Gyuto Damascus VG10 Ebony Wood Handle pairs a VG10 stainless core with layered Damascus cladding to deliver a precise, kitchen-ready edge, clean food release, and refined aesthetics. Proper heat treatment and tempering give the blade disciplined hardness for long edge retention while preserving enough toughness to resist micro-chipping, and the stainless matrix provides confident corrosion resistance through humid prep and acidic ingredients. In hand, it moves with quiet authority, the edge tracking smoothly through dense proteins and crisp aromatics with a controlled, silky bite that stays keen service after service.

A balanced gyuto profile with a fine, tapering tip supports accurate detail work, while the broad belly and stable spine invite efficient push-cuts, draw-cuts, and rocking when the board demands tempo. The grind promotes low-friction passes and predictable steering, encouraging safer technique through reduced binding and a consistent, straight cut line that keeps slices uniform from heel to tip.

Built for daily durability, the Damascus cladding shields the core and maintains a polished finish, while the ebony handle offers dense stability, secure indexing, and fatigue-resistant comfort during long prep. 

Japanese Double-sided Whetstone Include Non-slip Base

This set includes a double-sided sharpening stone designed for consistent, controlled sharpening. The non-slip base keeps the stone stable, helping you maintain angle and pressure—two keys to great results. Here's why it’s valuable for durability & performance:

  • Restores a crisp, lasting edge: Regular stone sharpening resets the blade’s edge geometry, bringing back smooth, effortless cutting.

  • Extends the life of the knives: Maintaining the edge on a whetstone reduces the need for aggressive grinding later, helping preserve blade thickness over time.

  • Improves cutting performance after sharpening: Expect noticeably cleaner slices, less resistance through dense ingredients, and more control for fine prep.

  • Stable, safer sharpening: The non-slip base minimizes movement, helping you sharpen more evenly and protect the blade edge from uneven wear.

Result after proper sharpening: sharper bite, smoother glide, and better edge longevity, especially important for high-performance steels like Aogami.

Treat this as a premium stainless blade with an etched Damascus finish and a natural ebony wood handle: keep it clean, dry, and protected from harsh chemicals and soaking. The blade won’t need special patina care, but the finish and wood benefit from gentle handling and prompt drying.

  • Hand wash only; mild soap, soft sponge.
  • Dry immediately—especially around the handle junction.
  • Don’t soak; protect the ebony from prolonged moisture.
  • Avoid abrasive pads/powders that can haze the etched pattern.
  • Use a wood or soft plastic cutting board.
  • Store on a magnetic strip or in a saya/sheath to protect the edge.
  • Keep away from dishwashers and high heat.
  • Wipe during prep to reduce residue and improve release.

Whetstone Care Guide

  • After sharpening, rinse off the slurry, wipe clean, and let the stone air dry completely in a shaded, ventilated area.
  • Avoid direct heat/sun exposure (can cause cracking).
  • Flatten the stone periodically to keep the surface even for consistent sharpening results.
