Santoku 7″ Knife in 67-Layer Damascus Steel with Desert Ironwood Handle

The 7-inch Santoku blade is crafted from 67 layers of Damascus steel, combining a high-carbon steel core with high-strength stainless steel outer layers. The central 10Cr15CoMoV core provides high hardness (~60 ± 2 HRC), ensuring exceptional edge retention and continuous cutting performance even under intensive use. The outer layers protect against corrosion, lateral impacts, and wear, extending the blade’s lifespan.

The wavy Damascus pattern is not only aesthetic — it represents the functional layering that acts as a barrier against deformation. This structure provides an ideal balance of cutting rigidity and handling flexibility.

The handle is made from Desert Ironwood, an extremely dense and stable wood with low moisture absorption and natural resistance to fungi and cracking. The octagonal shape ensures a firm, secure grip, reducing fatigue during prolonged use.
