This Santoku knife is a beautiful and functional addition to your kitchen. Each blade features a total of 67 layers of steel.
These layers consist of two out layers made of 316/316L Damascus Stainless Steel and a single inner core made of 10Cr15CoMoV Steel. First making the two outer layers with the 33 layers for each side, forming the Raindrop Damascus pattern, are then hammered to create the beautiful but ancient medieval times look and feel. This sheaths the primary cutting edge in a protective layer of rust resistant steel for greater longevity while maintaining a strong central core.
The 10Cr15CoMoV Steel used in the core is only hardened to a 58-62 HRC on the Rockwell scale which allows for the edge to be very hard but not hard enough to be too brittle. This is important because it allows for the edge to be very fine but not wear out too quickly with normal usage.
The outer 316/316L Damascus Stainless Steel serves two purposes. The primary purpose is to protect the blade core from corrosion. The second purpose is to provide an aesthetically pleasing Damascus pattern on the outer section of the blade.
The handle features a lovely dark Pakka wood with silver accents. This creates a good contrast between the handle, Damascus pattern and the rest of the knifes construction.
The handle design itself is more round with a slight taper towards the blade. This allows the handle to sit in the hand more naturally, swelling out to fill the palm of the hand making for better control and comfort.
The 7 inch Santoku knife is best used for chopping, mincing, and dicing. This makes it especially useful for dealing with vegetables, including those that give the Chef knife trouble. It can also be used on meat to produce nice thin slices.
This Damascus Santoku knife just might become one ofyourfavorite kitchen knives, if not your favorite kitchen knife.
