17 cm santoku in multi-layer Damascus with an SG2 core from Tawa in Osaka
One of our good partners in Japan, Tower Knives in Osaka, makes this series of knives, in which the blade is beautifully forged in several layers of stainless steel around a hard core of the well-known SG2.
What makes these knives special, however, is not the look but the fact that they are slightly taller than comparable knives would typically be, while also being extremely thin. The Tawa knives are also ground all the way from the spine down towards the edge at a very fine angle, and that is why they cut so impressively well.
