SAN KYOTO

The SAN KYOTO knife series represents the flagship of the TAMAHAGANE brand. These are truly exclusive knives with beautiful Damascus blades.

Their high quality is given not only by the quality of the material, but also by its concentration. During production, the original thickness of 20 mm was reduced by rolling to a final 2 mm. Not only have unwanted impurities been removed, but the optimum composition and density of the material has also been achieved, resulting in a hardness of up to 61 HRC. This noble core is protected on each side by 31 layers of nickel damask. The Japanese call it suminagashi. With this art technique, a little ink is poured into the soapy water and then the surface gently caused a ripple. This creates interesting patterns that you can see on the 63-layer SAN KYOTO knife blades. The blade is symmetrical in a "V" shape.

The perfect blade includes an equally perfect handle. That is why SAN KYOTO knives are fitted with elegant black handles made of high-quality Micarta material. Many great world chefs have realized all these features and TAMAHAGANE SAN KYOTO has become their clear choice. We can mention the Norwegian chef for all of them

 Geir Skeie, winner of famous Bocuse d´Or. Nippon Knives would like to cordially invite you to test the flagship brand of TAMAHAGANE.
