The Takamura Santoku kitchen knife with a 170 mm blade is extremely handy and has a universal application for various culinary tasks. It is the Japanese equivalent of a classic chef’s knife. Takamura Chromax Japanese knives are known for their perfect workmanship and very high quality. They successfully combine functionality with attention to detail. Chromax stainless steel is used to make the core, surrounded by soft steel with protective properties. Chromax is a new steel that is used in the production of kitchen knives, because it is characterized by ease of sharpening and long-lasting sharpness. Takamura’s goal was to produce a series of knives with high cutting performance, and it can certainly be confirmed that he achieved this goal. The special Tsuchime finishing method gives the collection a unique hammered character. The blades have been hardened, as a result of which their hardness has reached a level of 60-62 HRC. Their exceptional sharpness is due to manual sharpening and the fact that they are very thin. The handle, which fits perfectly with the whole, is made of black pakka wood. Each knife is packed in a decorative gift box.
