Sakai Takayuki Nanairo: bridging the gap between tradition the 21st century

The Sakai Takayuki Nanairo kitchen knives are a little different than you're used to from other knives from Sakai Takayuki. We're not talking about the blade or the type of steel; both are not uncommon. It's the handle that's different. It's not made from fancy materials such as magnolia or buffalo horn, instead, these handles are made from plastic. That might feel a bit like blasphemy, but Sakai Takayuki still manages to make this very cool.
