The FC61 fine carbide steel core at 60-62 HRC is surrounded by 48 outer layers of steel forming a unique Damascus-design pattern on the blade, FRIODUR ice-hardened for extreme hardness and superior corrosion resistance. The cutting edge is Honbazuke-honed and symmetrical for use by both right and left-handed cooks, with no finger guard so the full length of the cutting edge can be used. Santoku translates as \"Three Virtues\" for meat, fish, and vegetables, with a flat cutting edge that lends itself to a chopping motion for precise, effortless prep. The comfortable D-shaped black Pakka wood handle joins seamlessly with the half-bolster, accented by a steel mosaic pin and handle end cap, with a smooth surface that helps prevent calluses on the thumb and forefinger. Hand wash only; maintain and sharpen using a whetstone. Use a wooden chopping board to preserve the cutting edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandcrafted in Seki, Japan:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditional Japanese craftsmanship combined with modern engineering and design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFC61 Fine Carbide Steel Core:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very good cutting edge retention and sharpness at 60-62 HRC (approximately 61 Rockwell)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e49-Layer Damascus Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 outer layers of steel surrounding the core create a unique, beautiful Damascus pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFRIODUR Ice-Hardened Blade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Extreme hardness and superior corrosion resistance for long-lasting performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHonbazuke-Honed Symmetrical Edge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suitable for both right and left-handed users; no finger guard for full cutting edge access\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eD-Shaped Black Pakka Wood Handle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Comfortable, seamless join with the half-bolster; smooth surface prevents calluses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel Mosaic Pin and Handle End Cap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Elegant accents that add beauty and balance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSantoku Versatility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flat cutting edge ideal for chopping meat, fish, and vegetables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand Wash Only:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maintain and sharpen using a whetstone; use a wooden chopping board to preserve the edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e FC61 Fine Carbide Steel (49-Layer Damascus)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Pakka Wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Concealed Tang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fine Edge (Symmetrical)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Finishing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Honbazuke Edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturing Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Welded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Hardness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60-62 HRC (approx. 61 Rockwell)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 cm \/ 7.09 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.1 cm \/ 0.04 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.2 cm \/ 5.59 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 cm \/ 0.98 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTotal Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32.2 cm \/ 12.68 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNet Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.207 kg \/ 0.46 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japan (Seki)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem No.:\u003c\/strong\u003e 34684-181\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- THA:B2B_REFERENCES:START --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tha-b2b-reference-block\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReference Codes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 34684-181-0\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- THA:B2B_REFERENCES:END --\u003e","brand":"Miyabi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45652109852870,"sku":"34684-181-0","price":299.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/4557\/3062\/files\/34684-181-0_1_b2cf8986-db8f-4fca-b2bc-0b3a0433729f.jpg?v=1774434975","url":"https:\/\/thehomeappliances.ca\/products\/miyabi-kaizen-ii-5000fcd-7-inch-santoku-black","provider":"TheHomeAppliances.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
