Two knives for cutting all types of food
This Satake set contains the following 2 knives:
- 1 deba knife 12cm (asymmetrical cutting edge for right-handers)
- 1 santoku knife 17cm
These Japanese knives have a stainless steel blade, an alloy strengthened by the addition of molybdenum and vanadium, which improves its resistance to corrosion and shock. Thanks to these elements, the steel has a hardness of 57 HRC on the Rockwell scale, ensuring long-lasting sharpness and easy sharpening.
When necessary, you can sharpen your knives regularly with a shotgun or sharpen them with a stone to preserve their optimum cutting edge. Such hardness offers a good compromise between ease of maintenance and cutting performance.
The knives have been laser-pre-sharpened to be ready for use as soon as you receive them. The top of the blade has a hammered finish called Tsuchime, which prevents greasy or wet food from sticking. In addition to being polished, the blades are engraved with kanji, offering an authentic yet elegant look.
Oval handles for a comfortable grip
Both knives feature oval handles, a shape that perfectly fits your palm. Ergonomic and comfortable, these handles are ideal for prolonged cutting, as their shape reduces the sensation of fatigue.
Knife handles are made from magnolia wood, a precious wood with a light, almost creamy hue. Traditionally used for Japanese sword scabbards, this species is prized for its lightness, soft feel and resistance to humidity.
Bolsters complete the handles to join the blades. Designed in black synthetic material, they give your knives the right balance.
To wash your Satake knives, clean them exclusively by hand with a soft sponge. Then dry them immediately and store them in a dry place, just like their cardboard box. Do not soak them in the sink or put them in the dishwasher.
