Tsunehisa Shāpu シ ャ ー プ VG-10 santoku, Japanese traditional handle,

Double-sided sharpened and laminated (damascus) blade made of stainless steel with a core of Japanese VG-10 steel. The blade is extremely thin and manually sharpened and has no thickening, which makes sharpening on Japanese water stones very easy.

These knives are handmade in Echizen Japan. The VG-10 core steel is forged between two layers of softer steel, this outer layer is made of patterned steel, which gives a very nice damask pattern. This Suminagashi technique is unique to Japanese knives and is a demonstration of the special forging techniques from Japan. The outer layer ensures that the core steel is well protected against possible damage and oxidation. The outer layer also has a nice hammered (Tsuchime) pattern, which means that products do not stick to the blade as quickly.
