{"type":"firestarter.listing","listing":{"id":"lst_3XbJBj5s","product_name":"Tokushu Knife Special Edition SLD Washiji Santoku","category":"Santoku Knife","description":"Overview\nWe are thrilled to introduce the Tokushu Knife Washiji SLD Santoku 165 mm, curated by the Tokushu Knife team. This agile, do-it-all blade marries Hitachi’s SLD semi-stainless tool steel—which we love for its blend of razor-sharpness, edge retention, durability, and easy sharpening—with stainless Washiji cladding whose subtle texture mimics traditional Shoji paper. Just check the choil shot: the lean, laser-like grind punches well above its price point. Finished with a 128 mm carbon-fiber octagonal handle, the knife feels feather-light (~172 g) yet perfectly balanced for everyday kitchen work.\nCommon Questions\nQ: Is this Santoku good for varied kitchen tasks?A: Absolutely. The 165 mm blade length, gentle belly, and generous height make it a versatile slicer, dicer, and mincer—ideal for vegetables, meats, and herbs.\nQ: How should I care for the SLD steel?A: SLD is semi-stainless, so wipe it dry right after use. A quick strop and occasional honing keep the edge screaming-sharp while a natural patina develops over time.\nQ: What makes this different from wood-handled Santokus?A: Our carbon-fiber handle sheds weight, resists water, and delivers modern durability—perfect for busy home or pro kitchens.\nSpecifications\n\n\nCore Steel: Hitachi SLD (high-carbon, semi-stainless)\n\nCladding Type: Stainless Washiji\n\nBlade Length: 165 mm\n\nSpine Thickness (Heel): ~2 mm\n\nSpine Thickness (Mid): ~2 mm\n\nBlade Height @ Heel: ~48mm\n\nOverall Length: ~303 mm\n\nWeight: ~172 g\n\nHandle Material: Carbon-fiber octagonal, 128 mm\n\nHardness (HRC): ~62\n","images":["https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0602/6720/0736/files/Tokushu_Knife_SLD_Washiji_Santoku_e83408dc-15cc-46cc-ae5c-78384f8796f1.jpg?v=1780918794","https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0602/6720/0736/files/Tokushu_Knife_SLD_Washiji_Santoku_Choil_shot_4d3ae466-29bd-49e1-b4ae-3eb78475c85c.jpg?v=1780918794","https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0602/6720/0736/files/Tokushu_Knife_SLD_Washiji_Santoku2_2ac3a6f5-d751-44ca-af78-f3df272b7351.jpg?v=1780918794"],"price":159,"currency":"USD","in_stock":true,"inventory_qty":9999,"dynamic_pricing":false,"listed_at":"2026-06-18T20:44:30.564Z"},"share_url":"https://firestarter.network/l/lst_3XbJBj5s","purchase":{"summary":"Live product listing on the Firestarter agent commerce network.
