Akira-Saku
Akira-Saku Knives
Akira-Saku knives combine strong carbon steel blades with elegant oak handles, making them a standout addition to any kitchen. Each knife is meticulously hand-forged in Japan by expert blacksmith Shoji Yoshida, who creates every blade entirely by hand. Yoshida-san intentionally leaves the steel unpolished, giving each knife a distinctive, rustic character that highlights its craftsmanship.
The handles are crafted from premium oak wood, offering both beauty and a comfortable, balanced grip. Beyond their striking appearance, Akira-Saku knives are exceptionally sharp, durable, and practical for everyday culinary tasks.
This collection includes a wide variety of shapes and sizes, allowing you to find the perfect tool for any preparation. Choose from petty, gyuto, nakiri, and bunka knives, each designed to deliver precision and performance for both home cooks and professional chefs.
Find the Perfect Akira-Saku Knife for Your Cooking Style
In our collection, you’ll find knife styles suited to different tasks in the kitchen. The petty knife is compact and agile, ideal for peeling, trimming, and other precise work. For all-around versatility, the gyuto is the go-to chef’s knife, handling everything from slicing vegetables to portioning meat. And when presentation matters, the long, narrow blade of the sujihiki ensures clean, effortless slices of fish, roasts, and poultry.
Each Akira-Saku knife is forged from either White #2 or Blue #2 carbon steel for a keen edge that sharpens easily and holds up to regular use. Paired with oak, they strike a balance between traditional craftsmanship and everyday practicality.
