Santoku 180mm - Ginsan Nickel Damascus Steel (Ebony & Black Buffalo Horn Handle)

Artistic Damascene Beauty & Expanded Versatility: 180mm Damascus Santoku.

Forged by certified Master Craftsman Shogo Yamatsuka, this 180mm Santoku offers an expanded, versatile profile elevated by the breathtaking aesthetics of Ginsan Nickel Damascus steel. Combining the razor-sharp edge retention of high-carbon steel with the low-maintenance rust resistance of Ginsan (Silver 3) stainless steel, each blade features a unique, flowing wave pattern created through precise hand-hammering.

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 an exceptionally smooth slicing feel on the board.

The extended 180mm (7.1 inch) blade length provides extra capacity over standard Santokus, making it effortless to split large vegetables, slice proteins, and handle high-volume prep work with ease. Fitted with a luxury Octagonal Ebony Handle paired with a Black Water Buffalo Horn ferrule, it offers supreme density, water resistance, and flawless hand balance.
