5160 Carbon Steel Santoku Knife with Rosewood Handle

SHAM KNIVES lists Kalispell, Montana, as its business address. The brand offers kitchen cutlery, outdoor knives, and decorative metalwork. Its catalog emphasizes hand finishing, patterned steel, and handles made with wood, horn, and resin.

This Santoku pairs a broad, polished 5160 carbon steel blade with an octagonal-style rosewood grip for vegetable prep, slicing, and chopping herbs.

When choosing a kitchen knife, compare the blade profile with the board space you have and the foods you prep most often. This style is intended for everyday cutting tasks such as slicing and dicing.

• The clean steel finish keeps the focus on the shape of the knife and the natural color of the wood.
• The faceted grip gives the handle a recognizable profile.

• Design – Santoku-style chef knife
• Blade material – 5160 carbon steel
• Handle – Octagonal-style rosewood

The blade uses 5160 carbon steel. The handle material is octagonal-style rosewood. Carbon steel benefits from prompt drying after use. The blade can take on a patina with regular handling or food preparation. Grain and color may vary in the natural handle material.

Hand-wash the blade and handle after prep and dry them immediately. Use a clean wood or food-safe plastic board and store the knife with the edge protected. Wash boards and utensils after raw meat or seafood before you use them with ready-to-eat foods.

Store the knife in a rack or with an edge cover after it is dry. Keep the blade separated from other metal utensils and keep the handle easy to reach.
