Yoshihiro VG-10 46 Layers Santoku Chef Knife

Yoshihiro Cutlery, specializing in handcrafted premium Japanese kitchen knives, offers the Yoshihiro 46 Layers Hammered Damascus Santoku Multi-purpose Chef Knife made in Japan. This Santoku knife is handcrafted by artisans with centuries of lineage and tradition in Japanese swordsmithing techniques. The VG-10 steel core of the blade is forged and hammered with 46 layers of Damascus steel, providing exceptional sharpness and durability.

The VG-10 steel core has a high hardness level, exceeding that of most other stainless steel cutlery on the market. The blade is clad in softer Damascus steel, adding toughness and durability while eliminating friction and preventing food from sticking. The knife is stain-resistant, allowing for extended use without worry of rust buildup.

The thin blade of the Yoshihiro VG-10 Hammered Damascus Series offers a sharp edge and lightweight feel for easy maneuverability. A protective magnolia knife sheath is included to protect the blade when not in use. The traditional Japanese Wa-style octagonal handle provides a lightweight and ergonomic grip for seamless use.

To maintain its sharp edge, sharpening and honing should be done with water whetstones. The knife should be hand washed and dried immediately after use with acidic ingredients. Avoid using the knife on hard objects like bones, nutshells, or frozen foods.

The Santoku knife is known for its versatility and popularity among chefs for its ability to handle a variety of tasks. Made with pride in Japan, this handcrafted knife combines performance, beauty, and extraordinary value. Elevate your cooking experience with the Yoshihiro 46 Layers Hammered Damascus Santoku Multi-purpose Chef Knife.
