The blade is san-mai, sharpened 50/50, in VG-10, superior stainless steel. Misuzu has innovated with this trapezoidal santoku. The tip of the blade is pointed and the heel comes back towards the handle, which blocks the finger and provides a very good grip. This is an all-purpose knife, for trimming vegetables, or cutting meat or fish. Its 15-cm length makes it very versatile.
This model’s palisander handle is western-style, and the half-tang is fixed with two stainless steel rivets.
It is a very beautiful introduction to Japanese blades.
