VG10 steel production volume is limited due to various factors, however KYOKU's factory has tried the best to satisfy the needs every year so that we can handcraft each and every knife with Japanese made VG10 steel in China. **Q: What is the best method for sharpening this blade or other damascus blades? Is it better to frequently strple.it against a sharpening rod or?** A: VG10 steel will not "roll" it's edge like sotfter steel, so a honing rod will do next to nothing. The only way to sharpen hard steels are to use sharpening stones that are made for high-quality cutlery. VG10 keeps its edge extremely well so for the home chef you may only need to put it to a stone twice a year. A 1000 grit stone is course enough to remove very small chips from the edge, which are very easy to get with VG10. But to just bring back the razor edge a 5000-8000 grit stone is ideal. **Q: Does it have "made in china" stamped anywhere on it?** A: made in China usually means "junk" and supports the Chinese Communist Party. I don't buy anything made in China. Look at Swiss or German made **Q: can I purchase a sheath for an already owned knife?** A: It would be cheaper to get the knife dimensions and buy a generic sheath I still have the original one but for a kitchen knife I wouldn’t spend too much on a custom Sheath ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ most beautiful and sharp knife. delivery very fast good service *by R***U on 1 July 2024* I am always this branded company use knife good ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bon *by J***S on 23 November 2025* Bon ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Item exactly as described *by K***R on 7 September 2021* This product is invaluable around the kitchen ## Frequently Bought Together - KYOKU Chef Knife - 8"- Shogun Series Japanese VG10 Steel Core Hammered Damascus Blade Kitchen Knife - with Sheath & Case - KYOKU Nakiri Knife - 7" - Shogun Series - Japanese VG10 Steel Core Damascus Blade - with Sheath & Case --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/264719369-kyoku-chef-knife-8-shogun-series-japanese-style-vg10-steel](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/264719369-kyoku-chef-knife-8-shogun-series-japanese-style-vg10-steel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-10-01*
