Cuisine::pro's Damashiro knives feature stunning Damascus-style patterned blades suggestive of flowing water and handles inspired by Japanese samurai swords. Made of ice-hardened Japanese steel, the blades are tough, shatter-resistant and honed by traditional methods to a fine, razor-sharp, edge. Bring versatility and high performance to your kitchen tasks with this combination of cleaver and santoku knives. The santoku knife has a broad blade and low tip for precise control and recessed scallops along the blade to reduce friction and release cut foods. The cleaver effortlessly portions poultry and larger cuts of meat. Its weighted design makes it easy to chop through bone and joints.
