Hand forged iron clad aogami 2 santoku with horn ferruled ebony handle. These have more of a gyuto shape tip being centered closer to the inside of the handle and the edge coming up to meet the spine at the tip, but with the greater heel height of a santoku.
The finish grinding is excellent with a convex face and a smooth finished spine and choil. This knife has a symmetrical convex grind allowing for excellent food release and making it friendly to right or left handed users. A solid middle weight knife with good height in the heel giving it a solid in charge feel but also capable of nimble work.
These have a thin grind behind the edge for smooth cutting but are best suited for those familiar with the demands of a Japanese knife. No twisting or scraping the edge and especially no cutting bones or other hard items.
This knife has a hard carbon steel core with mild steel and iron suminagashi damascus cladding for added durability. The entire blade will develop a patina with use, especially with acidic foods. Special attention is needed to keep from rusting. Do not leave wet. Hand wash & dry, no dishwasher. Hardwood-end grain or softwood long grain cutting boards are preferred; avoid bamboo and plastic cutting boards. Rust can be removed with a light abrasive.
