Discover the AA-2 Santoku Knife – a premium Japanese kitchen knife crafted with exceptional precision and artistry.

Its ultra-hard steel is created by adding cobalt and vanadium to high-quality molybdenum steel, resulting in an exceptionally durable alloy. The blade is forged from 63 layers of nickel Damascus steel, producing a luxurious, elegant pattern that reflects true Japanese craftsmanship.

Featuring a VG10 stainless steel core, this Santoku offers outstanding sharpness, long-lasting edge retention, and superior durability. The outer layers display a beautiful multi-layer Damascus design paired with a traditional Tsuchime (hammered) finish, which helps reduce friction and prevent food from sticking to the blade – blending aesthetics with practical performance.

The word Santoku means “three virtues,” representing its versatility: ideal for slicing, dicing, and mincing vegetables, meat, and fish with effortless precision.

A premium mahogany handle ensures comfort, balance, and control, making every cooking session more enjoyable.

Proudly stamped with the mark of Minamoto no Hisahide, this handcrafted blade embodies the highest standards of Japanese blade-making.

Bring home a timeless piece of Japanese cutlery – engineered for performance, built to last a lifetime.

Care Instructions:

After each use, wash the knife gently, wipe it with a cloth, and ensure it is completely dry.
For long-term storage, coat the blade lightly with a plant-based oil and wrap it in a tea towel.
Maintain blade sharpness by sharpening approximately every 10 days or as needed for optimal performance.

Cautions and Tips for Longevity:

Use only for food preparation, avoiding non-food tasks.
Whenever possible, use a wooden cutting board to reduce wear on the blade.
Avoid cutting hard items like frozen foods, bones, crab shells, or dense vegetables (e.g., pumpkin) with this knife; use a specialized knife instead to prevent chipping or cracking.
Avoid direct contact with the blade; handle carefully to prevent injury.
Do not expose the knife to direct flame or strike it with hard objects.
Store securely and keep out of reach of children.
