Saya | Japanese Kitchen Knife Sheath
A saya is a Japanese knife sheath, or knife cover typically crafted of timber. Along with physically protecting you and your kitchen knives, they also help to keep the knife blade dry, preventing surface rust (especially useful for high carbon Japanese kitchen knives). It may seem insignificant, but this small investment will increase the life-span of your kitchen knife exponentially, along with aiding in sharpness longevity.
When saya are purchased individually, the pin is drilled at a general location able to fit most kitchen knives. When bought along with one of our Japanese kitchen knives, the saya will be custom fit to ensure perfect knife placement.
