Takahisa Damascus Santoku 180 mm Rosewood VG-10

The Santoku knife, borrowed from Japanese culinary tradition, is the equivalent of the Western chef’s knife and is characterized by its versatility in performing a variety of kitchen tasks. The name “Santoku” symbolically refers to “three virtues” – slicing, mincing, and dicing, which emphasizes its versatility. Its popularity among European chefs is growing due to its wide blade and compact size, which provide comfort and control during use. The Takahisa Damascus Rosewood knife series is a combination of aesthetics and practicality. The seventeen-layer Damascus steel used to create the blades, reinforced with a core of the renowned VG10 steel, known for its durability, creates a perfect cutting tool. The ‘Tsuchime’ technique not only enhances the beauty of the blades but also contributes to their unparalleled sharpness, reaching a hardness of 61+/-1 HRC, which provides exceptional cutting properties. The handle, inspired by classic Japanese design and made of elegant rosewood, guarantees a comfortable and stable grip, which is crucial for precise and safe knife use.
