NEW SW17 White Carbon #1 Damascus Santoku

White carbon #1 takes an exceptionally fine edge and this knife may well be the sharpest knife you will ever own. 

The layered steel gives it strength, as well as beauty and the traditional octagonal Ho-wood and Water buffalo horn handle matches the blade quality. 

As with all Carbon steel, keep this knife away from water except for washing to avoid rusting. 

CAUTION: All Carbon steel blades will patina through regular use and will easily rust if left wet. This is not a defect, it is a product of the material that comes with carbon steel's ability to take a finer edge, which is why it is preferred by many chefs. This is NOT a stainless steel.
