Description
Also known as the Asian chef's knife, the Santoku is a well-rounded knife that can accomplish a lot of cutting task and it excels at slicing, dicing, and mincing. Think of it as a cross between a Gyuto (chef's knife) and Nakiri (vegetable cleaver knife).
With a traditional appearance from afar, the Hayabusa line features an elegant blade with a VG-5 cutting core sandwiched in the layered San Mai construction style that creates the delicate wave design near the edge of the blade. The western style pakkawood handle features rivets and a welded bolster, providing heft and balance. As an entry-level knife, the Hatsukokoro VG-5 Hayabusa offers an accessible, reliable, and durable introduction to the world of Japanese knives.
Due to the nature of handcrafting and traditional blacksmithing, each knife is unique and may have some cosmetic distortion or irregularities. This is expected and normal. Because these knives are handcrafted, they qualify for a 3 month limited warranty for manufacturing defects only.
