Santoku VG-10 Damascus Brown Birch Handle 165mm (6.5”)

Too good to use!

Very expensive!- not the knife: the customs charges. The knife (as with all the knives I’ve had from Musashi) is perfect, literally The best it’s possible to get. No exaggeration. The trouble is - once received, I am reluctant to use it because it’s more like an art work, to be displayed and admired as much as for the supreme aesthetics as for the unsurpassed practical utility. However, the customs charges for the UK are ridiculous - 20% of the knife and shipping together!! And yet… and yet: is the knife worth the price? I would pay double the price. Honestly.

Just excellent

The knife arrived very quickly using it is a complete pleasure, just a quick hone on a leather strop and it was very good indeed. Highly recommend.

Tomatoes!!

In the store, they give you a radish to cut. It sliced through it like butter and I thought this is a nice knife! When I got home, one of the first things I made was a Greek salad. The cherry tomatoes they didn't even squish when I sliced through them! I have never experienced anything like it. Such a beautiful and powerful knife.
