This is a secret line of Saji that I have been working on for a long long time ---- Takeshi Saji signature diamond damascus pattern R2 knife with Nishihara (Tanaka) coke-bottle style handle!

Essentailly I asked Saji-san to provide the blade and Master Sadao Nishihara to put on his signature coke-bottle shaped western handle using my favouriate timber: Australia Ringed Gidgee.  

We all know Master Saji well, but who is Master Nishihara? Well, if you ever handled a Tanaka R2 western line (arguably the best western handle from Japan) then you probably haved already handled Master Nishihara's work. Master Nishihara was the main handle maker for Tanaka western line after late Kazuyuki, until he become semi-retired eariler last year. 

 

 

 

Becuase of my great relationship with both Saji-san and Nishihara-san (they two are good friends as well), I was able to come up with the idea of this unique K&S exclusive product. Combining with my favourite exotic timber: Australian Ringed Gidgee, I am proud to offer you another unique and exciting product!

 

====================================

Takeshi Saji, who is famous for his exceptional work of hunting knives is now also forging some of the best artisan kitchen knives as well. Obtained the highest award of Dento-Kougeishi in 1994, he is the leading bladesmith in the Echizen district. His work is highly artistic, utilizing some of the most exotic traditional skills and materials to perfect his work. For example, he is famous for using the R2/SG2 powder metallurgy steel to forge his high-end blades, which can reach a mighty HRC 64; for handles, he uses rare natural materials like stag bone, and desert ironwood; he also use the traditional Makie Urushi (one of the most exotic traditional Japanese lacquer painting technique, see here) in some of his limited runs.    

 

I have long wanted one of Saji-san's R2/SG2 blades, way before I get into the knife vending business, but unfortunately when I was ready to buy, everywhere was showing me the "OUT-OF-STOCK", proving it is in a such high demand with limited supply to the market. So the first thing after I started K&S, was to see if I can get some of his blade. Luckily through our strong channel, I was able to finally get some of his "most wanted" blades: R2/SG2 core diamond damascus pattern sanmai blade with desert ironwood handle and VG10 core damascus with stag handle.

 

K&S is proud to carry Takeshi Saji knife.

Stylish and Functional Bar Cart, Perfect for any Space!
Color: Black, Size: 33.9"W
I recently added the VASAGLE Bar Cart in black to my home, and it has quickly become a standout piece in my kitchen and dining area! The sleek black frame combined with the mirrored shelves gives it a modern, elegant look that complements any decor. Assembly was straightforward, with clear instructions and all necessary tools included. Once put together, the cart feels sturdy and well-constructed, perfect for daily use or special occasions. The design is incredibly functional. The wine holders securely store my favorite bottles, while the glass holders keep my stemware organized and within easy reach. The mirrored shelves not only add a touch of luxury but are also spacious enough to hold everything from bar tools to serving platters. Its mobility is a game-changer! The wheels roll smoothly, making it effortless to move from the kitchen to the dining room or even the patio for entertaining guests. The locking mechanism ensures stability when you need it. Overall, this bar cart has exceeded my expectations in both style and functionality. Whether you're hosting a party or just want a convenient spot to organize your wine and cocktail essentials, this cart is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!
