You will love preparing meals with the Classic Blonde 5.5-inch Santoku. This beautiful, Asian-inspired chef's knife is a multipurpose wonder, adept at all the basic kitchen cutting tasks. This santoku features a compact 5.5-inch blade, making it exceptionally lightweight and highly maneuverable. Yet it has enough belly curve to make it effective at rocking cuts, too. As easy to use as a chef's knife, this versatile santoku, with its beautiful blonde handle color, makes a perfect addition to your kitchen collection.
Key Features:
- A slightly smaller version of the popular Asian-style all-purpose kitchen knife
- Proprietary VG-MAX cutting core is wear and corrosion resistant, strong, and very fine-grained to enable a razor-sharp, long-lasting 16° edge each side
- 34 layers of stainless Damascus cladding each side (68 total); support the core, add stain resistance, and help food release from the blade
- D-shaped blonde Pakkawood handles are comfortable for both left- and right-handed users; durable, beautiful, and won't harbor bacteria
- Full composite tang for light weight and perfect balance
- Handcrafted in Japan

Great guy!
5 /5
I had narrowed my choices between two high end brands but each had different options and features, and honestly, I was overwhelmed. I posed a question on Google and Curated popped up so I filled out a bit of information.
Admittedly I was snarky because I thought it would be a bot! Brad isn't a bot! LoL He's quite knowledgeable and helped me sort through the differences and found what best suited my needs. I'm very pleased with my experience with him and Curated and am looking forward to my next two purchases already chosen with his help. Thanks!|

This made shopping for cookware so much easier! Mike took into consideration my needs and made great recommendations. His finds were well though out and the explanations from Annette made it easy to follow on with questions to tailor the recommendations even further. I would definitely recommend and will probably use again in the future.
