Sakai Takayuki knives are made in Sakai (Osaka Prefecture, Japan), one of the world's most renowned centers for the production of blades and cutlery. Sakai Takayuki knives are produced by the Japanese company Aoki Hamono Seisakusho Co., founded in 1942.

Today, Sakai Takayuki produces high-quality kitchen knives, crafted entirely by hand by artisans, drawing on over 600 years of Japanese swordsmithing experience. The Sakai-based company is proud to continue crafting knives using the same ancient techniques. Aogami Super (Blue Super), Shirogami #2 (White #2), Ginsan (Silver 3), and VG10 steels are used for production. Many Japanese Sakai Takayuki knives feature a multi-layer Damascus structure.
