The Sakai Takayuki Nanairo is a Japanese chef's knife that can be used in professional kitchens. It is perfect for people who are just getting started with Japanese knives because it doesn't require any special care because it is made of modern materials. The Sakai Takayuki gyuto chef's knife has a 21-cm-long blade made of VG10 steel. The "gold standard" to which this grade of steel is thought to correspond is represented by the "G" (for "gold"). Takefu Special Steel, located in Fukui, Japan, produces VG-10 steel. This steel is very resistant to corrosion and keeps its edge for a very long time. The "wa"-shaped handle of the knife is composed of ABS plastic. These handles are made by artisans by hand. This knife has a distinctive Retro Gold handle that looks like antique wood.
