The most popular line of Nihonko kitchen knives from Sakai Kikumori is made from high-quality Japanese carbon steel. It has a carbon content of 0.95%, and the blades made from it achieve a high degree of hardness as a result of heat treatment: 63 HRC. Thanks to the mono-steel technique, the blades are made from a single piece of steel and are exceptionally easy to sharpen. In addition, they can maintain their sharpness for a long time, so they are perfect for intensive, everyday kitchen work. They are the best choice for all chefs and cooking enthusiasts who value functionality, convenience, and excellent performance in their kitchen knives. The Nihonko Series knives have a comfortable Pakka wood handle, which is durable and ergonomic. Due to the fact that the steel used to make the blades is not stainless, it is important to remember to care for the knives regularly (they should be washed and dried after each use).

One of Japan's leading manufacturers, Sakai Kikumori, offers excellent kitchen knives that are particularly suitable for professional use. They have special features resulting from Sakai's long history of knife manufacturing (a tradition dating back over 600 years!). The renowned Sakai Kikumori brand works with the best sharpeners and blacksmiths, thanks to which it can offer us a wide selection of modern, Western-style knives, as well as traditional Japanese kitchen knives.
