This Santoku VG-1 Tsuchime Western Mahogany Handle 165mm is a luxurious kitchen blade crafted to perfection. Japanese steel is married with a mahogany handle to create an heirloom-quality knife with an exquisite balance of form and function that is sure to bring a touch of sophistication to any kitchen.

“Santoku" means an all-purpose knife, including meat, fish, and vegetables. It is designed to have both features of Japanese Nakiri (vegetable knife) and Japanese Gyuto (meat knife). Being highly convenient and practical, it is most widely used in households. Recommended for those new to Japanese kitchen knives and novice cooks.

VG-1 Stainless Steel
VG-1 (Takefu Special Steel Co., Ltd.) is quality Japanese High Carbon Stainless Steel that is popular for making cutlery. It has good corrosion resistance, edge retention and edge sharpness and is capable of achieving a relatively high Rockwell hardness.

The knife bears visible impressions of the hand-forging process (round hammer dents on the blade), which gives it a beautiful finish and also prevents food from sticking to the blade.

Wonderful Christmas gift

Wow! This was an excellent quality knife. I bought it as a Christmas gift for my father who loved it. It is beautiful and extremely sharp. The post card and the letter that came with it was a very nice touch. The shipping was fast with no issues. I would recommend.

Product Features

Handmade Forging

With the traditional forging process, the molecules of the iron material are finely tuned, leading to the completion of a "living kitchen knife" that breathes.

Durability

The process of heating and forging each material for mold making is repeated three or four times to quickly shape the blade and create durability before the carbon is released from the steel causing it to lose its original strength.

Sharpness

The blade is the most important factor in achieving the best possible sharpness. It is polished in our own blade factory to produce uncompromising sharpness.

Handle

The highest priority is placed on sturdiness, a sense of luxury, and a shape that is easy to grip and does not cause fatigue even after long hours of use.
