A.G. Russell Knives

KAI was established in 1908 in Seki City, Japan's ancient samurai swordmaking capital. Since that time KAI has become one of the best blade makers in Japan.

This line has the look and benefits of Damascus steel but without it rusting problems. The Damascus-look blade reduces sticking and causes less damage to the food being cut.
