{"product_id":"sashimi-knife","title":"Kasumi Damascus Sashimi Knife","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eThe Tradition of making Damascus pattern knives began in the Seki region of Japan in the 13th century. 21 Generations later, the Sumikama Family are still producing damascus pattern knives to the exacting standards expected by the Imperial warlords of yesteryear. Kasumi knives are forged from 33 layers of Stainless Steel. The middle layer, which acts as the cutting edge, is made from V-Gold No.10 Stainless Steel; a high quaility steel developed exclusively for knives. Each Kasumi knife black is a high carbon Stainless Steel with cobalt, maganese, molybdenum and vanadium for added durability and ease of sharpening. The addition of cobalt to this steel requires special tempering in order to maximise the full benefit of this steel. Sumikama's technique for this special tempering is a closely guarded secret. Each Kasumi knife has a laminated Japanese Pakka wood handle secured with Stainless Steel rivets. Each knife is expertly sharpened to a razor finish, making Kasumi knives the sharpest knife out of the box. A beautiful knife that will provide a lifetime of use and the ultimate in performance.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVG-10 Stainless steel core with beautiful Damascus stainless exterior.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade is made from thirty-three layers of carbon steel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTradition Japanese style resin impregnated laminated pakka wood handle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble stainless steel riveted handle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe original East meets West style cooks knife.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModern, beautiful knives merged with the best of Japanese tradition to provide sensational performance metrics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJapanese Damascus or \"Sumikama\" Steel blade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDamascus stabilizes the hard core which provide superior edge retention.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresented in a signature Kasumi box.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash recommended.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan..\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kasumi","offers":[{"title":"21cm","offer_id":51552711475487,"sku":"SH-78217","price":469.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"24cm","offer_id":51552711409951,"sku":"SH-78218","price":499.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"30cm","offer_id":51552711442719,"sku":"SH-78220","price":599.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/7856\/6687\/files\/SH-78217--1_c424f752-1837-406a-9f36-29495cef05e9.jpg?v=1788110178","url":"https:\/\/shop.hestianco.com\/products\/sashimi-knife","provider":"Hestia \u0026 Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
