Knife guy here...yea price is a little high. Seki is a legit knife making region though. I prefer Sakai. Its a beautiful hammered knife. VG10 is great, most people don't want to deal with rusting shiro or aogami anyways. Very nice looking knife either way. I would say worth it only if you know the knife maker is upper to top tier. Otherwise, check other outlets. One canadian online store currently has their semi-annual sale going on now.

I have been using Japanese knives and Western-style knives for decades. Then I switched to Chinese cleavers. I'm not going back to Japanese or Western knives. Once you learn the proper technique of the Chinese cleaver, you really only need 2 for the entire kitchen. Vegetable and bone cleaver; well, maybe a tiny knife for your fruit or steak.

Oh someone knows their stuff here. Don't see Sakai mentioned much for knives outside of Japan.

Many of the better mono-steels use the same sintered powder metallurgy process, which results in a forged flat sheet of the final metal. But VG10 and "damascus" is a performance contradiction and really only serves for cosmetics. VG10 is a semi-stainless, fairly tough and durable steel but only medium hardness of 58-61 (for kitchen knives) which can serve perfectly well as a mini blade on its own. Think of it as one step above Solingen steel. At this price, it behoves having a harder carbon steel in the center which can take a thinner profile and apex.

Given the price, this is somehow more ridiculous than some of Cold Steel's more ridiculous swords.

It's not that they don't have good products but there's...a lot of silly ones.
