Benefits

A blade of 63 layers of Damascus steel: The blade is 63-layer Damascus steel, with stainless steel layers on the outside and a core between them, as the diagram in the listing shows. The layers give the blade a rippled pattern and a clean, stainless surface.

A molybdenum-vanadium steel core inside stainless layers: The listing names the blade material as molybdenum-vanadium steel, shown in the diagram as the core between two stainless layers. That structure pairs a core made for cutting with outer layers that resist staining.

A laminated reinforced wood handle with three rivets: The handle is laminated reinforced wood in a dark red-brown, held by three rivets and joined to the blade with a steel bolster. The laminated build resists moisture better than plain wood and keeps its shape.

A 160 mm blade at a listed weight of 140 grams: The listing gives a 160 mm blade and a body weight of 140 g. Those figures tell you exactly how the knife will handle before you order it from us.

A slim 160 mm boning knife for trimming and deboning: The blade is 160 mm long in a slim boning shape for trimming meat and working around bone. At about 140 g it is light, and the narrow blade gives close control around joints and fat.

A knife the listing states is made in Japan: The listing gives Japan as the country of origin, and the maker is based in Tsubame, Niigata, a city known for metalware. We ship every knife directly from Japan, packed carefully for the journey.

How to Use

Who Is This For

The Kyoto-Damascus Cook: You want a layered Damascus boning that stays light and sharp. A plain single-steel blade feels heavy and loses its edge, and that is not your fault. Our Kyoto boning gives you a 160 mm blade of 63-layer Damascus steel around a molybdenum-vanadium core and a laminated wood handle, at 140 g. The listing states that it is made in Japan. Choose it when you trim meat and work around bone with a slim, light blade, and you will have the facts you need before you order.
