The Santoku Japaneese Chef Knife from the Blacksmith series is a special kitchen knife for both meat and vegetable. It is ideal for finely chopping and cutting. The blackened blade of a knife looks like a lunar surface, full of with craters. It creates a special air cushion when cutting and prevents sticking of pieces of vegetables or meat to the blade. This greatly facilitates the work whether you are a professional chef or just a culinary amateur.
The blade is made of Japanese AUS-8 steel, with the addition of silicon, vanadium and molybdenum to the alloy. Optimum hardness - 58 HRC provides high strength and stability of the cutting edge, sharpened on water stones with a grit of 5000 grit. A razor-sharp blade does not need to be straightened and sharpened for a long time, but requires proper care - it must be washed by hand immediately after use and wiped dry, stored in a dry place. It is also necessary to periodically lubricate it with clove oil (supplied in the kit) so that a protective film remains on the surface and corrosion does not form.
The handle of the knife is made of a technological composite - micarta, which is highly wear-resistant and practical. The handle is pleasant to the touch and has a beautiful Japanese design, is not afraid of moisture and aggressive environments. The design of the knife is balanced by an antibacterial steel bolster. It also closes the joints between the blade and the handle, preventing the accumulation of dirt.
