GAITAI Carving
The Gaitai Series Carving Knife by Kansai Knives is the embodiment of precise manufacturing, elegance, and high performance. Forged from 67 layers of Damascus steel with a VG-10 steel core, the blade delivers remarkable sharpness, edge retention, and durability. Each knife undergoes advanced vacuum heat treatment and deep freezing, resulting in a hardness rating of 60±1 HRC—the ideal balance of strength and flexibility for precise carving. The layered Damascus design ensures every blade is unique, with patterns that are as captivating as they are functional.
