It does no fit western style knives with a full heel (e.g. Henkel, Wustof and Sabatier). For single bevel, odd shaped or oversized knives such as Takeda, please fill out a Custom Saya form.
Saya Sizing
Caramel Maple
This Big Leaf Maple has been heat treated achieve a naturally dark color without any toxic dyes or chemicals. It gets a coat of mineral oil for protection and to bring out the color. It is an optimal density so the blade’s edge is not dulled through storage and carbon knives should not rust if properly dried before storage.
Pin Hole Options
For best fit, we recommend drilling saya holes with both knife and saya in hand. The pin is used to keep the knife as snug in the saya as possible so if you choose the Pin Hole - Drilled option we will drill the hole where it will accommodate most knives, but will most likely leave room for your knife to move around. Our saya pins fit into a 3/16” hole. Drill bits can be purchased here
