- 67 layers of Damascus steel for a harder blade that stays sharper longer with an ergonomic Pakkawood handle for precision and control. Made utilizing the 3-step Honbazuke method – an advanced heat treatment to achieve a combination of hardness and flexibility that creates an exceptional 12-degree cutting edge.
- Our Damascus steel santoku knife–a blade with Japanese origins–is a true triple-threat as it's a multi-purpose knife with the aptitude for cutting meat, fish and vegetables making easy work of chopping, dicing, and mincing.
- Our knives are expertly crafted tools that maintain their sharpness for extended periods with proper care. Do not clean in the dishwasher. Hand wash only. Frequent honing is recommended.
- The 7-inch Santoku knife features a total length of 12.2 inches, with a 6.7-inch Japanese Damascus stainless steel blade. Its 4.5-inch Pakkawood handle offers a comfortable, ergonomic grip.
- HexClad cutlery carries a lifetime warranty against manufacturer's defects. It does not cover damage from improper use or storage, accident, loss, or theft. Cutting on hard surfaces, dishwasher use, dulled blades, rust, discoloration, and bent/broken blades, and foodservice use will also void this warranty.
