Blade Type

The Santoku knife, a classic in Japanese kitchens, translates to "three virtues," symbolizing its proficiency in slicing, dicing, and mincing. With a shorter, versatile blade and a balanced design, it's ideal for a range of tasks, from cutting meat to chopping vegetables, making it a beloved all-purpose tool.

Steel Type

Japanese Ginsan steel, also known as Silver-3 or G3, is an underrated high-grade semi-stainless steel loved by many for being in the ‘goldilocks zone’ of knife steels. It holds a very respectable edge, but is effortless to sharpen. It is considered the semi-stainless version of White 2. It is the knife steel of choice for many home cooks and professional chefs alike.

Recommended Maintenance

Store it in a dry environment using magnetic strips, knife rolls, or sayas. Avoid hitting hard or frozen objects and twisting the blade while cutting. These knives are not dishwasher safe. Clean with hot water and a soft cloth, and dry immediately after use to prevent rust spots on the high carbon steel. For more information please read the blog below.

It is a very sharp kitchen knife.

This is an undisputed kitchen knife that is worth the money you spend. You will end up spending less money on this one anyway. The hammer pattern makes cutting vegetables much easier and it stays sharp for a long time. I didn't dare to sharpen it myself, so I had to find a technician to sharpen it for me because I was afraid it wouldn't be as sharp as before. Finally, be careful about rust.

Knife arrived in a short time and is very sharp. I little larger than my prior one, though as I ordered. Would recommend this company to buy through.
