Increda Handmade Japanese Chef’s Knife - 13.0" Overall - 8.4" VG10 Damascus Steel Blade, Carbon Fiber Composite Handle, Full Tang Fixed Blade Professional Chef Knife with Leather Sheath, Pro Knife Sharpening & Personalization

Damascus Steel and Blade Detail

The blade is carefully made by combining VG10 & 15N20 steel through a process of layering, welding, hammering, and shaping. This process creates a distinctive Damascus pattern across every blade, giving each Increda Chef Knife its own unique appearance similar to a fingerprint. Each knife is individually handcrafted and visually distinctive.

Damascus steel is known for its strength, hardness, and edge retention. The blade is oil quenched at approximately 2100°F and rapidly cooled, with the process repeated twice to develop hardness throughout the steel. The finished blade achieves approximately HRC 62–65 on the Rockwell Scale for dependable cutting performance and long-term edge retention.

Scales & Handle

The elegant handle is crafted from carbon fiber composite, selected for its lightweight feel, durability, and modern appearance. The handle is carefully fitted and finished to provide a secure and comfortable grip while complementing the balance of the blade. Full tang construction extends the blade steel through the handle for added strength, stability, and control.
