The rugged hammered finish adds to the appeal. It looks like a knife that's earned its place in the kitchen, with just enough attitude to stand out without trying too hard. Best of all, it's as practical as it is handsome. Crafted from stainless molybdenum vanadium steel with a 50:50 V bevel, the Okimoto Saba knife is refreshingly low maintenance. It sharpens easily, holds its edge impressively well for it's price and shrugs off the demands of everyday cooking. It's the sort of knife you'll reach for every night, not because you have to, but because all of your old kit suddenly feels second best.
