Niwaki Mini Santoku Knife
A beautifully balanced and beautifully simple Japanese kitchen knife with a white paper shirogami steel blade, wrapped in a softer jigane steel, with an octagonal walnut handle. This knife is a popular choice for Japanese chefs, as it sharpens quickly and easily, so is perfect not just for regular sharpening, but also for beginners.
If you’re after a truly Japanese experience, get this for its weight and feel.

– dry throroughly
– store individually
– wipe over with Camellia Oil if not using regularly
