Our brand, Shisei, embodies the Japanese concept of "Magokoro," meaning "From our heart." It reflects our commitment to sincerity and genuine craftsmanship in every knife we carry. Our brand is crafted by highly skilled knifemakers with precision and artistry from all across Japan.
The Santoku knife, celebrated for its name's translation, 'three virtues,' stands out as an outstanding blade valued for its exceptional edge retention and versatility. Its capacity to handle slicing, chopping, and delicate tasks is owed to its multifunctional design. Crafted from Aogami Super high-carbon steel, renowned for its remarkable edge retention and sharpness, this knife belongs to the esteemed Blue Steel family of Japanese steels. Aogami Super is highly esteemed by both professional chefs and knife enthusiasts for its exceptional cutting performance and edge stability. However, it's essential to note that due to its high-carbon content, proper care and maintenance are crucial to prevent corrosion, as Aogami Super is not stainless steel.
