Hatsukokoro Hayabusa Blue 2 Rainbow Rainbow Damascus Santoku 180mm

Hatsukokoro Hayabusa Blue 2 Rainbow Rainbow Damascus Santoku 180mm, all-purpose Japanese knife

This santoku is an all-purpose knife for straight push cuts on vegetables, herbs and boneless proteins. The blade is a practical everyday length. Forged by Hatsukokoro Hayabusa with a damascus finish, it pairs hard, keen Japanese steel with the thin grind and balance that let the blade glide through food with less resistance. The forged carbon steel takes a keen edge and gains character with use.

Hatsukokoro Hayabusa santoku specifications

Care and everyday use

It is at its best for vegetables, herbs and boneless proteins. This is a carbon-steel blade, which takes an exceptionally keen edge but reacts with food and water. Hand wash and dry it immediately after use, wipe on a light coat of oil before storage, and expect a natural patina to form over time. Keep it off bone and frozen food, and sharpen on a whetstone to bring the edge back.
