Seki Kanetsugu Saiun Santoku + Petty Combo

Santoku 165 mm

Petty 120 mm

Seki Kanetsugu was founded in 1918 by Matsujiro Kawamura, descendant of the famous swordsmith Kanetsugu, who worked during Nanboku-cho period. The Saiun line features a VG-10 core steel heat treated quite high at 62-64, a stainless damascus cladding, and a western style black micarta handle with a stainless bolster. These knives tend to balance more towards to handle similar to a traditional European knife so if you're looking for that balance point, and a similar western profile with a steel upgrade and thinner blade look no further.

Knife Care (Stainless Steel)

• Although this knife is made from stainless steel we do still encourage our customers to keep their knives as dry and clean as possible.
• NO DISHWASHER - the high heat will ruin the wooden handle.
• Wash and dry by hand using regular dish soap and warm water using a none abrasive sponge or cloth.
• Ensure the knife is dry before being put away for storage and ensure the edge of the knife is protected to avoid any unnecessary dulling.
• Avoid Bones, Frozen foods, nuts and hard candies or anything other than fruits, vegetables and proteins.
