Sheaths & Saya

What is a saya?

Saya are wooden sheathes that keep your knife and you safe when taking your knife out of the kitchen drawer. They're also useful for transporting your knife comfortably and reducing risk to yourself and others. For short-term storage, they also help with rust prevention.

Sakai Ichimonji Mitsuhide stocks a variety of sheaths & Japanese-style saya to suit your kitchen knives. 

Our range incorporates traditional Japanese wood saya with locking pins through to Western-style leather sheaths, which are slightly more universal. From gyuto to santoku over to deba and yanagiba, we've got saya of all kinds!

*NOTE: Our Wooden Sheaths (Saya) are only available for knives purchased in-store or online in the same order. See our saya policy here.

Our saya are handcrafted from magnolia wood by our skilled craftsmen for each knife individually to ensure a perfect fit. We test these saya before shipping them out to ensure the fit is good.

If you buy a saya without its linking knife, we cannot test it. It might not fit your knife correctly. In that case, you will need to adjust it by yourself. Such orders also cannot be canceled or returned after delivery.
