Hand-forged in Hanoi, edge-finished in Tennessee—meet Dao Vua knives, the carbon-steel workhorses that punch far above their price.

Why chefs love Dao Vua

  • True handmade lineage: Each blade is forged in a courtyard workshop by bladesmiths trained in Vietnam’s black-sand steel tradition.
  • 52100 carbon steel (V3 line): Imported US ball-bearing steel hardened to ±60 HRC for keen, toothy bite and easy field touch-ups.
  • Kurouchi patina coat: Protects the cladding while giving every knife its rustic, one-of-a-kind face.
  • Affordable entry point: Experience artisan geometry at 30–40 % of comparable Japanese blades—perfect for line cooks and hobbyists.

Key specs (V3 Gyuto 150 mm)

Heel height 39 mm · Spine 2.2 mm · Weight 109 g · Even 50/50 grind.

Care & maintenance

52100 will patina and can rust if left wet. Rinse, hand-dry, and oil lightly.

Sharpened & ready

Add our Dao Vua Sharpening Service and we’ll ship your blade screaming-sharp at 2 µm—zero learning curve out of the box.

FAQs

Why are Dao Vua prices so low compared to Japanese brands?

Lower labor costs in Vietnam and a direct supply chain let us pass savings on without sacrificing handmade quality.

Will the kurouchi finish flake off?

The black forge scale may lighten with heavy scrubbing but won’t affect performance. A stable grey patina will develop over time.

Honesuki knife

Ive purchased the same knife fro. Knives togo and it doesnt come with a knife guard so i really appreciate that. I will say from all my research this brand is very overpriced but the provider of the actual knives are almost nonexistent. Other than that, it showed up promptly and is just as nice as my last.

Beater boner

I bought a Dao Vua because of the shape and the cost. I wanted a knife to practice boning, sharpening, and not have to worry about ruining a $350 knife. I know the limitations of the steel but I'm nowhere near as cautious as I would be with a Blue #2 boner. I've bought a couple of other types of Dao Vua for friends. For the price, the quality is amazing.

My first boner

I don't have a lot of money so I bought a low cost boning knife because I always get nervous about cutting around bone with my other knives. I also bought a strop. This is going to be my primary edge maintenance regimen.
