Condition: Deep restoration — expect a bit of wabi-sabi charm
---
A compact santoku-style blade with a wicked workhorse vibe and standout attitude. This little beast hits the sweet spot between a petty and a full-size santoku, giving you plenty of versatility in a tighter footprint. The geometry is lean and practical—great for everyday prep, especially in tighter spaces or smaller hands.
Crafted in Sakai by Aoki Hamono Seisakusho, the makers behind Sakai Takayuki, this blade features classic san-mai construction with a carbon steel core clad in soft stainless. The rugged, expressive cladding line adds a raw beauty to the piece, and the deep restoration gives it real soul—wabi-sabi in all the right places.
A perfect fit for cooks who want functional steel with personality. Ships with history, it's original box and sharp as hell.
