Five-inch Katsura Santoku Damascus culinary blade with hidden tang. Made with Japanese AUS-10 core and reinforced with 66 layers of Damascus steel, 60+ Rockwell hardness. Includes handle end cap and presentation box. 

5-inch blade, 8.75-inch total length (excluding end cap), NW 2.50 OZ, HRC 60+ hardness. 

The blade is crafted by folding 66 layers of Japanese Damascus steel over a Japanese AUS-10 steel cutting core with a 60+ Rockwell hardness. Santoku translates as the “3 virtues”, referring to the 3 types of cuts suited to this blade – slicing, dicing, and mincing. The 5-inch blade has a razor-sharp edge that makes it perfect for fine cuts. This is a knife-making project; you will not receive a finished knife.
