Higuchi VG10 Damascus Serrated Knife 240mm – Tsuchime – Pakka Wood Handle
The Higuchi VG10 Damascus Serrated Knife 240mm is a Japanese-style bread knife combining a long serrated edge with an attractive Damascus blade and Tsuchime hammered finish. Designed for clean, controlled slicing, it is an excellent choice for bread, pastries and other foods with a firm exterior and soft interior.
Its VG10 stainless steel, distinctive blade finish and traditional-style pakka wood handle make it both a practical everyday knife and a striking addition to a Japanese knife collection.
VG10 Damascus Blade
VG10 stainless steel is widely used in quality Japanese kitchen knives for its balance of sharpness, edge retention and corrosion resistance. The visible Damascus pattern adds character to the blade, while the polished cutting area contrasts beautifully with the hammered upper section.
Tsuchime Hammered Finish
The Tsuchime finish gives each blade a distinctive textured appearance inspired by traditional Japanese knife making. Combined with the Damascus pattern, it creates a unique design that makes this serrated knife stand out from a conventional bread knife.
240mm Serrated Blade
The long 240mm serrated edge is ideal for slicing through large loaves without crushing the softer interior. The teeth grip the crust and allow the blade to work efficiently with a smooth sawing motion.
Ideal for sourdough, baguettes, artisan breads, cakes, pastries, sandwiches and large soft-skinned produce.
Pakka Wood Handle
The pakka wood handle provides a comfortable and secure grip while complementing the traditional appearance of the blade. Pakka wood combines the natural look of wood with improved resistance to moisture and regular kitchen use.
