Hand Forged Japanese - Aogami Blue Paper Steel (was £120)

Our classic hand-forged Japanese Santoku with a handle made from recycled waste plastic is a great all rounder in the kitchen perfect for prepping fruit, vegetables or trimming meat and poultry, the perfect gift for any foodie.

The blade is made In Seiki Gifu Japan from Aogami High Carbon Blue Paper Steel  and is hardened to a Rockwell rating of HRC 64.

The handles are made from recycled broken fish boxes collected directly through our Scottish Harbour collection programme. The food grade boxes are used in the harbour by fishermen, when landing there catch and if broken, sent to landfill. 

We collect, wash and shred each box in house. Then we mould the shredded plastic into the hands for our knives. Each handle has a marbling pattern from the mix of waste plastic which is difficult to predict making each piece unique.

Your new knife will arrive packaged in an Ocean Kitchen gift box with an information card and tissue wrapping.

Each knife is handmade please allow 4 working days for dispatch, there may be some colour variation from the knife shown due to the handmade nature of this product.
