[About VG10 Stainless Steel]

VG10 is a high-performance Japanese stainless steel widely used for kitchen knives. With relatively high carbon and ample chromium, plus elements like molybdenum, vanadium, and cobalt, it offers fine grain, strong edge retention, and good resistance to rust and staining. Proper heat treatment allows VG10 to take a keen edge, stay durable for daily prep, and remain reasonably easy to resharpen making it a popular “best balance” choice for both pros and enthusiasts.


[About SETUKI]

SETUKI (切喜, “Joy of Cutting”) is Chef Partners’ in-house brand. We source blades from skilled Japanese craftsmen and complete the final sharpening and finish through our dedicated polishing partners, then engrave the SETUKI mark and ship worldwide. Makers may vary by steel, but our focus stays the same: consistent geometry, clean fit-and-finish, and real cutting performance without inflated brand premiums.


[Notes after Purchasing a Saya (Sheath)]

1. Avoid long-term storage inside the saya

Even if the blade is completely dry, keeping it sealed inside the saya for a long time can trap moisture and cause rust.For long-term storage, please remove the knife from the saya.


2. Be careful not to scratch the blade when inserting it

To help minimize scratches, the opening on the inside of our saya is finished with a velvet lining.

However, scratches may still occur due to careless insertion or removal, so please keep this in mind when purchasing.

As this is considered a matter of normal use and handling, we may not be able to repair or compensate for scratches that occur during use.
