Blenheim Forge Santoku

Knife Information

Originating and based in Peckham, South London; Blenheim Forge is the steel workshop of bladesmiths Jon Warshawsky, James Ross-Harris, and Richard Warner, in which they create hand-forged quality kitchen knives. Self-taught; knife making began as a hobby that James Ross-Harris and Jon Warshawsky cultivated in their back garden on a hand-made forge, fuelled by a blend of charcoal.

STEEL BREAKDOWN – Blue Paper steel is probably the most commonly used carbon steel in Japanese chef knives. It also is one of the highest hardness knife steels available when quenched and treated well. It is a reactive carbon steel, essentially white steel with added chromium, carbon, and tungsten. This results in a knife that does not rust or patina quite as easily as White Steel, and holds an edge for longer.
