About This

• Japanese AUS-6 High-Carbon Molybdenum Stainless Steel: Heat-treated to 56–58 HRC and hand-sharpened to a 15-degree double bevel edge. The AUS-6 steel structure prioritizes blade toughness, making this santoku knife highly chip-resistant during rigorous daily prep. It responds quickly to standard whetstones for fast resharpening, while its molybdenum content ensures lasting corrosion resistance for low-maintenance kitchen use.
• 75+ Years of Cutlery Heritage: Noshu Masamune has crafted kitchen knives in Seki City since 1947—Japan's knife-making capital with a 700-year legacy. This 6.7-inch santoku chef knife is sized for home cooking, with a flat edge optimized for straight up-and-down chopping—intuitive to learn and beginner-friendly. Delivers precise control for dicing onions, slicing vegetables, and mincing herbs.
• Tsuchime Finish & Wider Blade: The hammered surface creates air pockets to reduce drag for easy food release. At approx. 2mm thin, the blade reduces drag for cleaner, more precise cuts. The extra-wide blade profile acts as a natural knuckle guard and built-in scoop—transfer ingredients directly from board to pan. Rounded tip improves control for detail work.
• Full Tang Knife & Ergonomic Grip: Continuous steel runs through the triple-riveted resin handle, eliminating blade separation risk. The curved handle tail prevents slipping, while the design accommodates pinch, point, and regular grips for steady balance. This structural support excels during varied tasks—cleanly slicing tomatoes, coarse chopping dense carrots and potatoes, or executing fine julienne and brunoise cuts with sustained control.
• Premium Japanese Knife Gift: Arrives in a sleek black gift box with traditional Japanese Kanji design—a standout chef knife gift for men, women, and dads. Ideal for Mother's Day, Father's Day, Valentine's Day, birthdays, weddings, Christmas, and housewarmings. Care: Hand wash only, dry immediately after use, sharpen with a whetstone. Do not use on bones or frozen foods.
