Material & construction

The blade is forged from high‑quality VG‑10 stainless steel, known for its balance of edge retention and corrosion resistance. With a Rockwell hardness rating around 60‑61 HRC, the knife holds a sharp edge well while remaining easy to maintain. The blade’s finish enhances both aesthetics and performance. The classic rosewood handle provides secure grip and ergonomic comfort during extended prep sessions.

Use & care

Stainless VG‑10 steel offers good corrosion resistance, but to keep the blade performing its best, hand wash gently and dry immediately after use. Avoid dishwasher cleaning to preserve the wood handle and edge. Regular honing will help maintain peak sharpness between professional sharpenings.

Who it’s for

Ideal for home cooks and culinary enthusiasts who want a high‑quality Japanese chef’s knife that blends traditional craftsmanship with everyday utility. Perfect for slicing, dicing, and chopping a wide range of ingredients.
