The santoku is a widely used all-purpose knife for meat, fish, and vegetables. This knife has a hagane core, so it offers excellent sharpness while remaining relatively easy to care for. Since the edge itself is hagane, it is best to wipe away moisture frequently during use.
This knife features double-edged warikomi construction, combining sharpness with ease of use. A good option for those who want the crisp cutting feel of carbon steel without moving fully into a traditional all-carbon blade.
The knife has been sharpened, so it is ready to use immediately upon arrival. Please handle with care when unpacking. The price includes the sharpening fee.
It features the engravings "正澄作" (Masazumi) and "本割込" (Hon-Warikomi).
SHARPENED by a Japanese Sharpener. Razor sharp. The sharpener is in Kyoto, the traditional city in Japan as you know. You can use without maintenance. You don't need to pay maintenance costs after receiving. If any, please feel free to ask, English available.
