SHAN ZU KITCHEN KNIFE WITH 18 CM JAPANESE SANTOKU KNIVES

The Kotai santoku is forged with 440C steel, a premium steel that combines a high carbon content for hardness and edge durability with the optimum amount of chromium to prevent oxidation. Ultra Sharp: Japanese 440C high carbon stainless steel blade (0.95% carbon for a blade 3x harder and sharper, and that stays that way longer). Slice all types of food effortlessly for a clean and precise cut that preserves all the flavour of the ingredients. Honeycomb Blade: A modern interpretation of the traditional Japanese hammered blade, this manufacturing technique reduces friction to allow food to stick less to the blade when cutting. Comfort and Precision: Perfectly balanced, the Santoku is the favourite knife of Japanese chefs. It is a utility knife whose ideal weight allows you to cut both the hardest foods without straining the wrist and to make very precise cuts such as julienne or brunoise. Durable and Hygienic: Rounded handle in hand-polished pakkawood for a firm and comfortable grip, even with wet hands, right-handed and left-handed. Pakkawood is a technical wood that is water resistant and helps prevent bacteria and splinters normally found in wooden handles. The hidden full tang - a single piece of steel extending from the tip of the blade to the end of the handle - gives the Santoku ideal balance and exceptional durability. Easy To Maintain: Blade forged from a unique alloy, Japanese 440C steel containing 17% chromium to resist rust wash after wash.
