Tojiro GAI – VG10 Core Damascus Utility Knife

The Tojiro GAI series features a VG10 premium Japanese knife steel core, forged with 37 layers of alternating low- and high-carbon stainless steel to create a striking Damascus pattern. The uniquely rugged handle is crafted from linen micarta and secured with stainless steel hex bolts, giving it a modern, tactical feel — truly one of a kind.

The name “GAI” is inspired by the Japanese word for “armor,” reflecting the handle’s robust and protective design.
