My folks' birthdays are coming up, and they've been wanting a good Santoku knife with indentations.
So far, the only two I've found was from Jantz, but they've discontinued theirs, and Texas Knife. The Tex Knives are from AUS-8 steel, and I was looking for a little better quality/budget than 15$ for a blade.. Around 50-120$ will probably get a far better blade.
Do you guys know a source of these style blades?
I checked some European sites and the big auction one, but no luck.. A lot of Santoku-style, but not with indentations, which is what they want.
If you can help me out, I promise to post pics, and write your name on the birthdaycards along with me and the missus :p
-Thanks, SveinD-
Edit: I just need the blade, handle and stuff I will do myself ;)
I bought a few from Jantz Supply in Davis Oklahoma several years ago I thought they were quality knives and they are nice people to deal with. I think they have an online Catalog you can look at or at least get a contact # and they will send you a catalog free.
Check out Premium Knife Supply on flea bay.
Milehi101, Jantz have discontinued theirs..
Clarence, I was looking for a high-end blade, but maybe there just are none :p
give Sheffield supply.com a try they sell a lot of different blanks
there phone number is 386-775-6453 and there in fl.
James, thanks for the tip, but no luck :p
try knifekits.com they have an aus8 blade ready for handles
Thanks, but I was looking for a more high-end blade :)
If you want high end then you should look at the vg-10 chefs blades at jantz.
Yep, but they have only one with grooves/indentations, and that one's discontinued..
I'm sure I have checked almost everywhere, and there are no-one on the Internet that sells that kind of blade..
Guess I'm gonna have to go for one without the grooves..
