Santoku knife Miyabi 5000MCD 67 - 18 cm

Japanese Santoku knife from the Miyabi 5000MCD 67 series features an extremely hard core made of MicroCarbide powder steel to maintain the blade edge at optimal sharpness. Santoku is the best-selling Japanese type of knife, and its name means the "Three Virtues," referring to meat, fish, and vegetables. The core is surrounded by 132 outer layers of steel, creating a unique Damascus pattern on the blade. The cutting edge, crafted using the Honbazuke technique, is symmetrical, allowing it to be used by both right- and left-handed users. It does not have a finger guard, so the full length of the cutting edge can be utilized. The handle is made from high-quality black ash wood, providing better control and effortless handling. To keep your knife in top condition, please handle with care. Hand washing and honing on a whetstone are recommended. Avoid using glass, ceramic, or stone cutting boards. **FEATURES** - Corrosion resistant - Blade made of 133 layers of steel with a MicroCarbide core for a hardness of 66 Rockwell - Serrated edge simplifies slicing bread - Traditional D-shaped handle made from black ash wood - Beautiful Damascus steel pattern Manufacturer information
