CHARACTERISTICS

Rediscover Cooking

Rediscover the art of cooking with KOTAI knives. Experience the sharpness and precision of handcrafted blades made from the finest materials. Elevate your culinary creations to new heights with the perfect combination of tradition and modern innovation.

Lasting Performance

Japanese molybdenum stainless steel, thanks to its higher-than-average carbon content, helps the blade retain its edge for longer than regular knives. The addition of Chromium in the steel alloy makes the blade stainless and easy to use and maintain.

Ergonomically Engineered

The perfect weight distribution and hand-polished pakkawood handle have been designed for you to cut effortlessly through the toughest food without compromising on comfort.


KOTAI's Hashi Damascus collection offers Japanese knives forged from molybdenum stainless steel, easy to sharpen and ergonomic for everyday household use.

Japanese damascus steel (MVS10Cob), in addition to its aesthetic qualities, combines the advantages of a high-carbon steel with those of ‘softer’ steels, such as resistance to impact and corrosion.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the steel used for the blade? Will it rust?

This knife is made of 440C steel from Japan. 440C is a high-carbon stainless steel, meaning that it combines the property of high-carbon steel (very hard due to the high carbon content of 0.95%+ and the vacuum heat treatment, therefore very sharp and able to keep its edge for much longer than other steels) and stainless steel (ability to resist corrosion and stains). So the blade will not rust, but you have to care for it properly by washing it with soapy water and drying it quickly after using it.

Do not put it in the dishwasher or leave it to soak in the sink.

Is it worth buying this knife or should I just get a 30€ knife from Ikea?

A “cheap” knife will end up costing you more in the long run, because it can break or turn dull. Low quality steel will not keep a sharp edge no matter how many hours you waste on sharpening, and you will end up having to buy a new knife every year or so.

There are plenty of “cheap” knives that cannot perform to decent standards and very few options for chefs who are passionate about cooking, need the right tools to assist them in their career or hobby but are not willing to overspend on a brand name. Get your KOTAI knife today for a lifetime of safe and delicious cooking.
