Each package has full insurance on every item.
The Hatsukokoro Ginga ATS-34 Nickel Damascus Santoku 180mm combines an ATS-34 stainless steel core with a striking nickel Damascus finish. Its versatile santoku profile is suited to everyday slicing, chopping and precise preparation of vegetables, boneless meat and fish.
The blade measures 49 mm tall, with a spine that tapers from 3.8 mm at the heel to 2.0 mm at the midpoint and 0.5 mm near the tip. Choose a finished knife with an Amboyna and buffalo horn handle, a rosewood and ebony handle, or a blade without a handle for your own fitting project.

- Amboyna / Buffalo horn — B: the second Amboyna and buffalo horn knife, shown in the darker photographs. Both Amboyna options are priced equally.
- Rosewood / Ebony: rosewood handle with an ebony ferrule.
