As each knife is individually hand-forged, slight variations in size and weight may occur. These differences are a natural result of traditional craftsmanship and do not affect cutting performance or quality.
This Santoku knife features an Aogami #2 carbon steel core clad with stainless steel. It combines the exceptional sharpness and edge retention of Aogami steel with the ease of maintenance provided by stainless cladding, making it ideal for everyday use.

It performs well in a wide range of kitchen tasks, including slicing, chopping, and push-cutting. Its practical size and excellent maneuverability make it comfortable and well-balanced for home kitchen use.
The blade features a traditional Kurouchi finish, preserving the natural forged texture created during the blacksmithing process. This rustic finish gives each knife a bold and distinctive appearance. Subtle variations from one knife to another reflect the character of true handcrafted work.
The handle is finished with indigo lacquer, offering excellent water resistance, durability, and a secure grip. Its deep indigo color and refined appearance combine traditional beauty with everyday functionality.
Combining exceptional cutting performance with ease of use, this Santoku knife is suitable for everything from daily meal preparation to more detailed cutting tasks. A practical and beautiful knife designed to be enjoyed for many years.
