Available in two size options - 8" and 5.5" blade length - the Xinzuo B46W Series Santoku is an exceptionally designed knife that meets the needs of discerning chefs in both larger and more compact versions. This knife combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship with the finest materials available, making it an excellent choice for a variety of kitchen tasks.
The blades are made of 67 layers of luxurious Damascus steel, which enclose a core of Japanese AUS-10 stainless steel. This special steel is known for its exceptional hardness and corrosion resistance, which ensures lasting sharpness and durability. With a Rockwell hardness of around 60 HRC, both variants of the Santoku offer precise cuts and are robust enough for everyday kitchen work. The characteristic Damascus pattern not only gives each knife an impressive look, but also improves the non-stick properties during cutting.
The American walnut handle is not only visually appealing with its rich color and grain, but also offers an ergonomic shape that allows for safe and comfortable handling. These handles are specifically designed to provide excellent balance and control for all types of cutting tasks.
The 8-inch variant is ideal for chefs who prefer a sturdy, versatile knife for extensive cutting work, while the 5.5-inch version is perfect for finer, more precise tasks where a lighter, more maneuverable tool is advantageous.
Overall, the Xinzuo B46W series Santoku offers excellent performance in both sizes, which impresses both visually and functionally. Whether you want to prepare large quantities of ingredients or make detailed, fine cuts, these knives are a valuable addition to any kitchen and promise long-lasting satisfaction and performance.
