V10 Special
Some of you may have noticed the name "V10 Special" on Takamura knives. Unlike standard VG10 found on the market, Takamura V10 Special uses a different carbon content. We understand that Takamura is the only knife maker using this particular version of the steel. While we will skip the technical details, it offers even better corrosion resistance while delivering the signature Takamura cutting feel, often described as slicing through the air.
Caution
Takamura knives have a core metal sandwiched between a different steel type, so changing the bevel angle will alter the structure of the blade and it will lose its sharpness.

Santoku Knife
Santoku in Japanese transliterates as "three virtues" so they are otherwise known as "three purpose" knives. The three purposes which a santoku is meant to fulfill are cutting meat, vegetables, and fish. Its diminutive size and unique shape have made it very popular at home not only in Japan but in the United States as well and more and more home cooks are finding its versatility appealing without committing to a larger or more specialized knife.
