KICHIJI GINSAN NAWAME DAMASCUS SANTOKU 170MM OCTAGONAL EBONY HANDLE
This collection has a traditional Japanese weight and balance forged from a tough and durable stainless steel giving it fantastic cutting performance, ease of sharpening and low maintenance.
Ginsanko is Hitachi’s primary stainless steel and a popular choice with Japanese bladesmiths, as it’s not heavily alloyed it is considerably easier to sharpen than most fully stainless steels commonly used.
The blade has a stepped grind and nawame finish helping it to move effortlessly through food whilst reducing food sticking.
