Hazaki Classic Black Santoku 180mm
About Hazaki Knives - Hazaki, founded by Samuel Bouchard in Montreal, Canada, combines the best of both worlds: Japanese knifemaking and Canadian woodwork. Blades are expertly forged in Seki, Japan, from high-end Japanese steel and finished with beautiful handles in Montreal by Samuel and his team. Their knife blocks and magnets are expertly handcrafted in Canada from sustainably sourced woods.
I love cutting with my Hazaki Classic. They’ve got a beautifully thin blade that, thanks to the incredible AUS10 steel they used, gets wicked sharp and keeps an edge beautifully. AUS10 is amazing stuff; stainless steel that cuts and keeps an edge much like traditional high carbon steel, but doesn’t rust. The blackwood handles complement the blades perfectly for a very slick package.
Hazaki prefers the natural look and feel of the Canadian wood used in their handles, so they are not sealed. I recommend a light coat of cutting board wax every few months to keep them looking and feeling great!
About the Shape - This is also a multi purpose knife, but with a slight vegetable bias. Santoku means 'Three Virtues' or 'To solve Three Problems'. The virtues or problems are slicing, dicing and mincing. Santoku is usually found in 160mm - 190mm lengths. These are more and more popular in Western kitchens due to the unique shape and smaller easy to handle size.
