The SanMai construction sandwiches a high carbon leaf spring steel core between soft iron cladding, giving the blade a reactive, hard-cutting edge with a tough, forgiving body. The Nashiji etched finish reduces food adhesion and gives the blade a beautiful, textured appearance. The amboyna and rosewood handle is a premium combination - amboyna is one of the world's most prized figured woods. The rosewood saya is included, making this a complete package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare and Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only - never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after use - carbon steel core will rust if left wet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply a light coat of food-safe oil if storing long-term\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHone on a leather strop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen on whetstones (1000\/3000 grit recommended)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in the included saya or on a magnetic rack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chef \u0026 a knife","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46787128033571,"sku":"SANMAIBUNKANASHIJI","price":273.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/files\/Screenshot2023-10-16at6.57.56pm.png?v=1697443341","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/sanmai-bunka-175mm-nashiji-amboyna-rosewood-saya","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
