Dao Vua 52100 Nashiji Knives

Introducing the Dao Vua 52100 Series - hand forged in Hanoi, Vietnam by the Dao Vua family who has been involved in blacksmithing for multiple generations. They specialize in using recycled materials, giving these materials a new life. However, in an effort to improve the quality of their knives, Dao Vua more recently started importing and working with high quality 52100 steel from the US.

Even though they could be a little rough around the edges, these kitchen knives are a great entry into fully carbon steel kitchen knives. They are value-for-money options that could help hone your skills in sharpening, or learning to care for and work with carbon steel.
