Know before you buy
The Tsunami collection is a comprehensive set featuring a Chef's Knife, Cleaver, Santoku, Bread Knife, and Boning Knife, along with two additional essential blades to cover all primary kitchen prep tasks.
While the manufacturer indicates these knives are dishwasher safe, we strongly recommend hand-washing them. High-heat cycles and harsh detergents can dull the razor-sharp 15-degree edge and potentially damage the resin and wood handle over time.
Japanese VG10 steel is a high-carbon, cobalt-enriched alloy known for superior edge retention and hardness. It allows for a much thinner, sharper edge than standard kitchen knives, meaning you will need to sharpen them less frequently.
Yes, the ergonomic design of the Tsunami handle is shaped to provide a secure, natural grip. The blend of resin and burl wood is balanced to reduce hand fatigue during repetitive tasks like chopping or dicing.
The 67-layer construction involves folding high-quality steel over a VG10 core, which creates a blade that is both incredibly durable and flexible. This layering process prevents the blade from becoming brittle, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of professional-grade kitchen use.
To maintain the factory-honed 15-degree angle, you should use a whetstone or a high-quality pull-through sharpener designed for Japanese-style blades. Avoid using standard serrated knife sharpeners, as they can damage the fine edge of these knives.
