Yoshisada kitchen knife “Santoku Hozugawa" 180mm

A convenient kitchen knife that prevents the cut cucumber from sticking to the blade

Knives from the "Hozugawa" series, which are beautiful to look at and have uneven ripples to prevent the cut ingredients from sticking to the blade.

This versatile knife is called a santoku because it can cut a wide range of ingredients such as meat, fish, and vegetables in a variety of ways.

The forged knives made by Yoshisada are made by heating the metal and applying pressure by hitting it with a hammer to crush the internal voids and refine the crystals to increase strength.
It is hard to rust and has excellent sharpness, so if you use it, you can cook deliciously without spoiling the taste of the ingredients.

With a blade length of 18 cm, it is a common size used at home.
Double-edged so it can be used by left-handed people.

Sharpening a knife keeps it sharp, so if it loses its sharpness, sharpen it before use.
There are natural whetstones and artificial whetstones for whetstones, so please consult a specialty store to purchase them.
We recommend going to a specialty store for polishing and repair once every 1-2 years.

| How to sharpen |
In the case of a double-edged blade, sharpen the front and back the same number of times.
In the case of a single-edged blade, please sharpen the surface of the blade from the tip to the base. If the back of the blade feels rough to the touch (burr edge), lightly sharpen the back side 2-3 times until the burr edge disappears.

A wooden cutting board is recommended.
