From the legendary workshops of Takamura Hamono in Takefu, the VG-10 Tsuchime series is a shining example of functional beauty and cutting precision. Takamura is globally celebrated for its uncompromising craftsmanship and ultra-refined edge geometry.

This series features a tsuchime (hammered) finish, which isn’t just beautiful - it also helps reduce food sticking by creating air pockets along the blade surface. Paired with a razor-thin laser grind, this knife glides effortlessly through vegetables, proteins, and more. The exceptional grind, fit and finish and heat treatment delivers high-end performance at a price that makes it one of the best values in Japanese cutlery.
