Preparing delicious meals starts with taking wholesome ingredients and using the best tools such as a high quality chefs knife to make every meal into something special. From dicing, slicing and chopping fresh produce from a farmers market to carving a roast chicken straight from the oven, even the simplest tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional. Forged and hammered with 46 layers of Damascus steel with a VG-10 Core, the hammered texture of the blade eliminates friction and keeps food from sticking to the blade. Our VG-10 Hammered Damascus Santoku Chef Knife is forged with a curved blade that smoothly rocks back and forth with an extended tip for quick chopping. VG-10 is a Japanese stainless steel that is often utilized in high end Japanese cutlery. It has a hardness, or a HRC level (60), that exceeds that of most other stainless steel cutlery on the market. Its exceptional hardness means that the cutting edge can be constructed thinner, and therefore sharper, allowing the blade to seamlessly cut through almost any ingredient placed in front of it. ## Features - Grade: Damascus / Edge Angle: Double Edged - Knife Style: Santoku - Handle Shape: Octagonal / HRC: 60 - Material: VG-10 Stainless Steel / Handle Material: Ambrosia Handle - Saya Cover: Magnolia Wood ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00DFXOG7M | | Best Sellers Rank | #255,779 in Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Kitchen ) #115 in Santoku Knives | | Blade Color | Silver | | Blade Edge | Plain | | Blade Material Type | Stainless steel (VG-10) | | BladeLength | 7 Inches | | Brand Name | Yoshihiro | | Color | Ambrosia Handle | | Construction Type | Forged | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (71) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00700987965742 | | Handle Material | Ambrosia | | Is the item dishwasher safe? | No | | Item Length | 7 Inches | | Item Weight | 0.26 Pounds | | Manufacturer | YOSHIHIRO | | Manufacturer Part Number | NSSA180MH2 | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Number | VG-10 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Size | 7 بوءة | | UPC | 700987965742 | ## Product Details - **Blade edge:** Plain - **Blade material:** Stainless steel (VG-10) - **Brand:** Yoshihiro - **Colour:** Ambrosia Handle - **Handle material:** Ambrosia ## Images ![Yoshihiro VG-10 46 Layers Hammered Damascus Santoku Japanese Multipurpose Knife (7'' (180mm)) (Ambrosia Handle) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51fubELXttL.jpg) ## Frequently Bought Together - Yoshihiro VG10 46 Layers Hammered Damascus Santoku Japanese Multipurpose Chef Knife (Ambrosia Handle) - Yoshihiro 100% Pure Tsubaki Japanese Knife Maintenance Oil 3.4oz(100ml) with Complimentary Sabitori Rust Eraser and Microfiber Cloth - Yoshihiro 46 Layers Hammered Damascus Gyuto Chef Knife and Petty Utility Knife SET (Gyuto 8.25'' (210mm) & Petty 6'' (150mm), Ambrosia Handle) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/256408839-yoshihiro-vg-10-46-layers-hammered-damascus-santoku-japanese-multipurpose](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/256408839-yoshihiro-vg-10-46-layers-hammered-damascus-santoku-japanese-multipurpose) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-13*
