A smaller than usual Santoku. This shape is the Japanese multi purpose knife. Ideal for a home cook. Santoku means “three virtues” therefore it can be used on meats, fish and vegetables. Shirasagi is the Japanese word for “white egret” – the very graceful bird. This knife positively glides like a bird. A superb double bevelled, laminated, stainless steel knife with a central cutting core of SK-5 carbon steel. Due to the central core of high carbon steel the edge of the knife will discolour. Rockwell hardness 60 – 61. Made in Ono City near Miki. Important information; Carbon steel knives will oxidise and discolour. This is not a fault, it is a nature of the material. They must be dried after use and traditionally they are treated after use with camellia oil which inhibits the oxidation process. If the fact that carbon steel requires a little bit more maintenance is of concern then a laminated or folded steel knife should be considered. You can purchase rust erasers to clean the blades.

All Kin Knives come with a lifetime guarantee as long as they are treated correctly in accordance with our care instructions.
