Kagemitsu ミノガワ Minogawa Santoku

Double-sided sharpened and laminated (Sanmai) blade of non-stainless steel with a core of Japanese Aogami Super steel (Blue paper 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 made in the Ishizuchi forge in Tosa, Japan. The Aogami Super core steel is forged between two layers of softer steel, this outer layer is made of hammered steel which gives a very nice Tsuchime pattern which makes products less likely to stick to the blade.The outer layer ensures that the core steel is well protected against possible damage and oxidation.

You can order this knife with the beautiful engraving (with flower) or without engraving (or with your own name in Kanji characters), please check your choice carefully during checkout!
