Patrick Joseph – Santoku Knife (SKU: PJHMKK-108)

A Signature Santoku for Movement, Balance, and Everyday Excellence
This Santoku Knife by Patrick Joseph is designed for those who move with rhythm in the kitchen — combining refined geometry with elegant execution. Ideal for slicing, dicing, and vegetable prep, its shorter blade and subtle curve offer balance, agility, and precision for every cut. Handmade in Ireland, it brings together exotic hardwood, layered Japanese steel, and exceptional craftsmanship — a knife made for daily performance with the poise of a collector’s piece.

Material Excellence, Tailored by Hand
Honduran Rosewood Handle – Deep Tones and Naturally Oily Grain
Honduran Rosewood is a dense tropical hardwood prized for its rich reddish-brown hues, tight grain, and natural resistance to moisture. Durable and visually striking, it offers a warm, confident grip that performs beautifully in both wet and dry kitchen environments. Each handle is shaped and polished by hand to highlight the natural movement of colour and grain — no two are alike.

Black Liner – Structural Reinforcement with Understated Elegance
A black liner positioned between the tang and handle provides structural stability and elegant contrast. It strengthens the overall construction and adds a subtle layer of refinement beneath the deep tone of the Rosewood.

Suminagashi San Mai VG10 – Forged Steel with Flow and Strength
The blade is forged from San Mai steel, with a VG10 stainless core wrapped between two softer stainless layers. This creates a perfect balance between edge hardness, cutting control, and structural durability. The outer layers are etched to reveal a flowing Suminagashi pattern — wave-like lines formed by folding and layering steel of varying carbon content. This is not a printed finish but a forged expression of craftsmanship in every blade.

Key Attributes of Suminagashi San Mai VG10 Steel:
• Razor-sharp edge with lasting precision
• Triple-layer San Mai construction for strength and durability
• Excellent corrosion resistance for daily kitchen use
• Signature Suminagashi wave pattern – forged into the steel
• VG10 core – the professional standard in kitchen cutlery
