Fujiwara Kanefusa FKH Series knife provides an SK-4 high carbon steel blade (HRc. 59-59) at an affordable price. Its black pakkawood handles and stainless steel bolsters provide good blade balance and a comfortable, secure grip.
Even though carbon steel knives require more care and maintenance than stainless steel (Because it is prone to discoloring or rusting), there are still many people who prefer high carbon steel knives because they offer better edge sharpness, edge retention and ease of re-sharpening than the majority of stainless steel knives.
The tall blade and rounded nose / tip of the Santoku make it a versatile knife that is well suited to cutting meat, fish, or vegetables; Hence it’s name, which literally means “Three-purpose”. The Santoku is often recommended as a multi-purpose kitchen knife.

Fujiwara Kanefusa craftsman is ready to make suitable edge geometry for left handed version by hand sharpening process at 10% extra of the regular price. Please allow 2 to 3 business days for left handed version to deliver.
For your information, most of the Japanese Kitchen knives come originally with double bevel edge sharpened 70/30 (face side/back side) for Western style knives. This geometry came from Japanese Traditional knives with single bevel edge and Shinogi blade construction. This is one of the special features and reasons why Japanese knives have an excellent cutting performance.
However, this 70/30 edge geometry is designed for right hand use, so we have a service to modify it to 30/70 for left handed users with re-sharpening process by skilled craftsman.
We believe the quality and cutting performance of Japanese knives are the best in the world, and hope you enjoy fine craftsmanship and sharp edge with your new knife. With proper cares, every Japanese knife should be your special cooking partner for long times.

I was in search of a single multi-purpose knife for use on our cruising yacht. This Santoku perfectly fit for this purpose as it is a bit shorter and is useful for all meats and vegetables. I am very pleased with not only the knife but also the entire buying experience from you. Thank you for your attention to detail and great customer service.
My first Carbon steel knife and I love it. The knife itself looks and feels great. Cuts very nicely. It's very sharp and is already forming a nice patina.
I bought this knife as a gift, but my initial thoughts were amazing. Very sharp and had great balance.
What can I say it's a nice carbon steel to start on and for under $100 you can't beat it I was scared of buying a $200 one because of rusting chipping and learning how to sharpen but this knife is perfect for a beginner it does rust so take care of it, hasn't chipped on me, and it's easy to sharpen forsure my next knife will cost $200
Awesome knife and great craftsmanship. Very sharp and perfect for what my kitchen needed. Do clean promptly to avoid staining the blade. My order shipped promptly and very pleased with the customer service.
