Kitchen Knives

The Katana Saya Pearl Santoku Knife is a versatile and high-performance kitchen tool, expertly designed for those who appreciate the art of fine cooking. Featuring a 12cm VG-10 Damascus steel blade, this knife is built for precision and durability. VG-10 steel is one of the best materials used for kitchen knives, offering exceptional toughness, sharpness, and a Rockwell hardness of 60+ HRC. This results in a blade that retains its razor-sharp edge for longer periods, making it perfect for all your slicing, dicing, and chopping needs.The Santoku knife, a staple in Japanese kitchens, is named after the Japanese word for "three virtues" or "three ways." These knives are renowned for their ability to handle three essential kitchen tasks: slicing, dicing, and mincing. With its fluted blade, the Santoku also offers reduced friction and less sticking, making it easier to work with sticky foods like meat, vegetables, and fish. Its compact 12cm size ensures greater control, making it ideal for smaller tasks or those requiring intricate cutting.The knife's craftsmanship is exemplified by the 67 layers of VG-10 Damascus steel, which creates a stunning and elegant layered pattern along the blade. This process not only enhances the knife’s strength but also contributes to its aesthetic appeal, combining function with beauty. The sharp edge ensures clean and precise cuts with minimal effort, while the Pakkawood handle offers a comfortable and secure grip. The deep black finish of the handle strikes a balance between opulence and durability, ensuring a knife that is both beautiful and built to last.For added protection and convenience, the knife is housed in a wooden Saya, a traditional Japanese sheath designed to keep the blade safe and the user protected. This feature also helps preserve the sharpness of the blade, making it a great investment for long-term use.This knife is part of the Katana Saya Pearl Knife Range, which blends Eastern and Western blade-making traditions. Made in China with the precision of Japanese craftsmanship, the Santoku knife ensures exceptional cutting performance while adding a touch of elegance to your kitchen.
