Specifications
The Hatsukokoro x Yauji damascus aogami#2 single bevel santoku 165mm is a handcrafted Japanese knife forged by blacksmith Yoshihiro Yauji. The core steel is aogami#2, known for its excellent sharpness and edge retention. The blade features a stunning damascus finish, adding visual appeal to the knife. Unlike more common double bevel santokus, this single bevel design requires a bit more skill and practice to master. At 165mm in length, it is a versatile size for a variety of cutting tasks in the kitchen. This santoku is a unique addition to any knife collection, offering the precision and performance of a single bevel blade.
