H4-D-MO Santoku

The H4-D is a universal Japanese Santoku knife with a blade length of 16.5 cm, which is more than impressive in all areas of cutting. It is not for nothing that the Japanese word "Santoku" means "three virtues" and describes the good qualities when cutting meat, fish and vegetables. So what is the classic "chef's knife" or all-purpose knife in western cuisine corresponds to the Santoku in Japanese cuisine. Here it is perhaps more a matter of passion for which knife shape you choose.

This Damascus model is a real challenge in terms of craftsmanship when it comes to forging and grinding. The Damascus blade is forged from 240 layers of Damascus steel, with the cutting performance being perfected by the slightly convex grind of the blade. The handle is made of very beautiful bog oak that is over 2,000 years old and has been treated several times with hard oil and sits securely in the hand.

The beautiful damask pattern is made visible by meticulous hand grinding and subsequent etching. This creates a slightly relief-like and topographical-looking surface, with ever new and unique patterns. Each damask knife is therefore a hand-made unique piece in its pattern and appearance with high standards of functionality, design and charisma.
