Massugu Lite series - 180mm santoku left handed version

This "Lite" series of knives from Massugu feature a very special bevel that is flat on the right side and perfectly tapered on the left. The left hand side is then finished with a highly polished 1mm bevel. This is a modern incarnation of the edge found on wa gyuto or wa santoku and is usually only found on far more expensive blades. The end result is a knife that is super sharp and easy to resharpen.

In the past it has been very difficult to find left handed versions of this superior bevel but the Massugu Lite range comes in both left and right handed versions. The good news being the left handed version is the same price.

The steel used is a high carbon blend enhanced with molybdenum and vanadium and hidden under black injection moulded NOV alloy (ABS & nylon) handles is a full tang for extra strength.

The Massugu lite series is an excellent entry level knife for those wanting a genuine Japanese blade at a very good price.

 



Please note:
This is a left handed knife and is also available in a right handed version.
