PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This 3-piece Damascus kitchen knife set gives you three Japanese-style knives for daily kitchen prep and precision cutting work. The largest knife measures 12 inches overall, and the smallest measures 10 inches. Every handle is shaped from red pakka wood with steel bolsters and mosaic pins running through each piece. Full tang construction runs through every handle on all three knives.
This is the only Damascus knife set at JW Steel Crafts that pairs a Kiritsuke with a chef knife and utility knife using red pakka wood handles, steel bolsters, and mosaic pins in a matched 3-piece configuration.
What Is Inside the Set
-
Kiritsuke Knife — Pointed tip and flat edge for precise slicing, fish prep, and detailed cutting work, with the largest blade at 12 inches
-
Chef Knife — Primary chopping, slicing, and general daily kitchen prep tasks
-
Utility Knife — Mid-range trimming, portioning, and versatile prep tasks, with the smallest blade at 10 inches
The Kiritsuke handles precision slicing and detailed work. The chef's knife covers primary heavy prep. The utility knife manages everything in between. Together, they support a complete daily kitchen workflow without overlap.
Blade Performance
Every blade is forged from layered Damascus steel using high-carbon 1095 and 15N20 steel. The forge-welding and folding process creates the distinctive twisted wave surface pattern visible on each blade. No two blades carry an identical pattern due to the hand-forging process. The layered structure supports consistent edge retention and cutting strength through repeated daily use. Full tang construction runs through every handle and spreads weight evenly from blade tip to handle base for stable and controlled cutting across all three knives.
Handle Construction
Every handle is shaped from red pakka wood. Pakka wood is a natural hardwood compressed with resin under high pressure. It resists moisture, does not swell or crack, and holds its color and finish through daily kitchen use. Steel bolsters sit between each blade and handle to add front-end weight for better cutting balance and to protect fingers from sliding onto the blade during heavy prep. Mosaic pins run through every handle alongside the full tang to lock the handle scales firmly in place and add a clean decorative detail across all three knives.
Blade Care
Hand-wash each knife and dry it straight away after use. Do not put these knives in a dishwasher. Use wooden or soft plastic cutting boards to protect the edge. Apply a thin coat of food-grade mineral oil to the blades occasionally to maintain the surface between uses.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this set different from other 3-piece Damascus sets at JW Steel Crafts?
This is the only 3-piece set in the store with a Kiritsuke profile, red pakka wood handles, steel bolsters, and mosaic pins in one matched configuration.
What is a Kiritsuke knife used for?
The Kiritsuke has a pointed tip and flat edge for precise slicing, fish preparation, and detailed cutting tasks that a standard chef knife cannot handle as cleanly.
What is the blade size range across all three knives?
The Kiritsuke is the largest at 12 inches, and the utility knife is the smallest at 10 inches.
What are mosaic pins on a knife handle?
Mosaic pins are decorative metal inlays set through the handle scales to lock them firmly to the tang and add a handcrafted visual detail to each knife.
What do the steel bolsters do?
They add front-end weight for better cutting balance and stop fingers from sliding onto the blade during heavy chopping and slicing tasks.
Is red pakka wood durable for kitchen use?
Yes. Pakka wood is stabilized under resin pressure, making it moisture-resistant and far more durable than untreated wood handles through daily kitchen use.

I'm very pleased with this tent after having it for two years I've been in the rain I've been in the snow and it's held up pretty good but the cover that covers it did not hold up that good but the tent is perfect
Really enjoy the awning. Easy setup and got a little rain on the first trip. Easy to adjust for the run off. Very happy with the purchase!
I am one of the earliest customers Astrodome, I bought it and didn’t set it up for almost a year. By the time we set it up, we were blown away by the beauty of this space we purchased it on a mountain ledge in our glamping retreat in Lake County California two hours north of San as much as I love this space there are definitely some challenges with it in our location. It might work better than other locations, but we have had problems with the stakes, slipping and collapsing in the ground beneath and with the prevailing winds, it did stay up and it stays dry, even in tornadoes, but because the wind hits it from One Direction coming from the coast, this is definitely been a challenge for us we are going to try adding some weight inside it. The guests absolutely love this space keep in mind that with those skylights it’s going to get hot in the summertime but what’s nice is in the winter. It heats up almost passive solar. it’s also wonderful with a woodstove. A very cost effective alternative to a geodesic dome! If you want to experience it stay in ours, on Hipcamp.
I bought one of these at Scheels and absolutely love it. Great design, has everything you would ever need in a first aid/trauma/survival kit. Have one in all of my vehicles now. These guys truly thought of everything
A complete coverage of possibilities for my project and needs.
I love my new tent stove. Costumer service was also attentive and great to work with. Thank you.
The mounts work perfect with the truck bed rack I have on. Thank you for the excellent line of communication. You guys never kept me in the dark. I will ordering from you guys again.
I was wondering if you are able to sell just two extra mounts or do they just come in a set of six.
The color was even better in person. For well, looks well made and was easy to fold up and put into the carrying case. There was a bunch of colored plastic pieces from manufacturing on the mat, but I was able to vacuum it right up so be careful pulling it out.
Although it took a little extra time the delay very of my OVS Truck Topper was great. Good price too!
Fully engaged with customer, helped me get the crossbar I needed on time!
Product worked out great for my rack setup.
Order was delayed due to manufacturer delays, but my questions were answered and expectations on timing reset along the way. Cross bars were in perfect condition and work great!
I was in the market for a 3/4 length roof rack for my 4Runner as I wanted an upgrade from the OEM rails but still wanted to retain a somewhat OEM look. I am very happy that I went with the Sherpa Needle. It is a high quality rack with the best install method out of all the racks I looked at. I like that it is designed so you don’t have to deal with a mess of silicone when mounting. It is also nice that the fairing sits just above the roof instead of resting on it so that the paint does not get scratched. I was worried about wind noise because of this but I am happy to say there is no added wind noise at all.
I am also glad I purchased this rack through Live More Outside. I shopped around and they had the best pricing considering I was able to get a discount code, shipping was free, and they don’t charge sales tax. Shipping was prompt and I received the rack sooner than I thought I would.
Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and I will definitely come back to Live More Outside as I continue to build my rig.
By far one of the best customer service! Nathan has been a huge help on any questions and quick to respond! Live more outside is top notch. We are getting ready to hit our first outing with our new RTT. Cant wait to test it out. We also just purchased a 270 awning. I found one on another website but wanted to keep my business with live more outside. Nathan price matched and beat their price! We will continue to keep our business with this company!
