White #2 Steel Santoku Knife, Ebony Wood Handle

Unmatched Carbon Sharpness & Classic Versatility: 180mm Shirogami #2 Santoku.

Forged by certified Master Craftsman Shogo Yamatsuka, this 180mm Santoku represents the pure essence of traditional Japanese cutlery. Crafted from high-purity Shirogami #2 (White Paper Steel #2) carbon steel, it delivers unmatched sharpness, effortless resharpening, and a buttery-smooth cutting feel on the board.

Master Yamatsuka applies extra cycles of heating and precise hand-hammering during the forging process to refine the metal’s grain structure at a microscopic level. This results in superior edge durability and exceptional precision.

Featuring a generous 48mm blade width and an extended 180mm (7.1 inch) length, this "Three Virtues" knife easily splits large vegetables, trims meats, and prepares fish with ultimate control. The pure carbon steel edge slices cleanly without crushing plant cell walls or protein fibers, preserving the natural flavor of every ingredient. Fitted with a luxury Octagonal Ebony Handle, it offers a solid 160g weight with flawless counter-balance.
