About the knife type: Santoku (chef's knife)

Santoku is a Japanese all-purpose knife. The name means 'three uses': meat, fish and vegetables.

The blade is slightly wider than on a gyuto or a Western chef's knife, so there is room for large vegetables. The tip gives the edge a larger contact surface, and the knife cuts well with a push cut.

About the steel: SGStrix

SGStrix or SPG Strix is a development of SG2 (Super Gold 2), made by Takefu Special Steel. The particle structure is very fine and strong, which makes it very sharp and easy to maintain and sharpen. The steel is very hard and holds its edge for a long time.
