Description
MIYABI HIBANA 800DP 7-inch Rocking Santoku brings a touch of Japan to every cut, combining a breathtaking 49-layer Spark Damascus pattern with the exceptional performance of an FC61 steel core, handcrafted in Seki, Japan. The core of FC61 steel is wrapped in 48 alternating layers of stainless steel in a striking spark Damascus pattern that both strengthens and protects the blade, while FRIODURx2 hardening improves the microstructure of the steel for superior cutting performance, corrosion resistance, and durability. Hand-sharpened using the traditional three-step Honbazuke process, the fine edge delivers long-lasting sharpness for chopping vegetables, slicing meats, and preparing fish. The ergonomic triple-riveted handle with curved bolster supports the pinch grip for comfort and ease of use, while sleek black and brass spacers add beauty, weight, and sturdiness in hand. The rocking santoku blade supports both Western circular motion and Asian chopping techniques.
