Kasumi Damascus Santoku Knife 18cm

To maintain their sharpness, durability, and beautiful Damascus pattern, they should always be hand-washed with mild detergent and warm water, then dried immediately with a soft cloth.

The high-carbon content in the VG-10 core can be susceptible to corrosion if left wet, and the heat and harsh detergents in dishwashers can damage both the blade and the resin-impregnated wooden handle.

Proper care ensures the longevity and performance of your Kasumi knife.
