Kai Shun Kagerou Damascus Santoku Knife 18 cm

Santoku Knife Kai Shun Kagerou Damascus 18 cm

A traditional Japanese knife produced for centuries in Seki, Japan, with the same design.
The term "santoku" literally means "three good things," referring to the tasks typically performed in the kitchen: slicing, dicing, and chopping.

It is therefore the Japanese equivalent of the European chef's knife.

Knives in the Shun Kagerou range are crafted using an innovative forging technique, where two types of steel are combined to form a blade with 70 layers of steel. The combination of flexible and durable VG2 steel and extremely strong VG10 steel guarantees exceptional sharpness and long-lasting edge retention.
The Composite Blade Technology gives the blades excellent, long-lasting cutting performance and a unique design. This new blade design consists of two parts: the upper part features an exceptional mirror-polished finish and a delicate Dual Core Damascus steel pattern. The octagonal handle, crafted from marbled gray Pakka wood with double stainless steel bolsters, is moisture-resistant, giving the knife a warm and premium look.

The handle end features the Shun logo.

Important: Not dishwasher safe; hand wash only without harsh detergents.
