Damascus VG10 Nakiri Knife - 165mm

The Miki Hamono Santoku knife is suitable for cutting vegetables, fruit, breads, cured meats and is so versatile and useful that it is sure to be picked up several times a day.

Made with VG10 stainless steel clad with 17 layers of  Damascus . It has a very fine blade and holds its edge beautifully. To ensure the longest possible life for your knife we recommend hand washing and drying after use, though the timeframe is not crucial, as unlike high carbon steel Japanese kitchen knives, this one is rust resistant. 

The Black wood handle is western style and universal when held, with no preference for right or left handers. With a stainless steel ferrule and stainless rivets, this beautiful knife is made to last.

Founded in 1935, Miki Hamono is a small but long-standing forge located in Miki, Hyogo Prefecture, one of the five most important forging regions in Japan. Their knives are made using authentic forging methods and with the highest quality standards in mind, but despite this they are quite affordable knives.
