Molybdenum stainless steel is a practical, high-performing alloy prized for its superior edge retention, sharpness, and stain resistance - an excellent choice for cooks who want Japanese blade performance with minimal maintenance. The santoku - meaning \"three virtues\" - handles meat, fish, and vegetables with equal confidence. Its flat-to-gently-curved edge suits both push cuts and light rocking, and the wide blade provides good knuckle clearance. At 180mm it is a compact, highly capable all-rounder suited to home and professional kitchens alike. The black pakka wood handle is durable, moisture-resistant, and comfortable in the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand wash only - never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDry immediately after each use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHone regularly with a ceramic or fine honing rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSharpen on Japanese water stones\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDo not use on frozen food or bones - the blade can chip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStore on a magnetic strip or in a knife block - avoid loose drawers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Japanny","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39598549008462,"sku":"D-5","price":142.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/products\/IMG_7454_1400x_9a095485-84ef-4932-a441-bae142dc2bdd.jpg?v=1640348574","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/iseya-molybdenum-santoku-180mm-black-pakka","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
