1x AKANE all-purpose knife

Each knife is unique, with its individual Damascus grain and natural wood handle. Upon request, we can enhance it with an engraving, creating a truly personal work of art.
MISAKI – where quality meets art.
Many cutting tasks require precision in detail, while others demand flexibility. A single knife is rarely the best solution.
The AKANE set of two combines the agile Santoku with the compact all-purpose knife. Vegetables, herbs, meat, or fish – each knife takes care of exactly where it excels. Together, they form a balanced combination for everyday cooking.
Ideal for chefs looking for a set that combines maneuverability and precision.
Each blade is hand-ground in several steps and carefully inspected – for uncompromising sharpness, maximum wear resistance, and absolute control with every cut. The fine-grain powder steel core retains its edge exceptionally well and can be precisely resharpened as needed.
Suitable for:




blade
73 layers of hammered Damascus steel with a high-alloy powder steel core (14Cr14MoVNb) and 72 layers of rust-resistant SUS 410 stainless steel.
The vacuum and cryogenic heat treatment creates an extremely fine microstructure with exceptional hardness. The niobium content in the core gives the blade extreme sharpness and maximum wear resistance.
The Japanese V-grind with 15° per side guarantees uncompromising precision. Exception: The bread knife features a single-sided 30° serrated edge.
The characteristic hammering gives the Damascus knife a special character and underlines its handcrafted aesthetic.
Half bolster and full tang ensure balanced weight distribution, increased stability and maximum durability during intensive use.
Handle
The ergonomically shaped handle made of dark, noble rosewood lies comfortably and securely in the hand – even during prolonged use.
Each handle is finely polished several times to achieve a particularly smooth, supple surface that not only looks high-quality but also provides a pleasant grip.
Suitable for left and right handed users.
