Gentle-grip rounded spine and heel, plus friction-resistant blade for effortless prep of meats and fish to vegetables and fruits. Curved and hollow ground to improve every chop, slice, cube and mince, the Zwilling J.A. Henckels Miyabi Fusion Santoku is a blend of chef's knife and cleaver that keeps food from sticking to the blade. Designed in collaboration with world-renown chef Masaharu Morimoto, the 7-inch rocking santoku features a rounded spine and blade heel that prove gentle on the fingers and hands. The hollow edge santoku offers optimum sharpness, balance and comfort and a flower Damascus pattern and Katana edge add unique distinction to the Japanese thin blade. The CMV60 (VG-10) Japanese stainless "super steel" core blade features 64 outer layers (32 per side) of stainless steel for superior edge retention. Cryodur ice-hardened to a Rockwell 59-61, the Zwilling J.A. Henckels Miyabi Fusion santoku starts sharper and stays sharper longer. Honbazuke-style hand sharpening on each side to 9.5-12 degrees produces scalpel-sharp edges. Engineered of black resin-Duracon and striking red accents, the triple-riveted full tang handle is hygienic and precisely weight balanced for better control. In 1731 German knife maker Peter Henckels registered his "TWIN" trademark, which helped his company flourish into one of the world's most exclusive, best-performing kitchen cutlery producers. Following the company's nearly 300 years of tradition and innovative success, Zwilling J.A. Henckels Japan continues to ensure superior quality cutlery for professional and home gourmets worldwide.
