Description & specifications
This cheeky petty comes from Konosuke's 'Sanjo' series. These are some blades we brought back after a visit to Konosuke in Sakai, where we subsequently fitted the handles ourselves.
The knife is made with SLD in the core, a semi-stainless steel type that maintains the edge beautifully while also being highly resistant to rust. The hard core steel is surrounded by an extremely beautiful black damascus, topped with a kurouchi finish. Overall, it is a super beautiful piece of craftsmanship.
The profile of the knife resembles a spear tip, which is typical for knives from the Sanjo area. This gives the feeling of an incredibly fast and efficient knife. In addition to the 'fast' profile, it is also slightly thicker along the spine than the classic Sakai laser knives - for example, HD2. Due to the masterful sharpening, this - contrary to the norm - does not negatively affect the cutting experience; rather the opposite. A bit of weight behind such a sharp and thin edge makes it incredibly effective and one of the best cutting knives in the range.
Maintenance & use
Never cut into bones or frozen items as this may damage the egg. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly immediately.
Please note that both the blade and handle can be seriously damaged and broken if the knife is washed in a dishwasher – this also applies to stainless steel and wooden handles.
