Description
xIntroducing the HOSHANHO Damascus Santoku Knife, a professional-grade tool built for precision and comfort in demanding kitchens. The blade pairs a Japanese core steel, 10Cr15CoMoV, with 67 outer layers of Damascus steel. This combination is crafted through vacuum heat treatment and liquid nitrogen cryogenic processing, resulting in a blade that feels responsive and resilient. The reported hardness range of 62-64 HRC supports smooth, controlled slicing across meat, poultry, fish, and vegetables while maintaining edge integrity over time.
Performance that adapts to your tasks
The classic Santoku profile excels at chopping, dicing, and slicing in one versatile tool. A double-sided hollow ground edge reduces friction and helps prevent food from sticking, allowing you to move through prep with fewer snags. The blade is hand polished to a precise 12-15 degree bevel, delivering a balance between razor-sharp performance and durable edge life. A unique feather pattern emerges from the forging process, and the surface is sandblasted to enhance edge retention and tactile feedback in the hand.
