Takamura SG2 Migaki 170mm Santoku with Red Western Handle

Introducing the Takamura Migaki SG2 (AKA R2) 170mm Santoku - a knife that's highly praised for its exceptional edge retention and wear resistance. This double-edged blade, crafted from R2/SG2 stainless steel with a 62-63 HRC, is built for durability and precision. Its 170mm (6.7") length and 1.7mm thickness make it versatile for various cutting tasks. The 45mm (1.8") blade height and the comfortable red Pakka wood handle, measuring 120mm (4.7") in length, ensure efficient slicing and a firm grip.

The santoku, meaning "three virtues", excels in slicing, dicing, and chopping. The Takamura Migaki 170mm santoku combines aesthetic appeal, high-performance grinding, and a lightweight design, making it an essential tool for any kitchen.

To ensure its longevity, hand washing and towel drying are recommended. Use a sharpening stone to maintain the blade's edge. Avoid cutting frozen items or bones to prevent chipping or damage.
