Cutlery description
Production area:Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture (Echizen Cutlery)
Category: Santoku
Blade length: 165mm
Steel: V-gold No. 10
Handle: Black plywood with ferrule
(The ferrule prevents dirt from accumulating at the boundary between the blade and handle, which is where dirt tends to accumulate, making it hygienic to use.)


This is a high-grade stainless steel blade steel developed by Takefu Special Steel, and is used not only for Echizen forged knives, but also for a wide range of other purposes.
It is a rust-resistant stainless steel with a high chromium content, and is classified according to the carbon and chromium content, such as V Gold No. 1, 2, 5, 7, 8, 10, V Gold Special, and Gold No. 2.
Of these, V Gold No. 10 is made using carefully selected, high-purity raw iron and the finest steel refining technology, making it tough, easy to process, and forge.
Furthermore, it is not corrosive due to harmful impurities, and its excellent wear resistance is a major feature of the "V Gold" series.
Another feature is that it contains cobalt, making it easier to sharpen the blade.
