Hikari 光 7" Damascus Steel Professional Santoku Knife 三徳包丁
This breathtaking 7" Hikari Damascus Santoku Knife is individually forged from 67-layer Japanese Damascus Steel with an HRC Rating as high as 62 for unparalleled hardiness and performance.
33-layers of Damascus on each side surround the Japanese VG10 Steel Core. Built to last and retain sharpness so that you will never need another santoku knife again.
The Hikari Santoku Knife features integrated full-tang moulding from blade to handle, which allows for increased force and leverage, making it useful against even the toughest of meats and vegetables.
The handle is perhaps our most practical and stunning handle design yet; it's a Pakka wood handle that is full of deep wooden colours, and will glisten beautifully in your kitchen.
The handle is also completely waterproof, heat-resistant, and non-slip, so it will feel absolutely wonderful in your hand. Finally, there is a Blossom Plum Rivet on the handle to enhance both the look and feel.
