Kanetsune Seki Santoku Knife 180mm 33 layer Damascus steel limited From JP #k81

Kanetsune Seki's Damascus knife series, recognized by top chefs around the world. Made of high-quality stainless steel cutlery steel VG-10, which Japan is proud of around the world. It is a well-established theory that so-called "steel" carbon steel cuts well but is prone to rust, while stainless steel is resistant to rust but has poor sharpness, but VG-10 combines the best of both, "cuts well and is resistant to rust." It is an ideal steel material.
Damascus steel, with its mesmerizing and fantastical patterns reminiscent of the ripples on a beautiful Japanese sword, has received high praise overseas and has attracted many users. The Damascus steel used in this knife has 33 layers, and the pattern created when the core material, VG-10, is sandwiched between 16 layers on both sides for forging. By sandwiching the highly hard core material VG-10 between relatively soft stainless steel materials, the blade has both sharp cutting ability and strength (toughness) against blade spills.
A professional knife that can withstand hard use. The metal part that connects the blade and handle is called the “cap''. In order to meet professional hygiene standards and hard use, the blade and ferrule are welded together to provide corrosion and water resistance. The core shape of the handle is straight through (a shape where the steel passes through to the end of the handle = full tang). The handle material POM is made of a durable material (resin) that can withstand temperatures of 150 degrees Celsius, and is securely caulked in three places, making it very sturdy. The weight is well balanced, so you won't get tired even when using it for a long time, and it is a knife with a durable and hygienic structure that can withstand hard use.
In recent years, Santoku style knives have received high praise overseas as well. This style with a pointed tip and wide width is a very versatile and convenient style that can be used for cutting meat, filleting fish, and cutting vegetables.
This knife, which looks beautiful and cuts well, enriches the soul of those who cook, and will be used for many years to come, so we think it would be a great gift. In ancient times, there was a custom of giving “amulet swords,'' but these days more and more people are giving knives as auspicious gifts, with the idea that they “open up the future.''
