AUS10 at 60 HRC offers excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, making it one of the most capable stainless steels available at this price point. The hammered finish reduces food stick and adds a distinctive artisan aesthetic. At 180mm the santoku is the ideal all-rounder for vegetables, proteins, and herbs - the flat profile and sheepsfoot tip suit the push-cut and the chop equally well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only - never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHone regularly on a ceramic rod or leather strop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen on a whetstone (1000\/3000 grit recommended)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore on a magnetic strip or in a knife roll - avoid loose drawers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chef \u0026 a knife","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43933878780195,"sku":"SCsantokuhammered180","price":252.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/products\/image_3a5688a2-aab7-43a1-b83b-23b17e4d19f9.jpg?v=1677151567","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/yoshimune-santoku-damascus-hammered-180mm-aus10","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
