Product Description
Damascus Elite Santoku Knife
13cm / 5in
Drawing inspiration from the traditional techniques of craftsmen in the Echizen region of Japan, our stunning Damascus Elite knives are fully optimised for exceptional quality and performance. Boasting unrivalled layered steel blades and octagonal shaped handles crafted from remarkably durable resin wood, Damascus Elite truly stands as the ultimate choice.

Our Damascus Elite santoku knife is the ultimate example of Japanese design and boasts a wide scalloped blade featuring air pockets that prevent food from sticking.

Crafted from world renowned Japanese Damascus stainless steel, with a VG10 high carbon core for a cutting edge with exceptional sharpness. The core is encased in 66 layers of rust-resistant steel, denoted by a striking and unique blade pattern that has been highly polished to beautifully showcase the layered steel. What’s more, it is stone ground to a traditional 12° angle for optimal sharpness and precision.

VG10
The 'G' in VG10 stands for 'gold,' referring to the gold standard this grade of stainless steel has achieved. Most knives fall into one of two categories: carbon or stainless steel. Carbon knives are known for their hardness but are also prone to rusting. Stainless steel knives are rust-resistant but often lack the same level of hardness found in carbon knives. However, the Japanese found a way to achieve the perfect balance between the two. VG10 blends the desirable attributes of carbon and stainless steel into one high performance material.

HRC 60
The HRC rating is the official Rockwell hardness rating of the metal. The higher the number, the harder the knife and the longer the blade will hold its edge. With Damascus Elite’s Rockwell hardness rating (HRC) of 60, it is the optimal hardness for VG10 steel.

Resin Wood Handles
Resin wood handles exude remarkable strength and unmatched quality, ensuring a lifetime of service in the kitchen. Carefully crafted with an octagonal shape and high gloss design, the handles provide natural resting points for the fingers for a supremely comfortable and secure grip. Each handle is adorned with a beautiful rivet that details the Japanese symbol for strength, further enhancing its unique charm.

Steel Composition
Using stainless steel containing 1% carbon, Damascus Elite knives offer outstanding edge retention. 15% chrome provides high corrosion resistance making the steel more resilient to tarnishing and general stains. Molybdenum, vanadium and cobalt work in partnership with the high carbon content to further strengthen the blade and improve stain resistance.
