A set with two strengths. Our precision set combines two essential knives from the AKANE series. The chef's knife delivers powerful cuts and supports fluid rocking movements. The all-purpose knife handles delicate tasks such as herbs, fruit, and smaller pieces of meat.
Both knives are made of 73 layers of Damascus steel with a powder steel core and feature a finely polished rosewood handle. Thus, they combine sharpness, robustness, and an elegant appearance.
Included in the set:
1x AKANE chef's knife
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.
In everyday life, chefs constantly switch between large and fine cutting tasks – blunt or unsuitable knives cost time and precision.
The AKANE set of two solves this problem: The chef's knife performs powerful cuts and supports fluid rocking movements for meat, fish, and vegetables. The agile all-purpose knife perfectly complements it for smaller tasks—from herbs and fruit to delicate fillets. Together, they form a duo that leaves no gap unturned.
Ideal for ambitious cooks looking for a set that combines strength 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.
Vacuum and cryogenic heat treatment create an extremely fine microstructure with exceptional hardness. At 62-64 HRC on the Rockwell scale, the blade is among the most resilient and powerful cutting tools in its class. The niobium content in the core gives the blade extreme sharpness and maximum wear resistance.
The Japanese V-grind at 15° per side guarantees uncompromising precision. Exception: the bread knife uses a single-sided 30° serrated grind.
The characteristic hammered finish gives the Damascus knife a distinctive character and underlines its artisanal aesthetic.
Half bolster and full tang ensure balanced weight distribution, increased stability and maximum durability with intensive use.
Handle
The ergonomically shaped handle made from dark, fine rosewood sits comfortably and securely in the hand, even during longer use.
Each handle is finely polished several times to achieve an especially smooth, supple surface that feels premium and comfortable to hold.
Suitable for left- and right-handed users.
