The 165mm santoku profile features a heel height of 48mm and spine thickness measuring 2.2mm at the heel, 2.0mm at mid, and 1.0mm at tip, providing a controllable geometry for slicing, dicing, and mincing tasks. Weighing 151g, this knife suits users who prefer a substantial feel during food preparation while maintaining the less aggressive tip characteristic of the santoku form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade uses VG10 stainless steel manufactured by Takefu Special Steel, hardened to 59-61 HRC with 15% chromium content for stain resistance. This san-mai stainless damascus clad construction features a migaki surface finish and supports easy sharpening due to the steel's machinability and refined microstructure from vanadium additions. Takeshi Saji, a fourth-generation blacksmith from Takefu Village in Echizen, constructs this knife with an exotic western-style ebony handle secured by a mosaic pin, reflecting his signature approach of fusing traditional Japanese bushcraft techniques with distinctive design elements developed over five decades of bladesmithing experience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Takeshi Saji","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46621831397597,"sku":"TAKE-V10RB-SA165-SAYA","price":491000.0,"currency_code":"KRW","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/TakeshiSajiVG10RainbowDamascusSantoku165mmEbonyHandleMosaicPina.jpg?v=1753928492","url":"https:\/\/www.knivesandstones.co.kr\/en\/products\/takeshi-saji-vg10-rainbow-damascus-santoku-165mm-ebony-handle-mosaic-pin","provider":"Knives and Stones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
