Description
Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, the Kai Shun Wasabi Black Santoku Knife (SKU: 6716S) is a versatile all-purpose knife ideal for home and professional kitchens. The polished high-carbon 1K6 / 6A stainless steel blade (hardness 58 1 HRC) offers exceptional edge retention and a razor-sharp cutting performance. The 6.5" (165mm) blade with its characteristic flat profile and slight belly excels at push-cutting, slicing vegetables, fish, and meats with minimal effort.
The black polypropylene handle (infused with bamboo powder) fully embraces the blade for maximum hygiene-no gaps for residue-and provides a comfortable, moisture-resistant ergonomic grip. This Santoku is the perfect "all-rounder" in the Wasabi Black series, bridging the gap between a chef's knife and a utility knife.
Key Specs:
- Blade Length: 6.5" / 16.5 cm
- Handle Length: ~12.6 cm
- Hardness: 58 1 HRC
- Steel: 1K6 / 6A stainless (corrosion-resistant)
- Origin: Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan
