This type of knife is the most popular knife in most Japanese homes because of its facility.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">There are two parts of this knife (straight edge and curved edge). The straight edge is suitable for cutting vegetables, and the tip of a curved side is ideal for push cutting meats. SANTOKU is said to be an all-purpose knife that borrows a good part from each type of knife.

This type of knife contains a lot of carbon, so it gets rusty easily and fast. Also, it needs constant maintenance and care. (HRC61~63)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Shiro #1(White Steel #1) has most carbon in knives; therefore, it is hardest in the Shiro-kami series. However, the blade loses its toughness and sharpness when not taken care of properly. It could be challenging to sharpen it perfectly if you are not a trained whetter or chef.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">You must not cut bones, frozen foods because the blade might get chipped. This knife is for professional chefs who know how to handle and maintain it.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Shiro #2 (White steel #2) has lower carbon than the 1st. It is one of the favorite materials for making cooker knives because it is easy to handle and keep its sharpness. Also, the price is reasonable.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">One disadvantage is easy to get rusty, but compared to the 1st, you can whet it by yourself. We recommend this type of knife if you want to use it in your kitchen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-4474 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/bbf8fe7c2edb1b4c0c13ab2b1cdddcbb.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"242\" height=\"359\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-4474 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/603c7a695073ce42641f4875b500e5e4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"237\" height=\"359\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Made in Japan<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Free Shipping Worldwide<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100.026%; height: 175px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 29.7111%; height: 23px;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Knife Model<\/span><\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 82.5386%; height: 23px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sakai Shiro#2 Masashige Tokujo Santoku Cooker Knife(180 mm)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 29.7111%; height: 23px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Blade Material<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 82.5386%; height: 23px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Shiro #2(Yasukihagane carbon steel)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 29.7111%; height: 23px;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Blade Edge Shape<\/span><\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 82.5386%; height: 23px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Double Edge<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 29.7111%; height: 23px;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Handle Material<\/span><\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 82.5386%; height: 23px;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Magnolia\/Water Buffalo(black part)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">*This is a hand-made product and it might take 2 weeks to 4 weeks to restock it once it is sold out.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7339,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[42,41,149],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1469","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-sakai-cooker-knife","7":"product_cat-japanesecookerknives","8":"product_cat-japanese-life","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple","15":"add-to-wishlist-after_add_to_cart","16":"customify-col","17":"product-has-gallery"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/1469","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7339"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1469"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=1469"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=1469"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samuraimuseum.jp\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=1469"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
