the ``city of cutlery'' since ancient times and has produced many masterpieces. Pocket knives, which were our main product when we were founded in 1947, have received high praise in the United States, the home of outdoor culture, and we have built up a track record as an OEM partner for world-famous knife brands. While maintaining the sophistication and high quality that we have refined in this way, we are developing our own G-Sakai brand that flexibly incorporates the needs of our users. What we value is the best balance of sharpness, blade durability, and rust resistance to suit the application. Therefore, it is essential to conduct research into steel materials that have new possibilities. We will continue to deliver products that live up to the name "MADE IN SEKI" by making full use of the DNA of craftsmanship that has been passed down uninterruptedly for approximately 700 years and technology that is evolving day by day.
