Review: Beautiful, practical, and sharp - Beautiful knife. As with all of the Yoshihiro knives I have, it is very well made and quite sharp from the factory. A little polishing on a 8000 grit diamond steel plate made it razor sharp. One of the prettiest damask knives I have seen. I passed it on to my daughter who works in a professional kitchen since I have replaced it with Yoshihiro carbon steel knives. The stainless steel knives are much better than anything common knife or even the German SS knives. However I like the extreme hardness of the high carbon steels even though it is just for fun, since this knife will hold a great edge. I highly recommend all of the Yoshihiro products. desertcart sells almost the complete line. I have also bought from them directly with no problems.
Review: One of the best knives I have owned - One of the best knives I have owned. It is one of my go to knives (other one being a Bob Kramer High Carbon Steel Chef's Knife). I won't compare them, because they are very different, but while handling this one, I never felt that I need something better or different. As soon as you take it out from the saya, it's beautiful to the eyes. It's razor sharp, and holds that edge for a really long time. I cannot tell you how good the handle feels in the hands. For the price, it's a great buy.

## Features

- Forged and hammered with 46 layers of steel in the Damascus tradition with a VG10 Core, the VG10 Hammered Damascus Series has been a perennial seller, combining performance, beauty, and extraordinary value.
- The most versatile and one of the most popular knives that a cook can have today is a Japanese all-purpose chefs knife known as a Santoku knife. Santoku is Japanese for three virtues referring to the shape of the blade which comprises aspects of the traditional vegetable knife , Usuba, and Gyuto in one knife making it a favorite among chefs and cooks everywhere.
- Preparing delicious meals starts with taking wholesome ingredients and using the tools such as a high quality chef’s knife to make every meal into something special. From dicing, slicing, and chopping fresh produce from a farmer’s market to carving a roast chicken straight from the oven, even the simplest tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional.
- Proudly made in Japan. This knife is complimented with a traditional Japanese Wa-style handcrafted Octagonal Handle that is lightweight and ergonomically welds to the hand for seamless use. A protective wooden sheath called a Saya is included, which protects the knife and adds to its appearance when not in use. The hammered texture of the blade eliminates friction and keeps food from sticking to the blade.
- Traditional Japanese knife making values a sharp edge, which requires attention and care. Sharpening and honing should be done with only water whetstones. Hand wash and dry only, and do so immediately if working with acidic ingredients. Do not use on objects such as bones, nutshells, and frozen foods.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best knives I have owned
*by A***N on August 29, 2016*

One of the best knives I have owned. It is one of my go to knives (other one being a Bob Kramer High Carbon Steel Chef's Knife). I won't compare them, because they are very different, but while handling this one, I never felt that I need something better or different. As soon as you take it out from the saya, it's beautiful to the eyes. It's razor sharp, and holds that edge for a really long time. I cannot tell you how good the handle feels in the hands. For the price, it's a great buy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty good but feels cheap
*by M***T on April 10, 2025*

Been a chef for about 9 years self tought cutting skills this knife is definitely pretty sharp I will say the handle feels really cheap and feels like it's not a full tang it makes the whole knife feel cheap but I only started using this knife so after a bit more time I'll update Update: 3 months in and still pretty good I have sharpened it a couple of times but mostly using a steel rod to hone my edge unfortunately my knife went threw a little abuse from people at work and suffered small chips around the edge .. but nothing I can't sharpen out! Update: 11 months in and still a great knife
